###GameJam Keywords (based on which we chose the theme of the game): colored, voodoo, avocat (French for avocado and Lawyer, double entendre)

###Language: python3+pygame

###Tools and Hardware used: Wacom Tablet/Photoshop CC, Ableton LivePush, Sublime, Canon 6D

##Plot Imagine a world where Avo Cado could be free. A world where mushing around would be a thing of the past. To the greater chagrin of our protagonist Avo The Cado the evil Voodoo Lawyers are behind her. The Lawyers try to pin down every Avo Cado in existence, especially the pink ones. Your mission, should you decide to accept it, is to be this bastard evil Voodoo lawyer and just end the life of all Avo Cado People around.

As every good Avo Cado hunter you have a Boss. Your Boss, Dr. Dredd, tells you what color of Avo Cado to go after.

Because of a stagnating economy you are ill equipped and can only afford hair pins to make a painful point on the Cado people. Some would argue it even hurts more, but we are not here to discuss that.

Do not let the coloured guys go their way, or you will lose.

Make it past level3 and enter the evil psycho mode where Dr. Dredd wants to test your brain skills. The only thing that changes is, READ the Color -> Click the Color…
