Cool graphics and audio and also great game feel in general.
I liked the simple but effective mechanic but in the end the most important thing is luck.
Great job!

Great job!
Very easy to understand mechanic and also well balanced game.
Also pixel graphics and sounds are really cool, and all the game are in perfect harmony-
After some plays I would reach 24 moons.
Great work, Mr Fanakito of Triana, evenmore for a compo entry.
Interesting mechanic and also good puzzles. However at firt I cannot figured out what does any of the shapes and I had to read it in LD entry.
Also controls are a bit tricky.
Nice work!
Nice and fun game. the thing I liked the most is the way you have distributed the scenario (coins, enemies...) and how you make the parallax after starting flying.
I had only missed a camara movement before falling because it's very difficult to know whether you are going to face an enemy or not.
Also, I know its the first time for you with this framework, and that is a plus.
Great work!
Really like the art of this game.
The controls are a little vague sometimes, but I enjoyed the game
Nice graphics. Also nice music and a good game taking in consideration that is a solo entry. Congrats!
Btw, I like the way you explain the mechanics, its very easy to understand it.
Totally awesome game.
I played it without read the description and it was shocking to discover what the game was about. Specially love the art
Love modular robot so nice idea and nice concept. I think it is a funny way to understand the theme. Bot controls feel a litle imprecises. Keep working and try to improve the user experience and maybe make easier the level design. Great job!
Yes, it is a very short game, but o dont know, it was nice anyway. With more work, you could continue developing the idea and add more details, art o enemies, of course.
Good work
When your are not a sphere, it seems a little buggy. The game is fast, dificult and funny. It remembered me to AudioSurf.
Nice entry.
Very innovative mechanic and use of the theme. I also love music and graphics. Congratulations for so great game
Very well polished game, congrats!
I loved not only the graphics but also the visual feedback and sounds.
Nice starting idea.
I would like to play an advanced version of that game, cause I really like the russian style and the way that you implement the theme. Good Work
I liked the mechanic and how you introduce it to the player. It's a pity that there are only few levels.
82 points. I LOVE IT! Nice musci and very difficult (but it is fantastic for me!) Great job!
Really fun game! It's a great arcade with a lot of feedback.
I give you 5 sanics!
Personally I think it has potential to become to a great game, but the combat is confusing and it need to improve its controls. Great concept anyway.
I liked the procedural levels and how the difficulty is being increased, but I missed some explanation ingame.
Anyway, great mechanic combination. Nice work!
Great graphics and 3D and shaders. The control is very dificult to handle. Very nice entry. Good work!
Great arcade guys! Lovely animations and even better music.
We want a smartphone version!
I need this game on my phone!
I rally like the transition between different shapes and the timer add a constant tension to the game.
Excelent game.
Great game! A perfect mood. You got me engaged till the end.
Very simple but effective game, mechanics are very easy to understand and that's great.
Audio and graphics are great also, great work here.
Now let me give you 3 easy things I would do for make it better:
1 - All the game is controller by keyboard, and you need the mouseclick for retrying. Make it also possible with keys and it would be less tedious to retry.
2- Give the player a reason for not been always pressing "Fire button". For example: Player velocity decreases if fire button is active.
3 And last but not least, don't allow the player to go to the botton of the screen, and it will be a more powerful reason for shape-shift.
Again, great work!
What...wait...WHAT?
I still don't know whether I loved or hated this gam,e. But I lol'd trying to figure it out.
Interesting entry
Great and easy to understand concept. You have done a great job.
I think there are few easy things you can change in order to inprove the gameplay:
1 - Posibility of undo a shapeshift and recover a movement. It turns a bit tedious to have to restart an entire level because of a mistake.
2 - More levels. It's known that there is not enough time in a game jam for including many levels but you can take it into account for a post-jam version.
3- And if it is that the case: Try to include different materials (ice, sand...) with different behaviours.
I love the concept.
At first it seemed to me very difficult. I like also the descriptions, it was a nice touch
Nice graphics and level design.
I also loved the epic intro with that sense of humour.. Great work!
Very close to reality. They never call me back. I like the voice of the green thing.Maybe it needs to admit more possible answers, but i undertand that it was only 72 hours.
Interesting concept and nice music.
Really funny game! A perfect mix of fun mechanic and humorous gameplay and audio.
The only thing I would improve is game feel. Try to use some particles and camera effects and the game would be even better.
Great job guys!
Simple but effective gameplay
It is a little difficult, maybe the controls need an extra work, but i like that every character has its own way to control it. Nice atmosphere too
Great music and fun game.
When you play for a while it turns to a real challenge!
Great entry, nice graphics and sounds. I also think music is great but doesn't fit very much with the game.
The best thing is the funny mechanics. You don't explain every character mechanic but I don't think that it would be really necesary actually. In fact I enyoyed a lot with every thunder trying to figure out what was the mechanic of the new character.
Also, very funny ending, I could not help laughing out loud.
Great work guys!
I love the art of this game.
I think this is a good start and a good concept, but definitely needs more work to feel really good.
On the web version, controls and sound had some problems. Nice concept and hard to stay alive. I liked it
Great work both!
Good idea, but there are some bugs when you try to change your shape into an obstacle.
Nice work. I would prefer to use the mouse or the A and D keys to turning the player, but still the game dont feel unconfortable. Love the "classic look" of the game.
It needs more levels but I like the concept and how it feels. Good work, it is a funny game
A competitive game!
It took us a time to master the controls, I found it a little tricky but once we knew it, it was war.
Also I liked the music and the minimalistic style.
Finally, I think taht if you dont kick the ball, it always go to the right.
Congratulations, it is a funny game.
Great effort.
Even with the same mechanichs, maybe two or three more levels would save you the day
Great game and very interesting mechanics. I found some difficults when you stand on the edge of a movement platform, but nothing important.
Wow! Love the puzzle style. The game difficulty is a little high (at least, the first times that you play it) but when you master the controls it became into a very funny and challenger game. Good work!
Hi there! I love this music track, but in my opinion is too intrusive for a game. The game is like a lsd version of flappy bird. It is funny but i found it too difficult some times and less intuitive. Good work anyway, it was fun.
Nice game.
I would try too add a "skip button" for the tutorial.
Also, I would prefeer to increase the challenge of the game with more speed instead of changing the shapes in the last moment.
I needed many tries to make a decent score, but when you undertand the controls it is funny.
It is a funny game but it feels a little repetitive to me. The art is nice and the gameplay/mechanics simple.
I miss a little more challenge, it woul be interesting if you could die. I like also the fast gameplay.
@edve98 have you tried itch.io version? we dont' have any linux version (yet) but maybe web version in itch it would work better for you.

It was very adictive! I really enjoyed it trying to complete all the levels.
I would reduce the time between you die and the next try to make the gameplay more dinamic due it is a dificult game and the player will die a lot.
Good work!
Same problem over here, Data folder not found.
Nice graphics. I think you can improve the feelings with a background parallax.
Also it is a very cool mechanic, and it would be better if the game teaches you about it instead of reading it in LD page.
Very funny story also. Good job, guys!
