Thanks for replying. In the meantime, I ended up finding out unintentionally, but your link helped me add more colors to the game, which was something I also wanted, so thanks for that! Much success with your games!
To use more than 3 colours in a screen at the same time you can do something like this in the game data window. Find the palette you want to use and add a couple more RGB colours on lines underneath. For example:
PAL 2 NAME Black green 39,40,41 109,162,109 179,113,91 133,212,201 249,252,246
I have added 133,212,201 & 249,252,246 into the game data.
Then (again in the game data window) find the tile you want to change the colour of, and underneath the line that says either WAL true or WAL false add COL plus the number row of the colour you want to use - don't forget that Bitsy starts counting at 0. For example:
TIL a 00110000 00111000 11001100 11100100 01110100 00111110 00000011 00000101 NAME mistletoe 1 green WAL true
COL
4
COL 4 will give the mistletoe 1 green tile a colour of 249,252,246
When you click out of the game data window after editing the text the tiles will change to the correct colour. :)

Hi, great game! Can you tell me how to overcome the limit of 2 frames of animation in bitsy?
Thankyou. :) Take a look at this page (the How do I add more animation frames section) for info https://docs.google.com/document/d/1jRz3wgkQU3kZN_LGChw4UlMWhVoc145J-euBtkr7NeE/...

Thank you :)
So charming! I really enjoyed this.
Thanks Ned. Glad you liked it. :)
delightful atmosphere, very soothing, love the patterns of leaves & branches
this is cozy, and warm.
Really nice sprite-work, especially considering the limitations. Awesome job, I loved this little game!
Thank you. :)
Wait how did you add different colors/colours to the sprites and tiles while they mostly are the same?
