This is actually peak!!!! Only think I wish it was a little clearer what shapes you were grabbing. Also I think it’d be neat if the artstyle was a little more corporate cuz I think it’d be funny, more of a personal taste tho. Regardless, I think this is genuinely really fun from such a simple gameplay loop!!

Developer

I’m not the best at pixel art, or art in general, so the style is simple as a result of that. 

Developer

Also I can for sure give the shapes a golden outline or something when you’re carrying them

Well done. Congrats and good luck. Is there a reason to choose the negative powers and I just missed it?

Developer(+1)

Negative upgrades exist to limit how many positive upgrades you can get. If you get unlucky, you'll be forced to take a negative. Positive upgrades also get rarer every wave beyond wave 10. They exist purely for balance.

Ah that makes sense. Thanks!

Shape, roguelike, neuron activation.

Fun little chaos machine – the simple “sort the shapes” premise ramps up into a really tense arcade loop. The upgrades plus occasional weird interactions (ghosts, clumps, accidental auto-sorter) keep it feeling fresh and replayable. The chunky visuals, bouncy music, and petty post-firing insults give it a ton of personality. I do question the length of the intro though — some visitors may not have enough patience to sit through it. Also, picking up and dragging small items across a large screen feels a bit tiring. But a great job otherwise.

Developer

I'm assuming by "intro" you mean the tutorial. The tutorial only appears the first time you start the game, and even then you can skip it. I suppose if you're playing on HTML with cookies disabled it might get annoying, but other than that I'm not sure.

Its a pretty good game. I wish that the silos were closer to the edges so flinging was better, and the clump detection is bugged bad (there were times where clumped shapes were pushing each other around but not picking them up), but youve got a good shot at making it in!

Developer

Godot tries to apply moving platform logic when shapes slide together, I couldn’t figure out how to turn it off

This game was really fun and very chaotic. I had a run where I had ghost shapes and shapes clump together, so I effectively had an auto sorter. I really like how simple the concept is, yet how repayable and enjoyable everything is.

The game is very fun and challenging, the game starts getting more and more chaotic and demanding over time as you get more upgrades which is a great gameplay loop. The art and audio are nice, and the game was pretty creative and fun. The video pitch is very funny and clearly shows the game's mechanics. Great game, 4s and 5s.

simple, addicting, stressful. all my favorite things. Getting that rare powerup like the bumping shape change one is the kind of thing that keeps you coming back. I only made it to wave seven lol. very fun.

Gives sm64 ds minigame vibes, 10/10

That's actually the main inspiration!

Probably the simplest out of all the games I've tried so far. May also be my favorite so far. The video pitch was funny and well made and low quality. The game is just plain good. The little dialog in game is well written and funny. All around great
