Hi, cannot download the thing. Can you try putting it on itch.io instead. Or send it to kullenoskar@gmail.com I really want to play it :D

seanbeans 2017-12-05 14:30

@oskarolausson I have sent you a mail with the game on drive! Thanks for the advice! Currently working on a itch.io download link!

oskarolausson 2017-12-05 14:49

Nice game, gets really hectic men you have 6-7 different shapes. Good job :D

seanbeans 2017-12-05 14:54

@oskarolausso Thanks for playing!! :D

It's a pretty good game! Easy game mechanic und difficult to play if times moves on. It fits totally in the theme! Nice one!

seanbeans 2017-12-05 15:42

@talia many thanks!! ^^

beebo-studios 2017-12-05 15:51

I really like the look of your game and it fits the theme nicely. Good ol' Windows asking me if I want to use Caps Lock made me lose the game ;D Maybe somthing other than shift would be better.

Fun to play

seanbeans 2017-12-05 16:12

@beebo-studios Thanks!! We inspired on the controls from Downwell. We thought it would be a fitting controls for the mechanics, and very flexible for left-handed and right-handed people. But the caps lock its its disadvantage.

Great one! Feels a bit like Tetris and causes the same stress when time moves on. I like the simple and clear graphics and the shapes and colors are a good choice. I would really like to know what happens when you unlock all shapes but I can't make it that far... :sweat_smile:

seanbeans 2017-12-05 16:43

@machocodes Thanks!!

@foomar We had the idea to make an ending when you have lasted enough time to see all the shapes. But we hadn't the time and we didn't feel it was necessary beacuse no one will reach that milestone. Certainly, the next project we make on a jam will have a milestone and will be easier to accomplish! Hope you enjoyed!

Really fun, indeed how gameplay feels reminds me of tetris - frantic yet relaxing for some reason. Some technical issues - once I got past I think 8 or 9 shapes, other ones start to appear outside rendering range, so it's very hard to proceed.

Good game/ GL in LD.

seanbeans 2017-12-06 00:14

@catspawsgames Thanks! We really wanted to make the player feel that way :D! About the technical issues; we didn't noticed that type of issues yesterday. We will try to fix it! Thanks for the feedback

@cortexdeveloper Thanks! Same ;)

crdmrn 2017-12-06 01:35

Very nice! Would be perfect as a single button mobile game :sunglasses:

seanbeans 2017-12-06 01:43

@crdmrn Thanks! We had that idea in mind too! Maybe we will try to make a port for Android, for the lolz

grentacular 2017-12-06 04:16

The simple but straightforward nature of the game made it. I especially liked the music! After a certain point the additional shapes started appearing on the opposite side of the screen; I think it would be better for the player to show them all on the same side of the screen (while there's room, at least). Also, I would have appreciated some way of going backwards in the shape order, though that may have been an intentional part of the challenge. Overall, I enjoyed my time playing this! Great work!

arch 2017-12-06 04:24

Its really good! Addictive too. You should totally polish it up a bit more and release it! The simple, colorful, and angular art style works really well. My only criticism is that I think that the levels progressed too fast later on (5+ shapes).

seanbeans 2017-12-06 04:31

@grentacular Thanks for the feedback!

Indeed, the fact that you can only change your shape forward, and the new shapes adding at the list on the opposite side of the window makes the game harder as it gets more and more shapes and get every single one. But I will have in mind the window suggestion :D

seanbeans 2017-12-06 04:37

@arch We didn't really had much time to test it in depht, and we agree that later on it should progress slower on shapes. As I said to a comrade higher on the chat, we will maybe try to make a port on movile and realise it.

Thanks a lot for the feedback! :D

ethos 2017-12-07 03:36

I had a lot of fun with this game! The only issue I had was the pressing shift so many times triggered sticky keys :P

seanbeans 2017-12-07 14:59

@ethos Thank you! It's a common problem XD

toboggan 2017-12-08 12:08

Solid game! Enjoyed it. Gets hard fast. I also had the sticky keys issue, would've been cool to be able to change the mapping, and to play in proper full screen. Good job though.

triastase 2017-12-10 23:45

This is cool! Simple, but fun and quite challenging!

finntastico 2017-12-21 00:46

Would be awesome if this was available for other platforms as well. Also a web version would be great!

Our team does a weekly indie gamedev podcast called Nice Games Club, and we just did a Let's Play episode where we played thirty-six (!!) Ludum Dare 40 games, including yours (which we intend to go back to in order to get a better score)!
