Global Game Jam 2014!

I have been going to the Global Game Jam every year for the past 5 years, and i can definitely say that its the best event in the gaming industry in Israel (at least for me :)
The place was full, with more than 400 participants (485 Registered), Tel Aviv jam site was second world wide right after Egypt with 500+ participants (Respect to the middle east! :D)
Imagine an entire floor packed with geeks who are crazy about games just as much as you are, all gathered for the sole purpose of making games, crazy right? check out some photos here.
And so, without further ado - here is my game! Coloruzzle, a color based puzzle game, i don't want to explain too much about it, i think its more fun if you try to figure it out without instructions.
since this was for the game jam, as you can see it is a pretty basic game, all done in 2 days with some finishes the day after, so its mostly a conceptual mock-up for a game, also - we didn't have a lot of time to work on level design, some of the levels are just random :P but they are all passable!
so enjoy! leave feedback in comments :)
