You must use two shapes to get to the finish.

A&D move left and right, Space shapeshifts into the other shape and W&S to change cubes size.

You have to enable music in the options if you want to.

If you have any problems with the game, let me know.

- Added support for Linux.

Genres: puzzle

The game is nice, however it's quite easy. Make yourself tall and spam spacebar. I think it would be better if you could only press space when on a platform.

I greatly admire you for making something 3d. However, I wish the shapeshifting controls were less like a kind of jump.

Pretty easy, like first comment said, spam space bar to win, no sound, no sfx, no textures, no art..

You can enable music in the options menu and to get a bigger score you have to get on top of as many platforms as you can.

can you upload your game somewhere else? Kongregate asks for flash - I have it on Google Chrome but it does not support WebGL. Firefox (which I have too) has WebGL but no flash since Adobe's flash player for Linux is a "bit" outdated.

Decent attempt. It's pretty easy to exploit the mechanic and just jump continuously to get through the level. Other than that, nice work!

If your browser doesn't support webgl you can download the windows version, if anyone needs another os, I will upload it, but I have no way of testing it.

not much to this game and it's mechanics are easy to exploit. The mechanic does feel like a broken jump

At first I didn't understand the concept, but once I found out you can shapeshift even in midair the game got very fun. It's rather easy but I like how gravity prevents you from just teleporting to the top instantly. I could see a puzzle game made out of this!

Innovative idea!

I like the innovation aspect of this, though i'd tweak up the ball speed a little bit, put in some visual fx on the shapeshifting part. Keep it up :)

If I were using Unity I would package up and upload all Windows/Mac/Linux versions and would add "(untested)" near those who I can't test.

Or just upload Linux version for me :P

Added Linux support.

Going 3D is quite the challenge! You made a nice little demo here with a potential game mechanic.

felt like i was missing something until i started furiously tapping space and then it became a bit weird to play, like Flappy bird meets Thomas was alone. personally i would preferred more of a puzzle element around the shapeshifting and the physics but i get that the time element of LD doesn't make developing a number of puzzle levels easy

Cool theme implementation. Like the plain art presentation.
Keep up the good work.
