Octomime by eymrich
Warning:
The game is incomplete!
Web version is heavy and laggy due no optimization!
In this game you take the role of a Mimic Octopus. It's one of the few animals capable of literally shapeshifting himself.
You will travel around and eating other fishes, so you will increase your size. You should use the other forms(for now only 1... bugged :D) to avoid sharks that will hunt you down if you keep too close.
Keyboard control:
left - right arrow to turn around
keep SPACE down to start moving.
Press 1 to change form(in a sponge)
Mouse wheel to change zoom.
In theory, you should run from the sharks, alas i wasn't able to finish this part(and many other parts too!). While eating smaller fish you gain size and the ability to eat all the others fish, shark included after a while.
The shapeshifting is a morph that breaks the mesh material and i don't really know how to fix that now!:D
Renato Kuurstra - Scripting, Audio( .. ), a bit of everything.
Jakob Furbo - Scripting and particles
Daniele Gamba - 3d Models and textures
Hope it's worth a laugh! Next year will be better :D
