    We are now looking for Beta Testers!

    Space Shapes is a 3D Puzzle game with a gameplay that is a little like Tetris but then again in many aspects much different. The very fact that it makes simplistic use of the 3rd Dimension will make it a refreshing experience in this Arcade Puzzle genre.

    We will have a beta test build this week and are looking for more testers now!

    Controls have been improved again and they work really great and fluidly now.
    Space Shapes controls are now D-Swipe controls + buttons, D-Swipe controls are a invention by Matthew who is the programmer of space shapes. A little different D-swipe controls work also great in Last Knight btw.

    You know I want in! I assume you guys will be starting a corresponding Social Group and require my UDIDs (they probably have changed since I last tested with you).

    Just send out a new beta test build of Space Shapes, it has several great improvements based on previous feedback. Among it are the new simple shapes which make it much easier to match the shapes for the right holes, here is a quick screenshot:

    When a shape will fit in the hole under it it changes to the usual illuminated one.

    I have uploaded a short video that shows some gameplay:

    Also shows the new projected realtime shadows! The Shadows now show the actual profiles of the shapes which is a good help for matching the shapes for the holes.

    We will have a new test build this week, the score system and difficulty is what we are currently polishing.
