Minimalism by hypp
In a newly created universe
the colors float around
freely. Bring order to chaos!
Controls: Arrows
Well, just like last time I didn't really have time...
Anyway, at least I completed something!!!
And the music turned out quite mysterious.
To start the game, click in the game window and press space.
Tips and Tricks:
* Collect all colors to see the end screen
Troubleshooting:
* I have tested it on OSX and Windows, it should work on Linux
* On OSX you might have to use a different Java version
* On Windows you might have to update your graphics driver

I encounterd a moment, where one triangle was outside the playfield (on the right), so I had to wait a moment, before I was able to collect it. Its not tragic, but could be a bit frustrating if a triangle would fly right next to the edge for a long time.
I was thinking "Upgrade my magnet radius", but the controls were good for me, so didn't have great problems. Well a magnet would have kind of broken the game, because you would end it too quickly.
The RGB idea was cool, but you should either put some green in the upper part of the image or create more levels, because the green seemed to have no effect until I got to the bottom of the playfield.
Cool concept, good job!:p
Think the game elements are literally minimal. Actually they are way too tiny.
I don't quite get the setting at all. I failed to get a meaning out of it.
Either way, at the end I have created a beautiful universe.
The idea was nice, would have been interesting to have a the ability to make universes with so much of a certain colour. Like, I don't want any blue and only a little bit of green, let's see how it comes out.
It was interesting however and I loved how the stars seemed to twinkle at the end. Good work!
Also, thank you very much for commenting on my game!
Would have liked more variety and levels.
Nice transitions in visibility and that overview in the end.
I found the music very funny, well done there.
Now, the bounding boxes felt too small, more than once I would run over a color without anything happening. There's also some contrast issues, blue on black is hard to differentiate.
