You Only Get One Color is a cooperative puzzle experience. Create and mix color to traverse obstacles and reach the mythical rainbow monkey.

Controls:

Left Mouse to reset colors on your arms

Click and Hold the Right Mouse on one of your arms to transfer your color. Touch another player who is transferring theirs to mix color.

(Multiplayer is still untested let me know in the comments whether others can join your game or you can join theirs)

Has great potential, only the push force needs to be stronger to pass the level.

I agree with wiz3kid. This game has a lot of potential, but it was difficult to understand what to do at some points. A tutorial level would help. There's still a few hours left, so you might want to try that.

Couldn't add a tutorial because I was asleep the last few hours of the comp XD. There's now some info on controls at the start that should hopefully add some context to your abilities. Also there seems to be a bug where certain clients have a much slower movement speed than others. I have no clue what's causing this :(

I think I see where this is going. It was really hard to play for some reason, and the right mouse button that was supposed to be held down kept popping up a menu instead, so I'm not sure I was able to play it correctly.

Very unique concept, with a lot of potential if done right. It's a little difficult to complete with so few people on right now though. Two issues stand out to me, mouse controls don't seem to do anything, at least not in the web version, and what's the number text field for? Overall a cool idea, good job!

Tutorial would be helpful, and maybe a bit fast of movement. Interesting and thoughtful concept tho.

Unfortunately I can't connect. There is just black screen after I press join game button.

I like this. It was hard to get to grips with, thrown in the deep end and you can't communicate with one another.

Very interesting idea. Also want a tutorial level =) And maybe some bots who can help with colors, if I understand how to play...

No idea what was going on, wasn't any fun.

Feels a bit different when it comes to design. Both game and visual..

Couldn't understand what to do, I wont rate it.

Like others are saying, the potential seems amazing here. Reminds me of my submission, which was also a simplistic looking FPS made in Unity. Please check it out if you haven't :)
