Apologies! The Unity Web builds are broken. I understand its a pain to download the binaries and unpack and test the games out. But I'd be forever grateful if you give it a shot. Thanks!

GAME: MORPH
--------------
Morph is a game of randomness, of battles, and escape.

For reasons that are complicated and boring, you're a nondescript blob. At least, that is your normal and desired form. An accident happened, you were exposed to something that now perpetually has you morphing into a number of various shapes.

You're being chased by the military who want to capture and study you. Your mission: Escape.

Make your way from the beginning across to the finish, where you can safely escape. The trip will be perilous.

CONTROLS
--------------
Please read the ingame "Instructions" menu for detailed instructions. Everything is explained in there.

Basically:
- LEFT/RIGHT Arrow keys
- UP Arrow Key
- SPACE bar

Thats it!

Congrats to everyone that submitted, and I hope everyone had a great time!

I think it would be much more fun if user could controll the shapeshifting. Good game though! :)

Kinda fun, i got stuck under the 2nd tank on my first try but I got the hang of it after a while

I understand that it would make the game too easy, but not being able to transform at will is a bit of a bummer because there are points where you're just sitting not able to pass over a wall. Maybe if it was a cycle with a set timer?

Not sure how the shape shifting was supposed to work, since it shifted both with keys 1-3 (not in the instructions) as well as seemingly random. Despite that, I liked how you could combine the different abilities to make simple combat combos. The physics of the rocket felt nice too.

It has potential but the controls are quite annoying,
sometimes it doesn't response, and the wall slows you.

Interesting concept! The shape forms were a little bit disappointing, the rocket was the only one to bring me over the most obstacles.

This is the first game I try in which our character's ability to shapeshift is beyond our control. This makes this game refreshingly different, but it also means there is a lot of waiting around for a shape which is able to go over the next obstacle.
