OnPoint by purrpurr
There's no place for points in a shape world. But this point will show them how a shape is defined. Needless to say, you're on point! All puns aside, this is my first attempt at a puzzle type game. It could have gone better; but I find part of the fun in itself, is figuring out how the mechanics 'could' work.

I ran into a small glitch, by the way - I was moving at close to max speed and got stuck on a corner. I couldn't move, so I had to reset. The corner was an L shape, I was coming at it going diagonally up-right. (Don't worry, I didn't vote you down for it!)
Over all, well done! Really good, and doubly so considering that it's your first attempt at a puzzle game.
I tried spamming between the circle and the triangle to "confuse" it as the wonky shape but I guess that's not right :(
Good puzzle game, perhaps having less levels with more depth like the last one would have been a better design choice. I enjoyed it :)
Minimalistic yet interesting and challenging!
Overall, you've made your point.
