Pay careful attention and PRACTICE on the intro screen!

Hint: Get the color right first, then the shape.

Really challenging, but rewarding when you get the shapes and colours right. A simple concept well executed. Good work! :)

Absolutely captivating gameplay. Simple core mechanic that works really well. It takes some time to master it. Great work. I feel this would work really well on mobile platforms with a touch screen.

Took me a few minutes to really grasp the controls, but I am pleased to report a score of 224. Really difficult, really enjoyed it!

102 points. It's really hard. XD
I feel like the particles coming from the square do not belong there. I recommend replacing them with larger particles in any post versions.

I enjoyed it! Difficulty when first starting is pretty high, but rewarding once I mastered it!

It's bit bit awkward switching from thinking about the shape you need for a door (match) and the shape you need for an enemy (opposite). Also a bit unfair when an enemy is right behind a door and there's not enough time to react! Interesting idea though.

Nice game. At first was hard but then it becomes easy. I bit similar to mine actually :). +1

Nice game! I really like the concept, but the whole pyramid scheme seems just a tad bit overly complicated and the enemies put themselves in front of the games, which makes it almost impossible to shift.

The game's good, but that shape shifting mechanic against the enemies is really difficult to take a hold on.

Interesting gameplay. Maybe too hard for me. The controls are smooth. Really addictive. It could be funny on mobile device. Well done ++

It's a little awkward to play with a QWERTZ keyboard :/
But the concept is good and executed well!

Cool !

When I first saw the shift&Z switching triangle, I felt like I was going to die.

It turned out okay ! I had awesome one digit-scores in my first tries, but once I got used to it, it felt great.

Interesting idea. And it was actually very addicting (I got a score of 939. Not very related, I just wanted to brag). A little frustrating sometimes (often) when a door and a enemy come at the same time, but the player can live with it (good job making a door fail not instant death).

Having to be in the opposite of an enemy to beat him is a good idea. Makes your brain melt in the first few minutes).

There was audio and particle effects : Cool !

A little repetitive after a few try, and the game play is limited... But I played your game anyway, strange...

Good job !

Found it to be very difficult because there was to many shapes to shape shift into

Challenging, but still great gameplay! Continue improving :)

I enjoyed it. The clear visuals and tight controls made memorizing all the different shapes and their positions within the triangle very easy.
