Colour My... Series

The Colour My... series is a Flash series of games and an animation created by Newgrounds and Deviant ART user SilverStitch. The controls are simple, using the arrow keys or WASD to move, and the mouse to interact with various objects.

The series is set in a dystopian society called the Black and White City. Color and creativity are prohibited, as are emotions, with security doors and robots set to enforce the laws. For the most part, everyone is silent and safe. However, one stick figure man has found color, and love in a stick girl. He goes on journeys to find his love, spread color...and perhaps awaken others.

Currently, there are five installments in the series.

1. Colour My Heart. The first game in the series, it deals with the stick man simply looking for his love, no matter where she may be.

2. Colour My World. The stick girl invites the stick man on a date within the city, and he must find her. But the landscape won't let him go that easily; signs litter the world, trying to make him give up and quit searching. This game makes the coloring theme more prominent, as actions affect the surrounding environment and make them colorful. It also introduces the system of clicking on sparkling objects to interact with them.

3. Colour My Dreams. Released on Halloween, this entry is Darker and Edgier than the previous ones. The stick man has found himself in a seemingly endless nightmare, separated from his love. Taunting messages tell him she is gone, but if he perseveres he can not only conquer the darkness, but embrace it.

4. Colour My Fate. The fourth entry, released on Christmas Day, deals with the stick man realizing he doesn't have a gift for his love for Christmas. Wondering if the people even remember the holiday, he vows to bring the citizens the joy and color of Christmas. This is the first of the series with an inventory system, and is significantly longer than the previous installments.

5. Colour My Life. The fifth and, so far, final release in the series, this differs from the others in that it's an animation as opposed to a controllable game. After having brought down most of the Black and White City's security by disabling the main power, our protagonist now plans to try and reunite and free the city...

The games are comparable to A Moment of Peace.
