Silly but fun idea, I love it. Reminded me of my childhood flashgames with the art direction!
Very well done.

Some of the movement/collision and game feel could use some polish, but I love the idea and I can see it being fun with more patterns, more movement etc. Art is good too, good stuff!

Very difficult game but fun nonethless. Very creative too to make being hit by bullets a positive mechanic.

This game has a unique aesthetic compared to most others here, it’s very eye-catching! I feel the game would benefit a lot from small game-feel additions like hit sound effects and small particles - which are decently easy to implement, but can make a world of difference imo. The gameplay loop is definitely interesting! Having to maintain a steady supply of paint while not being overwhelmed is a fun challenge.

A great idea and although the execution could use a little bit more polish, the graphics and audio are good. The game loop is extremely addictive. With some more work put into it, this game could really shine.

Cute idea. I like your take on role-reversal. The art is nice and the music is catchy but also doesn't get annoying over time. Nicely done.

This is actually so fun :D I found myself addicted. I like the little detail that your sponge grows as it fills up with paint. Also can say i've never played a game as a sponge before so that's a first.
