Drag is a minimalist skill game where you try to last as long as you can before you inevitably fail. Simple, but might take a little trial and error to learn the rules.
Nice job! The game fits the theme and makes me want to keep trying to beat my score. I didn't understand what to do at first, but the hints helped with that :).
Nice game. I was trying to control using WASD and arrow keys at first - but as I recalled the name of the game, I grabbed my mouse and dragged the squares. ^_^ That they disappeared faster and faster was a bit unexpected, so I lost at around ~19,000 points on my first try. D: It was a bit hard to position the mouse to drag the squares, but this could actually turn out a nice game for a touchscreen device. :)
I managed level 7, 20614 points on my first play. I'm a sucker for little skill games like this. Even if it is a little carpal tunnel happy, I had fun playing it! Enjoyed the strange drone sounds too. :D
Though simple, this game can quickly become addicting. I had no trouble figuring out what to do, although I think a rapid visual change to accompany the sound effect might make it even more intuitive. As others have said, this game would work much better on a touchscreen. Overall, cool idea and execution!
This reminds me of the minigame Sort or 'Splode (from Super Mario 64 DS and New Super Mario Bros.). I think the game could have been more fun to play if it didn't simply degrade to having to move my mouse more and more quickly and accurately, but it certainly does fit the theme. It's the kind of game which has potential to be very fun to play with more polish and interesting ideas.

This is addictive and fun, and a great take on the theme. My only complaint is that the audio volume was a bit annoying, those squareish waves have a lot of harmonics and tend to sound very harsh, so lowering the amplitude (or filtering high frequencies) is a must. But that

... but that's very minor, overall it's a nice entry, I enjoyed it.

I might say that I could have had maybe 1-3 more seconds on each level. Gets really tough fast :D
