In losing your form you find your truest self. Your imagination is the only limit to your being. You are at once a gargantuan beast, a sly scoundrel, an explorer of this world and others. You are a shapeshifter... of sorts.
Unbecoming - A short, silly narrative.

Wow. I've rated, like, 30+ games now and yours is the only that I've given a perfect 5/5 score to. I loved this, the narrative was amazing and the message was really great. The graphics were awesome and I really liked all the neat abilities of each role. Damn this was a good game! I'm glad you got the mac version up and running, because this is too good. I also love seeing Mac LÖVE developers on here making great stuff. Wow.
I really enjoyed that. I was so much fun. Everything felt so satisfying, and I was actually sad when I had finished because the game was over. The message was cool, and inspiring. Very nice work!
This was a very fun entry! I love how it starts off feeling as though it's a whole different world, and then you realize it was the child's imagination the whole time. Very charming.
The gameplay was very engaging, I liked how each form had a very specific use and I was encouraged to swap between them often. I think a bit of challenge would have been nice, I don't think it was possible to die or have to restart. But it was still awesome nonetheless.
I loved the feeling of this game, and the way your graphics presented the story without copious amounts of text to read. That said, I felt the graphics were still lacking a bit. Furthermore, I feel the particle effects were a bit TOO much. There were times where my entire screen was filled with nothing but particle effects.
Audio was pleasant. It did meld together into one white noise effect when a lot was going on. I loved the voice-over lines for the businessman attacks.
Mindfuck! So awesome entry, there is great gameplay with different mechanics, it's super cool for me! Music and art with gameplay gives solid game in summary. I rated just a few games but this is best so far. Incredible work bro! :D
Absolutely amazing game dude! The story is silly but super deep at the same time. It at times makes you want to smile and chuckle, and at times it makes you a little misty eyed. The art and music in this game are good also but the story makes this game a true treasure. The first game that I believe deserves a perfect score :)
I felt like a child, with all imagination and that curiosity to discover the world and even why not other worlds? As said, your imagination is the unique limit for what you'd like to be.
This game is an impressive work of idealistic art. I loved the end, the meaning behind the final moment was the best.
This game actually reached to my heart. When I was a child, I used to play with my imagination continuously. I miss that time. And I guess one of the reasons that I play videogames now is because I miss that time, the old fantastic worlds that me and my friends used to visit everyday. I suppose we all have done that, but many people do not remember as well. Maybe one day I'll try to play that way again :D. Anyway, congratulations for one of the best takes on this theme.

Hi, nice game ! We're realizing a video with several games of the Ludum Dare #35. Can you add your game on indiexpo.net ? (it's free) So we can include also your game in the video ;) p.s. write #LDJAM in the game's description
Great humor and mood to this entry. A child's make-believe play fantasy, no real danger, but it was fun to explore. I got as far as the mainframe, at which point I couldn't figure out a way to enter a password. So not sure what I wasn't doing right. But it was pretty fun up until that point, although the controls for the spaceman were a bit limited.
It captures childhood in a way that few games have for me. It's silly and funny, but also honestly moving. It's incredibly creative and surprising. It feels like a huge adventure and also just an afternoon playing outside. I can't say enough good things about this. Thank you for making it!!!
salute the torrential imagination and the pure heart of childhood!.. the final climax's continued(so many legs broken!!) really leaves me with a deep impression and shock me alot. and the end scene also give me infinite daydream from time and space,meaningful + endless aftertaste!
This was delightful. Literally, I was delighted many times whilst playing. I found myself giggling as I discovered each new part of the experience. The sound effects were perfect too, really fit with the childlike gleeful mood of the game. Overall, I really enjoyed playing. I'd change nothing. Just lovely.
