The idea for this game comes from the coloured belt grading system that's common in modern martial arts. The idea for the game is that player has to escape the room with the given ability to shift the colour of the room.
When the player changes the colour of the room, the room changes drastically revealing an entirely different room. The rooms will interact with each other, activating one item in one room would change something in another room and the player would have to try and find what changed which would lead to the next puzzle or clue. The player would only start with 2 colours to change between but will unlock more as they progress.
Essential experience-
The player must escape using the clues and puzzles laid out before them, but with the ability to change his perception of the room.
