Binary Shift by JHemmings
The goal of Binary Shift is to guess the pixelated shapes before all the pixels reach their intended destination and complete the shape.
The shapes are randomly generated and the speed at which the pixels move increases, so choose quickly!
This is my first Ludum Dare, thanks for playing!

Seems like the shapes come together a bit to fast, maybe an extra 5 seconds before it speeds up would be better but overall I really like the concept and design. Good Job on your first Ludum Dare!
The key to the game is that there's a slight wait after the shape has formed, although it's very short. It should allow most people to recognise the shape while the pixels are moving quickly and click a button before the time is up.
I got a higher score mashing a random button than I did trying to guess, because I'd time out before I had time to move the mouse to the button I wanted to click. If I only had a second more, I'd probably do better ;)
@Ikr I should have got someone to play test it before the Jam time was up, as I could have easily added in that extra second! :D
Very nice idea that I haven't seen anywhere before.
Good job :)
