Interesting concept. Well polished. The switch in the moods with the artstyle is neat and lends itself really well to the overall game. Music as well, fits the atmosphere, giving it that nice and somber/creepy mix which meshes really well with the whole puzzle mechanic. Interesting level design, one issue however is that it is fairly easy to end up trapping yourself between barricades with no way out.
I really enjoyed this game! We thought of using the Kitsune idea with Tails and I'm glad someone used that. The season shift was a neat mechanic. Some parts were very twitchy which was kind of weird and you can get infinitely stuck in the level if you get under the balls. The trail looks really cool and I like the Music modifications for season. Sound Effects would be nice and having the Thorns be a different colour than platforms (kept thinking they were platforms and running into them) maybe an offshade of Green.
Hi I'm doing a second comment cause I really loved your game. I had it open for almost 24h trying so often to try and beat the second last level. (Took me too long to realize I didn't have to be on the frozen lake at the bottom to make it hit the switch). Was a really fun game and me and my team enjoyed playing it :) I spent many more hours than I expected if nothing else
Amusing! I think this concept would have been better done in a top down view, though.
Loved the game! I feel like it was too forgiving and by the end I was hoping it would kill me so perhaps making it take more health, toning down the health you get back on heart and toning down number of hearts would help. Also, transforming was hard cause the order isn't displayed anywhere and you can't pick which to transform into. Aside from that well done!
For sure, Freank! Sorry I'm only getting to this now, I was at a convention. I've added it at http://www.indiexpo.net/en/games/mimicry
There seems to be a bit of an issue with the web version. We're taking a look into it, but if there's any trouble please download the game as we can confirm that the version works.
Web version should be working again
