Color Spectrum - University Project

Color Spectrum is a cyberpunk top-down shooter where the player controls a hologram with the power of changing its colour for attacking and defending herself from her enemies. The main gimmick of this game is that by changing the colour, the player will avoid colliding with anything of the same colour, like any enemy bullets and walls. This means that the player will need to constantly adapt to the enemies that come after him.
