Chromatomato is a 2D platformer based where you collect colored tomatoes– hence, chromatomato– in order to power the dead crystals somewhere in every level. While they are unpowered, your health degrades by the second, so speed is the name of the game. Sometimes however, speed isn't enough. Good thing you've got a few tricks.

Diversifiers:

PPKM:  Limits player movement dynamically based on the conditions of the game at the moment.

- Orange is the New Black: Using COLORS as a mechanic.

- For Britannia: Overuse of a mechanic has side effects.

Controls:

- A, D for horizontal movement and scrolling through transformations

- Spacebar for jumping

- E for triggering transformations

- Left mouse button for interactions

- Mouse cursor for aiming the interactions

The concept of this game is really creative!!! It took me a bit to figure out the color system so I failed pretty spectacularly at first, but it made the moment of finally getting it felt so much more rewarding :) I still couldn't get past the 2nd level even after understanding it though... a skill issue on my end I fear...
