• amOEBA amBX mini-game

  Download amOEBA_setup_1.0.exe

  amOEBA is a cute and vibrant puzzle game in which players must match a particular amBX colour using combinations of coloured amOEBAE.

  The amOEBAE are tiny colourful creatures who glow when they are awake. On each level, the player gets a selection of tools of varying capabilities to wake up or put to sleep the amOEBAE, such as crashing cymbals and sleeping gas, all of which come alive with amBX effects.

  The tools vary in their range and effectiveness, so the player must use them carefully and with perfect timing in order to get just the right amount of each colour in the mix. As players progress through the levels, new tools are unlocked and these can be used in the level editor to make your own amOEBA challenges.

  Remember, the amOEBAE emit coloured light, so mixing them is not the same as mixing paint. Good luck!
