trichromat [browser]
A trichromatic box-pushing puzzle game: Trichromat by spratt. Warning: May be hard on the eyes if you are sensitive to flashy visual effects. (Z key to undo a move)
Unfortunately I get aura migraines that look a lot like this game. Somehow it feels like the game is triggering me as I play. I can only play for about 8 levels at a time.
I finally finished the game after a week. The primary issue being the flashing/out of sync colors. After a few minutes, you just have to walk away. Mostly, it was determination to finish the game based on the comments. Is it a game that I would return to in order to play again? Nope. And I still stand by my earlier comment. "R" for Restart would be a plus (yes, I know it's in the pause menu).
It would be a good game based on a good idea, but the lack of restart button (I know it is in the menu, which is only reachable with mouse, it is not very user-friendly, when you play with the keyboard) and the continuous, very annoying flashing made me quit at level 13, and I lost interest totally.
Maybe it would be a good idea if the flashing would go away after a few level, as they progess repairing in the story. Annoying flasing is funny for 2 minutes, after that it is just bothering.
Is there some new feature on level 8?
ReplyDeleteI don't see any possible solution.
Try to get the blue guy to the bottom right and the yellow guy just in front of the gate. Then move left.
ReplyDeleteThere is no trick here.
Nice idea but too much motion.
ReplyDeleteCan you do level 10?
ReplyDeleteFor level 10 the door combo is G&R then R&B.

I have never wanted a simple "R" for Restart so badly in my gaming life than with this game. Level 12 is heck!
ReplyDeleteAlso stuck on level 12.
ReplyDeleteGot motion sick and had to stop.

Nice, good level of difficulty, and saves progress, which is my new favorite thing to comment on.
ReplyDeleteTook me a couple of days, levels 12, 16, and 20 were especially tricky for me, but they all can be done.
The restart level feature is in the pause menu.
ReplyDeleteI wish there was a not flashing option!
ReplyDeleteIt is not necessary to make the game harder using vision effects.
Level 15 is a bear.
ReplyDeleteNow stuck on level 16, which is tricky as you guys and everyone else are saying. Well... not really "everyone else".

ReplyDeleteCan't play more than 5 minutes - blinking and mixed colors is just awful
ReplyDeleteNot being able to restart levels makes it even worse.
