Great example of setting up a few, simple mechanics that can result in a myriad of environmental puzzles. Definitely “easy to play, hard to master,” which is ideal, but with a lot of gameplay diversity baked in. Excited to see this concept fleshed out further with more level layouts. Impressive design :)

A short but great puzzle platformer, and one of the finest games I've played in the jam.
I want to applaud the team for creating this game. Save for some hiccups, I had an overall great time with it, with surprising challenges that were not difficult to overcome nor too simplistic to be boring.
I wondered for a while what did this have to do with the theme of the jam, but when I realized I could mix colors together, it all made sense. Mixing and matching skills was genius, and it really elevated the experience to me.
It's a fantastic entry, doing what it's set to do after it's two-day-development period. It outstand from other games on this genre, it's visually memorable and it puts great ideas on the table. What a fantastic, colorful experience! 👍

Wow, thank you very much for your comment! I truly appreciate your words and I am very glad that you enjoyed this little game so much! :D
Thank you very much for the feedback! :D I really appreciate it! As it comes to controller support, I usually prefer a controller myself so it had to be in there. XD
As for the few frustrating jump. I believe in hindsight that came from me trying to make it difficult but as I have been testing the game over and over I knew the ins and outs. I will keep it in mind for the future! Thank you! :D
Thank you for the feedback!
- Yes, the music should've been togglable but we ran into a problem with the title theme when we did this, so only the sfx is available.
- In terms of controls, the web version can have some latency with controls, so if you want to be able to get super accurate timings, I recommend the downloadable versions (Windows, MacOS).
- We worked quite hard to make nice puzzles, I'm glad you had fun with them!
