ColourTron is a browser based game written in HTML and Javascript. It's been tested and works in Chrome. The demo is available on my site to play: http://ld24.darthstoo.co.uk/

Good choice using a web technology for your game. Even better using HTML5 and Javascript! Loved your music by the way, I am humming it now after playing your game for a while! Fun game.

Cheers dude, glad you like it! I wrote the music on the guitar then tried to play it on a MIDI keyboard to record it. I don't play keyboard or piano so it was mostly recorded as a series of mistakes. But the mistakes kind of worked better than I originally planned so it was all good!

The music was good, obviously some effort put into that. Although, I'll be honest, I have no idea what the hell is going or or what I should be doing. Maybe I'm just dumb. This was a cool take on the theme, though.

Cool game. I did have a hard time figuring out what to do

i think its a very interesting concept. the music didn't work in Opera however so i couldn't rate you on that.

The concept is really funny. Take me a long to understand how it work but I like it ;-)

Seems like it would be fun if I could figure out how to beat the first level! I found that when you shoot green squares at it, it pulls out the green, leaving the red. But when I shoot red squares at it, they just go right through! GAH!

Try adjusting the red value of the tower, down a bit. Also, you can see the colour value of a target when you shoot at it.

Perhaps a little more explanation as to how the colours interact might be useful, I tried it for a while but couldn't figure out what to do. I really like the hacking interface though :) and the idea of hacking objects in the game. Also the music doesn't work in Firefox.
