If not a game, its an interesting idea nonetheless. This is pretty cool because I hadn't heard of Moai before - after checking it out, it looks pretty amazing! I definitely want to use it for a future project.

Also, I was able to get a Windows version working: http://db.tt/J4G8fh6E

This looks like it has some great potential to explore shape morphing as a mechanic, but unless I'm missing something, all there is is a single environment with a morphing shape and an invisible platform from which your avatar can tumble endlessly.

Don't have OS/X

No Mac. I can't play this game.

Looks cool even without an objective. Does anyone know what that font is at the start? Also the shape morphing is very well done.

@SneakySalmon The font is from here: http://www.04.jp.org/ . Specifically it is the font 04B-03B. Some really good bitmap fonts here.

funr but not really game really minimal though

Here's my blog post on this project for anyone that is interested: http://blog.mydigitaldecay.com/2013/04/ludum-dare-26.html

I never actually got a game level finished in time, but I managed to get the shape morphing to work as I envisioned.

Hmm... Well, the graphics are nice. Continue developing this - I'd like to see where you go with it.

I'm not actually clear on what the mechanic will be. I know that it will look nice, but that's all I'm getting out of it. Will the shapes have powers? Is this a Trine sequel?

The shape morphing is nice and smooth and looks nice but it's unfortunate that a game did not come of the work.. Hopefully now that you are more familiar with Moai, you'll be able to put it to better use next competition.

Interesting morphing behavior, but that seems to be it. I made a yellow shape morph and hop - couldn't see any other commands or things to do. Cool look to the morphing, though.

Neat morphing, but wish there was more.

zim-the-fox 2013-05-04 05:31

It looks nice! :3

It's a very empty prototype so I gave it a low score, but I think you are onto a very interesting mechanic. Keep working on it!

eggdestroyer 2013-05-04 09:10

Looks good, that's it. You should put some notice somewhere to help people figure out that you can't do anything but jump/morph :)

freezx 2013-05-09 09:33

Has nice potential, and I liked the morphing.

spiridion 2013-05-10 05:04

Would like to see a mechanic come from the morphing. Like involving the physics engine so circles can roll, but triangles are more stable, etc.

paulopn 2013-05-10 05:24

The shape morphing mechanic really looks like it has a lot of potential, I look forward to seeing a game made from this! =D

Maybe a bit too minimalistic ;)
