Something like having the player use a color slider to match the color rather than cycling through colors.

It might work better if you add extra shapes to copy, ex shape 1 triangle red, shape 2 sphere blue. then the player copies first shape 1 then shape 2. \r<br\/>\r<br\/>Also I prefer one button for triangle, one for cube, one for sphere instead of cycling between them. But I think its just a matter of taste.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>overall a elegant game :)"},{"author_name":"ElliotFiske","author_uid":"15847","time":"May 3, 2016 @ 4:08am","epoch":1462248180,"text":"Fun game! It's really satisfying to learn the pattern and become a shape-matching god. \r<br\/>\r<br\/>It did seem to never go above 3 shapes at a time though, and I just was able to keep going until 70 points, then called it quits. It would've been cool to see 4 shapes or even more, but maybe I'm just a glutton for punishment ;)\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Great job!"},{"author_name":"ObsessiveNotion","author_uid":"92905","time":"May 4, 2016 @ 4:38pm","epoch":1462379580,"text":"Felt a bit too difficult"}],"images":["ld35\/60097-235fee944290b665f011764c11865ff9.jpg","ld35\/60097-e09e77d77938b8939591f1116bf26bff.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/gamesbycandlelight.itch.io\/ludum-dare-35-shape-shifter-match-maker","text":"Windows"},{"url":"https:\/\/gamesbycandlelight.itch.io\/ludum-dare-35-shape-shifter-match-maker","text":"OS\/X"},{"url":"https:\/\/gamesbycandlelight.itch.io\/ludum-dare-35-shape-shifter-match-maker","text":"Linux"},{"url":"https:\/\/gamesbycandlelight.itch.io\/ludum-dare-35-shape-shifter-match-maker","text":"Source"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"4083","g_author":"60097","g_event":"LD35","g_eventkey":"33","g_subevent":"COMPO","g_urlkey":"4181","g_title":"Shape Shifter Match Maker","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"752","g_commentcount":"17","g_site2_node_id":"0","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":[],"node":null,"orig_images":["http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/542293\/60097-shot0-1460929240.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/542293\/60097-shot1-1460929240.png-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"Press the Shape and Color buttons to match the shape at the top.
