good job on the simple, responsive controls! it would be cool to start with 2 colors and to get the hang of the game and introduce the availability/need for new mixes gradually so as not to overwhelm an uh, 'chromatically challenged' player like myself ๐Ÿ˜ต a fun idea overall by forging your path using the colors you mix. plus the menu was really stylish

Developer

Oh! Great idea ๐Ÿ˜ฏ

That could fit great in a tutorial. First island of the tutorial with only cyan, yellow and green doing teal and lime. I'll note that ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ

I was also thinking in how could I do an alternative version for colorblind players without losing the educative part.

Thanks for your feedback! ^-^/

Your game is cute! The movement feels somewhat awkward not being tied to cells. Also it took me a while to understand that the main menu had more than just "how to play" but otherwise it's great!

Developer

Yeah, the menu thing was the part I was more worried about ๐Ÿ˜…
The movement acting weird is cause didn't used hitboxes and I didn't allowed the diagonal movement to avoid bugs. The problem of didn't have enought time XD

I'm glad you like it :D

Nice idea and execution! The menus were so cute :)

Developer

Thank you, I'm glad that you like it :D
Its not the genre I am used to do in games, I usually like to do puzzle games.

A creative way to use the theme and a fun mechanic. Defiantly had to concentrate on this one but very fun. It would be great if you could check out my game Harvest Hustle

Developer

Glad you like it and sure thing, I'll try it ^-^

Really fun mechanic, makes me want to learn more about colors.

Developer

Glad you like it! ๐Ÿ˜„

I was planning on doing a small tutorial instead of a guide  and showing the name of the color you have but run out of time.

Submitted

The mechanic is good but requiers a lot of IQ haha.

Good job.

Developer

Yeah, when my friends tested the pre-release. For some of them was kinda hard cause they're not used to work with colors.
If i do a new version after the Jam I should probably add a option to see a color wheel and a guide.

Thanks for trying my game! ^-^

Gameplay's fun, the art is adorable, and the menu looks really nice as well. Great job!

Developer

Thanky you, I'm glad that you like it ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

I was kinda worried at the beggining that people might not be able to travel on the menu cause didn't try  wasd or arrow keys XD
