How does you game fit the theme?
You can change colors of world(in real world you can't :)

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Code I have written alone. I took all sprites from asset store except logo and start background and took music from asset store. Black platforms I recolor from white platforms from Brackeys's pack with help of Brackeys's UPA Toolkit.

Nice game! Cute characters.

Developer

Hi. Thank you for your reply. From gameplay, what you liked the most?

Submitted

Love the character sprites and the levels aren't too difficult nor too easy just perfect! 

Except level 4 was kind of confusing since I didn't see the holes on the wooden walls?

Overall really fun game! ^^b

I loved this game it was fun and had a cool challenge. Levels were fun! I would like play this game more it just needs some more levels.

Developer

Hi. I'm glad you liked my game. Yeah, my game is short, but I want to make it on Android platform, make more levels and create it in Play Market.

Nice concept, and the little troll at the end was funny. My only complaint is that it felt a bit arbitrary to be able to traverse some brown platforms and not others. I know you just switched their direction, but if you put yourself in an average player's shoes, it's not obvious at all. Also, you may think your level design was bad, but if you don't add a 3rd color or another mechanic, there's not much else to do, so it's fine like this. Finally, you shouldn't apologise. You can say that you're a beginner, you can explain you didn't have time to fix this or that, but don't apologise. We all had to begin somewhere, if you're not proud of your game, at least realise that this is YOUR game, nobody is entitled to anything from it, you have the right to make games with flaws, or bad games, because it's inevitable anyway, it happens to all of us.

Hi. I'm glad you liked my game. I apologised, because I thought, that my mechanic is static(nothing new). But, I'm really proud of my game, because it's my first finished game and all my repliers liked my game, so it's good success for beginner. Thank you for advice.

I like the game, 

the levels are actually nice, I think having the player be part of the black and white world would have worked better instead of the used sprites, but that's just me, the switch colors could make for a lot of good puzzles especially if you add more than just two.

I liked the fakeout at the end level 😂

with more levels and some difficulty curve that game would be really nice,

one final thing to consider is the controls, using just WAD and E makes it hard to move and change colours at the same time,  so switching controls to also use arrow keys or adding an extra switch button would be nice,

Good job!

Developer

I'm glad you liked me game. Sorry about controls. I made them comfortable for me.

Enjoyed your game ! Had fun playing it !

Hi. Thank you very much for rating! What you liked the most?

Submitted

The level designing is the most difficult part in your game and you did it very well !! That makes the player to switch color everytime ! The music was also of very good choice

Submitted

Hahaha nice game, the only problem is it is too easy

Developer

Hi. Thank you for rating. I know that it too easy, sorry, I'm bad in level designing)

Submitted

Rated !!! can you help me rate mine too? I would really appreciate it!, Thanks!
here's mine: https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-7/rate/1415313

Hi. Thanks for rate. Ok. But can you say did you like it and does it have some minuses?

Submitted (1 edit)

Yes I liked it, the game is fun, just doesn't know if it was more a platformer game or a puzzle game, it seems like the line is blurry, you need to know what you want to make before making it, so you know what level design you need to make and also could turn down the volume a bit in default, overall it's a nice game!, 

Submitted

This was a fun concept for the platformer. The levels were pretty fun, challenging but not too hard. 

I just had 2 suggestions. changing the background using E while jumping and moving was a bit tough, I'd love to use the mouse button.  

Second, with the title being black and white, I'd love to see you fully embrace that and go full monochrome with the colors.

Thank you so much for sharing your game!

Hi. Thank you for reply. Sorry for some inconvenience. I'm glad you liked my game.

Submitted

it was wonderful. Thank you. 

Submitted

Hiii, i liked it: I think it's well designed: feels nice to play, it's funny in certain moments and it's satisfying to complete it.

A good tactic I used to complete it is the after-image strategy ;D 

Developer(+1)

Hi. Thank you for reply. That's my first completed game).  I want to make it on Android platform, make new levels and post in Play Market. If it is good idea pls reply: "+".

Submitted

Experimenting and trying is always a good idea! c:

Developer(+1)

Yeah.

And what does "after-image strategy" mean?

Submitted

It is the phenomenon  you get after you stare at one color for a long time and when you stop doing it and look at its complementary color you get the so called after-image.

Thank you for explaining.
