About Tag: The Power of Paint

✦ AI summary

Tag: The Power of Paint is a first-person puzzle platformer where you spray different colored paints onto surfaces to gain unique abilities like bouncing, speed-boosting, and wall-sticking as you navigate mind-bending stages. By combining paint powers creatively, you'll solve intricate puzzles and execute demanding parkour sequences to reach the end of each level.


In the first-person puzzle game that would go on to inspire Portal 2, Tag: The Power of Paint puts you behind the barrel of a spray paint gun with very unusual abilities. Depending on which color you use, the player can bounce off, speed over, or stick to the level’s surfaces. Combine paint powers to platform your way to the end of each mind-bending stage.
  • Bounce, rush, and climb your way to victory!
  • Puzzle your way through nine mind-bending stages!
  • Combine paint types for the ultimate parkour experience!

This game was developed as a student project at DigiPen Institute of Technology and was created for educational purposes only. Please check out our publisher page for more information.

The original Splatoon. It's got unique mechanics, with each color paint having a different power, great music (it makes me feel like I'm in a cyberpunk-esque city), and this general charm that makes it feel like less of a product and more of a passion project. If you're like me and wanted to know the origins of Portal 2's gel mechanics, or are searching for a Splatoon-style PC game, this is for you.
