This one is slightly different, and requires a bit more thinking than the standard methods.

There are two things to focus on, each of them a ring with 15 circles. You can rotate the outer ring with your mouse. When the colors of each of the circles match up, click the left mouse. If you've aligned them properly, you'll get points and extra time. Otherwise, you'll just lose some points. Then, the colors reset and you try again. Try to get the most rings possible in a minute and earn yourself a highscore!

There are 3 gamemodes, and 8 "skins".

Also, the song featured is named Obscurity, written by Dark Nebula.

You control a ball that bounces up and down on its own. Steer the ball left/right and hit colored blocks. If the colors match you can destroy the block.

Enter: color changers, deadly skull blocks, moving enemies, keys, doors, bombs and many more.

An editor to create your own sets is included. You can also upload your set from inside the game and have it immediately available to other players.

It was created for the One Switch Competition, a compo for one switch games by Retroremakes and One Switch UK. The idea is to make gaming more acessible for people with disabilities (this doesn't mean that Jet Boarder is easy). Press space to turn right, release to turn left. In menus, press space to change options and hold it to select. Try finishing the tracks in the least possible time and watch your energy that runs out when colliding with obstacles!
