Sadly I could not make as many levels as I wanted but you can get the idea of the game with this little demo.

Arrows: Move and Jump
X: Shoot
Goal: Black Portal

There is a story behind the game but I didn't have enough time to add it.

Excelente idea, quisiera ver una version post-compo con mas niveles para ver que otra nuevas mecanicas se te ocurre con los colores. Lo que llevas es bastante entretenido!

Lo unico que no se entiende muy bien es que las puyas te devuelvan el color.

Really nice gameplay, super non-intuitive for me, but maybe I didn't play long enough. Got to about level 3 before getting frustrated!

I like it. After a few failed jumps I could intuitively guess my way to the mechanics. It is also quite difficult, which is neat.
One big negative though is that while the music is nice, at 1% in my audio mixer it was still a tiny bit loud for me. Since I usually keep it at 50% It blew my ears out the first time I started the game.

Really nice! Took a few tries to get used to it, but in the end I just wanted more levels :-P

Music was excellent, definitely enjoyed the mechanics of shooting the different colored guys to jump on the platforms. Great job!

One of the more unique mechanics i've come across this LD. deceptively simple and yet oh so complex. A very excellent and well done game!

This was awesome. Firstly a great idea, well executed. The audio and visuals work well together and the whole thing is great.

Nice puzzle game and the difficulty level felt about right. Music was good but a little loud.

Nice! Doesn't waste any time getting challenging either. :D Love it!

Wow! This is definitely one of my favorites so far. The gameplay was really cool. Excellent use of the theme. And I enjoyed the simplistic yet polished feel to the graphics. Plus the sound was great!

The only thing I think I might suggest is a bit more of a learning curve in terms of difficulty. I felt like the first level I was learning and then I was just thrown into the fire XD. Overall very enjoyable. Would recommend :)

good game! I had a similar idea for a platformer when the theme was announced, but this was well done.
It's a little difficult though I think, or maybe my timing is just horrible :)

Wow, awesome game. I like both the idea and implemention. Also, the music is good too. :)

I'm still not sure how it fits the theme but the game is good.

Inventive mechanics + solid level design = win
This is by far the most solid gameplay I've seen so far.
I liked that everything was intuitive enough not to require any explanation. You always get it after dying a couple of times.

One of the best concepts i've seen.With a better learning curve, this would be awesome.

Great music, fun controls. I wish the bullets went faster because a more twitch-shot color changing would fit more naturally with the way the jumping and platforming feel. Lots of fun though. I was a little confused about why the colored guys can stand on the white platforms. I'd love to see you continue work on this.

Cool mechanics. Perhaps it needs a little more balancing, but nice entry overall!
