Glyph Morpheus by Ted Brown
Glyph Morpheus is a fever dream of a runner game. Morph your three-dimensional bit vessel into the proper glyph so it may pass through the 64 gates of Core Logic, which wind and curve around themselves in a realtime display of graphicstravaganza!*

Use H to hack time.**
This was a solo effort that turned into a jam due to a late start. It's not as flash or swell or fantastic as the beautiful concoctions I've seen floating around already, but it's fun! Enjoy! And thanks for playing!

Made using Unity, Blender, Photoshop, Figure, OS X Text-To-Speech, Audacity, and BFXR.
UPDATE! I exported the web version with a smaller native resolution so it could be embedded. No other changes were made.

on slope down it gets real hard...
great job!
Two weird things though:
1) Hack Time? Not sure how that worked, didn't seem to do much, at least not consistently.
2) At some point, the next "shapes" appeared in the upper right corner of the hud, along with the number to press. That made things very easy even at ultra speed and took my eyes away from the main part of the game. Not sure why.
Otherwise, one of the most fun entries so far in my list. Kudos :)
1) Hack time works while you're playing, but I only drop the hint after you die. It basically halves your speed.
2) At high speed, with certain curves and twists, it's nearly impossible to see the gate in time to react. So the next shape appears in the upper right corner once you start to approach top speed. It disappears if you slow down.
Thank you everyone! Glad you're having fun!
