@CravingAura: What exactly doesn't work? I just downloaded it from itch.io and it worked fine. You need to click on the "Download now"-button and follow the instructions to download it.
@CravingAura: Ugh... The game was set to private... I hate myself! It's available now though... ^^
Really neat game, though I got stuck very fast. I included it in my video compliation series of Ludum Dare games, if you’d like to check them out :) https://youtu.be/NUKW4hicpYU
Good concept, and the game is pretty fun! Well done!
technical issues first, holding space on the title screen drops the framerate and does little else.
The game is absolutely beautiful.I'd want to decorate my house with this game. And the theme interpretation is pretty neat.
But this is a physics puzzle game. And physics puzzle games conventionally operate on the principle of 'set stage up, play, watch what goes wrong, alter slightly, play, repeat'. And the issue with this particular title is that when something goes wrong, the entire stage resets to its original position. Initially, this isn't a huge issue since you you're only clicking one or two shapes. But later, when you get to grids of dozens of little shapes, which you have to re-click every time you lose the level, it gets unbearably frustrating. You do want a button/key which resets the stage to default (maybe keep that as [R]) but keep another button([Space] might work) for 'keep everything as I set it but reset the physics'.
The music is a 4 second loop that drove me insane as well.
Level design-wise, the game seems to love (pun intended) to throw new concepts at the player with no introduction in the middle of levels which claim to be introducing something else. Like the stage that explained how lines work and then arbitrarily required you to change the shape of the goal. I realize there's limited time to make levels in a compo, but tutorials are important.
Still, those graphics are amazing.
Enjoyed. I would be better if blocks stayed still after a lose. Its boring to click them over and over. Nice music!
Awesome physics puzzler. Cool concept and good execution!
Wish the restart was more instant, other than that neat game with effective graphics, could see this fit well on mobile(probably your intention)!
Alright, who said level 8 was possible.
in all seriousness, this has a wonderful concept, and it's a shame I cant beat level 8 for the life of me.
Wow, it's so polished. Aesthetics looks gorgeous!
Fun game - love it. Great concept, simple, but very well executed!
Nice unique take on the trangle-square-circle shape changing theme that we've seen so much during this competition. I got completely stuck on the one where there were circles as walls on either side and a big triangle in the middle that you can move. tried about 100 times and still no luck. I guess I liked it if I stuck around that much though ;)
Nice concept that is visually very polished, but the gameplay itself could use some more tweaking.
For example there's no hint at all that you can also change the shape of the end objects which you'll need to solve one of the early puzzles. Makes me wonder if something similar is not communicated for level 8 as I'm also stuck on that one.
Still, impressed by the amount of content and overall quality.
I got stumped at level 5 :| I guess I'm not really good at puzzle games. Other than that I pretty much agree with everybody else about how nice the style and sound effects are, and how bothersome it can be to reset the level each time you lose.
Fun game! Seemed to be very polished. Well done!
I really wish that the music loop was just a bit longer, maybe another 4-6 seconds so that it felt like it changed a bit.
As others have mentioned, having the physics reset without losing what I was clicking to solve the puzzle would be great because as the complexity increases, it starts to become tedious to reclick everything.
It was pretty fun overall.
Fun game! The levels are interesting and fun!
Nice game with two major annoyances: The long restart screen and the level getting reset every restart.
Simple concept with challenging levels. The music and sounds fit to the game, but the music loop is very short (and may get a bit annoying).
Some of the levels were very difficult to beat and I think the best way to ease things up is to remember the changes made to the initial state of the level, when the player fails and only revert to the initial state when the players presses R and no input should be accepted while the level resets.
The game looks so polished, because of all the nice animations.
Loved the music, thought all the audio fit with the visuals well. The 'dancing' theme was a nice touch throughout - tough to get that stuff in a compo :D
I got stuck pretty quickly - it's an interesting mechanic, but I think the difficulty curve could use be smoothed out a bit.
You really need to speed up the restart screen. I lose, and then hit R because I thought it was telling be I had to hit it again. This frustrated me.
Beautiful game, and pretty clever.
Not level 8 though.
Level 8 is impossible.
