A simple Time-Attack game about shooting yourself trough the air and destroy targets before reaching the goal.

This game lacks in a tutorial so I'll write a few things here.

You need to hold the shift key to stay shifted, once you realise you turn back.

while shape-shifted you can spin in the direction you want.

if you hold a direction and shape-shift you will spin that way immediately, this can help get fast shoots off.

Good luck, have fun!

The concept is great but the game is really hard to play and human-shaped movement is really buggy

on your gif it seems fluent, so maybe it just doesn't work on my computer

sad to hear :( it might be a frame rate issue, I found some hit-detection getting weird at lower frame rates :/

I really enjoyed this - maybe it ran ok over here. The controls are a little odd, but once you get used to the shifting mechanic you can pull off some really interesting and fun jumps! Good work.

Good fun but a bit too fiddly. Did you try having a third button for fire at any point? Very interesting mechanics anyway.

Yes I did have a third button for firing at first but decided to change it since you mainly used the fire action to "Jump" in shifted mode. maybe it was the wrong choice tough :/ not sure :)
