Color Match
Score: 0 Best: 0
Tap to cycle your ball through 4 colors and match each falling gate's color before it reaches you — one wrong color and it's game over.
How it works
- Tap anywhere on the board to cycle your ball through 4 colors
- Match your ball's color to each falling gate's color before it reaches the bottom
- One mismatched gate ends the round — gates fall faster the longer you survive

Why 4 colors?
They're 4 colors from the site's design system, picked to stay clearly distinct even on a dim screen (teal, blue, red, green) — no new colors introduced just for this game.

Update history
- 2026-09-01 Fixed after user feedback: two of the four colors (amber and dark red) looked nearly identical on a dim screen, reading as a bug before any gameplay tension kicked in. Swapped amber for a bright blue so all 4 colors stay clearly distinct at a glance.
- 2026-08-31 Fixed: the gate-vs-ball collision zone was offset by half the ball's height from its actual on-screen position, so matched colors could still end the round (or vice versa) depending on exactly when a gate crossed that misaligned zone. Hit detection now uses the ball's real top/bottom edges.
- 2026-08-31 Added: a cover image (a teal ball falling toward an amber gate bar, mid color-transition) — used as the card thumbnail, social share image, and blog title image.
- 2026-08-31 Launched: a tiny promotional Color-Switch-style reflex game (no button) — tap to cycle a ball through 4 colors and match falling gates before they arrive, with increasing speed, a switch-tap sound and gate-pass chime, and a results screen with score, best score, and share options. Entirely client-side.
