Color Gate
Tap to bounce a glowing ball upward through spinning four-color gates. Only segments matching your color let you pass, and color orbs swap your color between gates.
Color Gate is a neon one-button reflex game built around a single rule: you can only pass through your own color. Each tap bounces your ball upward against gravity, and every obstacle in the climb is split into four bright colors that spin, slide and rotate. Wait for the right segment to swing into place, slip through, and grab the star waiting inside for a point.
The obstacles keep changing as you rise. Simple rings come first, then sliding color bars, spinning crosses set off to one side, double rings turning in opposite directions, rotating squares and twin bars. Between gates a rainbow orb switches your ball to a new color, so the safe path changes every time. Spin speeds increase with every obstacle, and every ten stars opens a new named zone, from Starter Loop through Vortex and Hyperspin to the Endless Spectrum.
Runs are short and intense, which makes it ideal for quick sessions and chasing one more best score. Every star you collect also adds to a lifetime total that unlocks new ball styles, including a long Comet tail, a Sparkler, a Prism ring and a Halo, which you can switch on the title screen. Tip: tap in a steady rhythm to hover below a gate and let it rotate to you instead of rushing.
How to play
Tap, click or press Space to bounce the ball upward; it falls when you stop. Pass only through obstacle segments that match your ball's color, collect stars for points and touch the rainbow orbs to change color. Hitting a different color, or falling off the bottom of the screen, ends the run.
