Really cool concept and fun to play but the controls are hard to remember as they are spread across the keyboard.

It's also hard to remember which key shapes into which animal.

Really nice music, visuals and a good concept.

Good idea and fun, but the controls are, wonky to say the least ...

The idea behind the controls was to spell S-H-A-P-E. The animals in the game have names that also spells S-H-A-P-E. S = spider; H = human; A = alligator; P = penguin; E = elephant.

A bit hard to be honest, but still great !

Nice idea, but the game bugged in one part, It just didn't show the key I needed to press, so I died haha

Hi, nice game ! We're realizing a video with several games of the Ludum Dare #35.
Can you add your game on indiexpo.net ? (it's free)
So we can include also your game in the video ;)
p.s. write #LDJAM in the game's description

The controls were hard to remember but I think that made it more fun :) Great job, awesome visuals too!

Really cool game, my only gripe was that the controls were a bit awkward albeit theme appropriate.

Controls are super confusing. I like the art style though!

cool game, but i wish the controls where in a row... s,h,a,p,e, shift while its clever as its the game theme and double as clever because of what you transform into... but as a control scheme is so hard and takes much away form the rest of the game!

Nice idea for the theme. But given how tricky the controls are, the moment button prompts stopped appearing, the game was over for me.
If you can at least make controls a little more recognizable, or just have all the prompts at all times, the game would improve so much!
