New game, new colours!

I've started a new game on the iPhone:
I have new colours! All the orange and purple candies in most of the early levels have changed to red and yellow. Am I in a test group or are all new players getting this now? The glitch we had last time they tried new colours has been fixed, e.g. level 12 the order to collect now is yellows.
Another interesting change: I get three different suggested moves with hints turned on. The game circulates round three different move suggestions if you pause to see what moves it suggests. All change….
A problem though : My game freezes up on this page:
So that doesn't bode well.
It'll be interesting to see how far the colour changes go, and what other new features I may discover.

I've got the normal levels on my other game, scrolling back @Peaches12 . This one is a completely new game I have started after deleting and reinstalling the app. I believe it's a test group with different colours and three adviced move choices. Unfortunately, it's the rubbish episode race:
It showed up at level 51 but then disappeared, now starting at level 66 I get this horrible version. @Carol-38 That's the one you get now, isn't it?

UGH @christinewupp now that really is the pits. Mine went from 35 to 30 gold with 3 x 10 minute useless boosters. 30 was bad enough but 25? You can't even get 1 Party Booster with that. I'm also fed up with the Chocolate Box, can't even get 5 gold from the Silver Box, no levels left to play. So once again waiting for that to time down ⌚⬇️ Can't wait to see what other wonderful, sweet things they come up with 😴

@Carol-38 you have to complete three Episode Races before it changes into the Champions Race. I guess like a lot of people you haven't lost a Race for a long time so you forget that you have to build up to the maximum amount of gold available from the Champions Race

I'm on my champions race now, and it's 35 gold plus some pointless timed boosters. So no worse than my other game, which also pays out 35 gold, except when I get ads to watch for more, but ads have disappeared these past two weeks. Seasons Pass turned up with just 12 hours to go, but I managed to get to the top and claim all the boosters.
I am wondering if the new version I have will change all the orange and purple candies for reds and yellows from now on. This version affects levels that only have 4 colours and that are good for cascades and collection events. Blues and greens are still good to collect as they remain in those levels. I wonder if they have just done it to make the game brighter or if there is a bigger plan with regards to leaderboard competitions. Personally I find all the primary colours a bit too bright, but it might just take some getting used to.
Is anyone else getting the changed colours or the three different move suggestion version of the game?

I tested starting a new game, and I got the "Tiffi" version where the starting colors are the normal green, blue, orange, purples.
I have a theory the new color scheme with reds and yellows is for the Man-Bun Yeti version.
It's not a bad idea, would add more fun if Candy Crush followed in the vein of Pokemon where different starters have different exclusive features. …But it sounds like a lot of work, and I'd rather King put their energy into fixing current issues/implementing things players have long requested!
Edit: never mind. Levels 1-8 were normal colors, but then the new color scheme took over from L9 onward. Whatever criteria King's using to roll out the new color scheme is a mystery.
