I love these types of games. Good job with the physics and deformation. Though I ended up crashing the game by causing an explosion of vertices all over the screen by stretching too much. :D

Even if there isn't music, even if the game is short, it's so much original and innovating that it should get more votes. Well done, good job!

Good Game! A uniquely fresh concept and take on theme, controls could use some work as it is not a super easy game to play, but i was trying to beat my score for a while... best score 184 :(

Man, this is fun! XD I spent quite some time playing it and not noticing I had work to do! :P

Great work on the physics! Controls also work nicely! With some polish it could become even more fun! XD

Some shapes, like the map of Japan or the L shape, are hard and challenging. :P

Great work!

Really cool concept! Excellent blobbing simulation! Some shapes seemed pretty impossible to get, like the circle?
