At first I thought it was a little generic, but then the shapes started loosing\/gaining edges. Really cool innovation. Portals were a nice touch as well. Easy enough to figure out, but maybe some text instructions would be nice.

Requires reflexes, where all the other levels (so far) are just thought puzzles where you can take your time. I think you should remove that level and make sure every level is completely turn based."},{"author_name":"GodsBoss","author_uid":"20672","time":"Apr 18, 2016 @ 8:50am","epoch":1460969100,"text":"@ogre: Thank you for your feedback. Yes, it feels out of place. The engine allowed it and I did not want to lose the opportunity to include such a level.\r\rI plan to group the levels into "campaigns", which would allow to place all those reflex-based puzzles together. Then people could just play all the other levels.\r\rBut this is something bound to be made in a post-compo version."},{"author_name":"justinooncx","author_uid":"38380","time":"Apr 18, 2016 @ 12:17pm","epoch":1460981520,"text":"That was surprisingly clever! You made sure the players understood all of the mechanics before getting really tricky~ There were one or two puzzles where I could solve without using everything given to me, but all in all, a nice brain-bender~"},{"author_name":"CMLSC","author_uid":"86097","time":"Apr 18, 2016 @ 1:05pm","epoch":1460984400,"text":"I really like the idea. :D"},{"author_name":"tomdeal","author_uid":"35919","time":"Apr 18, 2016 @ 1:58pm","epoch":1460987580,"text":"Cool puzzle game.

Like a couple others said, the suggestion would rather be to improve\/reorder the existing ones, since we're being a bit overwhelmed at first with all these different blocks, and we keep jumping from an idea to another. I guess you were a bit in a hurry to add all these levels in the last hours ;)\r\rNow game was clever, fun to play and the difficulty well balanced, so frankly it's a very good entry. Except for the above remark the only issue I could see is regarding the controls, that you could have made more comfortable by for example automatically showing the control arrows when hovering a shape. Or maybe having players "focus" a shape then be able to move them with the keyboard?\r\rOne last thing, a funny glitch is that you forgot to reset the shapes rotation after passing through these 90° angles triggers, turning the shapes into weird blobs ^^\r\rAnyway the game was fun to play, and the graphics are clear and cohesive (they remind my of the GemCraft games). The "add\/remove angles" mechanic was brilliant. Impressive entry overall, so congratulations!\r\r(PS: I answered to your comment on my own entry!)"},{"author_name":"psyxose","author_uid":"90363","time":"Apr 19, 2016 @ 1:39pm","epoch":1461072840,"text":"Good game, nice graphics. :)"},{"author_name":"mrnannings","author_uid":"20306","time":"Apr 20, 2016 @ 3:35pm","epoch":1461166200,"text":"Amasing puzzle design.
