Woah, gets stressful fast. I like it.

icylava 2016-04-18 14:30

I got 72%, not sure how good that is. It's simple but fun. It seems the shape detection is a bit more forgiving in the later levels, which is nice. Pretty cool game, good job :D

mrnyarlathotep 2016-04-18 18:39

Fun and great use of theme

treegemmer 2016-04-18 18:46

Awesome animation between the symbols!

mordokay 2016-04-18 18:47

Nice game with cool graphics. Like a lot the transition between the shapes. Found one bug (feature?) where if you shift between the shapes very fast you get +1. Got to level 5 without having to look at the screen.

rupazero 2016-04-18 19:46

Simply beautiful graphics, very nicely animated

owyoow 2016-04-18 19:53

Nice game! I like the transitions between shapes.

wtfrara 2016-04-18 19:55

Great take on the theme.

trasevol_dog 2016-04-18 20:13

Very cool idea!! Maybe it gets fast too fast though...
Graphics suit the shapeshifting really well!!!
Nice execution overall!

vootele 2016-04-18 21:21

Good job, made me play for a while :-)

blinry 2016-04-18 21:32

I also love the transitions! Found the gameplay a tad too simple. But fun, nevertheless!

tinyhugger 2016-04-18 23:33

Pretty neat!

knason 2016-04-19 18:35

matched 140 skill 72% Awesome game, it was really hard at the end though :-) it was fun and good use of the theme. Good job!

vururia 2016-04-20 17:08

Very literal use of the theme, I enjoyed it.

technovirusattack 2016-04-20 17:10

Loved the shift change animation! And the difficult scales really well! :D Sometimes i got the same shape four times in a row and became more tedious, but nice work here.

Fun game. I felt like in the last level, it didn't really matter how fast I could think, as there wasn't enough time to push the button to get to the shape I needed. It could work that fast if I had a way to pick my shape faster without pushing a button several times, or if it went just a bit slower by the later levels. But I was expecting to lose at some point, not to keep going for the highest skill rating I could get.

glitchu 2016-04-20 17:33

Nice and simple it was fun :) With a mouse it's pretty difficult since both clicks only moves the shape selected to the right I got a cheater rank on my first try because of that.Then tried it again on keyboard and felt it was alot better. Good audio and visuals too.

genericteamname 2016-04-20 20:31

I really liked the transformation animations

cossette 2016-04-21 02:32

simple, but well executed!

rjhelms 2016-04-21 05:44

Good stuff - I had some good fun with this. It felt like at the end things were going a bit too fast, in that the challenge was just mashing buttons fast enough rather than recognizing the shapes, but I can't think of an easy way around that.

Either way, I had a lot of fun playing this!

josefnpat 2016-04-21 07:13

Wow, simple but so well done. not only were the graphics impressive, but the music added to make the game more stressful. I was worried the difficulty would ramp up too fast, but it didn't, and I got a chance to play!

Very nice job!

janiq 2016-04-21 10:41

Really intense, i am too nervous for these type of games :-D Shapeshifting was nice and the idea was good. The game looked simple at the beginning but after a while it required a skill. I liked the music and effect too. Good work.

goutye 2016-04-21 16:47

Pretty good! Until the lvl 8 o/ Quite hard near the end obviously!

tompudding 2016-04-23 18:59

Very cool. I felt like it could have been a bit faster at the start, but it was a lot of fun! Great job. I recorded a video of myself playing : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FYFYF3MWiyU

asixjin 2016-04-23 23:20

This was fun! I got an 86%...Imma professional!!! I'd like to see this game with some scoreboards if it were worked on any further.

tegu 2016-04-24 21:21

Matched 140 shapes, missed 35, skill 80 %. Rank: Greased Lightning. This got very hard in the end. I kept mostly missing the shapes. The current shape itself obscures the incoming shapes, which is even more significant on the faster levels. I feel like the two nearly-circular shapes were too similar to each other as they can be easily mistaken. Also, pounding bass action. :P An intense game!

pyrosneak 2016-04-25 20:09

Fun game, would be good as a mobile app.

tth2x 2016-05-03 15:30

why i could not visit these link? it told me that Error-The requested URL could not be retrieved....orz is there other site link just like itch or some zone like dropbox? hope more link and to download ->play your game, your game's concept really attract me

mintarcade 2016-05-04 07:08

Pretty nice game! Pure fun. Gets hectic really fast, I like it - remind me of my own entry :)
I like how you made shapes, really nice, especially for the compo, impressive.

krasse 2016-05-04 07:46

Nice morphing stuff! The game is fun and simple to understand.

jin47 2016-05-04 08:40

Great Game. I found it a little too slow at the beginning though. Good music and great graphics Good job

wizzardmaker 2016-05-04 09:29

Funny little game, nice shifting effect, but it gets a little boring after some time.

lukethecoder64 2016-05-04 13:19

Great concept and execution!

bulletsarepeopletoo 2016-05-04 14:35

The shapes and the transitions are very cool. It's more fun than you'd expect for how simple it is. Sometimes at the end, it felt like there wasn't even enough time to press the arrow keys enough times to switch to the right shape. I got 89% though! Cool entry.

geckoo1337 2016-05-04 15:41

Very good game with a great concept. I cannot figure out how you manage all algorhythmes so as to create these forms. Cute aesthetic. It could be very fun on mobile device, but I don't know if it is possible on Löve. I like it. Well done. One of my favorites ++

3technologies3arts 2016-05-04 18:58

I liked how the game was pretty fast at the end. I very liked that arcade gameplay, the art style and the music is entertaining. Good job ;)

tomlum 2016-05-04 19:51

The shapeshifting animation is out of this world.

naca 2016-05-04 21:52

The core idea is simple but very well developed. The game looks great and is fun to play. I got 74% :D But the last level is absolutely crazy!

tth2x 2016-05-05 09:05

Woow! you really built so many shape symbol in it! and all have great design and enough reatures and identification.
to be honest,before i real play this game, i really not got the way about how play this game by read these scrrenshots,but when i real paly,there really have a great tutorial and nice rhythm curve.
but the most important thing is ,you build a great and so health checking method! let the game have more gameplay and also not too hard(i can feel that the check about shape,instead of a time of point,but a period time,i think this design is very great!)
finally,the wonderful ambient music help me to flow feel very much,also it fit the toatally ambient verymuch!(maybe if there are more emotional elements,this game will be more perfect)
all in all, great artwork, Congratulations!

thecain 2016-05-06 03:47

I got 83%, though at one point I had just given up, so I could have gotten higher.
This is quite fun, I like it.

kzdev 2016-05-06 06:09

Nicely done! I've played a few games similar to this but this is the best implementation of this type of game I've seen. I like it!
