Euclidean Shift
This game is from the old Ludum Dare platform. You can try viewing the original page on Web Archive

I decided to go overly literal with the theme... making a shape that shifts. Basically a puzzle-platformer where you use the properties of the different shapes to navigate each level. 10 levels in all.
First time doing Ludum Dare... good to actually finish a game :)
Since it's not well explained in game, for the curious, the properties of each shape (In addition to being that shape):
Circle - Bouncy (And Rolls well, 'cause it's a circle)
Hexagon - Good Expansion (Jumping) Power
Square - Low Friction and different scrunching/expanding
Triangle - High Friction, Sharp Corners
All corners of shapes can do damage, but the sharper the better.
Update v1.1:
- Fixed Left/Right keyswap
- Fixed Windows Exe upload
- Added second keybindings for shifting for people not on QWERTY
And if you're having trouble in Stage 4 (The one in the last screenshot) see my comment below (Apr 19, 2016 @ 10:56pm).
