You are a shapeshifting agent sent to your first mission, where you have to find, and destroy the laboratory AI computer core to disable the automated defenses.
Unluckily the game is not finished, but it still has the basic gameplay features implemented.
Controls: WSAD - movement Left mouse button - Morph hand to shield Right mouse button - Morhp hand to thumbs-up ESC - quit
This is really a cool concept. I would love to see it continued into a full game. And I got the weird sprite bug too, which I'll need to look into tomorrow.
Did thumbs up do anything, or did you just run out of time before implementing it? Nice proof of concept with stylish graphics, would be interesting to see it expanded further
The concept is interesting. I like how the bullets fromm the enemies bouce off your shield and you need to tke the right angle to kil them. Right now lacks some challenge but I can see some interesting puzzles coming from this.
One thing that you should fix in a possible postcompo version is the audio. The sfx volume is way too high compared to the music and it was like a jumpscare the first time I jumped :D But I think you have something here that should be developed further.
There is a nice foundation here on which to build a game. It's unfortunate that there's not enough content yet. I would love to see where you could take this with more time. The graphics are nice, the platforming mechanics are smooth and works well. I didn't NEED to use any shapeshifting though... I could just run straight past the enemies though. Still a good start that I'd suggest you continue developing.
Just fixed the input lag in the web version. Looks like the black sprites bug in the webgl build can be avoided by just disabling mipmaps. Thanks to that i could re-enable Occlusion culling and lower quality settings, what removed the wonky input.
And I really mean it ! Especially the graphics, I love this dark detailed pixel art and the particle smoke-ish body, and I think the way you handled the light plays a huge part in this impression.
The gameplay looks promissing, too bad the game was so short.
Some problems happen when you pass the turrets : the bullets bounce on the shield in strange angles, and if you go far enough the turrets shoot themselves.
The physics where very well done. Maybe the jump height is a little low if you want to do some more complex platform movements.
Cool audio, not so good balance thought. Had to listen to the music with high volume, then reduce it to play with the sound effects.
It's really a shame there's so few content.
Anyway, really good job, I would love to play a complete version. Good luck !
Thumbs up drone! *drone shoots me* Cool concept, unfortunately very few interesting interactions. Next time I would concentrate more on that and less on the art (art was cool though)
I love the concept and the art. I like the incorporation of the theme too. WANT MORE GAMMMMEEEE. You should really make this into a full-fledged thing!
Liked the art. Liked the music. The jump sound's level was way to high and quite jarring for headphone users. Wish there was more here. Was the thumbs-up supposed to do anything? Why did turrets not rotate to follow the player? Well done!

Ran out of time. It was supposed to be shown on the level completed animation. Now it's just an easter egg.
*Thumbs up*
