It actually took me quite a while to figure out that I couldn't use the rotation to rotate the characters so they faced the direction that seemed logical but that finding the right orientation was a challenge itself. Or if that was not intended, we definitely don't agree on the expected rotation pattern. The fish I kept trying to point its head by using the left control, the giraffe, its head (so their origins are 90 degrees rotated in my mind). If what direction on the left stick maps to what rotation was intended as a puzzle too, then I would suggest adding that complexity a bit later in the game and add some more time between the first couple of patterns to help people starting out with the game.

My biggest issue was that I was mapping rotation relative to the shape, so for example I kept trying to push right twice to make it pointing up, rather than selecting the correct orientation. This may just be a product of experience using the controller and expecting the analog stick to work in a relative way. It would be interesting to find a way to support both and detect which the player is trying to do, BUT that may cause complications since you have a leaderboard (if one method is inherently easier than the other) so maybe not. Or another thing you could do is isolate the two controls in the beginning, like start off with a single shape that you just have to choose orientation on so people can get used to that before adding both of them together, that might actually clear up a lot. There was a point where the music felt like it was syncing to the movement of the shape holes and it was REALLY COOL feeling. If you had a way of doing that on purpose it might get super interesting results.

The game never gets easy.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>It took me a minute to realize that all of the figures are facing left.  Knowing that helps a lot when it gets faster - there's not any time to look at the guides in the corners.  But it's still hard to quickly translate the direction they're facing to the right key.  It's especially difficult with the more horizontal figures, like the fish and the dog (I think it's a dog).  The standing figures like the man and the giraffe are much easier - you just point in the direction of their head.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Smooth animation, great UI, very polished all around.  I just realized that &quot;press [down arrow] to begin&quot; is written in a font made from tangram pieces - slick.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I'll keep coming back to this one,... and I'm gonna beat Tommy's score :)"},{"author_name":"SantiHisteria","author_uid":"59433","time":"May 9, 2016 @ 3:09pm","epoch":1462806240,"text":"I like it!
