Cool idea, but very difficult. A lot of time I had the color fairly close but had gems that would mess up the color, especially with their effects.
Very cool idea, very creative too!
The sound effects match the game. The art style is cute and the game has balanced difficulty, I liked it!
The game has potential. If it was a little more polished it would be even better! Anyway, congratulations, the game turned out really well during a short period of development! Good luck with the jam! :D
Took me some getting used to since I don't have too much experience dealing with HSV, but I was pretty satisfied once I solved one. Btw I couldn't stop picking up and dropping the gems just to hear the sounds lol
I like the sound design and the idea of the game, I enjoyed how gems in different slots adjusted the color values in the wheel. I did feel it might have been a little ambitious to use the entire color wheel for a short game jam instead of picking a few distinct colors but I applaud the courage to go beyond :)
I really liked the concept and implementation of this game. I appreciate the margin for when you're slightly above the desired color results. Overall, neat and simple game.
There was one puzzle I managed to solve with three gems but I failed when I placed the fourth one ahah.
Overall, the game is enjoyable. I don't have any knowledge in colors, but I still had fun. The sounds and art are great, and it was super interesting to see the usage of the theme and limitation in your game.
Great job and keep it up!
I love the gems' sfx man, at first it's actually quite...hair-raising ;)) but after a while, I got addicted to it lolll. It's quite hard for people who is not an expert in colour and stuff, but I still managed to solve a few pieces. Overall it's a good game and I hope you do well on upcoming games too!
Thank you! The sound is actually glasses clinking x)
Nice game! I see what you guys were going for and it's a really cool concept. But I feel some sort of basic explanation of color theory and HSV in some sort of tutorial would help immensely. I can see this game being used to learn color theory if you focused more on an "educational game" route.
Either way really nice game and looking forward to more!
Thank you for the kind words !
I tried to do give HSV insights in the description, But I very much agree that’s not easy stuff. A tutorial showing of the different parameters relate in our visualizer would’ve been perfect, but we didn’t took/had the time to implement it - putting the whole game and see how it would work out was the priority, difficulty adjustment was luxury.
Awesome game! The idea is super cool, and though it is a little challenging to figure out the right combination, I had a really good time playing it. The graphics are very fitting too. Great work!
Thank you ! Unfortunately, the game turned out a bit harder than we wished, I agree
