Glitches:
- When you hit into the blue shape at close proximity to the wall the player can become stuck inside the wall and unable to move, this rendering that game useless and requiring a restart.



User Manual
Controls: < - Left
                > - Right
                ^ - Up
                \/ - Down
Point system: In order to gain enough points to advance to the next level you have to eat not only all of the pills, but also the enemies. In order to eat enemies you have to be the same shape as them, otherwise the enemies can eat you.
There are no lives in Shapeman, if you get eaten by an enemy shape the game will restart and you will have to start again, so strategy is key.
In the middle is a rotating timer of shapes, giving you the shape that will come next in the sequence allowing for you to predict what is coming next.
Be careful, the enemy shapes change every so often making it a challenge to navigate around the level safely without being eaten.


Mothers Feedback:
I don't usually play video games, however i remember playing the old PAC-Man game when i was younger and remember that being fun. This game is similar and has elements of PAC-Man such as the way the shapes move and how you progress. I like how you can change your shape into other shapes and then can eat the enemies, however i dislike how fast the shapes change as it catches me off guard and kills me. Although i did enjoy the game and think it holds the perfect mix of challenge and fun.
