Congratulations on the game. I liked the idea of sorting things, It could have a way of reducing the risk, though.

This certainly got the theme! It was interesting because I was doing well at the start but as soon as yellow came up it was all over for me. I got to round 7. I think a sneaky thing you could do is say that the black orbs shouldn't be sorted, but there could be something you could use them for. I tried sorting it into the space in the bottom :P

Ah, to be a child sorting M&Ms. Anyway: increasing complexity over time is good, but still pretty simple. The mechanics are there, but the details of scoring and risk don't really change the flavor of how the player interacts with the game.

Nice job on completing this game within 48 hours! I liked the skull mechanic that drained your money as you got further.

Great game :sunglasses: The animation for the skull eating the dollars is really excellent design

On install started asking if I wanted to allow the install to make changes to my device. Sorry, I had a hard pass on that one.

Good game all around. Reminds me of the Bob-Omb sorting game in Mario 64 DS. I was impressed by how much variety you brought to such a simple concept. I happen to know that in GameMaker Studio, when you go to build your game, you can select package as zip so that players don't have to perform a full installation for such a simple game.

Reuploaded as a .zip, I didn't realize it was a cumbersome install process

Awesome game! It gets really stressful :P I wish there were some sound effects. Anyway, great job with the game.

That's a really neat idea and quite abstract which I did not expect. A bit more polish would have been nice (e.g. pickup effects, little sounds or even music), but other than that well done.
