You forgot to add "VCRUNTIME140.dll" to the windows file ;).

The game plays well, however the speed at which the difficulty of the game increases can be changed perhaps.

exhidor: Yeah, I noted you need to install the runtimes :( unfortunately it's easier to compile with MSVC ABI than with GNU ABI on windows, and I haven't found anyone who would compile it with GNU, thus the dependency; and in my experience VCRuntime has some other dependencies, which makes it a bit awkward (as far as I can remember, at least)

Great work! I like the "change color" mechanic. I tried the "Ultra hd" mode and it's a good challenge! The controls feel a bit laggy, not sure if it's intended or not.

I liked it. Very simple and to the point. UltraHD was the most fun.

Cool game. Simple and fun.
Took a little while to figure out how the colour switching worked.
The menus should use the mouse rather than the keyboard.

Neat! I like the swapping colors mechanic. Really keeps you on your toes!

Simple, but well made! I included it in my Ludum Dare 34 compilation video series, if you’d like to check it out :) https://youtu.be/6QI1ZQ7v1fA
