Triquacir by dertom
This is my Jam-Game Triquacir.
Combining the minimalistic forms Triangle, Quad and Circle with minimalistic but challenging gameplay.
Hit objects with the mouse as fast as possible on the screen as indicated on the bar to the left. Sounds easy? Proof it!
I worked most of day 3 on a server to share scores but didn't get it stable in time.... :(
Have fun.
Dependency: openal

BTW: This is the first LD that I reviewed that managed to crash my system! Good job XD
The game is also very laggy on my system.
@Clavus: thx for the screenshot. There problems seems to be that openal can not be found!? Maybe I should pack it with the game.
@all: thx for playing :D I will try to get it more stable...
Good choice of music.
But it's a nice concept and the level progression (as far as I got before I had to kill it) seems pretty good. I also liked the music as long as I didn't pay too much attention to it.
This would work great on a touch screen. Maybe you could add some variety in colours as well as shapes?
Also, it ran fine for me on Win7 64bit.

To fix this, I downloaded the OpenAL redist installer and ran it (http://connect.creativelabs.com/openal/Downloads/oalinst.zip). Then it worked fine.
The game was pretty clever. Invisible shapes that moves and swaps? Not the easiest to handle at first.
