Whole gameplay is based on 16x16 grid. One could say that whole game's resolution is 16x16 :)

pretty much easy when you keep spamming space and up, when you're up enogh you can go for coins and then just spam to go up again. would be good if there was a penalty for trying to move in direction when in bad color to prevent from moving up so easily. otherwise really cool idea

9 Lives in washing mashineYes its easy to just spam space and up I agree. It was the issue with previous version. But keep in mind that the goal of the game isn't just to survive - its go get highest score possible within given timeframe! (You can brag about it among friends!)
Spamming space and up isn't the best tactic for this goal, as far as I know.
The penalty is applied when you don't use different color each time reducing combo - crucial part of high scores.
Allowing player to move in every direction would also allow to just press arrow up and go and would also introduce "missclick" issue for those who try to keep up combo
That being said we are aware of this method and I also consider it somewhat of a flaw. It would be fun excercise to come up with a solution for this problem.
Thanks for feedback!
Wow it really speeds up hah. Fun gameplay and good challenge. Cycling through the colors is a bit more tedious than having a button to select a color but It fits the theme B) Great job!

Laser hideA great game, though I'm not very good at it lol. I've played it a couple times now and will probably come back to play it a few more times :)

The Fortune ChannelWAY Fun. I love that I can figure it out without reading the directions. It's the kind of game that I want to start over after I'm done. I would love to play this with game pad support, using bumpers to change colors.

Season SwapThis is a pretty cool little game. With a little polish on the controls I think it could be really fun. It took me a moment to realize that I wanted to be moving up basically at all times, I thought it was bugged at first because I would move sideways and instantly lose. Once I figure out that the board moves down I played it for a while and found it very entertaining. Great job!
