I like the music too, and the difficulty scales well. I like the factory signage vibe to the graphics, and the use of transparency in the animations. One recommendation I would make would be to use a different colour for the factory shapes than the character, I sometimes got confused by that. I do like that they are the same colour when they overlap, it forces you to know what the shapes are by the time you hit them. Nice design there! Thank you for your submission! Hope you had fun making it :D"},{"author_name":"paragonpawns","author_uid":"65576","time":"Apr 19, 2016 @ 3:02am","epoch":1461034620,"text":"Awesome job, David! I really like the atmosphere here.

J'ai eu un peu de mal à retenir quelle forme est associée à quelle direction la première fois, mais au deuxième essai ça allait déjà beaucoup mieux.

I like the humor of the head smash.\r\rIt 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."},{"author_name":"kestrelgames","author_uid":"92262","time":"Apr 21, 2016 @ 1:48am","epoch":1461202980,"text":"It's a really fun concept!
