@Foebane exactly. The only BB games that are > 16 colors are Chaos engine, CE2, and Speedball 2 AGA/CD32 versions

Gods has technically more colors on screen (copper). AFAIR the Atari had a similar effect but not sure. Basically Steve Tall was a genius pulling the scrolling and all on Atari. But unfortunately, they ported the game on Amiga without changing much.

The fact that it appears to have more than 16 colors is because of the extremely well chosen palette and super graphics. Note that Gods palette changes slightly between the levels too.
