Colors Live, the sequel to the critically acclaimed painting game Colors! 3D is finally coming to the Nintendo Switch along with a pressure sensitive Colors SonarPen included in every physical unit! Based on modern painting techniques originally developed for professional drawing tablets, Colors Live is tailored for the Nintendo Switch, and caters to everyone from serious artists to aimless doodlers. Whether you are looking to sketch, paint, or draw up your next plans for world domination, Colors Live is the perfect digital sketchbook.
Colors Live is a surprisingly capable piece of software that utilizes the Nintendo Switch's unique form factor to deliver a fun and accessible drawing experience that can appeal to both younger and older audiences thanks to its limited but flexible toolset.
