Platformer, Blue and Red Mechanic

Question

There was this platformer that I think was released only on consoles. It featured very stylish graphics and its main gameplay mechanic was changing the color of your character between red and blue to pass obstacles. Does anyone know what the name of the game might be?

The game is not old, it was released in either 2010 or 2011. I know it was fairly well know (at least to the console crowd). I never played it because I don't have a console. Unfortunately I can't don't know too many details about it.

Some gameplay details:

One example of how the red/blue mechanic was used: if the player is red then he cannot be hit by red enemies, but he can be hit by blue enemies. He also, cannot kill enemies of the same color as him.

In fact, the player could only interact with objects of the same color that he had. He could only stand on blue platforms if he was blue, but not on red platforms.

Answer

Kind of sounds like Outland.
