Left 4 Gabe 3 (Crypt of the GabenShifter) is a game where you can play Guitar Hero like the Cryptkeeper.

Made for the Ludum Dare 35 - theme: ShapeShift

In this game, you're experimenting over a poor gamedev.

You will have to turn him into a legit Gabe clone.

Careful though, you may end up with some sleazy slug!

You have to purify some mutagen to create the Gabe clone.

To do so, press arrows on your keyboard in time with mutagen lumps that scroll alongside 4 tubes connected to your guinea piggy.

Go shape your Gabe!

Hi Alphius, you're right, we made a mistake indeed. Thanks for your comment!

Actually, we don't have a proper first playable yet - but we will post it tomorrow if everything's on the right tracks.

I love the looks of this game. Nice going on "Crypt of the GabenShifter" too. Awesome :D

However, I couldn't play. Could you create a WebGL export with Unity? I'd also recommend hosting on itch.io.

Did you just put the web file inside a .rar archive for download ?
The menu start but I couldn't enter the game.

Hi, I'm from VapeurTeam /o/
We struggled a bit to upload the game somewhere proper, but now when you click the Web link, you get to our itch.io page where you can play the game.
Otherwise, you can always download the executable.

Have fun~

was funny to see the corpse change, but was sad about the fact that music doesn't is changed by the wrong/correct answer :(

Great graphics, cool music that is well synced with the gameplay. Nice replayability too! :D

80% discount yeah /o/ it's a bit hard to look out at 4 directions at the same time, but it was fun !

very nice and funny idea. The art good too but its a bit hard if you play as you should to do but... you can push all keys at same time so I probably got the max score hehehe and a handsome and powerfull gabe ;)

Lots of polish and nice little touches to add to the humour, like the background items from TF2, Portal, CS etc. and great quality soundtrack. Challenging, in a good way, with tracking incoming orbs from multiple directions, need to keep track and react quickly. Good job!

HAHAHAHHAHAHAHA. It is a nice game, the problem is that gameplay is a harder than expected because the balls are too separated, and it is hard to see all in the correct order. Something more like DDR (with the buttons at top but together) or Guitar Hero should be better.

That was great! Loved the artwork and it was fun watching gabe transform. Super frantic gameplay. And the music matched up really well. All around every aspect was super polished. Great game!

I liked the idea of the changing how gabe did based on how well you were doing, but I thought there were too many incoming pellets at a time.
nihilaleph30 Apr 2016, 01:27
That was funny! Kkkk artwork and audio was great! Although it felt a bit unresponsive, sometimes i pressed the button but the mutagen would pass not purified (or it seemed like so). Also some more feedback (maybe audio?) if you're doing it right or wrong..

Anyway greats work!

The game thumbnail absolutely had my attention. After playing the game, I wasn't disappointed: This is a really really funny game! Just the whole concept itself is just so silly; I love it!

The gameplay definitely takes a bit of getting used to first; it's not easy to keep your eye on all 4 of the tubes starting out!

The music was nice and, personally, I'm a sucker for rhythm games, so I quite enjoyed the level provided! I feel like it got too complicated too quickly though. You need to make sure that you give the player enough time to practise the game mechanics so they can be sure they know what they're doing! When the difficulty began to ramp up I was still in that stage where I was thinking "I'm pushing the buttons... am I doing this right?"

But anyway, yeah, really good presenation overall on the game! Nice graphics, audio, and gameplay! Very fun! Going to rate this highly! Well done!

Also, my highscore was 150! Not sure how good that is though! :P

I can't hold it in when the controller appeared over his crotch XD
Very nice haha
I think the pipes could become more 3D-like by curving the rings like )))))), that way it would blend in better with the rest of the game screen
