Cool idea. Took a while to understand what I was doing and I had to open another instance of the game in another tab to remind myself of the controls. Odd control scheme. Needed at least a help button and maybe on-screen buttons that mapped to the actions. Good job!

i'm not sure if i playing it right...maybe some zoom out and less camera movement will be great
but i catch main idea of building level and i think it can be very fun

I like the visuals. The glowing effect highlights the emptiness of the playing field.

It isn't clear how to play at first. There's not much to tell you what you'll be controlling or what you're aiming for, but the trial and error is part of the fun.

Took a bit to grasp the controls. Would have really helped if it had said on the instructions that once you press enter it turns into a platformer game.

The random movement of the objects was kind of tedious for me (Would have definitely preferred a click and drag kind of placement) but interesting concept!

I liked the style, I figured out how to play for a long time. For all my comments, you might think I'm stupid. Cool idea

I think this has the potential to be great, but I think placing the shaes should be a little easier

I think the movement of the player is challenging, but it can be pretty hard to remember how it moves in the first place depending on the shape. Good entry.

Looks cool, and I like the idea of the game. But I spent a long time building a level, and then died instantly because I hadn't placed the level early enough.
But I like the idea and I think you could make a cool game out of it.

Glow effect on the shapes are cool. But have no idea whats going on apart fom placing a bunch of shapes. Think I might have missed something.

I dig the music!! I had a great experience playing this game, the shader looks great, maybe a little too much bloom but I won't complain! Would be nice to have a little bit more control over the building blocks! Good luck, I hope to see you in the next jam!
