* Description
My first ever Ludum Dare entry, this is a simple game, you select a difficulty out of 4, then select what level you want to play at that difficulty, then you use the number, 8,9,0 to select which shape to change, and use the numbers 1,2,3 to change between the 4 shapes of square, circle and triangle, then you simply match the shapes before they reach the bottom, if they don't match, you lose! be careful, the game isn't as easy as you think except if you play it on easy.

Tools Used *
-Audacity
-Unity 3D
-Illustrator
-Monodevelop C#

I'm not going to rate because it seems a bit buggy. I can't click the buttons all of the time and the "You Lose" shows up on the main menu.

Cool game! I would have liked some background music of something, however.

Wow this is very hard. Its a cool idea though. Good approach on the theme. Good Work.

Like the concept alot. And the game-play is fun. But the GUI is straight up broken. The mouse position is not set properly... as well as other things. The actual game is fun though

Well this was one of the hardest games to get into that i ever played. the controls are what made me stop playing the game. :/

This works very nicely. I like the mechanic

greymouth18 Apr 2016, 02:45

I like the idea but the interfacing is a bit harsh

Khallane18 Apr 2016, 02:46

Nice idea. Some tweaking to difficulty perhaps. Coudn't do level10

ViliX6418 Apr 2016, 02:47

Somehow harder to grasp the concept, but interesting entry. :)

Well, the game is nice and challenging! i really liked that, but try now to fix the bugs in the menu...the click area of the buttons is out of place (we have to move the cursor to a little left to each button to press them correcly). Also, like someone else said, i think some more sounds (i mean sounds effect) would made this better too.

Good sounds. Wish that the falling shape mattered more in the decision making but still fun.

Great! Super hard tho, but great learning curve at the start.

Decent game. Higher levels are too fast for my reflexes in medium and hard difficulty. In Hard, at early levels, the hardest part is to get the first shapes done correctly. Maybe it should give the player a couple of seconds to understand the shapes before sending in the first wave.

Other than that, congratulations on your first attempt in Ludum Dare. You've made a nice game. :)

Oh my lord the controls. This is not easy and not in a good way. 890 are not really used... well, anywhere. Arrow keys would be a much better choice, for they are easier both to reach and to operate. Or JKL and make the arrows "go to the left" and "go to the right".
The idea is there. All it needs is polishing up.

Challenging, the harder the better in this case of game, because you get out of it like the king of the reflexes haha!
Cool concept and nice aplication! Well done.
