Shapes rain down in groups of 3. Touch 3 identical shapes, then click to delete them.
If you wait, you can delete 6 rather than 3 for 32pts rather than 4pts.
As the game goes on, more shapes appear, the rows are denser and the speed will slowly increase.
I REALLY LIKE REVIEWS. Tell me your score. Let me know any particular thing you liked and anything you disliked about it. I respond to all reviews.
Time taken to change the prototype into this: around 7h40m.

I'll make the next version easier.
Probably 2 difficulties.
Thanks for the review!

Nice game
The game is a fun and addicting game yet I see this being more aimed towards graphic tablet and table PC users. It does not lend itself well to a customary mouse or touchpad. Also it gets too hard too fast. This does take away from its ability to create replay ability. You mention more points for 6 of the same piece I don't see this possible without a tablet or global position light pen nor is this feasible by the time one sees more than 3 instances of the same object.
The concept is tight but the gameplay needs work.
LuckyLollipopLad responds:
You're absolutely right.
I hadn't used my mouse for quite a few months (though it's still plugged in) and trying it just now, I notice it does seem a lot harder.
I could still get 6 points for the first few shapes (after deleting the initial vertical lines, I got 6 Xs and 6+s but I couldn't survive nearly as long.
I think I see a real need for difficulty levels.
I'll be honing this at some point in the future. Thanks for the really useful review.

Inventive.
It's the innovative games like this one that make me remember why I liked newgrounds in the first place. A simple, yet addicting and original premise. Great work.

Glad you liked it so much!
Your review makes me smile.

Its different...
Well it's very simple to play but I didn't play anything like thhis before. I like the nice ambient music and it gives it a feel of simplicity. Thats what this game is simplicicty and pure beauty. The reason I didn't give it a ten is because my mouse is sensitive and its not easy to go around crawds of +'s or X's. You could probaly make it so that there are arrow keys to control? And not the mouse.
LuckyLollipopLad responds:
The music is indeed awesome. I'd like to use more of LJC's stuff.
I could make it so it uses the arrow keys, but handling it with keys wouldn't make it any easier. I probably wouldn't do this unless I was being sponsored or something.
Glad you liked it regardless though. Another version will probably come at some point in the near future.

Simple, but fun!
Easy as that. The graphics, far to be really difficult, are very simple, good for that. That makes the game, at a first view, rather easy. Big mistake, soon it becomes a hell while you look for the correct shapes to mark. The style is pretty cool, and the music fitted with it. Relaxed stuff for a difficult game, good choice.
I must say I liked this very much because of the simplicity of the gameplay, mixed with the high difficulty.
Great job! Looking foward more!
LuckyLollipopLad responds:
Thanks!
I'd actually like to jazz up the graphics slightly, with different 'skins' and some paper textures and stuff.
Glad you enjoyed it.
More will definitely come!
Thanks for the review.
