Looks good. Unfortunately my colour blindness means the first level after the tutorial was difficult for me to play. Which sucks.

Would a hover with RGB values help? It then becomes a bit of a logic game. For example you have F00 and 0F0 and you need a FF0

Thanks for trying it out, really appreciate you letting me know.

#14Nicely done. I need to admit the second step in the tutorial took me a while. It's not obvious the mixing tiles accept incoming colors only at some of the sides. I.e. you need to go further with the blue and make a U turn.

#15Maybe you can still have a hand-curated daily puzzle, but also have some procedural generation to have endless puzzles

I'm really sorry about the color problems, my wife also has some color issues that I was trying to work around. I think having a high contrast mode is something I can add. Thanks for trying it out, really appreciate you letting me know.

Thanks for your reply. I love playing these sorts of games but colours have always been an issue where colour is the primary mechanism of the game. So some games will just be out of reach and I’m ok with that. I wouldn’t want you to over complicate or ruin a nice UI to cater for my needs! Greens, browns and reds will always be an issue. Even blues and purples are hard too.

#182. As a techie who thinks of color in RGB, it took me a very long time to understand how to make green from yellow.

I'm not 100% if this is the right solution for your needs but I'd be interested in hearing if the update helps at all.
Thanks again for the feedback!
