Final time, 2:02.
I experimented some lags with Firefox, everything was fine with Chromium.
Good game !

The game was difficult but had a great theme. Graphics were also amazing

Liked the idea. I found the enemies very difficult to avoid at times.

In the first level I thought that the game was a classic pixel art 2D platform, but the game surprise with every level. Great game!!
But I think that the music on the first level was kinda weird, and the difficult grows very quickly on the next levels.

Nice pixel art! But what is the difference between stages other than graphics?

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

Seriously this is my favorite game of the compo. The atmosphere and feel of this game brings me back to the days of bubble bobble and dig dug and the other NES/Arcade cross over classics. It uses the shape shift in a unique way which is both awesome in it's own right but also allows for all the different characters which were awesome. Music is great. And the levels actually get harder is a very gradual but appropriate way. Great job. 5/5 in every category.

What was that creepy thing at the beginning?
Anyways, love this game, but I hate the slide physics.

Outstanding work.
Everything gets together to make one of the best experience of this LD : graphics, music, gameplay.
The use of the theme is immersive and very clever.

I dont manage to go threw the one eye pyramid level, but its real fun with nice graphs !!!

Nice game!
I didn't see the timer and score at first, so I was quite surprised that the game stopped. A restart button would be nice. :) I think the game is hard and fun enough without the timer. After some tries I got a glimpse of the triangular alien, but then my time was up. ;) Cute graphics and music!

beautiful game. Difficulty curve is really not on point

Lovely game, loved the audio, but level 3 seemed a tad impossible. Good job

Prettygood good. Even though I hate flash games for their cheapness, I played this one for a long long time :-)
