I enjoyed this game but it was a little frustrating because I couldn't pick up the items after solving the puzzles :( I loved the idea and the art is nice!

I enjoyed this short journey with Luna as she returned color to the world. I do wish that the game wouldn't freeze in certain places, such as the beach person or the miner girl. I cannot pick up the items after I solved the puzzle, rendering it impossible to complete. Still, good work!
Hey and thanks! Originally you had to solve the fountain to be able to mix but my beta tester (that is my wife and kids) also tried mixing before solving that and felt it was weird how it was locked behind the fountain. So I ended up keeping the puzzle as a sort of hint but if you figure it out on your own that'll work as well =)
Nice adventure game, a bit easy but works fine and fun. Really liked the hand drawing graphics and the music. Congrats!
Very nice graphics adventure with an interesting innovation on the usage of those colors :-)
I didn't understand that you can mix the colors until I read it in a message below, but after that I managed to play it until the end :-)
Unique concept and pretty art :)
Couldn't complete unfortunately due to not being able to pick up the pickaxe, but overall a relaxing, fun game!
I thought it was a wonderful entry and a clever concept. The watercolory art style made it feel like I was interacting with a magical children's book. Maybe one piece of feedback is that at one point I didn't read some instructions right away (I think it was on how to mix the colors), and the text went away on its own. So I was stuck for a little bit until I figured it out on my own. Maybe let the player click through those prompts so they can read at their own pace. But in any case, this was great, nicely done!
I loved it- amazing graphics, cute concept and the mechanic was pretty easy to grasp.
I hit a bug where I didn’t get the axe after helping the miner; although luckily I took a peak at your source code and found a way to tweak it without replaying.
I love your game. Especially with the idea of mixing colours and returning colours to nature. This is actually powerful and beautiful. Reminds me of the famous Japanese title “Okami” (the god of the sun). Excellent work!
Very unique idea. It pleasantly reminded me the 1990's LOOM game where the game play was all about tunes.
Great job. I really like the hand drawn art and watercolor style. The painting puzzles were intuitive and fun. The game seemed to end quickly. I would have gladly played for longer.
Really delightful experience :) I enjoyed every second of it
The gameplay mechanic is so simple yet so unique, awesome idea to use colors like that. I was pleasantly surprised when I realized I could mix colors (I figured it out before the fountain). The artwork and soundtrack are absolutely incredible as well. Hope your game gets more plays, totally deserves the attention. I'll share it with my friends :)
Best game I've played in this jam so far, it's really nice! Art is great but I especially like the music. Great job!
Nice game. You've got the look and feel down great. I breezed through the puzzles quite easily, but I enjoyed seeing the watercolour style art each time I coloured something in. I also seemed to be able to mix colours before the game "unlocked" the ability at the fountains? That is unless the voice was just advising me.
Thanks for taking the time to play and comment!
At first the mixing "ability" was locked behind the fountain-puzzle but my beta tester felt it was weird so I changed it so that if you discover that you can mix before solving the fountain it's all good, otherwise the fountain can work more as a hint of you will.
Lovely game! Really nice aesthetics and cool idea. I was going to say that I had some issues but I just read that you can mix more than two colors hah. Maybe you could add some glow to the items you can pick up (so players don't get upset/worried about not getting the pickaxe, for example).
The artistic part is very nice, the story is beautiful, I would think to make the gameplay more interesting
Like the drawing style, idea, and story. Gameplay was good, but couldn't get past that wooden bridge (are you supposed to be able to pick up the pickaxe in the mine? might've been a glitch). Maybe include hints?
