Really fun game, great to see what you guys achieved in only 48 hours, it looks polished and professional! Great gameplay although I did encounter a bug where the level didn't end after the wall had come forwards. No idea what went wrong! Nice work guys

The idea, music and graphics is great. But game is a bit buggy.

Very good, polished game. I really like the music and graphics. It's a little hard to see the hole shapes in the wall because it's so far away, but I found that if you just stick to the cube, you'll usually be fine.

Web version doesn't work. Windows version worked. Graphics/audio were enjoyable. I had an issue when attempting to stack blocks where the block would fall off and it wasn't possible to stack it again. I don't know if that was intended or not. Overall solid entry, well done.

I should add that the web version doesn't work specifically in chrome but it seems to be fine in firefox.

Cool game. Nice theme implementation ("little bit" slower than mine :D )

It definitely needs to be polished for a start; there were a lot of bugs and the placement felt a little off/dodgy, as well as the bouncing of the shapes. Past that though it looks quite good and feel very similar to old game layouts like 'Tetris Worlds' and the sort. Very nice. Perhaps add a splash of colour to the blocks?

You should put your web version up on a proper host, rather than just offering a download zip.

Nice job. Web version to download is not the right way to do this xD Could just use Dropbox and get the public url, works fine.
About the game, you should use only cubes. Many times the shapes collided strangely and dropped one behind the other.

A lot of small bugs that could be easily removed to make a very pleasant game.

Really cool idea! I don't know if the win/lose logic worked correctly, seeing as how the game said I won a lot of the times when some of the shapes got swept away by the wall. Most of the time I could also use any shape to get through, so I didn't get much use out of the switching mechanic.

Still, a competent puzzle game with a nice tune to it. Oh, and a pretty clever start screen. :)
