Controls:
WASD (or Arrows) to move
Q/E (or Control / Num 0) to change form
Mouse to Aim
Left Click (or Space) to shoot
Goal:
Absorb smaller enemies of the same shape/colour as you to grow. Shift into a new form to absorb your enemies. Shoot enemies (at some expense to your size) to lower their size. Don't shoot enemies who are the same colour as you.
There's no end, so just see how big you can get.
The game does implement some basic AI: enemies will change their form to absorb you if they think they can, or run away if they notice you and you're larger than them.
Disclosure: Life got in the way so I only had about 6 hours to pump a game out. The game didn't get to a point where it got very polished. I'm not expecting the ratings to be that high but that's okay, I had fun making it and that's the point, right? :)
