    Looks great, very original, runs well, and could be addicting.

    I didn't run into any of the above problems, so either you've fixed them, or I'm lucky .

    Bugs

    Every level is generated by the computer so tracking down the bug is proving very difficult. I cant see how if 99% of levels work then how does this bug creep in. Oh well, on I go.

    They say 90% of a job is done in 10% of the time, the last 10% takes the remaining 90% of the time. I can well believe it.

    If you dont get a bug then thats good.
    But a bug is a bug and I will track it down...oh yes.

    Well, I like both game play types.. The only thing I don't like about the new one is that the shapes keep on coming and filling every single spot.. That just bothers me... If only they did not fill everyspot.

    Very nice though.. and I am suprised how fast it runs..

    Oh, and this is bothering me.. I think you mean rectangles not squares.

    Ok Ok rectangles.....point taken. I had to keep filling the squares..It was in my brief. Other than that it worked out pretty good.

    As I dont like too much timed puzzle games anyway, new version is somehow distracting to me. Old version looked and feeled like good puzzle, new is more of clicking fast anywhere.

    If you really want the new version, maybe there should be some changes, like:

    1. give more time for each symbol removed, making goal mostly "for how long can you survive"

    or

    2. remove all the symbols from rectangle, making the goal "clear the table"

    Current version Im afraid is confusing. The fact that symblos inside rectangle change shape and that new symbols keep coming makes it impossible to plan ahead.
