(HIT GREEN FLAG TWICE) (THIS IS MY FIRST GAME EVER)

Z and X change amount of sides, Space or Click fires circles towards your mouse cursor. Play in Turbo Mode for pros! (shift-click green flag)

You can only fire the amount of circles equivalent to your side count.

consequently, the more sides you have, the bigger of a target you are.

Give me suggestions in the comments. Made in the Game Jam Ludum Dare for the Shape Shifting theme. Should be positively recognized as a simplistic game.

very interesting game. i dont know if ive ever seen a scratch game on ludum dare, so good job with the tools you used! Playing in turbo mode really makes this an interesting experience haha
the music was really good, and the shape shifting mechanic was pretty interesting. nice job

Fairly fun game, I started getting FPS towards the end, though.

The menu music is awesome! Very chipper and funky. Simple controls are intuitive and fun. Though does gameplay go on forever?

Well, I took the title as a challenge, and that was probably a mistake. :P Ended up with so many shapes on screen that the game was lagging something awful. X) Didn't even get a score at the end!
No idea what it's got to do with the theme, but an interesting challenge in prioritisation and I enjoyed it. :)

Very nice! The game is simple, but it feels good, and that kept me playing for a while.

Great music and fun game.

When you play for a while it turns to a real challenge!

The music is awesome! Really simplistic, but pretty fun (especially for your first game ever). Only real problem was that it kept slowing down, which made it difficult to play.
