This game is hard! A really cool idea, though. I did run into a bug where if I attacked a hunter while pretty much on top of him neither of us could damage each other from there on out, so that took a bit of getting used to. Overall nice look to this game, well done.
I'm thinking about review all the bugs and make a better, full version.

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
The art is really awesome. Gameplay is rough, jumping doesn't seem to always work well, and attacking I had to be in a very specific spot to pull it off. Good ideas though, good work
The hitboxes on the hunters seemed bugged. I can only hit them when I'm a bit away from them. Also, the jumping was bugged. Not sure what the problem was, but I couldn't jump a lot of the time unless I changed to human and then changed back.
And on top of all those, the shapeshifting seemed a bit bugged. Sometimes it would take way longer than others. So it's a game with only real features, and all three of those parts are bugged. Ouch. :\
But there's one thing I liked: the way the hunters "rotate" when they turn around. It's nice how that looks good and unique, conveys what's happening, AND gives you time to react to their field-of-view turning around.
I wanted to like this but it wouldn't play well on my computer, I have no idea why. It seemed like it stretched the game to fill my screen, which resulted in some weird graphical distortion. I could still kindof play it, but movement and attack felt off, and I couldn't seem to hit anyone, nor they me. Not sure if it was due to the glitches or what.
