Obby, but you're changing colors!
This arcade runner turns the classic obby formula on its head by making your character's color your most important tool.

The game's visual design is a kaleidoscope of bright tones that keeps your eyes busy while your reflexes work overtime, creating a stimulating experience that feels fresh with each run. Progress brings new twists, including moving obstacles that change color mid-path and sections where you must switch shades mid-air to land safely. The difficulty curve is steady, starting gentle to teach you the mechanics before ramping up into stages that demand quick thinking and precise timing. Whether you have a few minutes or an hour, the game's responsive controls and snappy level design make every attempt satisfying, encouraging you to push just a little further each time.

What is Obby, but you're changing colors!
Jump into a rainbow-tinted world where your survival depends on matching the terrain. It's a simple concept, but the execution keeps you on your toes.
How to Play
Guide your character through the course, using the controls to jump and move. When you encounter a colored platform, switch your character's color to match it before landing.
Tips for Playing
- Look ahead as you run to spot the next color you'll need to switch to, so you're ready before you land.
- When facing moving platforms, time your color switch with the moment you touch down to avoid a nasty wipeout.
- Don't rush; a deliberate approach reduces mistakes and helps you learn tricky sections faster.
- In mid-air sections, switch colors early to give yourself time to adjust your landing.
- Practice level one until you can do it without thinking; it builds muscle memory for the tougher stages.
