I did notice that it was faster to move forward while strafing, if you wanna check that out.
It'd also be cool to have some confirmation in game on what things do, like those glowing platforms and such.
Other than that, good game!
Idk if other people know this but if you hold down shift, you get a run of sorts. This helps a LOT with the speed of the game, especially in later loops when you already know the general way to go. Nice touch.
Ultimately I couldn't find the 3rd shape, I was missing the triangle. I thiiiink it had to do with the sign that said "this is not the right way" but I didn't know how to get to the ledge. That sign could've been true for all I know lol.
Either way, it's a nice little world you built, I would've loved to beat it and shut Zog up!
