Coloring World is a platform game. You control a character in a strange planet with a special helmet. His helmet is a special weapon that can activate color platforms and transform the world.
The objective is to explore this world to find an exit. But nothing is always as we can think...
Beware of the gaps and pikes...
Control keys :
A - Red platforms (Q on Qwerty keyboards) Z - Yellow platforms (W on Qwerty keyboards) E - Blue platforms Arrow keys to move and up arrow or spacebar to jump
Sorry for the problem on Qwerty keyboards... It makes the game a little bit harder to play...
Post-Jam edit : We added according to the comments new keyboard controls : A or Q - Red platforms Z or W - Yellow platforms E - Blue platforms Up or Spacebar - jump
Well done! This game is innovative and fun. The graphics are also brilliant! The death messages mocking you were actually quite funny instead of annoying or frustrating. The controls were odd at times(maybe the color controls should have been Q,W,R instead of Z,A,E.) they felt kind of odd on a QWERTY keyboard. The level design was also very good. Overall wonderful job!
This has a very, very, very striking game play closeness to my game I made two LD's ago, the one before super jeff. It is identical mechanic.
Anyway, your game was great, I immidiently knew how to play. The visible cooldown bars were great too. The background and graphics were nice too. The background didn't have the same style as the foreground, which was off putting at first but didn't bother me too much. Enjoyed alot, thanks!
Music and Sound volume at zero by default? Some people are going to miss that. I like the game, it should have more levels. The spikes in the last level have a frustrating collision mask, makes you think you die before even touching them.
I really like the art, especially the main character (and how their visor changes color). The controls were a bit awkward, but once I got used to them, I was able to enjoy the entire game. Nice work!
Okay, nice execution. But a platformer that you want to be challenging needs "tight" controls. Why not put the speedup on R or F? You could even use spacebar for speedup and let us use up arrow to jump. Also don't ask to be rated on audio if there are none. Nice work =)
Interesting concept. You have to think on two different levels. Not sure I could train my brain to think properly, but maybe it's related to the controls? I'm used to moving with my left, and doing actions with my right, and this is opposite of that. Regardless, it's a neat idea and I could see it being a good action-puzzler.

The controls are extremely awkward, though.

Overall great game, though.
