Very simple, well made game. I included it in my video compliation series of Ludum Dare games, if you’d like to check them out :) https://youtu.be/NeUaByS_1JI

Not the most original one as you already pointed out, but well made and it's plenty of fun the first few times.
Thank you Jupiter_Hadley for playing my game and including it in the video??
Thank you for playing JoeManaco. Glad you liked it.
Congratulation on your first game - welcome to the crowd!
:)
It's not very challenging, but it's surprisingly fun to move the ship around.
Welcome buddy to the game developers! Nice first game
An awesome game for the first game. The theme is badly executed in my opinion, and maybe the width is small, by the way, I enjoyed the game and as I said, a great game for the first one. Keep learning and welcome to the hobby
Thank you guys :)
Very easy and fun to play. Nice complete little entry for your first go. well done! Love the audio too.
Made me felt as if I was playing a shooter game on an old Nokia. It was fun tho. For some reason graphics and sounds were alluring D:
The ships stopped spawning after a while btw.
corupta I'll try to fix that bug
I liked your music choice a lot!
Congratulations on your first game :)
pretty fun
Oh, I wish we could edit these.
To add to what I said above, the game is complete, and a great first entry. Everything does what it's supposed to, and it feels pretty satisfying to move around and blow things up.
Nice work :)
:)
Nice job for your first game! The music fits well, as does the art style. I'd like to see the shapeshifting play more of a part in the game though. It is also a bit easy, maybe make some enemies that take longer to kill?
Hi, nice game ! We're realizing a video with several games of the Ludum Dare #35.
Can you add your game on indiexpo.net ? (it's free)
So we can include also your game in the video ;)
p.s. write #LDJAM in the game's description
Freank
Done http://www.indiexpo.net/en/games/shapey-jets
Welcome to the jam! :D
Had fun playing your game, good effort for you first time!
Congratulations on your first game :) Anyway the game itself was quite fun but the auto-fire seems to make everything too easy.
A big update is coming soon.
Thank you all for playing my game.
Lots of fun to play, but eventually ships stop coming. Also, you're technically supposed to drop out of the graphics category if you use any sprites you didn't make during the weekend.
Nice graphics, nice music. It need a little more of "shapeshifting".
Game Is updated
Nice, I bet, you put it on mobile market.
great game for a first one !!!
Well done! Congrats on finishing you first game. And for a Ludum Dare no doubt.
Well done. Simple concept for a game which is enjoyable. Neat ++
Very nice for a first game! Coincidentally my first completed game was during the last Ludum Dare and was also a top down space shooter. Good job and keep working at building your skills, game development is a lot of fun :) I ran into the bug where enemies stopped spawning but I see you fixed that, I'm going to try the post jam version and see if I can beat that high score of yours :p
Cool, solid little game! Didn't have much Shapeshift theme though :P I think the difficulty curve could use some balancing though, at least for me it was too easy at first, almost to the point of being boring, and then it VERY quickly devolved into a screen completely full of unavoidable bullets.
Cool game, man. Congrats on finishing your first entry! I hope you keep at it and improve with each LD :)
Congrats of your first ld. Nice game!
Hey you! Congrats on your first game!
Be sure to come back, we'll be waiting!
Neat graphical style, the scrolling backgrounds worked well, health bars, score etc were about as good as they could look. Player sprite was slightly rough around the edges.
Shapshift wasn't really that intrinsic to the game. Seeing it become more important as a game mechanic would be nice.
Audio was well fitting.
Eventually enemies just stopped spawning and nothing happened. Was this intentional?
I played the initial release for better fairness in the rating so the ships sadly stopped spawning after a while. The game is not immensely original but it is really juicy, the player feedbacks is really nicely done and I'll admit I was a bit addicted. Nice game!
I fixed the spawning issue in the new version @alyphen.
