About

Play as Panko, the magical cat. Every 10 seconds, Panko changes color and gains abilities! Navigate your way through the clouds & portals while finding all the sweet snacks to keep Panko happy!

Play on WebGL here: https://cgullbird.itch.io/color-copy-cats

Controls

-A or left arrow keys to move left.

-D or right arrow keys to move right.

-Space bar to jump.

Known Bugs

-Panko gets stuck on the floor in a jump pose on occasion. Sometimes, smushing Panko against a wall will help. However, there currently does not seem to be a secure way to resolve this in-game other than to restart or advance to the next level.

-While portals (not of Panko's current color) act as floors/walls, you may not jump on a portal.

Cute style! i like the art and sound design. Some collisions feel a bit 'sticky' when jumping into walls that are not your colour. Overall an interesting concept.

Some collision doesn't works very well, but i've liked the art style. Nice concept to be evolved.

Very cute game, the sounds are very fun to hear, the gameplay got a little stuck, but nothing that a little tweaking did not help. Congrats on the game.

Adorable game. I unfortunately got the stuck in jump bug a few times, but it was still an enjoyable experience. I liked trying to find the optimal way to pick up the fruits/veggies. Well done!

What a nice game! I love panko, the sprites, and the animations. One thing I found was that I was just waiting around for the colours to change for most of the game. Also, as others have said, some of the collisions are a bit off. Anyway, It was fun :)

Fun puzzler with a really nice cute kawaii UwU style. My main criticism is that I'm constantly for the 10 second timer to cool down, the game would be more fun if the player could just switch colors at will instead of waiting every 10 seconds, but that's theme right.

Panko! :smiley_cat: Too cute! A couple of small issues though: if you change colors while overlapping a fruit, Panko doesn't collect the fruit unless you move off the fruit and back onto it. And you can't jump while standing on a colored barrier when Panko is a different color.

Very cute game and the SFX sparked joy! I did feel like the having to wait 10 seconds for the color change was a bit frustrating, especially I wasn't sure what order the colors cycled in at the start.

Very cute game! I think the art was super top notch, very well drawn. The gameplay itself can be a bit boring when you have to wait a long time just to get through some sections. I feel its a result of a bad theme we got for ludum dare. If you made a version where we could change colors manually or through some other mechanic, you've got a winning game here!

The graphics and animations are so cute! Sadly, I had some issues with collision detection, where the cat wouldn't fall down properly if I was moving horizontally into a wall. I also ran into a weird glitch where it wouldn't pick up an item if I was already inside the shape when the cat's color changed.

Very cute! Collision could use some work, but I wouldn't say it ruined it for me.

Cute art style! At first I thought that the color transformation was random, but when I realized it was always red -> yellow -> blue I was able to plan the levels ahead of time and get through them quickly! Unfortunately I ran into the stuck-in-the-ground bug, so I was unable to finish :( Nice work though for a solo entry!

Ahhhh panko is adorable!! Nice art and take on the theme ^^

The art looks really cute, and the concept is interesting aswell, sadly the physics of the movement are kind of weird, getting stuck on edges and floating on portals. Also i think a score, like how long you took to comlete a level could have been fun.

The art it's cool, need to fix any colliders in jumps but you can play and understand the idea and mechanics.

Well done!

The art style is relaxing and cute! Control is a bit weird and there might be collider issues around the portal. Good job on making it!

Really fun trying to remember the order of the colors to get through the puzzles. The animation and art are fantastic! Really nice work on this! :D

Very cute game, art is your strong suit for sure. Theme was used well. Game was a bit too simple for me and as others have mentioned the jump gets stuck a lot. And congratulations on your first solo jam, Wish you well.

Such a cute art style! I like the concept - sadly the jump was bugged various times but making this on your own in 72 hours is impressive :).

I liked the style. The collisions, maybe at overlaps, misbehaved a little bit, and if you were the correct color, you had to leave and re-enter the matching pickup to trigger it. Good work and concept, nice job!

Cute little game! I really like Panko's animations, and the art style in general is very pleasing to look at. I'm a fan of the concept with the theme but I do agree with others that I can get a little impatient waiting for the colors to change lol. Overall I like it though, well done!

The graphics look really cute. Especially the cat and it's walking animation ^^ Maybe you could also add some loose condition by introducing obstacles or things you should not collect. The latter could also be colored. All in all nice work.

Nice entry, simple gameplay with a lovely art and good sound effects.
Some thoughts:
- I love the cat (all the cats)
- The art reminds me to the classic arcade platform games, in the good way of course
- There's no much to do while you wait the colors to change
