- This game is fun but battling the enemies is counterintuitive and hard.

Extra Notes
Game was tested on Game Jam difficulty and each run lasts 3-10 minutes. The difficulty, world completion requirement, is how much of the world needs to be converted.
Game might freeze on level loading but it just takes a while to load the level.
Currently, game has no audio.

GDD:
My first impression with GDD is that the title doesnt match with the game's title
GDD title: Spread the color - Game title: Colors of Life
Glad to see that ya are planned beyond for future patch.
Game:
I think it is cool that ya have different difficulties.
It is on point with the theme. Also I found out that running in diagonal direction was faster.
Also the combat was not easy to do. Because it is easier to shoot while still and the mechanic feels odd when ya are running and shooting at the same time. Sometimes ya just ran into the enemies while the bullet should have killed them. The dash button is easy to forget. And right mouse click on Grenade is also easy to forget. It may feels better if it was used with the gamepad?
I think the game should support with the gamepad and having a setting menu would be cool for audio control and remap the keys could improved the experience of the game. Otherwise good game.
Thank you for the feedback.
Regarding the game name in GDD, I made the GDD early on when I used 1st name that came to mind and later changed it for release without changing it there.
Regarding the game issues, I agree with your points. Will definitely need to look into those issues.
