All this graphics are very impressive!
Something missing for an adventure game: choice in dialogues (even if it's flase choices)

This game is much beatiful in graphics and its well done as a point-e-click game! I think it could have more itens for more harder puzzles, but as a gamejam its very good the way it is now! It has a very nice humor and mood to it, i just think you should made a button to quick pass the mouse dialogue, it take a lot of time sometimes to see all the texts dialogue again because of a missclick and this can be annoying! But very fun and beaultiful game, congrats!

I have not the time to do all what i want of course...it was very just because i passed a lot lot lot of time on the graphism... 3 hours sleeping saturday night, 3 sunday and all the rest with coca zero, coffee front the paper and the computer ! thanks for your comments and suggestions !!!

Very impressive animations for a jam entry. Well done.

I would like to be able to skip the texts especially when I read the before.

It's a fun beautiful entry, well done. The art is really amazing. I never tried hi resolution games in AGS but it seems you made it work without trouble.

I found one bug though: After cutting the wire you can still get electrocuted if you touch the wire on the balcony. That had me second guessing whether I missed something else, but I solved it in the end.

Well that was fun. The puzzles were sometimes obvious, sometimes not, but interesting and not difficult anyway. The ground shaking animation was annoying. Also, I'd like to be able to skip through text when I click something for the second time.

Graphics were excellent. Animation doesn't look smooth, but drawing so many things in 3 days is respectable already.

By the way, I got electrocuted be clicking wires in water after I cut the wires.

@qkcik you had the chance for the soundtrack, I almost sing and do everything with the votes (jingles, music, ambient sounds) ... but I have not had time to realize all that .. .but it sure if I could, it would have made you bleed from the ears! then it's a blessing in disguise! lol

@Strike ... oui, ça et l'expression quand on parle à la poule sont deux petites subtilités bien française lol

The OS/X and Linux links are pointing to the same file as the Windows link, which is containing Windows-only binaries.

To make OS X and Linux binaries, you have to compile binaries targeted to those specific platforms.

Those graphics are really impressive! It's a nice click and point adventure. The adventure is quite short and the riddles quite simple, but its still great work for that short development time.

Heya, very good point and click ! I like the design you did on characters, and level design is good too !
Sounds may be a bit repetitive on level two, but it's ok.

Absolutely amazing graphics for a Jam game. I am in awe ;)

My only real gripe about the game was the long waiting time for dialogue. At least I couldn't find a way to speed them up, and sometimes when testing things I had to wait long times reading the same thing again. The puzzles were ok.

But, what really made this game stand out was the amazing graphics. The sound was also very good.

Your animations were also wonderful, especially the transformation animations.

I work for 4 years on a game project in point and click who will not have to delay to get out of steam, gog etc which should please you, so if you are ferrus of point and click' old style ... To monitor my game project, you can be on www .adipson.fr or on my twitter account @Adipson_Studio

Well firstly I must appreciate you for your work, really well done in such a short time and you being alone.. the quality is amazing :D
That being said, a lot could be done in game design, feed backs and other such aspects. Overall it doesn't really connect to shape shifting, but I understand.. as you have made an adventure using shape shift as a them and within such a short time period.. just another what i would suggest is, probably give the freedom to the player to skip text, as its would be convenient if the player has to meet the character again.
Anyway all the very best (: I liked the mouse-bat xD and good job on the BAT(weapon) from the walking dead, nice touch there. :D
Hey who do you think that guy killed in the last ep of the walking dead? :p
thegoofromspace
06. May 2016 · 10:29 UTC
The art was pretty good! Sounds were okay, but a bit tinny.

Last puzzle was tough until I thought to myself, "Hmm... I haven't used my bat-form yet this screen... OH! I should've been looking UP!" which was clever.

Nice Walking Dead reference... Also liked the Married with Children poster. Nice little adventure game, overall.
