A quick look on Wikipedia reveals that color theory to be “a body of practical guidance to color mixing and the visual impacts of specific color combinations”. It is shown to good effect in this similarly-titled retro puzzle/platformer where you play as a little pixel-man who needs to overcome obstacles in each level by using primary and secondary colours to aid his progress. Touching a red, green, or blue sign results in your man being able to pass through obstacles of that colour. Furthermore, through additive colour mixing, touching certain other signs will let you pass through obstacles of more than one colour, for example, a magenta sign would make the red and blue obstacles disappear.

Play Color Theory and let us know how you fared.
