I really enjoyed this game. I really like the idea; it was fun, creative, and fit with the theme really well! The audio was awesome and smooth. It got really hard at the end... I couldn't get more than 30 points lol.
The control was a tiny bit rough since I keep feeling like the square was reluctant to move; it could only accelerate up down left or right, which is understandable, but did interfere with the game experience a bit.
Overall it was a fun game! :D

That was much more difficult that I thought it would be! When the red circles fist started moving and chewing through the shapes I panicked. lol The visuals are simple but do the job and the audio fits the game. There's a definite positive trial-and-error vibe here as you play a level, learn its layout and movements, and eventually (hopefully) win.

The game is really fun, i must say I enjoy it, the graphics are good, the sound is great and the controls are good also, but at least for me, the way to change the shape of the object to collect their peers is a bit difficult and makes the game at some points difficult to achieve the goal due to the speed of the obstacles.

It was fun and got really challenging as the transformation circles started to move more, it was tricky to learn to nudge shapes to safety when you couldn't absorb them yet.

The particle effects were nice.

I really love the particle effects and the sound! You also did a good job on the level progression. I really felt it become more challenging, especially once I got to the stars. Would have liked to seen a different font, but still great work!

Nice, well-polished game. However I feel like I'm not in control, and that my failure is tied to the shapes hitting the circles off lucky bounces that are outside my control.

The gamepley is really solid and challeging, i really liked it. I think there is a thing with spacebar and diagonal up because it would sometmes work for me. solid entry!

After playing the tutorial I thought "Really? This is it?" Then when I realized that I could bump pieces to keep them from being destroyed before I got to them I realized I could be strategic which made it lots of fun. Also really like the sound effects!
