Really cool game! I like how the color changes when you jump and you also included a timer for speedrunning!

I really like the game mechanics, and the art used in this game is ok because they are standing out, I had fun playing the game, well done D. Would you mind trying out my game and rating it according :).

Thank you. I'll try yours.

I love the vibe of the game. It worked well with the theme and I had a really good time playing. I feel I was on the slow side of finishing due to my laptop being a little laggy right now, but that didn't stop me from having a blast. Good game!

Developer

Thank you for playing and having fun!

:D

Excellent implementation of the theme provided, I had a similar idea for the game but made it more like tetris. Great music, sfx , animation and offcourse the mechanics are on point. Great job ;D

Thank you.

Brilliant implementation of the theme, great music and sound feedback, very clever level design which i am a bit jealous about!! Kudos m8!

Developer

Thank you. I didn't think the level design was good, but glad you enjoyed!

I always think the best game jam entries are the ones that manage to get a simple concept that fits the theme and implement it well. This game is a great example. Congrats. It's fun, well thought of and implemented.

Developer

Thank you. Yes this is why I went with simplicity.

:D

Wow nice game - would be perfect as a tutorail for the finished one I beat it in 1:06^^
If you continue to work on it I would tweak the controlls just a little bit - you move pretty fast and landing on the small blocks isn't that easy to controll - maybe also a variable jump for longer or shorter hops

Developer

Thank you for enjoying this and for your feedback.

:D

In its simplicity this game is extremely fun!!
Good job!

Fun/Mechanics

In this puzzle game, you swap colors by jumping and you can only interact with platforms of the same color. I think this is a fun concept and I think having the switch mechanics be tied to jumping was a good idea. This forces the player to think about when and where they jump.

If you were to expand on this premise, I think you could add more mechanics that tie in with the color switch idea. Maybe like platforms that change colors when an enemy touches it or something, just as an example. More mechanics in addition to the enemies you have would add more variety to the game.

Theme

The color switch ties in to the dimension/duality theme very well and makes for a great platformer/puzzle game idea.

Aesthetics

The art has a simple two color Atari-like style which works well with the game’s mechanics. I also liked that you can customize the colors to your liking.

Music/Sound

The main theme you chose is catchy and fits the retro style of the game.

Overall

A good concept that ties in to the jam theme well. The game would benefit from more mechanics, but I think what you have so far is pretty solid. I want more!

My time was 1:53

Thanks for submitting!

Thank you so much! I am glad you enjoyed it.

A great game with some well thought out levels and a great tune.

Developer

Thanks!

Too bad its short, but the last level was pretty challenging for my small confused brain lmao
Simple yet extremely fun, the music is a banger, the art is adorable, and after finishing I did notice there are color pickers for changing the colors which is a reeeally neat feature

Developer(+1)

Thank you! I really like customization and I saw the perfect opportunity with this game since it uses two main colors.

:D

Yeah I also really like these kinds of things
I also like giving players a kind of freedom, thats why I made my game like this; where you program steps, I just love these ideas, simple modding APIs or atleast a sandbox mode or something like that is always so cool

Also funny how we both used the word "Chroma", I used mine like that because the initial concept was pretty different (and ChatGPT generated the name actually lmao), but I just stuck with it

Developer(+1)

ChatGPT generated the name too!

:D

Though it is a bit short, it was visually great. The mechanic you came up with is very interesting but it got undermined by the level design. I found myself to be just jumping once at a time for the whole game and didn't have to think at all. I think the music suited the game but the death sound effect was too overbearing.

Developer

Thank you! Yes, I do think the level design was lacking, as it always is in my games. I definitely think this would've been way better had I been good at level design.

:D

Hi, I love the mechanic of game (is funny and simple ) and how this is connecting with theme.The graphic is cute. The sound of death is little bit annoying , but the game is so cool :) 

Developer

Thank you!
