Do-od: A fun little game with simple shape-shifting elements!
Do-od aproaches Shape-shifting by having the player change the environment around the character. As a team we felt that it would be more challenging to have the player respond to the character and not the other way around.
We are waiting for your feedback :)
CHANGELOG: * Fixed impossible enemy speed in Level 9 * Fixed malfunctioning enemy patrol trajectories in Levels 15, 23, 30, 36 * Fixed texture sizing for Web and Android
This is so cool!!! I like visuals and audio - clearly you put much time and effort into this - it's amazing. Now my children will play this all day long...
Wow guys, this is top notch, I'd to play this in work on my phone getting 3 stars on every level. Super polished as well. Looks great, sounds great and great fun to play. Great! My first 5* game today.
The idea is very original, the graphics are pretty cool and the whole thing is fluid and well-polished, nice job!
After playing for a while I have mixed feelings about the gameplay though. While moving around the floor and ceiling is pretty fun and satisfying in itself, I'm sitting at level 20 and... to be honest I have no idea what I'm doing. I may be playing it wrong, but I have a hard time predicting how do-od will react to my moves, and I feel like most of my wins are luck-based rather than skill-based.
Now, having a mostly luck based game can be a valid direction to take, but I can't help thinking the game would have been more satisfying if the controls and player behavior were tweaked to make them more predictable.
It was still fun to play anyway, and I would love to read about how you implemented the curve-bending thing. Nice work everyone!
It's a fun challenging game. Graphics are cute, and create with the music a happy and cute mood. The music is a bit too repetitive though, and it's hard to have a correct speed.
Excellent! Incredible amount of polish in every part of the game. Original and refreshing take on the theme that I've not seem elsewhere, and a cute and lighthearted approach that makes the game incredibly endearing. On top of that, the game is really fun to play! I love it!
I'm litterally a fan of that game. The doodling art is neat, the music (a bit repetitive) still good, the main idea as well, need it on my phone right now. Just when you have two line against each other is not always easy to correctly drag only one at a time.
Wonderfully polished game (on many levels!) with a great feeling and cuteness factor. Played it till level 14 but I might come back to it later! It would work really awesome on a handheld device I think. Oh, and it was fun to see the credits order change!
Wow really interesting game mechanic, I can't even begin to understand how one would make that possible. The art is really cute and so is the music and audio. The puzzles felt a little repetitive and it was easy to just force your character around with the walls until enemies appeared. But >30 levels?!? That's just some good hard work and good team collaboration!
Awesome game, it reminded me of cut the rope games in a way, great mood, good graphics, the audio is really good, the only thing bad is that the music is too repetitive to me, i ended up getting overwhelmed by the same sound again and again, great job nonethless!
I love this game which is really interesting by its concept and exploited physics. So cute. The prime idea is great and the realisation fully polished. It could be more pleasant on mobile device. One of my favorites for this LudumDare session. Thank you ++
Really simple and easy to play! This could be on touchscreens! Funny doodle graphics, cute ouch sound. Now add some nice backgrounds on it and you're golden!
OMG I loved it!!! Great music, fun gameplay, very relaxing and nice game. I would definitly play it before going to bed. Overall style reminds me ezjoy games.
Very lovely :) Pretty graphics, good sound design, very enjoyable :)

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
Awesome, I love the idea and the graphics are so cute. Sometimes is hard to know how the character will bounce over the curve but the gameplay is very smooth it's easy to retry.
Very nice on web browser, but I tried to use the apk and after download my phone couldn't install it (not a permission issue, it said there was a problem with the file)
I love the graphics and the audio of this game! And it was really really fun to play! I think it was a bit of a stretch for the theme, but I loved it anyway! Really fun game!
Really interesting take on the theme. There are suprising many levels for a game jam game. Some of them are quite tricky to get to three stars and occasionally I think I was just lucky with the bounces and timings. The gameplay, the graphics, the music.. the whole game feels polished. I am not quite sure if the star rating was based on time (or bounce count?) or the shapeshifts used, probably time. Also, sometimes grabbing the lines didn't seem to register or it dragged two lines at ones (well, understandable, since they were close to each other).
Very solid game, with a ton of levels. Found the path the character was going to take difficult to predict. Would have liked a real-time path-predicting so I can better plan my course of action. Excellent job!

Played till level 13
Nice one, theme is respected and game is well executed.
I liked little details like the credit page sorting in random order ! ^^

Graphics are cute, and create with the music a happy and cute mood.
The music is a bit too repetitive though, and it's hard to have a correct speed.
And damn, that last level was super hard ! :)
Good music, sounds, concept and the art.
Really good entry.
Good Job!
@mar3k: True, we didn't have enough time to thoroughly set the 3 star threshold for all levels.
@Wan: Thanks for the feedback. For the implementation, the repository is available at https://github.com/dapetcu21/omlette-du-fromage Look in RopeController.cs
@rodobodolfo: There's an Android apk available on itch.io. We're also considering polishing it further and putting it on Play Store.
Good job.
Would be an awesome mobile/tablet game!
I really enjoyed the game! Graphics and music are cute. Gameplay is... i dont know... its Awesome (and cute)!
Overall amazing game!

We are really glad that you enjoy our game.
@Freank we added the game with that tag, same name Do-od.
@AuthorX unfortunately, we got no idea why you have that issue.
Perfect for mobile!
The mechanic is unique, the visual and audio are completely well worked! Congratulations!
