Couldn't pass level 5 and I almost feel like it's a bug. Are red+yellow supposed to be prioritized as a color combo over red+blue like that? 'cause that's why I had trouble; I was thinking you need to make a bunch of them purple, then make the next row purple, but that second row ended up orange.

Speaking of which! My only real complaint is that your purple didn't really look very purple, and your orange didn't really look very orange. Normally that wouldn't be such a bad thing, but it matters a lot more in a game about combining colors, and I got confused by it for a second there.

Overall: neat little game mechanic! I liked.

@thegoofromspace I used the color palette of the game boy color, also noticed that the secondary colors have gotten a little off. In the future I'll add new levels and a new color palette.
Thanks for the comment!

Should maybe needed some more easy levels to clean the difficulty curve, or maybe Im just bad a this ^^

Still fun game, good job :)

Enjoyed this game a lot. I don't think it should have more explanation.

Fun game but it deserve more work on leveldesign. Level 3 was really interesting but after that, level 4 and 5 feels like a random filled level. Well I must confess I also did the same when I was working on "rainbow jail" on a previous LD and I regreted it afterward. Still a nice puzzle, congrats !

@Benjamin you're right, in the future I will add more elaborate levels.
Thanks for commenting!

Nice work!
The color mixing mechanic is nice, but thb I solved the last two levels by try and error rather than thinking ;)

A clever little puzzle game :) The difficulty curve is rather well done and I thought the concepts were pretty well explained through the levels, which is always nicer than having a separate tutorial. The graphics are simple, but effective, as are the sound effects. It's a bit of a shame there isn't any music, but otherwise very well done!

Very nice. I like. One of the few puzzle games I've seen that really pulled it off.

nice entry.

I was a somewhat confused with the mechanics... there was one part in which I pushed the ball up but it joined the one in the left, and it kept doing it. If it was intended, it would be nice to see in-game explanations of this behaviors.

The graphics and audio suited the game well.

Cool puzzle mechanic, and I like how you let the player experiment in order to figure out how things work. The last 2 levels did cause me to sort of just move around randomly, as they were so overloaded with orbs.
Adjusting the colors a bit could make it easier to memorize how different combinations will act.
Nicely done!

Great little puzzle game with an interesting mechanic!

As someone else mentioned I found the colour palette a bit hard to read, especially for the secondary colours, but other than that it was pretty good!

LOVED IT! Very simple concept that created a lot of depth with your clever level design. This game could have easily have been frustrating, but I always felt like the game was fair and I didn't ever get completely stuck. I had a lot of 'Ah ha!' moments playing this game. Great job! Thank you so much for making it!
