So, as you can probably tell by the title of this title that it’s a devlog for the upcoming game jam. I have some really good ideas on how to make this, but I’m experiencing some issues regarding the colour fading extension. My default colour pallet is poke and when I try to fade from white to poke after the title screen the colours get all mixed up.

Any help or advice is greatly appreciated.

yeah, but ants are cool and they were the second thing that came to mind when I thought of critters, (the first was bunnies because of Terraria.)

Also, please fix your grammer
