Shapeshifter Biker by Reuno
HOW TO PLAY :
- turn with left/right
- accelerate with up
- shapeshift with space
- see your collection with escape
Collect all the blue boxes to win. Avoid enemies and obstacles, except if you shapeshift into something that can protect you.
You're a shapeshifter biker, all alone in a desolated world, chased by angry ducks in black trucks. To escape, you need to collect all the Animal Powers scattered across the land, in mysterious blue boxes.
Once you collect an Animal Power, you can shapeshift into that Animal for 10 seconds maximum. Some animals destroy enemies, some are invulnerable, some are scary, some can ride through lava, other can fly, some are invisible, and other are, well, surprising. Once you've acquired at least one power, you can't remain shaped as a biker for long and will be randomly assigned a new shape every 15 seconds.
There are 20 different animals to collect, will you catch them all ?
Note : Due to a bug in Unity (apparently), the gamepad controls may be messed up in the Web version. I'd suggest downloading either the PC or Mac build as the game really runs poorly on the web in comparison, but in any case, if you decide to play on the web, play with your keyboard, not your gamepad.
Music by my band, Uniform Motion.
Special thanks to Andy for the songs that kept me motivated during these 3 days, to Karine for the ideas, to Julien for his help tracking a few pesky bugs, and to the cool people at Motion Twin for letting me join them for the weekend.

Also it's actually really hard to maneuver, I keep missing the pickups...
I wish the music would not reset upon death, since I die often I never get to hear the full song.
Nice game. Good job
Graphics are nicely done too but please next time put some mute key for the music. Nothing personal but since it's voiced, it gets VERY repetitive...
Another note, the text for the pickups goes by really fast, can't even read them past the title.
Nice entry otherwise for the jam, kudos.
The graphisms are nice but often you dont really understand if it's a wall, an hole or a tree.
Also the shapeshifting is nice but you dont really know what kind of advantage the shape give you. It could als be nice to have a quick shape select and assign our own shape (if i want to shift as dragon, I have to swith hamster first, and it's not nice)
Great job anyway. And the music is nice and nice part of the "mood"
I love the art style and simple yet effective gameplay.
To bad the music doesn't keep playing when I die, because it's pretty cool :D
The song is awesome, but i hate that everytime i restart the game, the song restart too :|
Awesome game anyway!
The only thing that bugged me was the tune starting out every time you restart. I also felt that the theme was tacked on but then I thought... hey, Shapeshifting biker, that's pretty cool.
Anyway congratulations. Really great work.
I really love the feel that riding in an open desert!
Congratulations :)
I like it, but hint to how shapeshift can be a little long. i cant read so fast :D
Why no link to OST? Shaaaapeeeshiiift biiiikeeer
IS GRAPHICS EVERYTHING?! think about it....?

After some time the biker disappeared. At the beginning it looked like a camera problem but I think that it was related to the position of the biker, but really awesome entry.
Amazing work you guys, all the kudos to you!
Overall 4.5/5 without hesitation!
Can you add your game on indiexpo.net ? (it's free)
