Hmmm...
I liked the concept and enjoyed the first couple points but sadly, it seems quite bugged out as shapes clearly that should be working, don't sometimes (especially past points 7 or 8) and it's game over, which is frustrating.
Not sure if it's working via collision detection or something but for now, I'll consider it unrunnable and come back to it later on to see if it's working better.
Again, good concept and seems fun!

Nice interpretation of the theme, I like it! Making the shape of the box not match its color really threw me for way longer than it should have done.
The first time I ran this, I got an error message when I started the game (after the title screen). Unfortunately I reloaded the page without copying it to see if it happens every time (it doesn't). Doesn't seem like a huge problem, but might be worth you knowing about in case it turns off some players.
i lost my shapes :( http://prntscr.com/atodw5
@mutonizer
The goal is to match the shapes, not the colors. Something tricky happens after 7/8 points. Are you sure you didn't fall in my trap? ;)
@Dasginger
Yeah some players don't realize right away (see @mutonizer :p). Thanks for the heads up on the error message, I'll run some test to see if I can reproduce it
@zwrawr
Were you using the web build? Collision detection is a bit wonky on the webGL. PC/Mac should work fine though
@orukinawa:
Holy geebus! Mind blown! It's crazy how the brain was conditioned to SEE the color and not the shape.
It's working 100% perfectly and at first, past 6-7, was a very strong inner struggle to NOT decide based on color but on shape only.
Past 15 though, it's just skill and I don't have that either so kept dying on 17 or 18.
VERY good fun! very addicting.
Thanks for clarifying and glad I came back to check :)
Hell, that wasn't as easy as I thought. Especially when those goddamn shapes flew away. Brain farted surprisingly often during the playthrough, well done!
Pretty enjoyable and addicting! Nice brain-game, fits well with theme
Hard game with good concept.
Really nice shape swapping game; different control scheme. I also really like the graphics.
Changing the colors so they don't match up with the shape after 7 points is a dirty trick! I like it
Neat concept, well done!
Sometimes the game ended though the shapes were shifted and were going to match. Perhaps it wasn't registering the shift after some time? Fun game overall!
I love the concept
Quite hard, sounds are a bit distracting but a great game nontheless 4/5.
Nice design, a little hard. It should ramp up to having the shapes be different colors and the speed is a little fast for 2 walls at once.
Oh my god I love this. I was about to comment that there's a bug but NO YOU JUST TRICKED ME. Those wrong-colored shapes...
Really really great stuff. Great use of theme, simple art but it works nicely. Only thought is it might benefit from a taller screen, more Tetris-like instead of square. Super super impressive; one of my faves so far.
Got hard 25 upwards, very good mini game
Nice, good looking game, quite tricky
Interesting idea, and the theme is very spot-on. Fun for a few minutes, but then it becomes really challenging. My highest score was 9!
simple and elegant :)
my brain! it hurts!
great stuff :)
Cool reaction game, really shows how slow my brain is.
Neat idea. Mixing the shapes and colours really made things tricky. It got incredibly difficult when you started having to do multiple shapes at the same time. Nice work.
Such a neat game! Great job!
Cool concept, I like how it adds in a new challenge later on.
Really challenging but simple gameplay, great!
High score 21.
Great idea and execution. One of the best takes on the theme.
Kudos.
Got the score of 27.
At first it seemed like merely a curious variation of the shape-switching gate-matching endless runner, with swapping shapes around. Then colours started getting misleading, and things got a little more fun. Then multiple shapes at once started appearing... I managed to successfully swap a few, but things get pretty intense at that point.
Overall, it's really cool variation of that ever-so-present with this theme gate-matching endless runner. Maybe at later point even more shapes need to be matched, I dunno. Really neat, anyway. ^^
Fun! Best score 22, I'm too slow to do two switches in time.
Effective gfx & sounds, good idea, solid game.
Interesting game! Very simple controls, but it still gets quite difficult.
