Neat game. Tight control with a strong mechanism. Progression of lava is a way better idea that succession of level. Lots of particles. The succession of timed block are a little bit annoying, there force you to redo the same thing again, even when you're doing good. Other than that nothing to say except Congratulation that's a great game.

Well worked out concept. Simple but very fun to play and make your way up.

The mechanic of dying for the right color is well done!

The visuals are simple but polished. The particle effects give it something extra.

Smooth controls and I like that there are checkpoints :D!

Enjoyed it, work well done!

The ambiance is spot on, the game is very beautiful! Fun and unique idea and you executed it well. Since you have really nice looking particle effects already, it would be nice if the player sprite emitted some extra shimmering when they pass through a transparent block so you really feel like you're impacting the world. This is nothing that impedes on the gameplay and the color change on the sprite is enough to get the point across, just an idea! Super well done and great usage of the theme, thanks a ton for sharing :)

Interesting idea! A little bit frustrating when the red blocks reset. Good job on polish as well.

Would really appreciate if you checked out my game :)
