Fun with great audio and visuals, but a little too simple on the gameplay side.

really nice game ! :D

Fun game with great graphics. The greedy monster frog was the far easiest one to control. Always got hit fast with the other ones :)

fun game, but couldn't keep my attention for long. Graphics and audio are beautiful.

Beautiful graphics, great audio (that track is so jaunty, haha)! as you can no doubt tell I am a big fan of glowing things in games, and I think the glow/light effects added a lot of atmosphere to the game.

Love the audio, love the visuals! Found myself unsure why any of the wrong crystals would actually kill me as opposed to simply making me take on a different form. Also unsure what leveling up actually did for me or the game. But definitely was fun!

Beautiful game, the art. *-* love it nice job

I liked how the different forms had different gameplay tactics, and the graphics were good.

Adding something like an X button instead of mouse button to control would be cool as well

Great entry! I loved the graphics and specially how fluid the animations felt. Music was good as well, but eventually it became a bit repetitive.

I agree with people about the frog being the easiest, but the different skills of each shape are cool and blend in nicely with the game.

Nice little game, I liked the visuals.

Simple one-click fun. Nice work! :)

That was really fun! Neat mechanics too; it was quite interesting being able to play the same game with three different control styles!

Realisation is great, and game is challenging. However, the frog shape seems to be the most usefull, far over the two others. And the most fun to play, in fact. :D

Fun game with interesting switcheroo mechanic!

shapemorph 2016-05-01 22:32

Nice work!!

Simple but fun. The graphics were great.

cliffracerx 2016-05-02 19:26

A tad simple, and a bit hard to control, but an okay entry. The audio was funny, though!

santiandrade 2016-05-03 18:08

So funny! I like the main mechanic. Graphics and audio is awesome. Good work!

Got 85 points in the end.
In general, I found the frog form to be OP and didn't really consider the other forms, and the fact that later levels have more diamonds falling, thus reducing the risk of running out of time, doesn't help. So, while shapeshifting mechanic is there, I didn't really use it (it mostly happened around the endgame, when there were so many diamonds that the critter just kept changing forms randomly). I think this needs balancing.

Audiovisuals wise, the game is good, though I've noticed the music after a while stops playing; I'd rather expect it looped instead.

Solid game overall, but it doesn't stand out to me yet. ^^'
