| Apr 19 02:24:00 | PERMUTATE | Pretty cool idea, and nice use of the physics engine! Imagine if you had multiple people playing this at once, each with a different shape. | |
| Apr 19 02:28:00 | 4m 00s | Equalize | I love how the audio changes depending on which shape you are! Also a cool idea, and definitely challenging. |
| Apr 19 02:39:00 | 11m 00s | Squarcle | A good, all-around game. For an innovative mechanic, the controls were surprisingly easy to pick up and learn. Nice job! |
| Apr 19 02:47:00 | 8m 00s | Under and Above | Cool game! I found the ultimate strategy: use form 2 to speed to foes, then swap to form 3 for an insta-kill ^.^ My favorite part is how the whole game can be played with just the mouse. |
| Apr 19 02:51:00 | 4m 00s | Black Heart | Beautiful effects! I found it difficult to know what shape I was going to swap to, and the middle shape often obscured my field of vision. The graphics and animations though were very good for 48 hours. Good work! |
| Apr 19 03:12:00 | 21m 00s | L.I.G.H.T. | Excellent music and graphics. I love how the fly is just 3 pixels! |
| Apr 19 03:19:00 | 7m 00s | PacShifter | Interesting idea for a puzzle game. There's a lot of potential for a game like this to be further developed, perhaps with different kinds of power pellets, and so forth. Pretty cool! |
| Apr 19 11:58:00 | 8h 39m | Creased | Very clever use of theme, and actually a pretty good spatial reasoning game. |
| Apr 19 12:21:00 | 23m 00s | Shape Bender | This is a decent puzzler with a lot of potential. The shape was pretty slippery, but once you get the hang of it, it isn't too difficult. My favorite part was how you included the instructions in the beginning; many jam games tend to lack those! |
| Apr 19 12:32:00 | 11m 00s | The Maze Nightmare | Awesome atmosphere! Horrory-like games really strike a chord with me, and your execution was excellent, with that circular viewport and shifting maze. Also clever use of theme, having the level shapeshift rather than the player. Good work! |
| Apr 19 12:43:00 | 11m 00s | Qtetris | Interesting variation on tetris! I think the game could probably be more dynamic if we could change the piece at any point rather than waiting, but it certainly adds an extra dimension to an otherwise classical game. <br/> <br/>Coincidentally, I also made a tetris variation (: |
| Apr 19 12:53:00 | 10m 00s | Soothsayer Simulator 2016 | Wow, this is a beautiful little game. Cleverest use of theme I've seen so far with the changing dialogue, and a good message too. |
| Apr 19 13:44:00 | 51m 00s | Bloody Party | Excellent graphics and gameplay! The shapeshifting mechanic really feels like a part of the actual game itself. |
| Apr 19 13:49:00 | 5m 00s | Twist&Twirl | This is a pretty cool game! I didn't quite understand the gravity mechanic, but the twist part alone was both well executed and fun to play. |
| Apr 19 14:02:00 | 13m 00s | Perception | Wow! Beautiful and polished. Using perception as an interpretation of shapeshifting is very creative. I also liked the little proverbial statements; they really added to the mood! <br/> <br/>The thing I found interesting was that the more perception modules one obtained, the harder it became to navigate, since your size got bigger. However, I think this actually had a positive effect to the gameplay, forcing players to lose perception so that they seek to get it back. Combined with the text about not focusing on what we lack, it was perfect. <br/> <br/>As an interesting side effect, the game makes you think about people who have perceptual disabilities, like blindness or deafness. Excellent work! |
| Apr 19 14:58:00 | 56m 00s | Shape Racer | Cool concept! I like how the player's advantage is the ability to plow through terrain when different shapes. |
| Apr 19 18:30:00 | 3h 32m | Laser Town | Pretty cool puzzle game! At first I was wondering what you could do with just one laser, but you managed to make it pretty challenging. Good work! |
| Apr 19 18:37:00 | 7m 00s | Polymorph | This is a fun game, and the concept is pretty neat. If this is developed further later, it would be cool if each of the forms had some kind of unique aspect. |
| Apr 20 01:45:00 | 7h 08m | Gatling Defender | Excellent graphics and effects, and the customization was pretty cool too. If the bullets were slower and you had more enemy types, this could turn into a rather splendid bullet hell game. |
| Apr 20 01:57:00 | 12m 00s | So You Think You Can Science? | Very funny! The choices of transformations are very hilarious, primarily because of how unrelated they are. The hair dryer is the best. Just got stuck on walls often, but other than that, really solid game. |
| Apr 20 11:40:00 | 9h 43m | SImple Shift | I guess I don't have the reflexes it takes! Cool little game, with graphics and auto that suit the minimalistic feel. Perhaps if started off easier and progressively became faster, it would be even better. |
| Apr 20 11:51:00 | 11m 00s | The Outsider | I really like the tesseract idea! The fact that there was no concept of "down" really made the level feel alien. Whether intended or not, that was pretty cool. |
| Apr 23 01:16:00 | 61h 25m | Shiftrix | Pretty cool concept! I had the most difficulty when in the middle of shifting, since I couldn't know what shape I was. Maybe when shifting, the screen clears so the player has enough time to figure out what his/her new shape is? Other than that, good work! |
| Apr 23 01:20:00 | 4m 00s | Color 'n' Shapeshift | Simple, but well executed. Nice work! |
