Nice, but like so many featural scripts, it suffers from the
problem that the letters look all very similar to each other,
I think.  It is often easy to confuse letters (as with, for
instance, Tengwar), but that may only be a problem for people
not familiar with the script.  For those not familiar with
them, scripts such as Arabic or Mxedruli also have many
letters which look "too much alike" (despite not being
featural).  On the plus side, your script opens up new
possibilities for ambigrams, with the mirror image of each
letter being another letter.
