Haha I like the shadows and art.

The idea is interesting, but also to polish and polish:

  • if you come up in a colored wall (for example, red), but a different color (white) is chosen, you do not pass, while if you choose the right one (red), you need to move away from the wall in order to still pass;
  • if you change the color while on a colored wall, then everything is stuck, even if you switch to the correct color;
  • you get stuck in the store, I don't know how to get away from it after the purchase;
  • enemies will strike exactly, it is easier to run away from them than to fight;
  • when you restart, the living standards are replenished completely, bought a bunch in the store, got stuck, restart and you have full lives (newly purchased ones too);
  • but on the boss I had only 3 lives, although I came there from 7-8.
  • the music is not good in my opinion;
  • it is not clear where the exit to another level is (where you rest against the edge of the screen, and somewhere you pass);

All this makes it difficult to enjoy the game.

Good luck in development =)

as I've said before  all of these were meant to or were added after beta testing but during the second export the files corrupted so I couldn't fix it(we still had 5 hours left) but anyways thanks for the feedback. I am going to remake this game so I will keep this in mind

the music is insane and I like it, I was a little confused of what to do in the second room, I read your comment bellow and now I got it, nice entry! 

Developer

Nice! I can tell you all put some effort into this! Great work! My biggest gripe is probably the collisions. Too often I got stuck in walls. I like the idea of switching the colors around to get to certain areas, although I wish I could just collect and keep colors instead of starting each new level with no colors. I got to the little room where there are a ton of suits of armor guys but Idk how you are supposed to beat them!? One suggestion I would say is to use knockback when I hit an enemy. As it is now, I can hit them with my paintbrush but they are still in full charge towards me!

Overall keep it up! The most fun I had was the level with red, blue, yellow, green and purple. The reason being I just tried to run as fast from one end to the other without stopping while changing colors as I got close to the bricks! haha. Great work though! :D

I can understand the problems and I knew they were there but what happened is the files other than the first exe one  got corrupted so I couldn't fix it. But anyways thanks for the feedback I will keep that in mind for my next gamejam game.

I like the effort put into the details and your game idea of switching colors sounds interesting! However, I got stuck at the area with 2nd treasure chest, am I supposed to jump or do something over the wall with the lava cracks? Hitting it didn't seem to work. Looking forward to see more :)

Thank you for the feedback and also what you're meant to do is switch colours to red to go back through the switch to orange to get through the next wall

I see. How to switch colors though? Would be helpful to put some instructions in your game page and control keys or a tutorial embedded in you game :)
