I found this rather humorous, and bloody tricky. Very gamy, feels good to play. Solid entry.

I really like the animation and the concept of this game. Even though the gameplay is simple, it feels quite polished. One of my favourites so far! :)

This game is well made and a great idea, port to android, make a million dollars, done.

Very well done! I like the idea and the execution is good, though I would have hoped that it would automatically disregard colors that are too close to each other. Gray, white and marin don't mix well.
I like the music!

Brilliant! Starts easy enough but soon gets quite difficult.

Neat concept! The graphics are very clean and the style is perfect.
I wish it were more difficult, or got more difficult faster.

Very Nice :D The only thing I don't like is that you lose if you pick the wrong color. Other than that, it is a very nice entry.

Nice presentation, graphics and animation. The gameplay is a bit too reduced for me (a kind of quizz).
