A color question

I have a question for the limitation of the 4 colors. Are black and white in this situation colors or non-colors?
Because if not, so you could use 4 regular colors AND black and white as an addition?

And have these colors to be unlit or could they have a standard shading with reflections?

Hey NORRIMO the description says that you should use a color palette similar to the gameboy which uses a 2-bit (4 shades of "gray" {light to very dark olive green}) see wikipedia. I guess adding black and white are two more colors. But on the other hand it also depends on the people participating in the jam and they rate it, so if they think black and white are additional colors they might let that influence the evaluation. Nonetheless gamejams are all about fun, so don't hassle to much, follow your idea and start jammin'!

Ok, thanks boesh for the advice. I will try it at first with the 4 colors and see how far I can come with it. :)
