This is pretty good. Took a few attempts to really get the hang of it but once I did it was pretty fun and intense.

I like this mechanic, but even more how you implemented it. This says "minimalism" better a Mondriand graphics clone.
This really is minimalism in games! Also engaging ;)
I died a few times before I understood what I had to do, but I got the hang of it and enjoyed the game!
Amazingly fun for such a simple game. Congrats!
I wasn't expecting this. Nice and smart mechanics ! The surviving aspect is very well done, it's all about making choices and sacrifices to live a little bit longer.
Nice mechanic with a minimalist implementation :)
I can't get it to run, anyone else?
Took me a little to get the hang of it, but it ended up being pretty fun. Good job!
I dig the mechanic, it really is more fun than you'd expect from a bunch of growing and shrinking circles. Nice job!
Great concept that plays well. Well done! :)
Simple but intense, good work
I liked it. At first I thought it's just a simple avoider-game, but no, there's actually more to it than just that, which makes it fairly interesting.
Very simple rules, that come together to create a really well-thought-out game. Quick to pick up, very difficult to put down.
Took me a few seconds to realize that I am constantly shrinking and that collecting red=good, but after that it was quite challenging and fun!
I love it! It reminds me of Fishy Game. Except with a new twist!
I liked it. Simple and to the point.
Really enjoyed this game, innovative, minimalistic and fun! Missed music/sound and the corners were kinda annoying, maybe a circle arena would be better.
Really a nice concept, more expansive than how it appears, and easy to learn. Well done.
One of the best I have played so far. Really like the simplicity of it but would be better if there was some ambient music behind it.
Very fun! Also it matched the theme well.
Nicely executed, the pressure builds up and adds to the decision process.
Took a second to figure out that I was shrinking from not eating reds, but once I figured out the idea, it was fun, and minimalistic!
Very simple! I think your game fits well with the theme
Perfect use of the theme, nice entry.
I really like the decision making on there (shrink/grow). Seems like a dilemma for me, every second. Trade-offs and counters, changing plans every time to stay alive.
The game scales up quite nicely with such a simple mechanic.
I missed music and sounds. It'd add up quite a bit to the overall experience.
61 seconds!
@lapogo: install flash.
Fun little game! Addictive and I like the timer behind the game! Can't get past 55 seconds! Good job!
Nice interesting mechanic, but the colours could sometimes be hard to differentiate, mostly with the yellows and greens
Great work, the visuals fits the mechanic perfectly and the gameplay is addictive. :)
That's a very clever use of very few pieces. It's so simple that I can't think of anything else to say about it. Except that, as a red/green colorblind person it's really darn hard to play.
Interesting take on a traditional mechanic. A lot of fun deciding when it was safe to switch colors, or suddenly having to change your strategy when switching my accident.
Cool concept Puccini, you found something very intersting here :) A scoreboard could improve the experience though. Well done :)
Survived 53 sec. Funny little game. :)
Took me a while to realise that later in the game, big isn't best! Nice concept and neat graphics, and fits well with the theme.
Cool twist on a common mechanic. Took a few plays to realize what was going on, but that works well for this sort of game.
Thanks for the feedback!

Lovely simple concept you've got there. I like it!
Pretty intense. Had me on the edge of my seat at times :p
=D this definitely hit the spot regarding the theme, it screams minimalism. I loved the minimalist mechanic, and the simple geometric art. It had no sound, but I didn't felt the need for it either.
The only thing not minimized was the fun =D.
This is very clever! I like it, simple and awesome.
