About this game

Amidar challenges players to run a paintbrush along the borders of each rectangle, coloring them in to complete the level while avoiding enemies.

Players can force enemies to jump when they obstruct the route, with this ability limited to three uses per level or life span. As levels progress, the number of enemies and their speed increase.
