Nice game! I got stuck the first time on the diving level with some weird glitch making me fly at the same level. After that I restarted and it was fine. I got to the level with the stacked boxes and couldn't get past.
seitnerkauthor18 Apr 2016, 16:45
yeah also found that glitch but it was too late :D
for the level with the stacked boxes, try to find an other way to pass them - down through

Great graphics and animations! First: I'm disappointed you can't kick over the trash bin ;)! I really like the atmosphere, the ambient noises, birds and such. Later on in the game I noticed some little bugs and couldn't get past the huge box wall. I don't like that you have to start over from the beginning if you die that far into the level. Doesn't feel like it would be that kind of game.

I got stuck for a long while at the tall box tower. The cat can't jump high enough to make the 4 tile jump (though she jumps high enough that it ~seems~ like she can, she just baaarely misses it) and there's no way to do it from the step right above. The dog can't push 2 boxes so it can seem that there's no way to pass here.

I did try jumping from the highest point I can get the dog to on that side, but I didn't get it quite right so I believed it didn't work. Eventually, after spending a long time with the tower, I tried the dive again and got it right. It's a good puzzle, just there was some feedback that didn't happen there which steered me away from the correct solution when I found it.

That said, I absolutely adore this. I did throw the cat in the water first, with a suspicion as to what would happen ;)

Your overall presentation is very good. I've enjoyed using the abilities and your graphics are so adorable. Everything about it feels so satisfying and made me smile.

A very good entry, just excellent work! One of my favorites :) High marks across the board.

The animations have so much personality! Great! Consistent, well paced and well executed.

I liked it but it would have been great if there was some kind of checkpoint so that players wouldn't have to start from the beginning.

Great game! The controls were super easy and I was able to figure out what to do on my first run of the game! I love it! Excellent job!!!

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

cool one with nice graphism and efficient mechanics, very interesting

Fun game! Never though of such an idea about shapeshifting, well done! I just wish dying would not get us back to the very start. Maybe there could be some checkpoints once we solve each puzzle? Also the birds' flying sound is a little too much, compared to other sounds. Overall really nice entry!
