Looking good, I really like the style! I would love to see more stuff like this!
Also you've chosen a CC-by licence, but then stated that attribution isn't needed. CC-by requires attribution in the licence, so there's some discrepency there. Did you mean to use CC0?
The 'look at any existing prototypes' means you can use any existing projects you have, but I would prefer you to only do this if you're having trouble with coming up with a project.
It's up to you to decide what works best for the style of game you're making. I'm really looking forward to seeing if someone can make a game that changes the 3 colours throughout the game, but still has solid gameplay.
The 3-colour limit is something I came up with off the top of my head. I was thinking about games with few colours, sort of like the Undertale boss fights. I thought - 'Hey, this would be good for a challenge' but quickly realised that 2 colours is a bit too limiting. So, 3 colours! It has no historical relevance, it's just a quirky little challenge I came up with.
The 'point' of the challenge is exactly that. It's a way of challenging yourself to try something that you haven't done before.
Challenges like these massively helped me get into game development, and I'd love to see more people join this community as a whole. They are designed for anyone who wants to try something fun, as well as those who may be struggling to find their feet when designing games.
So the colour count includes black. You would only be allowed red, green, and black. Nothing else.
So it's a monthly challenge that we're hosting, this month has turned out to be more game-development related, however last month was an art challenge. The itch.io page is linked in the post, and is here: https://itch.io/jam/unofficial-pixeland-challenge-2

Just over two weeks left for the Pixeland Monthly Challenge! I've seen some really cool things so far, and I can't wait to be able to judge them all!
If you haven't started yet, there's still plenty of time! Don't forget - There's a choice of 3 premium asset packs up for grabs from the winner!

Wow, I'm already amazed at that screenshot!

You can use any 3 colours, and all 3 can change at any time during the game.
In effect, there can only be 3 RGB values on the screen at any time.

Ah, my bad.

I've just uploaded a short post with some tips for the challenge! I highly recommend taking a look. https://itch.io/jam/unofficial-pixeland-challenge-2/topic/774763/tips-hi...
I've added the above specification on the itch.io page, so thanks for bringing it up!
