Nice visuals and (most) sound effects. Not very original, though and I don't really see the 'shapeshift' aspect of the game. And the voice saying 'good' and 'solid' etc. was really annoying. No hate, btw. :)

@Crafting4U The shapeshift aspect is because you are Shifting Shapes back and forth! :) Thanks for playing :)

Fun bejewled twist! I ended up addicted because I enjoy this type of game and liked how you have to drag instead of just plopping a shape from anywhere to a matching area.

Really enjoyed this one, the overall enjoyment was great, I think you really nailed the match 3 style in such a short time. Super impressive!

Would love your thoughts on my game -- Tito's Revenge

Just another Bejeweled game I think at first. And then I spend 20 minutes trying to beat the high score, but maan 80000 is high :o So yeah, not very original, but so well executed!

You capture the essence of that type of game perfectly: feedbacks, lots of feedbacks.. either visual or audible ones. And combos, lots of combos. And the rewarding feeling when we're about to loose and we obtain a time extend. All these details that keep the player focus.

Many entries may have a better concept than yours, but most of them lack of feedbacks, music or sounds (if it's not all three). It's also important to be able to polish a game, even in 3 days. That's why I'll reward you for that in my rating :)

Really fun! And the pun for "Shape" "Shift" is just great. LOL. Awesome.
I can't open the source btw

Very well put together for an LD game, you have all the elements of this kind of game done well. I can't really play it because I'm colourblind and I essentially see 3 kinds of objects (I know the shapes are different, but I have to concentrate really hard to play just by shapes). For that reason I am not ranking fun.

I made the High-score table! I love the voice-overs in this game

When I dragged a row and matched two different sets, I felt excited! If you continue to design this, at first I was unsure if I was shifting the row or column over, or if I was shifting some pieces over. Then I wasn't sure if it counted as further distance when I took the long way around instead of the short way around to wrap, which felt like no more skill involved to wrap the long way.

Not bad match-3 game.

Really well made game. Works very well as a match-3 while also having enough unique about it to recommend it. I dug the voice overs also; gave it a nice bit of personality.
