I like the mechanics--it's not something I've seen used a lot in puzzle games, the puzzles ease you into it, and it takes some thinking to work out even after you know the mechanics. I feel like there's a lot more potential puzzles in it.

A simple yet interesting idea. I finished all 10 levels and was disappointed there weren't more. I was just getting the hang of it. I like it. More puzzles please.

Really nice puzzle game! I got through all ten levels on my first playthrough by pressing random shapes. I played through again the second time to figure out the rules. Strangely enough, I did worse when I actually tried to figure out the rules, but I was able to figure out the rules by trial and error on the 9th and 10th stages. I actually had a Notepad++ open to jot down the effects of each shape/color combination. I won't share it here to keep from spoiling it for others. It would be nice to see this game expanded to a larger grid of shapes.

Really loved your game this is simple intuitive, it's very cool.
Just missing a background music but for a compo entry it's really cool.

Really nice puzzle game. I'm not sure I entirely figured out the rules be the end though :)

I have no idea how the mechanics works , but i finished all ten levels quite quick. An explanation of them would help . I'd of played much longer if there were more levels

Fun game, sadly it was too short for me to understand the mechanics, I played quite randomly and was starting to understand when the game stop. Still a nice concept

Interesting idea. I have to confess that, even if I completed all 10 levels, I'm not yet exactly sure of what the rules are.

I like the idea, deliberately not explaining the rules is an interesting way to go and it has potential - but I found it too easy to just get through with gut feeling and trial and error. I got to the end without ever understanding how...

Natural tutorials are definitely the way to go! If there were more levels people would enjoy this game a lot more I think.

Well, I played to level 9 yet still dont understand the rules...

Reminds me of the card game memory. I could get away with trial and error for most of the game - would be a better game if it forced you to learn what was happening.

Interesting game mechanics. I like the idea of discovering the rules step by step. I miss some kind of background music :)
