Holy shit this is hard. Really good idea though.
If you choose to keep working on it, consider toning down the panning on the shift effect. I lost myself many times when phasing out colors.
Also consider just doing RBY because its really hard to remember that red gets rid of a color that ISNT red.
Christ this game is hard. It doesn't really fit the theme, but I do like the game's concept and slick visual style. I stopped playing immediately after I got caught in a little niche and had to start over from the tutorial though.
Pretty fun game!!!
I don't think it actually fits the theme but the game is very cool and the RGB idea is pretty great! Good work!
Those colors are an awesome mechanic! It's a hard game though.
It's a cool idea, pretty hard and very nice visually. I'd rather not have to do the tutorial every time though.
I really liked this, although the obstacles were placed a bit too close together for me to properly discern their colour and react accordingly. Good idea though!
The running guy could be a little bit bigger was hard to see since i tested it on a small monitor
Could get very complex at times if you have to hold down two at the same time to get reverse effects. But fun.
My computer doesn't support pressing '1', '2' and '3' at the same time so I am unable to play your game.
Really cool and really hard. Actually don't have much more to say - it's a lot of fun when you get a grip on the mechanics and it's definitely one of the most innovative games I've played this LD, even though I don't think it fits the theme all that well. Saying that the world is moving instead of the player is fair enough, but I feel like something in the game should indicate that this is actually the case. Nevertheless, great game!
I'm not voting as I can't start the game. Exe file says that the batch file needs to contains "start()".
Awesome idea, the shifting effect was really well executed. Not sure how it fit into the theme though?
@VDC: I didn't consider that, thanks for pointing that out. If you did want to try changing the keys, the relevant script is in Resources/Scripts/ProjectorController.as : "ShiftColors(!input.keyDown['1'], !input.keyDown['2'], !input.keyDown['3']);"
@oskardevelopment: You need to run 'Run.bat', which feeds the correct script to Urho3DPlayer.exe.
I won't argue that this game might not seem to fit the theme, but if anyone is super duper interested to see how it does in some small way, you can open the scene file in the Urho3D scene editor and press play. The shadows of the player and world is projected onto a screen, and it's through the shifting of three lights on the screen that the phase effect works.
Thanks for playing all !
THE MAIN CHARACTER IS SOOO TINY...
Very interesting concept, although a lot of it's not really coming across in the game's current state. I'd like to see more done with the concept outside of a game jam.
Really innovative take on an infinite runner, and really challenging.
Adding some checkpoints to this would be good idea if you choose to keep working on this - at the very least, making it so you don't have to repeat the tutorial if you die after you've finished it.
Interesting twist your brought to the runner gender. It was hard to set my brain for those color operations but I managed my way more or less! Maybe if the pace was a bit higher it would be less frustrating to restart all over again (just a suggestion). Nice work anyway :)
Original clever concept ! Well done.
hard to remember which are the good color to phase out to get rid of another color, but I'm sure that with some training, it can be overcome.
Nice game !
nice work
