Paint all the Colors

Fun and addictive. I like that you get your paint framed on a wall after completing a level. If something was to change, maybe make the difficulty increase more each time? Although I have to admit that I picked Easy.

It does get worse with the more colours and amounts you have, I had trouble trying to play along with the request without painting over my last colour - nice feature. Admittedly, I ended up scribbling and filling the screen just to use up the tubes, so it ended up nothing like what it told me to draw :P

Music is relaxing, good for painting.

Had a great laugh. Love the mechanics and how you ask the user to draw objects that are generally lacking in color. I kind of wish you could limit the player to only use the colors inside the boxes. And nothing else - no extra paints, LIVE IN YOUR RESTRAINTS, BECOME YOUR RESTRAINTS.

Draw a zebra.....I drew no with multicolors hahaha. Good job!

That was a pretty funny game, like everyone else said giving all colours but the ones you actually need is recipe for funny painting. Really innovative game and great execution!

Haha. Summary: my art becomes very abstract. Interesting game. Fun to draw even though my paintings weren't being rated for quality (lucky me!).

Nice game, though it doesn't check for content like google quick draw does. Fun to try to paint an object without its usual color. Quite puzzling to use more colors than what's needed and still have a nice picture. This is a nice painting application but only as funny as the painter willingness to play. Ok audio. Overall OK.

great game, nice break from running around shooting things.

That was much more fun than I anticipated, good job! I actually laughed out loud at the ORANGE level.

As it is, the game is pretty basic, but I could see this becoming more serious if it had community elements, where you keep all the images in a database and show the player a random image someone else did after they completed the level. Or make it a multiplayer game where two players compete and maybe a third player gets to vote on the drawing. Score given for time and quality.

The music was quite nice and didn't intrude on the experience. Some sound effects might have worked well here (maybe a soft scribble sound while you draw).

I think I would have enjoyed it more if the colors matched what I was asked to draw, although the orange level was pretty funny.

Found it pretty funny when i had to draw an orange with everything but orange :) lovely little game, wish it would give relevant colors to paint with, but had a lot of fun nontheless!

Pretty fun game. I like the mechanic and the main setback you have, it fits very nicely with the theme. With the limitations you have you end up creating quite abstract drawings especially when you don't get the colours you would expect to get. However I did sometimes find myself just scribbling a bit on the sides as the difficulty does ramp up quite a bit, I think there should be more of an incentive to drawing somewhat accurately even though I can understand why you wouldnt have time to implement this. Otherwise well done! :)

Short update: I showed your game to my 7-year old daughter and I think it has become her favorite game of all LD40 games so far.

It's really cute to see her start out with good intentions to actually draw the object but then there is so much color left in the pots and she adds all kinds of stuff to the scene and in the end it's just a mess of lines and squiggles. :D
