Cooking with Colors is a laid-back game where you can earn points by using colors to craft exquisite meals such as a wedding cake or The Infinity Buffet!

Every recipe is a mixture of one of six colors: White, Black, Red, Blue, Yellow, and Green.

Your resources come quickly, so don't waste time or your storage will overflow and you will lose the round!


This game was made in 48 hours in the 2021 Paint Jam, where we could only use MS paint to draw assets.
