Keep It (on) ALive by Scubes 3.14

[raw]
made by Scubes 3.14 for Ludum Dare 46 (JAM)

There comes a time in every programmer's life when she/he has to make all the art herself/himself. This is Keep it (on) Alive where the objectives are simple:

(Keep (it) alive[green] , But keep (that) dead[red]) && ( (it) and (alive) on (Here)[Blue])

Got that? Me neither. But you learn fast! To make it even more simpler, let me introduce a new tile: The SWAP[white]' Remember the objectives? When you SWAP is pressed down, just swap (that) and (it) Got that? Of course, maybe!

The game was great! maybe it's partly because I like puzzles.
Although it was hard to see anything at first. Maybe don't spam the word "Alive" Across the screen next time.
at first it wasn't clear what you were supposed to do, but once you get it, its really fun!

~This game might be good, but I did not understand how to play :/~ Scratch that, I just got it, going to play

Additionally, in it says that button to swap character is `c` when in reality it's `z`.

Edit:
While I couldn't finish it (at least for now - I'll be back!) I'm amending my score for this fantastic puzzle game.

Great spin on topic!

i was quite dazzled by the visual, and really wanted to play longer because the style is just so cool.

but like @leniwabula mentioned, i couldn't figure out how to play! and yea, it's actually z to swap.

Actually a neat puzzle once you figure it out! Although for the instructions on the itch.io page, it probably should say "z" to swap character, that confused me for a bit! I appreciate the programmer art :)
