| Apr 18 12:38:00 | Shape Shifters Inc. - A near-future dystopian manufacturing simulator | I liked it. <br/> <br/>Didn't understand at all what I was supposed to do, so it took me a while to complete the first level (got a shameful report... can't imagine why I didn't lose my job). <br/> <br/>Don't really see much of the theme in there, but it was still a good effort. Controls seemed to be working just fine and it felt good walking around in the factory. Some nice looking machinery would have been even better if colored a little. | |
| Apr 18 12:49:00 | 11m 00s | Feel Bad | Hehe... That was short and fun. <br/> <br/>A bit of a surprise there as well. Liked how you could get different endings. |
| Apr 18 12:59:00 | 10m 00s | Tumbleshift | Loved the graphics. Very stylish and pretty to look at. Game plays well, although I didn't really like the collision detection on the barrels. Feels like I should be able to avoid them, but the entire height of the barrel is used for collision. <br/> <br/>The music though... heck yeah! I'm digging it! |
| Apr 18 13:14:00 | 15m 00s | Mr.Slime | Fun little game. <br/> <br/>I kept getting stuck in walls and the ground after shapeshifting though... could always get loose by jumping, so it wasn't gamebreaking. Liked the simple graphics as well. |
| Apr 18 13:27:00 | 13m 00s | Pasowix's Magical Shapeshifting Workshop | I quite enjoyed this little game. First customer had me stumped as I hadn't read his comment, and didn't know what to do. But after that, only the fish had me scratching my head... how obvious it was at the end though. <br/> <br/>Didn't encounter any problems, and the game ran just fine. Nice little effort! Really liked some of the comments from the customers... "Hammer Time" ;) |
| Apr 18 13:38:00 | 11m 00s | Go Away, Zeus! | The graphics are absolutely wonderful... and hey - with a naked woman in there how could they be anything but... <br/> <br/>Gameplay wise... took me a while to figure it out. Kinda wish there was a little bit more info before we started (some hints). Either way. I did enjoy playing. But, the graphics are really what made the game. |
| Apr 18 13:53:00 | 15m 00s | Transmorgification Situation | Interesting little game. I had to move files around after downloading to play it though, that had me confused for a second. Liked the simple graphics... and was that a Binding of Isaac reference in the trees? |
| Apr 18 14:03:00 | 10m 00s | Shift | Nice little puzzle platformer. A few more levels would have been great, but I still enjoyed the short time I spent on it. |
| Apr 18 14:20:00 | 17m 00s | TerraShift | Very good entry. I really enjoyed watching the village grow, and unleashing natural elements against dragons and wolves. Graphics are top-notch for a compo game. <br/> <br/>Easy to play, easy to understand (if you read the goals of the game first) and a very solid entry. I liked it! |
| Apr 18 14:49:00 | 29m 00s | Plato and the 'Caves | Good fun rougelike-lite game. It was quite confusing how to use the shapeshifting abilities though, and once I did figure it out, it was a bit clunky when those real-time movers got close, as you had no time to shapeshift. <br/> <br/>Either way. I enjoyed playing it, and that's what really matters. |
| Apr 18 21:45:00 | 6h 56m | RescueBot | Apart from the controls, which I found to be a little clunky, the game was fun to play. I like the graphics - simple but pleasing to the eye. Good game. |
| Apr 19 09:23:00 | 11h 38m | Chemscape | Nice little game. I kind of wished it was a bit longer, but then again... we don't have much time here. |
| Apr 19 09:32:00 | 9m 00s | Infinity Access | I liked the graphics. It was a nice looking game. But, honestly - I had no idea what I was doing or why. Some in-game tutorial that explained things would have really helped. Nice effort though, and like I said - I did like the graphics. |
| Apr 19 09:39:00 | 7m 00s | NeonDX | Very nice graphics, and the gameplay was tight and felt good. It was a little fast past right from the start - maybe could have eased us in at a slower pace to get used to it first. But, overall a solid effort with a good hooked factor. |
| Apr 19 09:46:00 | 7m 00s | BLOB Passage | This was a nice little game. The shapeshifting blob was really nice looking. I wasn't really sure about the time limit mechanic. I had hundreds of seconds at the first level, but then no time at all on the second. Still an enjoyable game that could be developed further. |
| Apr 19 09:59:00 | 13m 00s | ShapeTests | Very much like the robotic voiceover. Excellent use of it in the tutorial as well. The game was a little too easy at first, and when the speed picked up, the door had not risen high enough to let the shapes pass through. The door should rise faster as well. Also... there was no exit game button. Graphics were minimalistic but worked well for the game. |
| Apr 19 10:09:00 | 10m 00s | Shape Rave | It felt like the 70's came to a 90's rave party and made babies. Seriously, loved the graphics of the game, even though they messed up my head after a while. Gameplay was a little simlistic at times, and I didn't realize what killed me until after a couple of tries. Great little game, though. |
| Apr 19 11:14:00 | 1h 05m | The Deronois | There is a nice foundation here on which to build a game. It's unfortunate that there's not enough content yet. I would love to see where you could take this with more time. The graphics are nice, the platforming mechanics are smooth and works well. I didn't NEED to use any shapeshifting though... I could just run straight past the enemies though. Still a good start that I'd suggest you continue developing. |
| Apr 19 11:28:00 | 14m 00s | WaLeFi | Really love the artwork here. Beautiful game to look at, and the gameplay was straight forward and did what you expected from it. Good entry. |
| Apr 19 11:44:00 | 16m 00s | CHORUS | 38470... first go. <br/> <br/>Nice little simple game. Easy to understand, easy to play. |
| Apr 19 15:50:00 | 4h 06m | Shifty the Spellthief | Definitely release worthy graphics here. Beautiful to look at. Gameplay felt nice an polished as well, apart from the map which didn't help me at all. I kept running around in circles and couldn't find the end goal. Also, sometimes the guards could see me even if I had changed shape before their cone of vision caught up with me. I found it smarter to just jump over them... which is cheating and defeats the purpose of the game. However, with some more work - this could be a really fun game. |
| Apr 19 16:02:00 | 12m 00s | Klurby | This was a neat little game. It had some problems though. Some enemies shooting through walls and I couldn't jump when moving forward on the stairs. Had to stop, jump and then move forward... this got me killed once or twice. I did like the 2D/3D mix between the character and the environment. |
| Apr 19 16:13:00 | 11m 00s | Count Spoopy's dance club | Neat game. I liked the shapeshifting mechanic you got going here, and there were some fun and challenging puzzle aspects. I had to work a couple of times the first time the three guards popped up. Graphics were quite nice and pixelated as well. Some polish and more levels and you'd have a nice little game. |
| Apr 19 16:20:00 | 7m 00s | Morph Brawl | There was a good idea here, but it was too limited to be any fun. Different enemies and levels, and different abilities to counter and defend against, and you could turn this into something good. Graphics were simplistic, but nice. |
| Apr 19 16:27:00 | 7m 00s | Full Moon Village | Was on a 4:3 monitor and couldn't play it because the resolution left houses outside of the view. Also the scaling of text made it hard to read. I was interested in seeing it, so I might give it another go when I get to another computer. |
| Apr 19 16:46:00 | 19m 00s | Hart of the Forest | Graphics were gorgeous... especially the main menu screen which I really liked. I also enjoyed running around as a deer collecting villagers. Too bad there were things (obviously) missing, but the potential is there for a very interesting game. Good effort! |
| Apr 19 17:08:00 | 22m 00s | Helium-4 | I don't know why... but I had a good time clicking around on the little atoms. Don't know if there's a strategy to employ, but I enjoyed trying to get new formations. The game crashed after a while though, and I suspect a memory leak somewhere. Nice gravity and a fun little game. |
| Apr 20 08:35:00 | 15h 27m | Tetrashifter | Playing on windows I couldn't really get the controls to work very well. I liked the idea, and the way you implemented the theme. I'm sure it works better on mobile devices. |
| Apr 20 08:41:00 | 6m 00s | Shapetrak | Very nice little game. The audio in particular was great. Good music and awesome sound effects. I enjoyed this one. |
| Apr 20 09:26:00 | 45m 00s | A Soul of Clay | Great game. I liked the graphical style and the mood was dark and appropriately unsettling. Good job on this one. |
| Apr 20 09:42:00 | 16m 00s | Virgin Blood | Great little stealth turn-based, realtime mix. Nice graphics too. Too bad there were no sounds, but it was still an enjoyable experience. |
| Apr 20 09:49:00 | 7m 00s | The Tale of Lapkovius | Very nice stealth game here, and good use of the theme. It was challenging as well, and that's a plus. Good music and nice simplistic graphics. Overall a solid effort. |
| Apr 20 10:02:00 | 13m 00s | Son of God: The First Transmorpher | Very nice. Animations were great and the graphics very stylish. I liked the music too. Controls a little bit hard to master, but still a fun game, and a good take on the theme. |
| Apr 20 11:26:00 | 1h 24m | 55 Days | Very fun and relaxing game with stellar graphics and great music. I will probably play this one through a few more times, and I'd be interested to see if you keep working on it what it could become. Great fun. <br/> <br/>PS. 5694 was my score. I felt good about that. |
| Apr 20 11:35:00 | 9m 00s | Mixle | Interesting game, especially as the puzzles got a little harder. |
| Apr 20 11:59:00 | 24m 00s | MISCEO | Interesting and unique concept. Sometimes a level would start and send me straight into a killzone without giving me any chance of survival though. Nice effort, still. |
| Apr 20 12:10:00 | 11m 00s | Slicer | Very difficult indeed, but I like the idea. Took me a while to figure out the mechanics, and it would have been nice with a couple of more slow moving levels to begin with. But, still an interesting concept. |
| Apr 20 18:02:00 | 5h 52m | Space Morphers | Wow, that was short. :) |
| Apr 20 18:40:00 | 38m 00s | Dr. Deckenstein: An Adventure in Severed Parts | I will beat this game... I will. <br/> <br/>I think the no-sound really hurt the game though. Otherwise, it's a great game and a lot of fun to play. I really DO want to beat it, so that's a good thing. <br/> <br/>Didn't catch (hardly) any of your livestream, since I was busy working on my own submission. I owe you a lot, as your YouTube tutorials have taught me a tremendous lot about programming. |
| Apr 20 18:51:00 | 11m 00s | Eggplant’s Dynamic Chimerization | Graphics wise, this was a wonderful game. The controls and music were tight as well. Unfortunately, I didn't understand what I was doing. Sometimes my avatar would change randomly, even when I didn't press shift, and when I restarted after dying I kept respawning right next to a wolf that just attacked and killed me several times in a row. <br/> <br/>There is definitely potential here, but a more clear goal and some tutorial type explanation would do it good. I still played for a while though, because I did enjoy running around... especially as the eggplant. |
| Apr 21 10:54:00 | 16h 03m | ShapeShift for Cheese | Absolutely amazing graphics for a Jam game. I am in awe ;) <br/> <br/>My only real gripe about the game was the long waiting time for dialogue. At least I couldn't find a way to speed them up, and sometimes when testing things I had to wait long times reading the same thing again. The puzzles were ok. <br/> <br/>But, what really made this game stand out was the amazing graphics. The sound was also very good. |
| Apr 21 16:37:00 | 5h 43m | Shadow Shifter | Interesting concept. I found the game a little dark, though (realize it's called Shadow Shifter). Controls were a bit funky. Could be an interesting game if developed further. |
| Apr 21 16:56:00 | 19m 00s | Shifty's Shape Escape | Is there a way to change the controls? I couldn't get the semi-colon to work on my keyboard, so it was kinda hard to get anywhere. Nice idea though - and I liked the sound. Good take on the theme. |
| Apr 21 18:27:00 | 1h 31m | Spacetime Shifters | I took a long time before I encountered any enemies. I drove around, nothing happened, and I almost quit. Pretty basic gameplay, worked as one would expect. Nice ship models, though. |
| Apr 21 18:35:00 | 8m 00s | World Dominator | There are some interesting aspects for sure. Unfortunately, I found the controls - especially the attacks - quite lacking. I didn't really get how to hurt the enemies as the sword hit them and pushed them back slightly... but no damage most of the time. <br/> <br/>The procedural generation of the maps, however, was really cool. |
| Apr 22 12:38:00 | 18h 03m | Star Shift Journey | This was actually quite a fun little space shooter game. Theme was well implemented and the simplistic old-school style shooter was quick to learn. Didn't encounter any bugs either. |
| Apr 22 12:45:00 | 7m 00s | Black Heart | Trippy! This was too much for my eyes and brain to process :) <br/> <br/>Still a nicely done game, with good sound effects. I did have trouble separating my avatar and the oncoming shapes at times - probably because the graphics scrambled my brain. |
| Apr 22 13:00:00 | 15m 00s | Project G.R.I.L.L. | Nice and polished 48h game. Good old-shool shooter. Didn't really see the use of shapeshifting, other than changing up your attacks and movement, but I had fun playing it. |
| Apr 22 13:05:00 | 5m 00s | Monstershift | Very cute looking graphics. Not sure why the shapeshift was necessary - didn't notice any difference in behavior or anything. Would have been nice if it was a little more challenging, but still a cute and nice little game. |
| Apr 22 13:15:00 | 10m 00s | Doppel City | Such a beautiful game to look at. And I really enjoyed looking out for those shapeshifters and blasting them to smithereens. Great little easy to play game. Got 241 points, but I messed up on level seven shooting two innocent people... collateral damage, I say. |
| Apr 23 08:27:00 | 19h 12m | You're a Floor Lamp Now | A fun little game. Very original idea, and nice graphics. |
| Apr 23 09:07:00 | 40m 00s | MoveARound | I thought this was a great game. Using simple mechanics and clear rules, it made for some very interesting puzzles. Only real problem I found was that sometimes when being an icecube and wanting to touch fire to become water you just became insta-killed instead of turning to water. Was especially frustrating in the last level. <br/> <br/>Graphics did the job. Pretty minimalist in the sound department... could've used a little background music. But, overall - I enjoyed this game enough to make me NEED to finish it. Good job. |
| Apr 23 09:16:00 | 9m 00s | Town | The artwork was nice, but the jitter didn't do it any good. I also felt that I didn't really get any feedback from what I was doing. It's a good attempt, but unfortunately - for me - it fell a little short. |
| Apr 23 09:43:00 | 27m 00s | SUBJECT 26 | Excellent game overall. Pixelated art was nice, puzzles were interesting and fun to do. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience here. Great work! |
| Apr 23 10:06:00 | 23m 00s | Rude Bear Requiem | It was a bit confusing to figure out what I was supposed to do. But, I liked the art style and the audio. |
| Apr 26 08:48:00 | 70h 42m | A walk to the top | Very nice puzzle game. I really enjoyed the sound... gave me quite a good chuckle. <br/> <br/>Only problem is there was no real challenge to the game. A quick glance and I could quickly assess how to place the stairs and arrows to complete the level. Some more variety options to complicate things would make the game much better. <br/> <br/>I liked how many levels there were to the game though. |
| Apr 26 08:56:00 | 8m 00s | Who Are You And What Are You Doing Here?? | Yeah, I'm sorry. I tried 4 times, but I got stuck on the first courtyard point-and-click style screen. I did like what I saw of the graphics, but unfortunately I could not play the game. |
| Apr 26 09:08:00 | 12m 00s | The Skinmancer | I liked the pixel graphics a lot. Music was good as well. The game itself was fun, albeit very hard... especially since I had to play with a keyboard. Great entry, though. |
| Apr 26 09:15:00 | 7m 00s | Werectangle | Fatal error occured where I was supposed to press arrow down, and I couldn't finish the game. Apart from that, it was a nice little platformer. |
| Apr 26 09:24:00 | 9m 00s | Breaking Fat | A nice little game that has some good ideas behind it. I found the movement a little slow, and the flying mechanic was kinda wonky to me. Even on easy I struggled hard. |
| Apr 26 19:52:00 | 10h 28m | Town | This was cute and funny... yet grim. Not much gameplay, really, but I did enjoy the story. |
| Apr 28 08:47:00 | 36h 55m | Fugitive Shift | Very impressive compo entry. Nice simplistic 3D graphics and moodsetting music. I really enjoyed the puzzle solving stealth levels. <br/> <br/>There was a problem with the camera though. The first time I found the second character, I ran him up to the exit disguised as a guard and deselected him to get the other guy up there. The camera centered between the two, and neither was in frame... so I could no longer select anyone. Didn't find a way to move the camera, so if there is... it's just me who couldn't figure it out. <br/> <br/>Either way - a nice and unique stealth game that could definitely be developed further. |
| Apr 28 08:59:00 | 12m 00s | The adventures of Wizard Hamster: The epic battle with dreadful Robot Cactus! | Fun little game. Sometimes it felt like I didn't shapeshift into the closest object, which got me killed a few times, but I enjoyed it none the less. <br/> <br/>Great graphics! |
| May 4 18:19:00 | 153h 20m | Soul Shifter | Nice game. Nice animations and pixel art. I didn't quite like the controls - but, other than that I really enjoyed the time I spent with it. |
| May 7 08:50:00 | 62h 31m | Silver Bullet | I enjoyed this game. Didn't really get the ending, though. Doesn't quite make sense to me... and nor could I find the elusive clue I've been hearing about. Still it was a nice entry, and I liked it. |
| May 7 11:20:00 | 2h 30m | Reform | What a gorgeous looking game. Now, I'm not a platform gamer so I couldn't make it past the level with the high pillar blockage, and ended up rage quitting after about 30 tries - so I never got to the ending. For lesser skilled players, like myself, it would be nice if the blocks stayed just a second or so longer. Still, the art and the music was absolutely top notch. |
| May 7 11:51:00 | 31m 00s | Nyamo's Adventure | Friggin' great. The animations and the platforming feels perfect. Music was awesome too. Did run into a bug where I glitched into the terrain and had to wait until I passed through it to begin moving again, but other than that everything worked as one would expect (played the compo version, so it may have been fixed). I really loved little Nyamo in all his shapes, and it was a great little platformer that should be expanded on. Definitely one of the best games I've come across in this Ludum Dare. |
| May 8 17:24:00 | 29h 33m | Moonlight | I like the whole werewolf vs. vampire theme you got going here. I couldn't quite understand the game, though. Is it even possible to hurt the vampires? I ran up to them and swung my claws like mad, but did no harm to them. Nor could I find where the silver key went. Either way - good effort. |
| May 8 17:36:00 | 12m 00s | Doodle Book Survival | Really like the graphical style you came up with here. I also enjoyed the game, and after a few seriously failed attempts I managed to get 12000+ points. I would have preferred the shapeshifting keys on the number pad as an option, as I kept getting confused with the fire button right next to the shapeshifting buttons (yes, I know - I could've used space, but I did prefer the F-key). Also... no exit game option. <br/> <br/>But, overall - this was a solid and fun Ludum Dare entry, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. |
| May 8 19:52:00 | 2h 16m | Sheep Shift | This was fun. The graphics are really nice. The music and audio is well done, and captures the mood of the game. I kind of wish there was a little more to it than just herding the sheep into different shapes - maybe throw in some birds, or something that could frighten the sheep and have them run away as you're trying to group them... but, what is there is really well polished and it certainly kept me entertained. |
| May 9 15:32:00 | 19h 40m | Henkan Pachinko | Nice but short game. Kinda wish there were a few more levels. Also, it wasn't clear which way the ramp would go sometimes, as I wanted it to go one way, but it turned out to go the other so I had to retry. On one of the levels we had three shifts available, but I only did one and that was all that was needed. I don't know if that was by default, or I just found an exploit. Still it was fun while it lasted. |
| May 9 15:49:00 | 17m 00s | Chrysalide | Took me a couple of tries before I figured out why I became a larvae again, but after that I got rollin'. Beautiful graphics and great audio all around. The game was challenging... at the fourth level I struggled big time. Had to give up as I'm short on time, but will probably come back and see if I can't get further. Great game - good job! |
