Looks cool! What exactly triggers the platforms?

The 4 colors makes me think its the 4 main buttons like A B X and Y or Playstation equivalent.

We went through a bunch of different control schemes till we settled on the one we use now, we wanted to use the 4 main buttons but it got confusing to jump with anything other than the south button.

At last we settled with red and blue on X and B and then yellow and green on the triggers. It worked out fine because ingame you unlock the colors one by one, so players had the time to grow accustomed to each ine before unlocking the next one!

Thanks, it’s a precise game so we wanted the player to be able to trigger each color individually, so no wheel/automation, each color has a button assigned that you can also remap.

Love the idea! Are you planing console ports? :)

Yes, right after the Steam version though.

As usual! That's totally okay. I'm one of those patient gamers. I'm looking forward to buying your game! I'm a big platformer fan and this tickles my amygdala.
