AHHH oh no I forgot to comment!!!!! Probably because I'm still stuck on level 4 haha. I had a power outage and my game went with it. :'3
This game has a lot of what I like to call mechanical symmetry, where different applications of the same idea in different forms suit similar purposes. For instance, Red beats Green not only because Red is fast enough to evade its line of sight, but it can also destroy a lot of Greens if you use its special because it's fast. In other words, the damage that each countercolor does might be higher, but they are hard counters in a lot of other ways than just in numbers. The mechanics are super clever, and are clearly the result of someone who thought it through and knows what they're doing. The game is hard as fuck though lmao, but I really respect it, it totally nails the prompt in a super competent way.
I also like the story presented in it, and the accompanying dialogue. The presentation in its audio/visual effects are great and really sell the vibe the game is trying to communicate. I'm gonna beat this game for sure and get back to you when I do!!!!
