Great game, I found a bug, When I go left, one of the sprite animation has a vertical line to the left of the character. Overall, Great game, Glad you could participated! ;)

Fun game with a cool concept and fun vibe. Something about the design of the player character's eyes had me giggling internally. I liked that each form had a purpose, even the human form having the faster recharge capability. Would have been cool to see a bit more implementation of how you can use the abilities in conjunction with each other. The music was fun, too.  Good work!

thank you for playing also the human is the only one who can solve puzzles but i made one puzzle ,maybe you find the eyes fun cuz the music in the menu and the demonic deal was making you think it's a horror game just to find that sleepy eye and the funny look of the character

I thoroughly enjoyed playing your game. I can tell an insane amount of time and effort was put into making this because there is quite a lot of good content -- from level design to coding, to the artwork and music -- especially for less than 2 weeks of work. The only glitches I faced were due to some hitboxes being too large but that's a pretty simple fix. This game has many key features that a roguelike requires and is very satisfying to win. All in all, congrats on this great entry.

thank you for your great comment it really made my day also the plan was a little bigger than that but i couldn't complete it but when i make a full game it will feature the other 2 games i made in 1bit game jam it will be a metrovina mostly cus the deadlock is a maze

Pretty good game! I love transforming to get past certain areas, in the last section I love how you can get through it either by using the eye or the ghost. Honestly great stuff. The arts pretty great too. Although the swapdemons completely throw me off due to the fact they INSTANTLY teleport you rather than having some sort of transition, which is very disorientating. I also think the hitboxes might be a bit clunky. However, all around the game is pretty good. My favorite transformation is the eye, personally.

Developer

thank you for playing i will actually make a full game in the far future that will be a rogue like that feature the old 2 game of the same jam and i will fix the swapdemon and i'm happy that you find the eye good i personally prefer the ghost

Hi there! I had a few plays and I’ve liked what I’ve seen so far great work. I noticed a few game-breaking bugs that will hopefully be quick fixes for a lot of benefit. I’ve attached screenshots when I got stuck in an unexpected in-game state and my input seemed to get ignored while the game continued running. Sometimes after transforming from 3 to 2, and once from dying. I’ll give it another try soon 👍

Developer

i update it and i think i fixed the bug

Great work, man. The transformations are all fun, and the way to play as well, but what I liked most about the game is the drawing at the beginning and the music
