anyone know how to get 3 stars on level 85
On this level, only use blue and white. Also, if you have blue light filter turned on - I suggest to play without it
it doesnt let me get farther than the first level for some reason... like it just goes to a black screen :(
What browser are you using?
I noticed that Incognito tab in Chrome doesn't work properly on itch by some reason
I'm using regular Chrome, not incognito. Should I try Microsoft Edge?
Regular Chrome works for me, but try Edge too, it's interesting to see if it works.
Also, I'll be really grateful if you send me console logs from your Chrome. That may help me debug. To do it, in Chrome right click and press Inspect, then choose Console tab on the right. Go from the first level in the game to blank screen and copypaste whatever messages are in the console tab to https://pastebin.com/
I think I've found the issue and fixed it. Can you please try again?
not sure if its me, but I can't seem to get 3 stars on 156. great game nonetheless!
Thank you, I'm really glad you liked it!
Level 156 is tricky to beat fairly. You can get 3 stars if you add 1 magenta to the mix.
But, to be honest, I wouldn't have guessed it on my own without computer's aid. I'll look for a good way to address this later. Thanks for reporting!
I can't seem to get 3 stars on level 80 or 87
You can do it, I just checked! On level 80, you need only blue and cyan. 87 is yellow and white. The trick is to find the right proportion.
ah thank you x3 ; i think it was one of those situations where I've been playing a game for too long XD, it's seriously addicting XD
Thanks :)
I suspect blue light filters such as Night Shift can make it much harder. I'm adding a note about it
Since you seem to like bug reports, here is another one: It is now impossible to get 3 stars on levels 3 and 4
I like bug reports very much, thank you!
Fixed these as well. I'm pretty confident the stars for other levels are correct now, these were edge cases because they're part of tutorial.
Would anyone happen to know how to get 3 stars on level 54?
Wow, that was impossible actually, due to a small bug. I just fixed it, you can try again.
Thanks a lot for reporting!
Glad I could be of service!
immensely fun! perfect level of challenging!
Cool idea
This is quite good! The color mixing is fun and the slider system is also great!
I also feel that the gameplay would lend itself nicely to some more gamemodes, but as it is right now it's still a solid time waster.
Thank you for your kind words!
Do you have any game modes in mind you want to share?
