Interesting concept for the game. I think making the player guess what the picture is after the final round would fit the game well. I initially thought I needed to guess what the picture is with how the game was presented, with the category and all.

Took a while to click with me, but it did eventually click. There's strategy to where you estimate the colors might go, and I recognized the painting before it was revealed a few times. My finger hurts, because I initially didn't realize you could hold the mouse button down to place targets, and it really helped to realize I could use the 1-5 keys instead of clicking each palette individually. Fun concept. I could see it being a quick party game if it had multiplayer.
