Stream was amazing. The game is awesome, good idea. Thanks. :)

Amazing game, Too bad i only joined the stream the last hour or so. Would love if you still further develop the game.

Nice puzzle but the build got kinda laggy on my computer(win8).

Very cool style, nice execution. The puzzles are pretty wacky!

Couldn't run the OSX version

Very cool, reminds me of portal

Nice level design!!
Great entry! :)

Very neat! I liked the thought involved in some of these puzzles, though it was a bit obtuse at times. The visuals were neat, though the lack of any shading or texturing made depth a struggle in a few instances. Really neat effort!

very good idea - easy to understand, intuitive gameplay, nice color combination - has addictive potential!

Impressive amount of hand designed 3d puzzles for a Compo game. They're pretty easy though. I wasn't sure it fit the theme, but I guess the shape shifting is that you're moving shapes around?

hyden 2016-04-18 17:14

@DifferentName - you have to change the light and direction of a beam of light. Literally altering it's shape xD

Hi Hyden! :D Really nice game, looks like you put much effort in making this one! Really interesting puzzles. It got kinds stuck in that level after the city. Seems pretty complicated puzzles! Simple visuals fit it nicely, making it not too crowded. I wish I had some music playing on background! Great implementation of the theme in original way, with challenging puzzles!

Great overall design, got stuck on the puzzle just after the maze. The lack of shading/light/gradients made navigation more difficult than necessary.

Looks pretty cool, any plans for a linux version?

batmanasb 2016-04-19 05:24

Awesome mechanics but the puzzles get a little too confusing in the later levels

tgrehawi 2016-04-19 21:28

I fell thorugh the floor exiting the max ;~;

wg_phancock 2016-04-21 01:38

Great idea and mechanics, and a nice visual style.

The puzzle designs could get a bit frustrating later on, though - you'd figure out the puzzle and make one little mistake jumping and have to start the level all over after falling in a pit, waiting for a platform to move very slowly, etc.

Really great game to play! I actually watched part of this on Twitch. The utilization of the shapes to progress fits this LD theme well! Loved the mechanics, too. Good work! Could use some sounds and music. x)

plaguespark 2016-04-21 04:22

A very solid idea!

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 like itch or gjolt.
So we can include also your game in the video ;)
p.s. write #LDJAM in the game's description

matiasbontempo 2016-04-21 15:07

Well done, very creative idea. I loved this game!

igorsouza 2016-04-21 22:07

woah! i really love the graphics and the design choice

jungle 2016-04-21 23:42

Nice game! A Portal-style puzzle with great design! Great entry!

dmitrix 2016-04-23 05:21

Really fun puzzles! I'm not really sure why, but there is something about this game that makes depth perception difficult. It might just be due to the lack of textures and shading. Regardless, great job! I would love to see a post-compo version of this with sound.

xzippyzachx 2016-04-23 23:20

Ya he is working on it

Really nice game! I liked the puzzles and graphics. Too bad there no music playing in the background. But still, great entry!

2016-04-25 18:49

i'm still waiting it !!

rialgar 2016-04-27 21:47

lovely graphics, splendid mechanics, but please provide an option to turn off the headbob, I got severe motion sickness

jupiter_hadley 2016-05-03 19:51

Very nice graphics! I included it in my video compilation series of Ludum Dare games, if you’d like to check them out :) https://youtu.be/8gYXle65h9c
