So this is what I ended up creating.

A game where you drive to ramp and use the shapeshift to fly/glide as far as you can.

WASD or Arrow keys to steer the car and Mouse+Forward when flying.

Space > Shapeshift.

Left Ctrl > Break.

R > Restart.

Esc > close game.

*Or modify the keys in Unity Lancher*

#web #windows #linux #osx

I have not tested theLinux version so I can't guarantee it works.

Acording those who have tested it it works on Mint but not on Ubuntu.

20.04.2016 Added WEB build and & OSX builds of the game.

Also added a updated version whit online highscores if anyone want to try it.

My best is: 150m

Genres: action

Thanks for letting us play your game! - huntinator7 stream

Good Game :D

ZpeedTubeauthor18 Apr 2016, 07:36

Thanx you made my game :D

Ubuntu 15.10 user here. First I had to "sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-0:i386", then "sudo apt-get install lib32stdc++6". Together with chmod +x on the executable it started. However when I pressed play it crashed with the notification "Aborted (core dumped)". I guess the linux version still needs some work :s

ZpeedTubeauthor18 Apr 2016, 08:03

Oh... =/
Well thnx for letting me know!! :)

A bit too simple for my tastes. And the physics is a little weird. ;)

Souperstrawer18 Apr 2016, 08:44

Transformation animation looks cool. Other than that, it didn't really feel like I had much control over the distance. I wish it had more content to it.

luquio18 Apr 2016, 09:11

Fun physics!

ZpeedTubeauthor18 Apr 2016, 09:19

Thnx for the feedback! :)

Nice game, a bit simple but making 3D games in 48 hours does that :P

PS:
Linux version worked for me on Mint without any extra work. But yeah, Unity's Linux Exporter isn't that great. But either way, thanks for adding a Linux build!

ZpeedTubeauthor19 Apr 2016, 11:38

Yeah, had bigger plans but 48 hours goes fast :P
No problem, glad it worked for you! :)

Fun idea, easy to run over and over to get just get a little bit further. Would be cool when flying to be able to boost the time in the are somehow, maybe by hitting gates or similar, to get even further and have a goal while in air!

zugende20 Apr 2016, 20:31

Dude, the graphics are shitty, but the idea is awesome! I played it for about 10min and coulnt stop. Keep on working on that! I can imagine playing this on my phone on my way to work.

ZpeedTubeauthor20 Apr 2016, 20:47

Thanx, I will defenetly continue development on this!
Yeah had to spend so mutch time on game mechanics so I had no time for graphics.
And thnx for the suggestions!

Interesting little game.

zenmumbler20 Apr 2016, 22:18

Got to 184m by backing up to the beginning of the area and speeding up as much as possible. Also gained 98kmh falling off the track :)
Very simple but hopefully a good exercise.

ZpeedTubeauthor21 Apr 2016, 05:26

You figured out the kind of cheaty way, but not totally cheating :P :D

gurkenlabs21 Apr 2016, 10:01

Really fun minigame :)

josefnpat21 Apr 2016, 10:21

I played this game a few times - very nice! I kept trying to break things, haha!

ZpeedTubeauthor21 Apr 2016, 10:45

Thnx! Haha! :D

Fun physics game, though if you go off course, it's pretty hard to get back on track lol.

alsantour27 Apr 2016, 20:13

cool concept and take on shape shift theme, but too little "gameplay"/levels ... if it had more ramps/obstacles or different ramps that make the user need to change shape...

ZpeedTubeauthor27 Apr 2016, 20:33

Yeah the orignal idea was very diffrent from what I had time to accomplish... But in my new updates I have added a little more content! :)

Krammetje27 Apr 2016, 20:35

I think this game could be fun, but there's just to little gameplay in my opinion (which is understandable for a jam).

homeworld27 Apr 2016, 20:43

Well done, i really like the transformer idea, especially in some sort of destruction derby scenario! I'm sure something like an obstacle course would work too, though!

KitsuneQuestDev27 Apr 2016, 20:51

Nice little idea, I enjoyed it :)

rjhelms27 Apr 2016, 23:28

Good fun. I was able to get to 140m, which I think is pretty decent if your best is 150.

TeamScripta28 Apr 2016, 00:44

That was fun! I love the feeling of flying!

whilefun28 Apr 2016, 01:12

This is really fun! I got 103m :D I found the camera movement a bit rigid, perhaps some Lerping would help soften it a bit. Nice work!

rnlf30 Apr 2016, 21:38

Hey, another carplane with the plane part not having an engine, sounds familiar :D

We should invent a secret handshake or something!

ZpeedTubeauthor30 Apr 2016, 21:50

Yeah, haha, saw your game eariler and was like "WOW, you have a very simular idea to me!" :D

ciaodavinci1 May 2016, 01:23

wow I actually had a lot of fun with this game. I was trying to go max speed with the car and then I hit one of those blue cubes and was sent into a mad roll - was great.

Frozen Fractal1 May 2016, 09:46

Mouse control seems to be inverted? I kept randomly dying even though I was car-shaped well before I hit the ground, and I didn't hit it very hard.

ZpeedTubeauthor1 May 2016, 11:02

Haha, greate @ciaodavinci! Im happy you like it! :D
@Frozen Fractal, I guess it depens on how you want it to be controlled. I guess I should add a option to not invert it in future update! :)
