I escaped with 48 coins! This is an interesting design, lots of potential for puzzles and I enjoyed most of the ones there. I think with some tweaking it could be a really fun game. Here's some analysis and suggestions, please take this as constructive criticism.

Movement accelerates instantly, even when turning around, and it takes a while to stop rolling, so coming to a stop to stay on a platform is hard. It also makes the shape levitate off a slope if you move downhill. I'd look into making movement accelerate the character instead of instantly setting the velocity. At the same time the top movement speed seemed too slow, and the gravity a bit too low.

I'm not sure how much of this was intended, but it seemed like shape sometimes just wouldn't jump when I pressed the button, especially the non-circle shapes. Maybe these leave the ground even when they seem to be rolling because of the edges?

I kept getting confused which blocks would let only one shape through and which would block only one shape. There was one place (the yellow platform just before the 25 coins door) where the platform appeared and disappeared depending on your current shape, consistently doing that might have helped. Another possibility: If a block doesn't allow a shape to pass through, show that shape crossed out (like a "No Smoking" sign).

I'm not sure how the "25 coins" door is supposed to work. When I first saw it I assumed I needed to get 25 coins to pass through it, but once I had 25 coins it blocked me. Not sure if it would have blocked me if I tried it earlier. After I died I went back with < 25 coins and got through, leave the bonus coin area still with < 25 coins; later I came back with > 25 coins to check if it would block me again, but it just let me through. Maybe this got into a weird state after respawning, or maybe it only blocks you with exactly 25 coins, if the latter that makes little sense.

There seems to be exactly one place you can die. Given that there was a blind fall earlier this felt unfair, especially since it completely resets progress. I almost gave up after I fell for that.

It's occasionally irritating to need to switch to another shape family first to "downgrade", such as to switch from the heavy square to the normal square, or from the white circle to the yellow circle (in order to pass through a white block).

After playing all the way through I still couldn't choose shapes without deliberate thought. Does the onscreen layout S,E,W correspond to some keyboard layout? It definitely doesn't match with QWERTY.

You almost lost me on the sequence of jumps near the end where you have to keep switching shape, sometimes in midair. (Not the ramp, that was fun enough, when I was able to make the square jump.) When I would mistakenly make the switch before jumping, I'd begin to fall, and I'd have to flail trying to find the right shape to catch a platform. This was probably just the right amount of difficulty, but it'd be easier if the shape selection was more natural.

This is an interesting game. It’s got some elements of metroidvania, but, as you say is more of a puzzle platformer. Some enemies might have changed that around. Even ones that don’t react to the player but are more like moving hazards could have flipped this into metroidvania territory. But, by the sound of the background music, we’re going for something more relaxed.

I’d say the one thing that would improve this game the most is the controls. They’re floaty and sluggish. Tighter controls would also allow for some timing challenges too perhaps.

I fell into a chasm and had to restart. This detracted from the enjoyment and I actually stopped playing at this point. I didn’t see any save spots in the game. I would either add some of those, or just return players to a previous position when they fall into a chasm. Otherwise players will think your game is unfair.

Our game is decidedly less relaxed. But we hope we didn’t make it too difficult. We would love to get as much feedback as possible about that and anything else players think about our game! So, please give our game a try and let us know what you think! Thanks!

★ Enjoyment: 4/5

The game is fun, but there are parts that I'd like the shape to jump but the game won't let me

★ Design: 5/5

The usage of barriers and platforms depending on what shape you are using is quite creative and actually kinda neat

★ Presentation: 4/5

Simplistic and has its own charm.

OH MY GOD 😂 i never knew playing with basic shapes would be so much fun

its like playschool but at an advanced level XD

there is nothing extraordinary with the graphics or the sound or anything like that but the level design 👌 amazed with the design of the game. 

great job!!!!! <3

Pretty much everything dan collins said below. It's a bit sluggish, but fit the calmness of the piano track. I got quite far and then died and had to start completely over, which was a bit of a downer. Some kind of checkpoint system would have been great.

As you said, time was the real killer here. A little more haptic feedback (sound effects etc.), maybe a little faster movement, and more than one song and this would have made this so much better.

I quite enjoyed this game. The music made it relaxing and something about the square rolling around was appealing to me right away. I think the puzzles are well thought out and discovering what the secondary abilities could do was cool.

My biggest gripe was with the controls. The feeling of rolling along was nice—for some reason the inertia felt good to me here—but the jumps were where the gameplay becomes frustrating. It felt like it would often have a hard time detecting whether the shape was grounded or not, so I'd often not get a jump from keypress because the shape had just bounced off the ground slightly.

Overall a  pleasing, slower-paced experience compared to many of the typical actiony types pf submissions.
