I had similar issues at first until I found out repeatedly retrying is not the solution to this problem. Have you considered that you may be too weak or ill-equipped to fight these opponents yet? The key is thorough exploration of each dungeon as well as trial and error. If you get stuck, try something else. If you can't beat a strong opponent, find a weaker one to gain XP. And one thing I only noticed halfway through the design is that DC doesn't automatically equip your starting gear for you (not sure if UA does, but I think so). I've found that gathering XP/levels and gearing up is essential to beating the game. Once I realized that I found it great fun.

I have no idea if this is the solution or not as I said it just seemed to work for me.

Whoops, I completely missed the thing about the colors. Maybe it's time to visit the oculist...
