I like how the bullets fromm the enemies bouce off your shield and you need to tke the right angle to kil them. Right now lacks some challenge but I can see some interesting puzzles coming from this.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>One thing that you should fix in a possible postcompo version is the audio. The sfx volume is way too high compared to the music and it was like a jumpscare the first time I jumped :D But I think you have something here that should be developed further."},{"author_name":"RealityCheck","author_uid":"44504","time":"Apr 19, 2016 @ 11:14am","epoch":1461064140,"text":"There is a nice foundation here on which to build a game. It's unfortunate that there's not enough content yet. I would love to see where you could take this with more time. The graphics are nice, the platforming mechanics are smooth and works well. I didn't NEED to use any shapeshifting though... I could just run straight past the enemies though. Still a good start that I'd suggest you continue developing."},{"author_name":"Griz","author_uid":"14379","time":"Apr 19, 2016 @ 12:14pm","epoch":1461067740,"text":"Just fixed the input lag in the web version. Looks like the black sprites bug in the webgl build can be avoided by just disabling mipmaps.

Especially the graphics, I love this dark detailed pixel art and the particle smoke-ish body, and I think the way you handled the light plays a huge part in this impression.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>The gameplay looks promissing, too bad the game was so short.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Some problems happen when you pass the turrets : the bullets bounce on the shield in strange angles, and if you go far enough the turrets shoot themselves.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>The physics where very well done. Maybe the jump height is a little low if you want to do some more complex platform movements.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Cool audio, not so good balance thought. Had to listen to the music with high volume, then reduce it to play with the sound effects.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>It's really a shame there's so few content.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Anyway, really good job, I would love to play a complete version.
