BICOLOR SOKOBAN (concept)

I had an idea for a variant of sokoban, based on the concept of bicolor doors.

Each block does something different but related

HINT: red[red] is traditional push. yellow[yellow] is traditional pull. The player character is currently pointed upwards, but spins to face the direction it moves. red[yellow] is swap, which is what triggered this whole thing in the first place.

Is this a puzzle that you’ve actually made, or is it just an idea for now? If the former, I don’t see the point of the “hint” since there’s no actual puzzle to make a hint for (perhaps you should have told us what red[red], yellow[yellow], green[green], and blue[blue] do, and seen if we could figure out the rest). If the latter, where can we try this?

My bad. I wanted people to consider the concept. I thought it would be more obvious than it actually is, so people could theorize on it.

Here's a link although it's not hosted or anything.

I think if you had told us what green[green] and blue[blue] did, we could have theorized, but without knowing what each color does on its own, it’s impossible to really theorize what the combinations would do.
