Delicious Colors by XavierSeal
Greetings!
You are a wine taster, and you can "see" the taste of the thing you drink!
Yes, you got Synaesthesia! The color you see represents the taste.
- Red means sweet;
- Green means sour;
- Blue means spicy;
- These colors can be mixed in all kinds of way, so you are actually dealing with millions of color.
Your job is to find out the cup of wine that meets the "requirement" best. Sounds easy uh?
Because you are drinking wine, you get drunk gradually.
And your feeling will distort.
Though you can drink some tea to fix it.
But you know, the more wine you drink, the worse it is.

I think the tutorial should also make it clearer that the different flavors tint the beverage; i.e. the most sour beverage isn't going to be visibly, obviously green, but very slightly more greenish than all the others. I'm also unclear what "alcohol flavor" does to the color; the tutorial shows it as clear (or possibly gray), but does it make the color lighter, more grayish (desaturated), or what?
when i played it though i couldn't see any colours in the first "level" after the tutorial. also the drunk effect is way too much after 1 glas of wine, imho :P
Hope you prototyped it with real bottles
I'll try to add something to what has already been said ;p
- I aggree with comments above about the awesome graphics and liquid physics, the wine colors that are not visible enough and the drunk effect too violent.
- I genuinely had a small headache caused by playing your game in full screen, so GG I guess? :grin:
- The tutorial should also teach the "Chose" action, it's confusing to have it displayed but having no feedback at all on wether it does something or not. Though, I'm happy that there's a tutorial, it's rare to find one in game jams due to time.
Globally it wasn't a mountain of fun but it's fairly polish and can be extended easily.
