Cool concept of timing and turnbase. Jazz music is a very nice touch.
The limitations make me think about every move.

One thing, I felt like I have trouble finding the difference between the dark green or light  green.

Still simple and nice work.

Thanks for checking it out! If I were to continue it I would definitely make the colour differences more obvious as it can sometimes get tough to tell them apart for sure.

I like this game its make me thinking , but sometimes there are colors that look the same it's very troublesome hahaha. Btw nice work!

Thanks for checking it out! Sometimes the colours are very similar yeah, if I were to continue with the game I might restrict the colours a bit so it's not quite as difficult sometimes.

I'm guessing the colors are intentionally similar to make things difficult? I lost several rounds when I though I had the right shade, but was wrong.

Developer

Thanks for checking it out! Yeah there is no restriction on the choice of colours so they can sometimes be very similar.

 color you have to grab can just be similar? sometimes seems to work. 
the presentation is really nice! great work!!

Developer

The colour needs to match exactly although sometimes there are some that are extremely close in shade.
Thanks for checking out! Appreciate it.

I found this game very fun. Frustrating when i couldn't' get the correct color but overall great submission!

Developer

Thank you for checking it out! Much appreciated.

This is a game of chance, not skill. If there was a wait button then you'd be fine. The game is fun, however it is a 50/50 chance that you can even end up underneath the correct bucket. Also, in any game making the wrong move can be your downfall, the Limitation is asking us to make games in which we are either literally (through game mechanics) or figuratively (story beats) our own enemy. This is a good game though. 6/10

Developer

You may well be correct on the skill vs chance aspect, I didn't really think the count through properly but I can always go back and tweak it about after the jam. Thanks for checking it out and your feedback! :)

I'm pretty sure it might be impossible to get under a paint when the paint is an odd number away since you can only move an even amount, if you could only move 7 or 9 spaces I think that would allow you to use strategy rather than chance.

edit: looking back I realized that changing it to an odd number wouldn't work since if the paint was an even number away it would be impossible to get to with an odd number.

Developer

Thanks for giving it a go and the feedback. You may be correct, I would have to adjust it and figure that out properly! :)
