There are 4 colors associated with each symbol. The remaining 4 colors are just distractions.
There is no concept of a color overriding another color, all colors are equal. 4 colors are valid, the other 4 are just distractions to mislead you.
There is no concept of door frame overriding door panel. The door is simply saying, there are 2 colors to help you guess what's the object behind the door.
I was super confused playing this, I had to use excel sheet to mark down the colors to realize the misconceptions about colors overriding or door panel overriding. This game was fun once figured out but it did gave me some misconceptions that ran me in circles
So, I understand that Skulls are negative points, Diamonds are positive points, and Hearts are multipliers to each. Therefore, the goal is to find and open all of the skulls before moving on to hearts, and finally diamonds.
Using Firefox 128.0.3 on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, this freezes the browser hard, right after I click the door and get the “don’t know if it’s even coherent” text. At that point, Firefox is using over 100% of CPU, according to top. Using Chromium 127.0.6533.88 on the same OS, the browser doesn’t freeze quite as hard, but the game stops at the same point and Chromium also uses ridiculous amounts of CPU.
I’m assuming this isn’t the intended behavior, and it’s not something I’ve seen with other web-playable games on these browsers.
I really like games where learning how it works is part of the challenge. The most I'd say for this one is 'click on doors, and try to figure out what's going on', but that's probably more annoying than helpful :D

Ah bummer. I am sorta pushing what should be done with webgl. Thanks for the bug report, really appreciate it.
Oof, i'm a nerd apparently.
Interesting, but a tutorial would help...
