Shapey by JALgames

[raw]
made by JALgames for LD35 (JAM)
Sorry for the sound. It will hurt and you cannot disable it.

In this game, you control Shapey, a small geometric form, on his journey to the right. Shapey can transform into a triangle or a circle and pass through different doors, depending on his shape.

We understand that the level is quite short, but we were not really able to come up with a lot of interesting puzzles.

If you want to give feedback, we'd really appreciate to know what you liked and what not, because we consider expanding this version into a full game.

Thank you for the warning about the sound. It did indeed hurt me. But apart from that, this was really well made! Tight, responsive controls and a cool art style.

When you started out apologizing about the sound I feared the worst, but in my opinion it really added a lot of value to the game.
I also really liked the graphics, they fit well together with the sound.
If you were to do a post compo version of this, it would be nice if the controls were more smooth, and maybe slightly slower- Furthermore a game mechanic could be to give the various shapes different abilities, like circle can jump higher, square can break certain tiles, and so forth.
All in all I found this to be a good game! Good job!

Level design was actually pretty good. I enjoyed the childrens drawing illustration but if I didnt read your post about the sound then I would've said that part was annoying. The credits just looped the sound but the thing that was a bit nausiating with it's 'drunk' panning. Controls were good, the options made me giggle too. I also like the blurry spin animation for the transformation.

Haha! So fun game! I really liked the sounds, specially the jump ones (the squarey form was the fucking best), although the sheeps scared the shit out of me. The mechanics were interesting enough to keep you thinking, but never break the flow of the jumping. Also, the graphics are incredibly cute.

As a note of complain, the switch doors, it is not really clear wether they are closed or not.

Also loved the options for making sheep sound!

I love the graphics, and the sounds are pretty funny! :D
It would be nice if the switches didn't flip when you tried to walk away from them.
Good job, and good luck on the next version!
