You've so got to try this. A rather nice fun little challenge. So worth a go if you would like to understand colour theory a bit more, challenge to what you think you know too.

http://color.method.ac/

It starts off with Hue as a colour picking game. Levels are Hue, Saturation, Complementary, Analog, Triad and Tetrad. I'm certainly not so good with Analog but Saturation and Triad I'm queen. :D :lol:

I've played it twice and so far the best is 7.2 and recommends I take a course on design for programmers, which it seems the designers may do in the future with little challenges to complete to improve yourself.

Sounds fun to me. I'll be keeping an eye on this. :D

7.5 is the best I've managed to do. It's a pretty good way to waste time :).

8.9 woo!

10 ,10 ,8, 9, 8, 9.

This time I found myself thinking of hue first then saturation levels. That seems to help. I wonder what happens if you get 10.0.

You have the knowledge that you have beaten the game.

Realistically this also depends of your monitors display as each monitor will have a different representation of colour and the game obviously is not getting that information from your display settings and model number of your monitor.
