I can't vote now, as controls aren't working for me. But music sounds nice and graphics are cool too.

This game is lacking gameplay depth, as besides spamming the key you're assigned to in hopes of not being crashed is the only mechanic of playing. I feel like you could do more in three days, and that with a bunch of additions to gameplay, this could become a pretty interesting game. However, this doesn't have anything to do with the theme of the game jam for all I've noticed, which is "Shapeshift".
The graphics and sound are pretty nice though- even though the music is bit boring after a while.

This was way too much fun! For such a simple concept it's great, and the graphics and music are quite good. Excellent work!

I like the game, just wish there was some way I could play it without a buddy. Great sound, great gameplay, cool idea. Still wish it had tied into the theme, but since you don't even have that as a rated category I guess you didn't even plan on that hahaha! Still, a cool little game.

Fun to play with a friend. Got heated. lol Nice work. I like that you took the theme shapeshift literally as shifting a shape. ^_^

Pretty fun lol, played with my roommate. I like the graphics, this would be a cool mini game in collaboration with other mini games as a post-mortem project

Cool concept! I like how sometimes the paddles really speed up.

Unfortunately requires a second player to get the most out of. Playing solo is a bit strange.

Note some people remark that this game has no tie to the theme. I tend to disagree: you are indeed *shifting shapes* around.

I don't understand how does the game relates with the Theme, but i did have lots of fun playing it. Competitive, simple and quick, perfect to play and enjoy with friends. Music is also cool, graphics nice but could've been more worked out. Nice Job!

Hi! I think your game has the perfect fit for a jam: simple controls, easy to understand and funny. Music and art are very good too. The only lack is the jam theme, not so much shapeshifting here hehehe. Congrats!

Simple but fun, music is great. Maybe different arena designs would have giving it a bit more depth.
Nevertheless great work!
