LD35 — Shapeshift

This is a good start to what could easily become a great game to play, the graphics are in a consistent style which is nice.

And the timing aspect is a good feature which allows you to compete with yourself over and over. (Fastest time so far 24.59)

I ran into a couple of issues with the collision physics, where I could tunnel through some of the floors when falling fast. A general improvement would be to check all four corners for collisions rather than just the centre of the player, as it appears you can fall and jump through the edge of platforms.

Graphical improvement, render the switches and buttons in front of the player so they can be seen at all times.

Mechanics improvement, increase distance from which you can activate a button or switch, personally found it a bit too tight around the object.

Also in game instructions might be a nice addition somewhere.


You have given me a few ideas to extend my game, so thanks for that :)

Good mechanic and well implemented. The physics is just about right to be easy to pick up and then make it more challenging later on. Nice difficulty progression through the levels.
