Switcheroo is a color-based 2D puzzle platformer game with charming 8-bit graphics, fast-paced gameplay, and a killer Sonic The Hedgehog-inspired sountrack! The game stars Jade, a kangaroo kidnapped and placed in a dangerous lab by the evil artist-turned-mad scientist Dr. Chromus, as part of his revenge against the Animal Kingdom.

As a result of being experimented on, Jade gained colorkinetic powers which allow her to manipulate the colors of various contraptions throughout the lab! Depending on the current color, each contraption behaves differently. Thus, by using a combination of platforming and puzzle-solving skills, Jade just might be able to escape from Dr. Chromus's clutches and rescue the other animals trapped in his lab!

• A beautiful, retro-inspired art style that takes the best of yesterday (crispy pixel graphics) and combines it with the luxuries of today: parallax backgrounds, intricate animations, and, of course, plenty of color!

• A sizzling soundtrack by composer Noah Simcox that keeps you on your toes, er. paws!

• Hop, jump, and kick your way through over 30 handcrafted levels split across several themed zones, from the watery depths of Marine Zone to the geometry-shifting madness of Quantum Zone!

• Brave additional challenges and search every nook and cranny to find batteries, which are used to progress in the game and unlock secret levels!

• Choose your own path and explore optional areas with the World Map!
