It would be nice to have some kind of indication, of what the color would be in which position of the screen. I got the overall idea, but unless you know the color hues by heart, you're left guessing :D Well done finishing a playable game!

Verry difficult but the idea is really good, and the art was fun and unique

Submitted

Very cool mechanic!

Had a little trouble getting the exact colour as the light, especially the different shades of green

Submitted

Although is bit difficult, I really find this gameplay feature really cool. I would definitely like to see it as part of some other full game.  Nice work, keep it coming. :)

This was very difficult, because I tried to determine the pattern of the helicopter coming in with the color it would be when it passes and I wasnt able to figure it out. I do love how you set up a range of colors based on the mouse position. (I don't know how to do that!)

In fact it's not really a range of color, X axis change the green composant and Y axis change the red one.

Interesting idea. A tutorial to figure how to play would be nice.

Thanks for your feedback! I add a small explanation on the description

Quite original idea, kinda remind me to hole in the wall game show. i have a couple of complain though,

first it move too quickly,i think if the heli light on the bg is the same as the next heli pass it would be better

second, its a bit hard to know how the light control works

but otherwise, its a very good concept, and really cool for a first game. i hope you'll keep creating in the future

Developer

Thanks for your feedback! At the beginning the light didn't change between the 2 travel and it was really easy. But you're right, it's a bit hard to understand how it works

I really loved the idea behind this game. I think it has a lot of potential and I think using the mouse and field of the screen as the way to control the colour is really innovative so really well done since I think you said it's your first game. I would have been able to do better if there was a clearer way to know where you need to go on the screen to get the colour you want. I never managed to get 2 in a row haha.

Developer

Thanks a lot for your feedback ! Yes I know it's a bit hard to play, I think my best score is only 4 and I know where to find the right color ah ah
