FTG writes- The modern age of gaming is about the graphics, the sound, and level progression multiplayer. However, platformers strive to be powerful in their own simplicity, taking rustic concepts of yore then adding innovative hooks and twists for the present day. Colour Bind removes glossy graphics and gloomy tales for some hardcore puzzling. For better or worse, gravity is put on its own (literally) head.

"Since the dawn of platforming games, the ability to mess with gravity has been a staple for at least one level in many games of the genre. Finding the right direction and moving properly within it could be disconcerting for the player, and really shake things up. Oftentimes, enemies and objects weren’t affected by the shift, leading to two inconsistent directions for gravity. But… what happens when there are three?"
Non-Fiction Gaming writer Anthony flips gravity to get his brain going in the right direction. Colour Bind (Not Colourblind) is a fantastic brain teaser that may leave many frustrated.
Welcome to Colour Bind, where red means up... or was it down? Sam checked out this indie puzzle-platformer to test his reasoning abilities.
Portal has opened up the puzzle game genre to everyone with an idea of how to bend physics. I dunno... this game looks like a pass to me.
The big difference is that Portal was very intuitive. This concept doesn't have any logic behind it... there's no way to instinctively understand what's expected of you.
I'm with you in putting this in the 'pass' column.
