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 :)
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.
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.
Well done.
(congratulations for your baby :) )
