WTF HAHA That was fucking brilliant xD

alphius 2016-04-16 17:28

It took me a while to understand what I had to do ^^
Is it normal that the game does not restart with the square when you get killed by the not-so-evil red cube? :)

penthaquill 2016-04-16 17:48

Yeah that's quite normal :^) I was also worried at first so i went to the doctor but the doctor said it was just bad game design :) Thanks for the feedback! xoxo

Add more to it! It could be a very good game.maybe add rounds, or how long can you survive!!! I really do love it, just super short!

menderleit 2016-04-18 08:12

Too simple and too short. I liked the music though. :)

ringlangmail-com 2016-04-18 08:16

Little funny game. Just need to add more levels/enemies and it will be pretty much complete. Gj! :)

penthaquill 2016-04-18 08:28

Thanks mate! :)

I mean, it's a simple game, very little going on etc.
I'm not entirely sure how you structured your AI, since it was very easy for me to force the red square in a position where it had a clear view of me but didn't fire (it was stuck against a wall and unable to move towards me, but I was next to it).

Death is insubstantial. It doesn't reset your progress or move you back.

With some fundamental pathfinding ('if player_pos is in a given rectangle of the screen, move to set position that can aim into that rect'), about a dozen more enemies, and randomly spawning objectives this might have been a bit more fun.

The game is 30 seconds long, if it was a bit longer it would have potential. Cool music tho.

cmayhem 2016-04-18 08:46

Pretty fun but too short and easy. Always leave them wanting more I guess. Well done!

penthaquill 2016-04-18 08:58

Thanks for the comments! :) This game is short because the theme is bad :/ Bless up!

tides 2016-04-18 09:24

Liked the idea of not-so-enemy enemy!

berserker_chris 2016-04-18 09:25

Short but good i liked the Music.

saymon 2016-04-18 10:46

Too short. Great music tho !

egos 2016-04-18 10:48

Nice little game maybe too easy but the red ia is cool too

notime4games 2016-04-18 11:04

That was quick :)
More levels would've been nice
I think the gameplay could be developed further

red15 2016-04-18 11:19

The limited AI made the game somewhat easy, hope you didn't lose too much of your soul on it :)

Also a bit confusing how your entry is called ShapeQuest but the file is Shapeshifting.

I enjoyed the light hearted experience

tharky 2016-04-18 11:57

Very simple and short game :) add more levels man! music was nice :)

aquilon96 2016-04-18 12:18

This was fun, but the visuals could have been better. Is it normal that the game does not restart with the square when you get killed by the red cube?

h2n0 2016-04-18 12:36

I think that there is a good idea in there somewhere, its just trying to find it I guess.

neondx 2016-04-18 12:45

nice ending

marsouin 2016-04-18 14:18

Funny game gg !

jyeray 2016-04-18 19:41

Its too short. I think its a good idea, it could be a good game, only need more levels.

gamescalation 2016-04-18 19:54

May be a little short and the graphics could be a little more polished, but great music, though! plus: I do like your humor :)

varuns 2016-04-18 20:25

Short game. Not much to do.

theduckcompany 2016-04-18 20:33

Short and simple game but it is on the theme and the concept is nice.

dwhiffing 2016-04-19 01:41

There's not really enough to go on, would like to see what comes next.

peachtreeoath 2016-04-19 04:42

Deep meaning and symbolism about a coming of age teenager ready to take on the world.

blockdroppers 2016-04-19 04:54

Very amusing game!

adipson 2016-04-19 09:12

blue white red...thanks for the french 'clin d'oeil' on the capture (volontary or not ) lol

diebackstudios 2016-04-19 16:06

A small game but a good one :D good audio too :)

orukinawa 2016-04-19 17:44

Short but sweet

banana-hammers 2016-04-19 20:43

It seems to be the first level of a puzzle game.
It can become something good with some other mechanics.
Not bad for a start :)

Thanks for all the lovely comments! :) I shall publish this on steam! Now my life is future-proof thanks to this game and how well it will sell! :D 20 USD

pontus_lss 2016-04-19 20:58

I tried to find something worse, to do so was harder than the game itself.. Not very good at all, epic music though! :D

ohmaigawd 2016-04-19 21:54

I like the idea, but it could really use more levels, and maybe some more different enemies :)

tchai 2016-04-20 03:45

Really simple, but also really funny haha

Nice job Pentakill... ops, Penthaquill! :D

khanatos 2016-04-20 11:05

Congrats for complete the game!

technovirusattack 2016-04-20 15:42

I had a laugh

guillaumegwi 2016-04-20 18:02

Cool entry, I like that after the end, everything has a new meaning.

cole-and-jordan-studios 2016-04-21 00:43

Um. Alright then. At least it made me laugh.

psychomonster 2016-04-21 10:03

Haha got it ;D Nice idea... very minimalistic but very funny in some way :) It took me under one minute... i think between 30 and 50 seconds... Hope you'll release some dlc's soon :)

xanjos 2016-04-22 22:57

Pretty short but it does have some potential even though the red cube's AI was ridiculously aggressive (Actually managed to complete this without losing any lives on my 3rd go).

namrog84 2016-04-26 05:09

i won first time! woo!

penthaquill 2016-04-27 16:34

Nice job namnrog84 :)
