Runs fine in Chrome on Windows 7 :)

Nice, smooth transitions for the shapes, and I liked the colour palette chosen. Definitely a game that could get challenging to keep up with. It'd be great to try out on a mobile device, and its UI seems to have been designed well around that :)

Cool looking game and smooth i could play for a whiled it was fun but after that it was almost imposible because at the start of the game the spawn rate of the shapes was to high that i died almost immediately!

It's not a bad game, it's just that it is very similar to alot of the other games that also want you to match shapes. Now you couldn't have seen this comming, but it sadly makes your game and so many other games that are alike not as fun since there's not just one game to pick from but multiple.

You could also have worked on the spawning of the shapes. It seemed that sometimes 2 different shapes would come at almost the exact same time which made it impossible to collect both of them.

After playing some more it seems that it is pretty unplayable since you dont have any time to change shapes fast enough pretty much most of the time. Therefor I am lowering my rating a bit.

Nice, simple and clean.
Controls with the arrows is a good idea but the corresponding shapes should be displayed somewhere on screen once the player start using them (around the central shape with low alpha maybe?).
I liked it.

Really nice game! I like that it's simple but quite hard to master. Love the graphics and the smooth gameplay. Well done! After a few rounds the shapes really do come quick!

Really nice and polished! 60fps, and very playable! I like the way the shape smoothly morphs.

solid game, but sometimes impossible to win (shapes coincidentally spawning at the same time)

I think the spawn of enemies drastically rises after each restart, making the game almost unbeatable! It's a shame though, as it looks like a professional mobile game. Just lacks some audio and it needs some polish on the difficulty (more like a debug ^^), and you're good to go :) Well done!

It seems like this is a bug, but each time you retry the shapes start spawning faster and faster to the point where after a couple of retries it's completely impossible to play. Barring that it's a cool simple game - first thing on my wishlist would be keyboard controls.

Beautiful, a bit of finetuning is needed for the frequency, it gets difficult very fast.
Well done.
(congratulations for your baby :) )

Grało się przyjemnie, do czasu aż po kilku przegranych kształty zaczęły nadlatywać z ogromną częstotliwością i nachodziły na siebie wręcz. Może to ma związek z przeglądarką, grałem na firefoxie. Pozdrawiam rodaka :).

I've finally fixed the bug when you restarted the game and got way too many shapes coming at you.
