How to play :
To solve an Overflowing Palette puzzle, players must select a color from the palette on the side, then click on a cell to change it and all adjacent cells of the same color to the selected color. The goal is to fill the entire board with the target color within a limited number of turns—or fewer, if possible.
Controls:
Mouse Click on a Cell – Changes the cell's color to the currently selected color.
Keyboard Controls:
Numbers 1-8 – Quickly switch colors without using the mouse.
R Key – Reset the puzzle to start over.
Tools
- Tools do not consume moves but have a limited number of uses.
- They allow swapping two adjacent tiles, but only if they are different colors.
- Three types of tools:
- Swaps tiles both ways (vertically and horizontally).
- Swaps tiles vertically only.
- Swaps tiles horizontally only.
- Swaps tiles both ways (vertically and horizontally).
- To cancel the swap, press the same button (or hotkey) or click on any other non-highlighted tile
Endless Zen
Auto-generated levels without a move counter.
Choose board size, number of colors, and difficulty (which affects how shuffled the board starts).
Option to skip a level if you don’t like the generated result.
After completing a level, you can start another with the same settings.
You can share completed levels with others. (Your number of moves will be set as a goal for others to beat.)

Decent looking but kinda laggy rendition of classic Color Flow puzzle
No idea what that has to do with whatever "Wuthering Waves" is
Gameplay and a little Critique ;)
Thanks for the review, I’ll think about adding sounds and background music in upcoming update :)

And for "Highlight intensity" - it enhances the effect when hovering over a cell.
I would love for this to be an app
Hi, i have plans to do desktop app along with a big update, but right now I'm participating in GameDev.js Jam so the work on the update is on hold until then. So it's most likely about a month from now.
Can you make the game an apk, I love it.
Hi, I can't promise, since I've never done anything like this before, but I'll definitely take a look.
I like this
