Which ThinkyCon talks inspired your entry?
Leveraging Thinky Principles For Accessible Design - added a colorblind mode, avoided causing stress
My Approach to Making Small Games - an attempt use varying mechanics to try and change the formulas all linking one core idea, encouraged me to keep scope small
Composing Music for Chants of Senaar - inspired my first attempt at writing background music for a game
I was also inspired by multiple talks to try and AVOID making a Sokoban game, as I realised from listening to the talks that this was a much more common type of puzzle game than I thought, and I wanted to break away from that convention to make my submission more unique.

Really cool game, i think i beat about 10 levels, but i can't check because it doesn't save my progress.

Otherwise very fun!

Thanks so much for playing!

update: I added a save feature for your highscores now so they'll be preserved when reloading the page.

Nice job. I completed the first five puzzles. Finding it quite challenging, maybe just because I'm bad at mixing colours. 

Small bug at level 1-3 the reset button keeps sending me to level 0-2.

Thanks for playing! I think it is fairly challenging, and 1-3 in particular (the 6th level) is harder than a lot of those around it. I was considering maybe adding a colour chart for those who don't intuitively get the mixing so much.

And good spot with that bug, fixed now! Along with updated music that's a little less aggressive...
