Played it from start to end :D The AI is challenging, but not hard enough to irritate.

I think the main issue is with intuitiveness - the player starts out with octopus and no other forms, and using the first ability doesn't really provide any feedback, so at the beginning I thought the ability simply doesn't work.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Also, I kinda skipped over the fact that there are ruins where I should obtain other forms. Personally, I'd prefer if they were all available from the very beginning, since they all need to be levelled up individually, anyway; so it introduces additional complication for little challenge. Another thing is no apparent penalty for death (aside from going back to the beginning); thus making me not very motivated to care about my life. ^^'\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Still, pretty good entry overall, even if the last boss pretty much boils down to chasing the 3rd form leaving destructive waves in its wake."},{"author_name":"Tex Killer","author_uid":"7901","time":"Apr 23, 2016 @ 3:52am","epoch":1461383220,"text":"Very nice! It would be nice if the game would warn the player when the max level would be reached, I was a little bit confused when I couldn't collect the green things anymore on the first form. Plus, it would be nice to have some ingame direction as to where are the temples and how many there are.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Anyway, I had fun, thanks and congratulations! :)"},{"author_name":"MayankUnreal","author_uid":"90244","time":"Apr 26, 2016 @ 8:20pm","epoch":1461701700,"text":"Music is its forte.
