shift Smash by Fuchter

[raw]
made by Fuchter for LD35 (JAM)
Our second Ludum Dare Game is finally here! Shift Smash is all about the randomness, the player wonders around the map, killing everything in it's way while his body/shape changes! First you are a flying bird with a gun, next thing you know you are a half soldier, half fish!

You move with a - w - d - space
Your special ability is activated with ctrl
Your attack is activated with mouse 1 click (left click)

I like the concept of shapeshifting every 30 seconds, and that affecting your abilities.
It still needs some polishing for jumping/aiming and stuff, but with a little bit more of hours put in, it could be a good platformer/puzzle game :)

lol You totally nailed the theme, and overall the game was good. I could actually see this gimmick being able to carry a full game if you really planed it out.

Super run, and I like the randomness. The bird head is super OP and I love it!

Nice original idea. Shapeshifting every 30 seconds is a nice idea. Needs a bit more polish with the gameplay itself. But overall it is good.

I like the concept. it's sad to see how short it is. i would've loved more levels.

Really like the idea! I found it kinda tricky to attack, though I was on a touchpad, so maybe just the click input was dodgy! A really original take on the theme.
