The world is encroaching on your minimalist space. Your aim to to rid the world of coloured blocks until only you remain.
The player is in the centre. It will fire bullets of the same colour. Bullets will destroy blocks of the same colour. If a bullet hits a block not of the same colour, the player's colour changes to that of the block.
Like Solitaire, it is possible for the game to be un-winable but skilful play minimises this chance.
Keys: Q = Rotate walkable area left E = Rotate walkable area right Arrows = Move and fire Return = Restart if you get stuck.
Like the game, interesting idea. Maybe some background music and fast gameplay (Just kidding on the latter) could be good. This is one of those few slow gameplay games on this one. Like it!
Like the concept, would be nice to have a bit more pressure with the blocks slowly but constantly moving towards you, though definitely a surprise the first jump. Would have liked it to always give me a color I could use so I can't get in a state where I'm just waiting for death. Have the blocks reaching you be the only losing factor.
I thought that the idea was fairly original for 'fling block' games, but I also found it a tad superficial and too easy to get stuck. It is a thinking game, but I felt that the mechanic wasn't all to fun. That said, you did a good job at bringing the whole idea together, and feel that with some work it could turn out a lot more rounded. Unique twist, but not completely sure a twist I enjoy.
Great game, fits the theme well. Some music would be a nice addition

It's weird, on the surface this looks like a typical shooting game, but it's actually a really clever puzzle game. I've never had to think so much trying to shoot things... Cool stuff!
Very smart gameplay idea, but you may be hesitating too much between reflexes and reflexion. It's some kind of puzzle game, you have to think to avoid being unable to finish it, yet the cubes just come in, encouraging a faster reaction. So I shot everywhere and didn't think that much, because doing both would be too difficult (or maybe you need some more tutorial levels or a difficulty ramp with several levels).
Yet it is hard to achieve such reflexion in 48h :) And the overall experience is pleasant, the sfx are good. Well done.
Very innovative concept. I was thinking the swap key would ruins the control but infact it's very intuitive. The problem is the color lock : You should either detect the no-possible-move situation and kill the player or adding a key to swap your color ( in counterpart of a block move for example )

Is it published to Linux with Unity4 ?
I got stuck more than I'd like to admit. But it gets addictive after a little while.
