This is a very solid, well-made game! Definitely hard at first but after some practice managed to squeeze out 40 points ( : I decided to try it out with an x-box controller and it played surprising well. My favorite aspects are the reasonable difficulty curve (especially with the ungrabbable orbs) and how the game feels like it has a decent skill cap.

My one feedback is that for controller users, an easy way to restart the game without having to reach for the mouse would be great!

I like its difficulty, forces you to really get into the game to succeed.

Hard but fair, got a score of 27. It got a lot less frustrating after I understood that the tether has a colored hitbox too :)


EDIT: Tried it later with a controller, nothing worked :( next time consider providing at least a Windows build to avoid driver / browser issues

I have seen a few concepts like this, but this one probably does it the best with the addition of the colored band. The band connecting the circles is also one of the things players need to keep track of, and that plays nicely. Good job!

Hard game with a simple design and good presentation. Nice work!

Submitted

really cool, kinda hard but that's okay. are you goin to add something to this game after jam ends?

Submitted

This would work well as a two player game! It hurt my brain a little trying to control it myself but I enjoyed it, superhard! Well done

Very cool. Good job! =)

I can see this on as a phone app.  The controls feel great

Everyone loves the glow :P

Super that you keep changing colours so it doesnt get dull.

I've been looking for other games somewhat similar to mine, and while it's not what I expected in terms of the title of 'color' in the title I was pleasantly surprised with a solid take on idea of tethering two separately controlled objects together. I didn't even notice the slight arcade monitor bulge aesthetic but going back and looking that is so cool! The sound effects and visual effects were spot on with the atmosphere! There isn't much depth in terms of gameplay and the difficulty could be tweaked to be easier at first. However, the art and animation is amazing and I can tell you payed a ton of attention to the details. Great job!

Fun game.

1, There should be a life powerup so that you can regain health.

2, The game Itself is very hard, Play It a few times and you will see.

Besides these, fun game.

I would be very happy if you would play my game.

This game is gold, great work! It's mind bending to control both at the same time, the mechanic had me hooked.

Super addictive game! My one suggestion would be to flip the controls so that wasd always controls the left and udlr for the right, but other then that it's polished and fun!

Submitted

This game is really fun to play! But yeah difficult to move the 2 sides without panicking xD

Submitted

It was really fun, keeping track of two objects was a lot more difficult than I would've anticipated. Great job!

Simple, but very fun! One tiny thing I would recommend is to group by keyboard and controller rather than group by action in the instructions menu, since people only need to see the controls they're going to use. Otherwise great job, I liked it a lot. Just curious, what's your high score? I think I got to 32.

Submitted

Really cool! Minor details i loved was the random color on start. Also really cool to have lives for each color! I saw this kind of controls m,ultiple times now and I'm not quiet sure about them. took a lot a lot of practice to get used to. But overall really really great submission :) thanks for making this

Submitted

Good game ! I like the idea of controlling both characters at the same time 

Great job ! :)

There is no such thing as too many post-process effects! :D Jokes aside, the game has the right amount of juice and fast-paced gameplay, I liked it!
