Well, first of all, I didn't like the fact that this game didn't tell me about the controls in the beginning- instead I have to actually find said controls, before finding an explanation about them xD
However, I really like the animation and the art style-
The climbing as cat part looks a little bit weird, and so does shooting- but it's a ludum dare entry so it's ok.
The level design was a bit confusing a first, but after a while I managed to progress-
Also, the music didn't loop, the cat is overpowered, and the switching is somewhat tedious- but the game is still engaging and interesting, even if it's just in order to see what's lying right behind the next corner.
Also, I like the fact that I can turn into a walrus.
The music was really cool. Bullets were too big, and I would do some cleaning up woth the art. Gameplay was cool, with some fixing and making things prettier you could have a nice game in your hands.
Fun game. The music really added to the atmosphere but then it stopped :(. Overall good job!

Thanks for the feedback! I uploaded a new version with some stupid sleep-deprivation-induced mistakes (such as the music not looping) fixed.
Today I learned cats are so dangerous they can defeat armed soldiers. :P
It's a great game, the mouse feels kinda useless and the elephant bugged out a bit after breaking boxes, but overall the game has a lot of content, both in stage size and in all the different transformations. Nice job.

Cool transformations and level! At one point, the game didn't register that I had left water as a walrus and let me fly through the air very quickly. Still fun.

There's a surprisingly large amount of content to this, though that also made it confusing since there was no map and the level is very visually repetitive.
I also ran into the bug which let me just fly around as the walrus after leaving the water area.

Cool transformation game. The different abilities were clear and fun to use. Music was great. I really liked the duck animation. Got stuck in swim mode after leaving the water, but then again I always wanted to play a game as a flying walrus.
Decent graphics, great music. The bullets where huge.
Could use some instructions.
Fun game, I made it to the end. Really awesome use of the theme and good level design.

Controls are unresponsive and I couldn't really enjoy the game because of them.

I liked the overall premise of the game. Nice that you have to use the ability of each transformation to make it through the level. Music was pretty cool too.

Very involved level design, and an interesting assortment of transformations!
Good job for the numerous forms! Experienced some lags but it is normal on a game made in 3 days. Concerning the script maybe you could explain why the man can transform into animals.
