Interesting ideas. I think the player had a too limited amount of shapes to choose from (two other than the circle isn't much). A least all the forms have distinct roles.
Some level resolutions seemed a little too random to me. The shapes can sometimes push the squares/triangles and make them fall down a pit, or the circles don't always gain the same speed once the pass over a triangle : that can be very frustrating. All levels depend on some luck. You could have made the triangles/squares un-pushable if they're on ground, on remove the default physics while launching a circle, it could have made the game more determinist.
On level 4 (I think ?) When I clicked on the "reload" button, I was sent back to the first level... I was a little irritated.
Good game nonetheless. Could be a lot better with some polishing. Good job!
