Move through a maze, change your shape and collect shift symbols.
Controls:
- WASD for movement - Clicking on shapes for shape-shifting
I exported to HTML5, so you can play in the Browser. Tested in Firefox and Chrome, should run on Windows/Mac/Linux. (There are also native versions, mainly so you can use the itch.io app. If you try to get one of the native versions to run, please comment what platform and if it worked. The native Android version has a virtual joypad on the right, but you need 16:9 aspect ratio to use it, or arrow keys on your android device).

Made in Haxe with HaxeFlixel. Graphics made with Gimp and Aseprite. Sounds made with a Music21 script, Bfxr. Music by autotracker-bu.
Thanks to Erik, Niko, Fabian, Tilman & Niels for playtesting.
Also wasn't able to finish the third level but did like the idea behind the game. One nitpick is that at times shifting shape was frustrating as you couldn't tell which way you needed to move in order to avoid intersecting with the geometry. Perhaps when putting mouse over a new shape, it could put a translucent version showing where you would appear, to remove that problem.
Entertaining game to play, music and art go well with the tetris theme, would have preferred movement to be made in 4 directions with steps that go with the size of a square
Neat game! Some more continuity between screens and keyboard only controls would have probably helped. Perhaps a few more easier levels :) But I really liked the design and the graphics!
It's a bit short, and in the second level I didnt need to get the arrow on the top right corner, also it's hard to guess whether you can change shape at a location because you have no idea how it transforms.
I also had a problem with my mouse cursor not being visible in the HTML5 window, so I clicked randomly to see if I clicked on the correct shape.
Little slow, could do with moving a touch faster I like the idea that you can only change shape if you get the pickup. I think it a game for 2 hands on the keyboards though rather than M&K, still I enjoyed it.
Looks great, plays great, levels were good and progressively harder. It wasn't obvious from the start that you could only change into each shape once, but that was a nice gameplay feature.
I like that you really need to think ehat shapes to use because they cannot be reused. In theory, if multiple shapes would go through a hole, you still have to think about the rest of the level as well.
The controls on Android felt a bit clumsy with the virtual analog stick.i guess grid-based movement might have worked better. Great game anyways!

I got really frustrated with the rounded corners on edges.

But overall, a nice little fun game.
Really enjoyed it.
