Pretty fun game. Movement is smooth, but traps are maybe a bit hard to dodge. At some point I walked off the leap of faith, and when I respawned I fell through the map or something. Weird but fun.

Rough in more ways than one :)
- Controls felt too loose, especially jumping.
- Traps seemed "out of rythm", which made crossing more luck than skill (could be wrong).
- Major bug out mid way through, with death spawning me where I died, character wrapping/falling through floor and whatnot. Leap of faith at the end completely broke character through everything and ended up in death loop.
So yea, rough :)

Interesting that shapeshifting is used as the weapon, instead of the player's power. Not sure how I feel about squishing those poor innocent kittens though :P
There does seem to be a bug at the leap of faith section - if you miss, it doesn't reset your velocity and you fall through the floor with no way to escape except resetting.
The bug where you fall through the floor if you die after the leap of faith is resolved.
I liked it. Would be nice to support WASD controls as well as the arrows. Other idea might be to not to respawn to quickly, so I can see how I died for a few seconds. Great work!
Suprisingly a lot of fun! I lol'd at the kitten sound effects. Music fits the weird mood of the game, and the graphics on their own aren't great but it adds to the mood. Good job overall!
A fun, quirky platformer which can be pretty punishing in places. There's a weird bug that sometimes teleports you further into the level when you die, as if you've reached a checkpoint that you haven't seen yet, but this helping hand is welcome at times! I liked the sound effects, especially the disappointed kittens. Well done. :)
I liked the idea of the shape shifting. Nice work.
Very good game ! I liked it.
Nice game, was fun to play, good usage of respawn points.
Couldn't go further as the leap of faith, afterwards the balls were always too fast.
You should add a bit more gravity and use circular hitboxes for the balls.
Well done :)
Loose adaption of the theme, but a fun reminder of some classic early 90's computer platformers. Music fits the game. Traps need some fine-tuning, but were interesting.
Realy nice. Maybe the scenario could be more like the player in the aspect of size.
I just felt a little discomfort.
Anyway it's really fun to play.
Good work.
You Won!
(it was pretty hard to get there but luckily defeated enemies didnt respawn. it took us 3 people and a lot of time to beat it, and then we only got a little sign saying you won.. but that made us laugh, so we give it a bonus point for humor too)
Overall it was fun to play through once, and some possible improvements could be making the jump height variable (like tapping for lower jump) and optimize framerate a little (it was hard to play on our laptop). Thanks for submitting this game :)
Good audio and the "shapeshift" concept is funny! The graphics are a bit poor and I think the controls may be improved.
