Very, very cool!
Couldn't get past the Jarka Halls (level 3) due to time issues for now, but I'll come back to play more later on for sure!
No real comments aside from that. The game does exactly what the concept implies it should, it respect the theme perfectly, controls are tight and there a nice tactical/puzzle layer ontop.
All in all, good stuff. One of my favorite entries so far! kudos!

(note: THANK YOU for adding mute keys for sound/music. Simple thing but much appreciated!)
Great! This is the first stealth game I've played this LD, and it's really fun. The only gripe I have is that I wish you wouldn't die when you bump into enemies. It makes sense when they are alerted, but when you look like one of the monsters and bump into an unsuspecting enemy it's a bit frustrating. :(

Very cool concept. The beginning was difficult because it took a little while to know that I had to be the opposite monster in order to pass the other.
But it's very fun to play. Good job!

Very cool game.
A bit hard at the start until I realized it was a stealth game :)
Well done!
This is getting bookmarked! I need to clock it!
Only criticism is it took a few minutes to get whats going on, a bit of help there would go a long way to get more attention from voters. Its too bad if they bounce because it is actually quite addictive

Thank you for your kind words everyone ;-)
I added some help in the description to make the game a bit more understandable. (I hope that's not against the rules)
Love the bing when you pickup, very pleasing

Fantastic game! Devilish hard, but a really cool concept once you get the hang of it. Very nice execution and polish :)

Very cool mechanics! 5 stars for fun :)
Great stealth/puzzle game! Pretty difficult at first, or maybe I'm just too impatient and always get caught :D

It's very difficult and I'm bad at stealth games, but I like it anyway :)
Graphics and musical score are nice :)
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.

Hey! I love the game concept and I think it is good start point to a game, but I don´t understand why if I shapeshift into a creature, the same type of monster still atack me. Nice pixelart and sounds.

Neat Game. But there is no system behind the coins right ? I mean i dont get anything from t hem anyway pretty stealthy thing.

Once again, thanks everyone for playing.
The coins are there to get higher score which indeed doesn't mean anything. It was supposed to, but the deadline said: "No."
Also I wonder how clear it is that when you shift to some monster that the same kind of monster will recognize you since some people seem to be confused about it. Some kind of tutorial would probably help but again, deadline. And honestly, I didn't even think about it ;-)

Dude, all my fives, seriously, i envy your simple and yet very functional art! I like the mechanic as well!
Nice concept! I only got to level 3, but the gameplay is fun and intuitive.

Nice done!
I couldn't play because it give me an error message
One of the best for me.
Great puzzle stealth game! I liked the audio and the graphics, they somehow fit well together. Took me a little while to wrap my head around the mechanics, but that felt like a part of the puzzle for me!
Nice game! I just played another game with the same mechanic, but this one has a better graphics! :D just sayin'...good job! :)
