Wow. You looks like an expert!

You are so experienced as well.
Quote:"Four Colours"... A lot of "retro" style games used a limited colour palette... and I do like "retro"... lol
This theme looks very challenging and fun. I can imagine that most members of this forum are able to make impressive games with the theme "Four Colour". Yeah!
Quote:Abstract theme titles... There can be no right or wrong interpretation of the title. As I mentioned before, that is part of the challenge.
I totally agree.
Quote:"Edges"... First thoughts... Rooftop runner or Mountain climbing...
Insightful!
Quote:Which theme do you like?
"Four colours" may be very interesting. Entrant who chose this theme may make a very nostalgic game. For example, a very impressive pong game or a very cool brickout game. Which 4 colours? Black, white, blue and green may be a convincing colour combination.
