I sometimes feel like the colors are not balenced enough and I did have a crash but I really liked the idea and the game is fun and challenging with great music
Thanks for your comment! Regarding the colors, it’s only luck,you can always discard with right click until you find the color you want. Btw, we just released a new version solving crashing bugs and with some new features. Please have a look!
cute game, great concept, tho it did crash on me after alittle, also the music is alittle loud but could be my headset
Thank you for playing!
Yeah, I'm afraid a bug in the code has slipped in with the rush of the jam and made it so the game can crash under certain circunstances. It is fixed already and we will update the game after the jams ends with an expanded and fixed version. We will add volume control ingame too.
very loverly
Thank you for the kind words!
