This possible-swap sensor approach proven to be more efficient than previous one. Glad some sensors were reduced.

Ah yes that caused by random candies at start of level. I made the system better, user can pre-laid candies as they wish. You can partially put candies and the empty places will be taken by random candies. Full or not is up to user how they arrange those candies.

Red is easy to look

Green is more strobing

Blue feels more safe

Orange gives more energy

Brown is warm color

Black is just good to go

Combine colors to get certain effect. Opposite colors give contrast & separation, Analogous colors are easy to match. Playing with saturation make the shading deeper.
