LD35 — Shapeshift

Goo Patrol by starpixie 2016-04-20T04:40:00

Very nice graphics and particle effects! I love upgrade systems in games, so the ship getting bigger and better hit right home for me, good job!

Go Shape Yourself by Elemental Zeal Games Studios 2016-04-20T04:17:00

My main issue with this game was that it was really hard to see the bullets flying from the enemies. I know it was supposed to help with who was safe to touch, but thats what shapes and color are for! Not a bad game, just needs some polish, keep up the good work!

Chromawarp by tower07 2016-04-20T19:15:00

I really liked the looks of this game, though the enemies were pretty brutal (I'm not the best at these action platform types) I did enjoy the gameplay, especially using the floating symbols as a goal, because each brought with it a new transformation of the stage, very nice!

The BladeShifter Tales by DrZanuff 2016-04-22T09:41:00

I really enjoyed the platforming on this, nice and responsive, and the music was really really nice! I am very impressed with the amount that was done here, especially in so little time, good job!

Blockfall by xandy 2016-04-20T20:35:00

The game has some nice graphics and weight to it, i like the way the block sinks when it hits the bottom. The control scheme I feel could use s few more options. I felt that the A and D were a little awkward for me in comparison to the arrow keys, maybe make that an available option? other than that, I like the concept of it and it fits well to the theme!

Abyssal Dream by esayitch 2016-04-20T06:50:00

I really liked the graphical aesthetic of the game, and the size of it is impressive for the time limitations. Had a few issues with controls, but overall very nice :)

Squirm by zenmumbler 2016-04-20T20:40:00

The game definitely sets an atmosphere, very creepy, but I kept getting eaten (I think) and nothing really happened, but the first time it scared the crabapples out of me, so good job!

AstroForce by jhrrsn 2016-04-20T19:11:00

So i did not have the four people to play this and actually attempted this solo, I can say that I did not get very far :P I'll try again later when I have some people to play with, but I can at least say that the graphics were very nice and the animations were surprisingly polished and smooth, good work for such a short time period!

My Strange Alien Friend by Anshul Goyal 2016-04-20T04:37:00

I liked the graphics and animations for this game, but I kept getting stuck on the platforms and my block buddy wasn't always cooperative. The platforming otherwise was nice, and the game followed the theme pretty well!

Tremor by Troyan 2016-04-20T11:51:00

I really liked the music, and the transformations of the background was pretty cool, though this is a simple infinite runner, I enjoyed playing it, good job!

The Core by Syldarion 2016-04-20T03:17:00

I like the shooting gameplay, and beside the floaty jump, the overall platforming felt pretty good! Enemies were tough, but using the controls you put in the description I ended up dying due to the pit of death! Overall nice amply and simple graphics to help carry it along. Good Job!

Polygonal by NightShadow0 2016-04-20T17:24:00

The game's graphics are simple yet effective, and the gameplay was rather fun, good job!

Super Jelly Blaster by adcrusher 2016-04-20T04:51:00

I liked the gameplay (though it was pretty hard), and the graphics were pretty nice, overall pretty good, maybe give a little more time to move those little jellies!

Soulbound by OysterKLAN 2016-04-21T03:09:00

So far this is the best game I have played so far, very nice graphics interesting platforming (especially with the use of the transformation), and extreme polish. I really liked this game, great job guys!

Shapeshifting by Tooichi 2016-04-20T22:35:00

I was happy that this was a platform, but the controls felt really floaty and unresponsive, though I kept coming back for more pain so I could get to the last level, so maybe it was good that they were like that? I kept playing so I would have to say that this game was fun, just needs more polish!

The Ball Wizard by Grand Mustasche Studios 2016-04-20T03:53:00

I like the graphical presentation of the game, but dear sheeps up high it was tough. I could make it to the third platform just barely, but my mouse kept leaving the screen so I died more time than I would like to admit, but I kept trying, so good job on making the game effective on getting you right back into it!

CHORUS by Pantelis Petsopoulos 2016-04-20T02:52:00

The music is nice and graphics are simple yet effective for the gameplay. Only problem is that the gameplay is enjoyable foe the first few minutes but become a little dull towards the end. Our game had the same issue, so I can't really knock you there! Overall nice job though!

Shapeshift by suurin 2016-04-20T17:04:00

I really enjoyed the music so good job adding that afterwards, it pairs nicely with the gameplay. Only complaint is that I felt the speed took to long to become faster, maybe have speed tethered to your score instead of the blue gates?other than that, nice game!

Under and Above by Xinelu 2016-04-20T03:55:00

I like the concept, and the graphics are ok, but the particle effects junkie in me wished there could be more FX involved in terms of when you ate something or shot at the enemies. Good experience overall though!

Audioplasmic by uvwar 2016-04-20T04:13:00

While not really a game, I do say this was quite an experience. The music choices were nice and I enjoyed the ways the particles moved to the beat. Not really anything else to say on it but good job!

The Cursed Forest by Gametery 2016-04-20T04:34:00

I really liked the graphics and animations for death, they were very well animated! I also like the use of the house as a hub for the levels. Platforming was pretty good too, only had a few issues were the jump felt a little to far to make, but overall a nice game!

EnergyShift by Miziziziz 2016-04-20T22:30:00

I liked the game, took me a few seconds to get the gameplay, but once you got it, you get it, very nice concept, was able to actually beat it with very little frustration!

ShiftSword by SkullPixel 2016-04-20T12:08:00

The overall game is nice and polished, and the transforming weapon is fun, though i ended up using the bow a lot, which may be why i died so quickly and often :P I like the art, simple yet effective, good job!

Snap & Shift by Cowa 2016-04-20T22:24:00

I really liked the presentation of the game, but it was super duper short. A great deal of fun in those few moments though, really cool concept, great work!

Sergei's Virus by avinashd 2016-04-20T06:43:00

I liked the concept, simple code based editing, but oddly satisfying, good job!

VHS WARS by goodbadokay 2016-04-20T03:21:00

Now this game was really cool! Very slick graphics and nice use of filters to emphasize your health state! The transformation actually effected gameplay so very nice on that. Good job!

Dark Moon by MistySoulsGames 2016-04-20T03:31:00

So the initial title screen made it seem like this would be a different type of game, which may have affected my expectations, but I did like the graphics, its just that the music really felt out of place since the gameplay itself isn't very fast paced. Not a bad game though, just needs some new music and a little variation in monster types perhaps? or possibly have the werewolves attack other people yo help speed up the process?

L.I.G.H.T. by Flygamer101 2016-04-20T03:27:00

The graphics for this game were simple but the lighting effects made them really shine! Transforming into the different types of things was tough for me, but proved to be pretty interesting once I got the hang of it. Very nice entry!

It's Hard Out There for a Reverse Werewolf by dwemthy 2016-04-20T22:21:00

The graphics were nice, and the controls worked pretty well, but man are those wolves fast! I enjoyed the running animation, it is quite funny!

Hedron Collider by ProgrammerSteve 2016-04-20T03:47:00

The music makes this game. Going through all the objects is made much easier because the music is on beat with the shapes, which helps a whole lot to keep your focus and reflexes up! Really good job guys!

Shadowshifter by Ilseroth 2016-04-20T04:21:00

I really enjoyed the gameplay, simple and fun. Hacking enemies works great, had issues with my mouse leaving the gaming area (sorry i played it on the web), but that wasn't to much of an issue. I like the shadow mechanic and for me the graphics were pretty nice actually, nice job sir!

Crush Your Friends by nextreality 2016-04-20T03:38:00

haha thanks! Glad you liked it :D

Shifty Witch by jordgubben 2016-04-20T17:35:00

The game was pretty fun, a little more could have been done to maybe add some life to it in terms of particle effects, but I do like that you can spam the space bar, so killing monsters wasn't a chore, very nice!

We Made Rock Paper Scissors by GenericTeamName 2016-04-19T18:15:00

I love the announcer! It was confusing at first because I wasn't sure who I was for about 10 seconds and I got clobbered by the AI, but it was surprisingly fun after I got a hand of it. It's like minimalist smash bros!

Dango Smash by goost 2016-04-20T12:05:00

I really enjoyed the gameplay to this, pretty much a twist to whack-a-mole, but a little harder with the square vs. circle mechanic. The far back one were kinda hard to hit since the game was in a 2D plain, but still enjoyed the experience, including the "sound effects" nice job!

FarKae City by LeClaw 2016-04-20T11:57:00

Very very nice graphics and presentation, it is a very polished game! the gameplay is a little hard with keyboard controls (wish I had an xbox controller) but I liked the game, very nice!

Breaking Fat by SantiHisteria 2016-04-20T07:06:00

I like the attention to detail in the graphics, specifically the flying monsters in the background, it was a nice little touch that many would usually ignore. Gameplay wise it was pretty tough, especially with the flap bird flying guys, but I enjoyed it, good job!

Escape from Clockwork Prison by Tacohej 2016-04-19T18:27:00

It's a really relaxing game, the gameplay is relaxing, the music is relaxing, *yawn* the art is relaxing. Let me... take a quick nap........................

Hungry Blue Fox by ThaRemo 2016-04-20T04:31:00

I really liked the art and music for this game, and the concept for transformation was pretty cool. I look forward to any new levels you add!

SPELLDOWN! by pixelpotions 2016-04-21T03:17:00

I liked the graphics for this game, and the gameplay was simple yet addicting, kept trying to beat all those darn wizards!

MazeShifters by joaomosmann 2016-04-20T11:47:00

It's kinda hard to do multiplayer games via online, maybe try to change game into a local multiplayer? The concept seems cool, just seems a waste to spend a lot of it on waiting for other players. Would love to try it again if you guys decide to make a control scheme for local stuff!

Splash 'n Shift by linseyray 2016-04-20T17:17:00

The presentation of this is very nice, the particle effects are colorful and have a nice weight to them, and the music is light yet pleasant in the background, very nice experience!

Phase Shift by Allthebees 2016-04-19T18:34:00

The controls feel incredibly tight! Great use of the theme.

Come Back To Life by guslarsen 2016-04-20T20:47:00

I liked this game, pretty much stayed a ghost to bypass all the baddies, but I enjoyed the animation and environment quality!

Shape Escape by JoeManaco 2016-04-20T04:01:00

Now this game was impressive. Multiple transformation and all of them with a unique use showcased through the tailored levels. I am very impressed that this was made in only a short amount of time! Very good job man!

GeoShift by WASD 2016-04-20T07:02:00

The graphics are amazing and the gameplay is challenging yet fun, very impressed with what was done in the time limit here, great work!

RhythmicalCreation by lycoris102 2016-04-20T17:08:00

I really enjoyed the music for this game, and after a little bit of struggling I was ale to match the rhythm a few times, very nice effect with the bars becoming different colorful buildings, good job!

Exhuman by Arvydas 2016-04-20T02:48:00

I enjoyed the graphics of this game a lot, but the controls were a little tough and I couldn't open the chests, for some reason 'E' wasn't working for me. The games graphics alone are truly impressive though!

Bloodbearer by emielboven 2016-04-20T19:35:00

The graphics are very nice, and the overall combat is simple and fun, but I do agree that the music can get a little...intense on the ears. As a fellow artist though, I commend you for your coding abilities of which I have none, so good job making all of this in the limited time available!

SheepShift by nyang888 2016-04-19T18:22:00

I feel like this game takes place in a sheep-themed post-apocalyptic world. Where shepherds must sheep shift or become sheep shifted.

Aftertile by LOSTALLOY 2016-04-20T03:07:00

I really liked the graphics and animation for this game, and I liked the ability to go through walls (gotta avoid those spikes!). Overall a nice game!

Boolean Differences by ruchirbapat 2016-04-20T16:55:00

Came here from my game Crush Your Friends, and to be honest this is pretty good stuff, I agree though with the comments on the controls, while not really bad, the perspective chosen makes it tough to get the shapes through the holes. I liked the music, and the graphics, while simple, worked for the game quite nicely! And your only 14?! puts me to shame, good work :)

Watery by aeveis 2016-04-22T09:34:00

The game was very nice, I liked the presentation of it and the mechanic was interesting. Struggled on a few levels, but overall very nice, the water/liquid looked quite pretty actually!

Poly Shape by pabloruizroldan 2016-04-20T06:56:00

I really liked the transformations in this game, especially how you could mix them together, such as the speed of the circle with the force of the square! Only problem i can really think of is the acceleration, I died a lot at the beginning because the circle would shoot off the ledge, but other than that good job!

how to run by emanuelesan 2016-04-20T20:42:00

Not much to the game, but I really liked the animation quality, and the gameplay itself was pretty interesting, had to make sure not to spam click and properly pace myself, much like a real race, so a good job for your first attempt!

Cactus Corner by Millefey 2016-04-20T06:45:00

Very nice graphics, very clean and stylized! I enjoy match 'em up games so this was pretty fun for me, good job!

Black Heart by luquio 2016-04-22T09:28:00

The intro music really got my head bobbing, almost hypnotic! Gameplay was tough, but the graphics were very nice and the game seemed really polished, great job!

4E: Four Elements by Redpillgamedev 2016-04-20T03:04:00

So I believe that the theme was very well understood, but my main issues were with the controls and the element types. I know that it requires analysis to see what type enemies hate, but some were a little obscure. In regards to the controls, the mouse buttons were a little award for me, kept trying to press space for some reason to attack. The graphics were not bad, and i actually enjoyed the music, so not a bad overall game!

ShapeShot by retrograze 2016-04-20T03:42:00

So I liked the music a lot in this game, specifically the intro screen! The graphics for the game were simple, but I liked them, and I think that the transforming bullets thing goes very well with the theme! Agin music is great and helped through the many deaths :P

Cata Crunch by ThisIsVeryPointless 2016-04-20T04:25:00

Overall a nice game, I do love me some good all snake gameplay and the two player and health were nice touches to change it up!

Pluto's Tears by kestrelgames 2016-04-20T04:10:00

I really liked this game. The satisfaction from eating everything (including the jab at Trump, very nice ;) plus the pretty graphic aesthetic and pleasant music combined to make a very entertaining game! Plus the controls were nice ( i was using a mouse) just had to flick pluto around for a bit! Good job!

POLYBRAWL by nk 2016-04-20T19:31:00

I really enjoyed the music to this, but the gameplay seemed a little chaotic for me. I would try to time my movement to coincide with the enemy, but then I would transform and promptly be knocked back by the AI. caused a little frustration, but I can see the potential!

Squarcle by bagface 2016-04-20T03:11:00

The concept is pretty interesting and I quite liked the feel of the physics. The transformation animation and graphics were simple, but quite effective for the overall game. Only complaint was sound, but since there was a mute button for that I am ok with it. Good Job!

Ninja Pet Changer Adventure by davidkanc 2016-04-20T12:00:00

The graphics for this game are nice, but the character moves a little to slowly, maybe speed him a up a little bit? Other than that the game seems pretty good, impressive for such a short time period!

NeoTrap by omarhuseynov011 2016-04-20T17:20:00

The graphics for this game are beautiful, really love the sound bars as walls, and the movement of the camera all help to enforce the rhythm of this game! Very pretty, and enjoyable, good work!

Light My Darkness by RanikoGames 2016-04-20T19:27:00

The game was really laggy for me (I was using the web version) so my experience may not actually dictate the overall quality of the game, I did find the platforming to be a little floaty and some areas were really dark. I like the concept of light absorption, but there wasn't any feedback to absorbing the light so I never knew if the mechanic was working. I think with a little more polish that this game can be a contender with some of the more simple yet polished games that have also been submitted. Keep up the good work!
