This game is patterned before the famous game "Color Switch". I made it for this year's LudumDare #35 with the theme "Shapeshift".
The theme is very challenging since I wasn't really expecting it, haha, but, still, made it through! :D
Instructions:
Press the Left Mouse Button to shapeshift! :D
Don't forget to enjoy and try not to get pissed! ;)

I love the concept, but the controls makes the game too difficult, as you have to remember which shape comes next.
I get it's a game designed for mobile, but at least two buttons would have make the game more suitable for PC.
Nice game and mechanics! I find the controls a little bit uncomfortable though, it is not easy to remember the sequence of shapes.
Difficult game, but fun! A simple concept. It would be better if you could tell which shape you were going to hit, rather than try and figure it out in the last second.
jesus cripes that's hard :P I got 7. It's very hard to anticipate what the next shape will be sometimes because the falling patterns are so similar it doesn't because obvious whether you'll hit a square or triangle for instance until it's much closer, at which point you have no time to change your mind. I enjoyed it though :)
It is very challenging indeed! Memorizing the sequence of the shapes helps a lot of course :) Enjoyable!
This is really hard. I wish I had more control over what shape I'd turn into rather than cycling through them.
Fun game, and quite a challenge. I did think there were a couple of times where I needed to be 2 shapes at the same time though, which seemed a bit harsh!
Damn, this is hard. I like the idea of the mechanic, but it would be nice if you could reliably pick your next shape. Or at least display the order on screen.
Nice Entry! I like the mechanics and the sound effects. The difficulty is quite hard. It tooke me several approaches just to beat level 1. Nevertheless, well done! I could imagine this being really funny on mobile devices.
It could have been much better with a little more control over which shape to choose. Sometimes you couldn't tell what shape to switch to until the last second and that led to being unable to switch in time (if it happened to be too many shapes away from what you were currently). Other than that, I liked it.
Very nice concept and audio! But as others have already pointed out, some more control to what shape you'll turn into would be nice! Still, great work!
simple game. It was okay, but not phenomenal.
just a sort of middling game.
Maybe add a 'Previous shape' for right-mouse.
Good game, but I would like to have some easier figures at the beginning. It's pretty hard and many players can quit very quickly. It would be also nice to assign shapes to keys / buttons.

Mini Submission FAQ
TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.
CAN I ENTER BOTH EVENTS?: You should pick 1 event, whichever you think it’ll do better in. If the idea is strong, and everything plays well enough, you can go Compo. If you’re a perfectionist, and would prefer people to play a more polished game, do the Jam. Historically, more games are entered in the Compo, but with more people and more time, Jam games have the potential to be better (that doesn’t mean they are). Many solo participants do enter the Jam.
If you made 2 games, unfortunately, the website doesn’t support multiple submissions per user. To submit your 2nd game, you will have to make a 2nd account. Only do this if you made 2 games. Alternatively, if one game is better than the other, then consider just entering the better game.
CAN I KEEP WORKING UNTIL THE DEADLINE?: Yes! Immediately after the 48 or 72 hours, we do something called Submission Hour. As the name suggests, it’s an extra hour for you to package, upload, and submit your games. If there were catastrophic issues trying submitting your game, or you misunderstood how submissions work, that’s okay. It happens. We’re flexible. If you need advice, check with the folks on IRC. If you need an admin, get in touch.
CAN I KEEP WORKING ON MY GAME?: Oh definitely! You should! But for the sake of judging, keep the Compo or Jam version around. You can include a link to the Post-Compo/Post-Jam version of your game on your games page, but sure your main links are the original version.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate at least 20 games to improve your visibility (Coolness).
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crashes, win condition, or tiny bugs after the deadline. In a sense, this is like “porting” to support more players. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just fixing mistakes you should have caught had you been better rested.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up. Alternatively, if you just posted it, wait a minute. The cache may not have refreshed yet.
NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
Really challenging game! :) I included it in my video compliation series of Ludum Dare games, if you’d like to check them out :) https://youtu.be/NUKW4hicpYU
