It's actually not impossible in vanilla bitsy! If you edit the gamedata directly, you can add more than three colours to a palette and specify which colour to use for individual sprites/tiles/items.

Do you think you can create a whole game around this quirk, and also give me a tutorial on how to do it?

THX! Plus, I started my own Bitsy Jam about hacks! (https://itch.io/jam/haxx-an-unofficial-bitsy-jam)

Oh, I would also like to know how to:

-Have different background colors on a single screen

-Different colored animation frames

That one can't be done without hacks; the corruption hack re-rendering individual sprites instead of the entire list on corruptions is what accomplishes that effect here.
