You play a werewolf that is imprisoned in a cave since ancient times and finally comes free. The werewolf can change between a wolf and a human form depeding on whether he is exposed to moon light or not. Try to escape the cave by solving different puzzles.
Controls
A/D: Walk left/right Space: Jump W: Interact/Climb up S: Climb down M: Go to main menu F: Toggle fullscreen(only for Web version)
The downloadable version can also be played with an Xbox 360 controller:
Left Stick: Walk left/right, Climb up/down A: Jump X: Interact Start: Go to main menu
If you have problems with spacebar scrolling the screen try to use fullscreen (press 'F') or download the Jar-File
You don't seem to be capturing mouse/web input or cancelling the key events making the space bar scroll the page and jump in game... A little difficult to play like this but I really liked the direction you went with it. And great music!
I liked the look, music and idea behind this game, but the page kept scrolling when I jump which made it much too difficult to play after a point. I'll check back later to see if it has been fixed.
@peterkirk I'm working on it, but it seems to be a bug with the engine I'm using. Try playing the game in fullscreen mode (press 'F') or downloading the Jar-File.
This is a great idea! Cool twist on the platforming mechanic. However, the amount of sliding that the character does, particularly in werewolf state, makes everything feel kinda floaty and makes it difficult to position yourself in the one-block moonbeams.

It took me so long to realize the beams were moonlight, not water. Even after the mirror. It did seem odd, I didn't *think* werewolves were traditionally a water-themed monster, and water doesn't usually reflect... but for some reason, I didn't question my initial assumption.
Good job, though! It does get a bit frustrating when you keep falling. It can be hard to judge jumps due to the momentum changes when you transform.
The mechanics ended up working better than I originally expected. The platform mechanics themselves were kind of clunky, but forgiving enough to not be a big issue, but the puzzle aspects with mirrors and such was interesting.
Holy crap this is awesome. 5/5 all the way. The werewolf transformation is quite cool. Hitboxes were a bit large, but past that everything ran smoothly.
Please consider adding arrow key functionality to you games in the future. Where I live, keyboards have an AZERTY layout, instead of QWERTY, so our A/Q and Z/W are switched around, making it very hard to play your game without remapable keys. Simply supporting arrow key input fixes this problem for any type of keyboard. The game is nice, so it's a real bummer about those controls.
