Shape Factory by adrian09_01

[raw]
made by adrian09_01 for LD35 (JAM)
Shape Factory is a game about shapeshifting shapes in a factory. The factory press is in a bad state and you've been hired to work as a turret operator. Destroy the unwanted blocks and make the shapes fit into the holes. The rest isn't your job.

The control scheme is a bit complicated:
left/right arrows - control the top and bottom turrets
up/down arrows - control the left and right turrets
W - shoot down from the top turret
S - shoot up from the bottom turret
A - shoot right from the left turret
D - shoot left from the right turret
Enter - select options in menu

All game assets were made by me while daring, almost nothing was recycled or stolen except the bitmap font, which was made by me 3 years ago.

Nice and simple. Took a while to understand bc I'm a bit stupid, but good job!

Cute idea, but the fact that I have a big monitor made it pretty much unplayable at that tiny resolution. Also, shooting up didn't seem to work for me. The music was really good and I think there is potential here for a pretty cool mobile game.

It's really hard for me to say anything more constructive just because it was so small that I had trouble seeing what I was doing.

Shooting works only when the appropriate turret isn't obstructed by blocks.

It should be a little more difficult. Also screen resolution is a real eye-strainer

Nice Game. The Soundtrack is pretty neat. Maybe the could be a little bit harder. I know the shapes are getting faster, but veeery slowly ;)

Fantastic audio, reminded me of Transport Tycoon. Being able to upscale the graphics would have been great. But it was really fun and a great concept. Good job :)

very interesting game. Totally didn't think a game could be made like this, but it is! xD cool. nice tracks, you can select different ones in the menu. Would have liked to know my score though after i died. I really didn't ever use the bottom turret.
