I really like this idea, and the dystopian vibe that you gave the game with its music and aesthetic. My one complaint, which might just be on my end, is that it can be a bit hard to make out my mouse cursor against the harsh black-and-white background.

Great game, I laughed out loud the first time shapes came out instead of people! I love the frantic sorting gameplay, awesome job!

Behind The HeistI like the game but when i need to sort by the color of their pants i can't see what color is it because the pixels are so few.

Spaceship Ico JamYooo, this is fantastic! I think this party-game concept is really cool on its own, and with the addition of cute little animations, the game earned a bunch of character. It was a bit disrupting to stop and read the small category text each round, but scrambling to get the little guys and shapes into the correct sides was undoubtedly a lot of fun. With some polish to the artwork and music (which was a great addition to add to the whimsical intensity), I could see this being even more great! But overall, amazing work - I loved the small details of the characters wobbling around when you pick them up, very good :P
It’s a really fun game. The only thing I would improve is the art but all in all Well Done!

EniPatternIt would help to have little symbols or colors next to the text on the bottom to quickly identify the searched pattern. It feels pretty good when the characters stand in the correct place and you can basically speedrun the round. It's also a nice touch that the characters move, otherwise it would probably be too easy.

Occult DetectiveGreat game and I liked most levels but to be honest the game play felt best when there were the little guys, and the shapes part felt like it didn't fit

Sketchy TowersVery fun! The focus required was intense in a good way, and the characters moving around was a nice touch. The artstyle looks good, and the adaptive music really adds to the flowstate. My only suggestion would be to make the instructions for each category more central.
Reminds me of an old minigame from New Super Mario Bros on the DS!

SquareswapFunnily enough Sort or 'Splode was kinda my inspiration for this game! Fair point about the UI though - will remember that for next time
The idea is simple and efficient, The little guys running everywhere are very funny.
The time setting may be too short, or I'm too slow? I tried several times and always run out of time with the geometric shapes.

Flat Solids WorldTook me a short minute to understand how to play, and when I did I found it quite fun!
It's a game that requires you to focus on the details of these small people, and drag them around to the correct side.
the variations of the little dudes and attention for details is fun, and the fact they move around makes your life not much easier, in a good way! if the people were bigger, or the middle part was smaller it would have been a little easier to sort them.
Fun game, interesting take on the theme, well executed code and fun derpy characters.
