In this game you play as a protean organism, meaning (in this sense) that you can take multiple forms. To take the form of something else you must first find a coin and collect it, this will give you a different form. Use your different forms to find your way through the levels to the portals. The rabbit can not touch the rabbit poison (white tub looking thing) but can crawl under spikes. The cardinal can fly places. The human is just kind of there to be a starting point.

When shape shifting be careful. The rabbit's hit box is wider than a human or cardinal's, so stand back from rabbit poison or spikes to the right side of the character when shifting to the rabbit.

Controls:
A, left arrow: move left
D, right arrow: move right
W, S, up arrow, down arrow: shift between different unlocked organisms
Space: jump
Escape: quit

Listen closely and you might just hear the bird tweet.
