Not bad. Gameplay is smooth and the enemy movements look dynamic, plus the shapeshift mechanic is interesting. Only issues are that the music gets tiring very quickly, the executable is quite large, and I get this error when I die:

I really like the dark feeling that both the art and the music convey. The gameplay is also not bad.

Art is pretty nice, and things seem to run smoothly, but I had basically no idea what I was doing. Apart from the instructions (which didn't seem to help), there wasn't any tutorialisation in the game. I ended up stuck in a form that couldn't do anything and then I died, getting the same error as WeaverDeveloper.
Overall, interesting little game, would just like to have a better idea of what I'm supposed to do!

I really like the atmosphere of this game. I'm not sure if I knew what I was doing but it was fun. The only thing I seen was my attacks seems to stop working when I changed forms.

I like the mood of the game. The music though is a little bit too repetitive.

Very nice graphics, but gameplay is a bit slow.
Overall very good job!

It seemed like a cool concept, but unfortunately on my machine I found that it began to stutter and lag too seriously to make extended gameplay worthwhile. Based on the first minute or so while it ran smoothly, I was thoroughly impressed with the graphics and smooth controls; it seems like a great concept to expand upon!

The game looks pretty nice. The gameplay mechanics are a bit confusing.
