Not sure how that worked, didn't seem to do much, at least not consistently.\r2) At some point, the next "shapes" appeared in the upper right corner of the hud, along with the number to press. That made things very easy even at ultra speed and took my eyes away from the main part of the game. Not sure why.\r\rOtherwise, one of the most fun entries so far in my list. Kudos :)"},{"author_name":"luvShape","author_uid":"93120","time":"Apr 19, 2016 @ 1:42pm","epoch":1461073020,"text":"Very hard! the graphics and the mood are great"},{"author_name":"Ted Brown","author_uid":"12485","time":"Apr 19, 2016 @ 3:50pm","epoch":1461080700,"text":"@Mutonizer and others: great question!\r1) Hack time works while you're playing, but I only drop the hint after you die. It basically halves your speed.\r2) At high speed, with certain curves and twists, it's nearly impossible to see the gate in time to react. So the next shape appears in the upper right corner once you start to approach top speed. It disappears if you slow down.\rThank you everyone! Glad you're having fun!"},{"author_name":"ALobker","author_uid":"31811","time":"Apr 19, 2016 @ 4:51pm","epoch":1461084360,"text":"Very cool game, I really liked it."},{"author_name":"Secret Arts","author_uid":"25748","time":"Apr 19, 2016 @ 11:05pm","epoch":1461106800,"text":"Nice!
