Shape Factory by David Cookie
Transform shapes with your bare hands in this musical/reflex game inspired by Rhythm Paradise (or Heaven, or Tengoku Gold).
Press arrows to use different moves and R to restart.
It's my 2nd Ludum Dare, and this time I used all 3 days! Turns out it's pretty effective ^^ Hope you'll enjoy it!

Nice job!
The music adds even more the the tension.
Great submit.
The difficulty is well balanced (but too difficult at the end for me :D)
Good job!
Sinon dommage que le rythme produit en validant les directions ne soit pas plus en lien avec la musique.
En tout cas bravo pour cette création !
It's really difficult for me to balance well a rhythm game since I played a lot of them (Stepmania, Guitar Hero, Rhythm Paradise, Ouendan, Theatrhythm..), and finished all of them almost at 100%. It's basically my favorite type of game!
Would love to see someone play to my entry to find out how hard it is. Your message gets me a little worried Goutye xD
It got pretty difficult pretty quickly. I think part of the difficulty is that the shapes are all the same color -- humans are inherently better at quickly recognizing and reacting to colors than shapes (unless they are color blind), thus why all the guitar hero type games use colors. Also, I'm not sure if they "dizzy" mechanic adds to the fun or detracts from it; I've already missed the correct shape so sometimes it felt like adding insult to injury lol.
I wouldn't punish the player for missing a beat by not letting him play. That felt a bit merciless... Also I think that some beats were a bit off but I could be wrong (I have an older laptop so that could be also the cause...)
Overall, it was a fun game!
The musics and graphics suit well the mood
Even though, I got fired in the end ;)
I totally got fired though, I couldn't keep up! It was a nice touch to have the reminder on the screen.
