I would like to have more variations in the music because it turned me quickly mad

The game play is solid, but that music is driving me nuts.

Yeah, a great entry - we did nearly the same ;-)

But was fun and challenging and it looked quite polished.
Good work!

Nice! It has a smooth learning curve to it and feels satisfying when you do well on the harder difficulty. I had fun. The music was a missed opportunity, would have preferred an upbeat number to keep me pumped!

Looks amazing, awesome visual style. I love all the polish that's been put into it. Gameplay reminds me of those Japanese game shows where the dudes need to fit into the right shape before the moving wall hits them.

Nice! Very similar to our idea so I loved checking out how you did it. Nice pass through effects!

Nice job! Had a hard time getting used to looking ahead, not at my shape. Made it into the final stage

A simple idea with awesome implementation. Looks and sounds fantastic.
I would probably make the pitch shift a bit less for the music.

this is a great game, even though i can only do the 3 shapes, i really like this game.

Fantastic job. I used the same concept, but your use of color grading (I assume), good UI, and clever "play it again" techniques, like the local high score, are all very, very good additions.

Simple, but effective. The gameplay is solid and it starts right back up so you can just try and try again.

Kind of like my own game! (http://ludumdare.com/compo/ludum-dare-35/?action=preview&uid=63679) But executed differently.
In particular I like how the difficulty ramps up by introducing extra shapes over time.
Looks well, plays well, sounds well (the speed-up audio is a cool touch),.

I like the atmosphere with the psychedelic colors. Btw nice choices for the shapes (I chose the exact same 4 for my game xD)

I have seen many games like this, but yours is very polished. Effects, colors and sounds are great. The music speed which is modified during a game is a good idea. You have chosen a good perspective so as to clear gameplay. A solid entry. Well done ++

The effects and visuals give that one a really nice feel, good work!

I've played a couple of variations of this concept so far, but this was the trippiest and most satisfying to play. Very well polished, one of my favorites.

Awesome entry!

Really well done arcade game. Congratulations. Interesting and gripping albeit simple gameplay, good music and nothing to complain about the graphics.

The only thing it missed, really, was innovation, BUT...
You were able to give us an incredible, well-polished entry, and that's great.

Nice game and music, but a little bit fast :)

2436! Solid game, and pretty cool. The only downside is the "pause button" that is located where the new shapes are coming. Otherwise pretty cool sounds/music with the acceleration!

Nice game! Perhaps music is a tad too repetitive, graphics are well done!

Nice work, the camera was a little shaky and the point of view shifting back a little as you get faster would be nice.

Nice touch with the audio speed increasing as well.
Funny how we got quite similar ideas!

Fun, solid game play. The audio ramping up with the speed was a nice touch. Addictive, too!
