This is great! I would have loved to play a few more levels. Sounds aren't that good, but other than that, it's pleasant to play. New stuff is introduced fairly quick. In a longer game, this could be drawn out way more. But for the jam it's fine.

Submitted

Good ideas! at first, i thought it was another "only turn in one direction" game. But the different forms and direction-changers made it quite interesting in the end. I wonder what other shapes and powerups could be implemented.

Good Game!

Submitted

woo hoo I beat it. I liked how the different shapes worked together differently. 

I know it's only a game jam game, but I definitely see some Potench here and would be interested to see how this could be used in other levels and such

Submitted

great job man, really showed off the concept well

Submitted

Really loving how it starts with one basic "Oh yeah, I totally get this" mechanic and then it layers on it in a way where you're like "Yes! That's the natural progression of this!" The difficulty spiked a little fast some times, like I needed more of a learning ramp, but the quick retry made that a non-issue eventually. Great entry!

Submitted

I got really earraped when i started this game and the gameplay was kinda tricky in small hallways but really cool puzzle game

Haha, going to learn some sound design by next year because we were definitely inexperienced in that department.

Submitted

Really like this one! I wish there were more levels. The concept is simple but great!

Submitted

I thought it was going to be easy - but having you change shapes really throws you off sometimes! Added a good extra challenge. And I completed it! Not without banging into the wall a few times on my way :D

The sound effects are a bit jarring - especially the wall bash one. Apart from that, cool idea - just needs some more levels!

Submitted

That was a lot of fun. Reminded me of Kuru Kuru Kururin for the GBA.
 I would recommend removing the circle as it felt like it ruined the challenge of the game.
 Or at least only have the circle for easier challenges.

There were a few things I found annoying, mainly the sounds and the gameplay sometimes being more frustrating than challenging. However! There was something that made me stick with the game until the end, which is a good sign. The visuals are solid and it was always satisfying to complete the different parts of the game. Overall you did a good job. Keep it up!

Good stuff here! The difficultly ramp is very high, but I like to view gamejam games as more proof of concept, so this works very well.

Only one major hiccup area for me, the 2nd triangle corridor, if I hadn't set up the angle right was a tad unforgiving, but having readily available  check points helped this be such a big deal.

If you continue working on this project, definitely give new mechanics time to breath and player to get familiar with them. Some interesting level design and touch support and I could see that doing great on mobile

I really liked the pacing of this game. It taught me how to play very effectively. The different shapes added an interesting layer to gameplay!

Design 4/5 : the sound effects were loud as hell  ^^ but the game looks really nice. I wish you made a better indication of your next direction.

Theme 5/5 : good fit into the theme.

Originality  5/5 : i've honestly never played smth like this, good idea!

I damn suck at this game ^^ but I like it as it is. Best I've seen so far. Maybe you could add a death count somewere? I'll break the record ever time ! 

Good job!

Death count is a good idea! Im sure at this point id personally have hundreds haha. I agree with the sounds. Should test that some more next time. Thanks for the review :)

Submitted

The visuals are fine, but the sound effects are too loud. The game quickly lost my interest.

Thanks for the honesty! Will try to balance the sounds next time.

Submitted

Wow, this is fun and really interesting. I love that there are multiple shapes as well which really changes things up! I also really like how it seems to all be on one big sprawling level with checkpoints! Wow, it's really difficult as well lol XD Good job!

Submitted

That was probably one of the best games I've played today! :D awesome concept and really fun, well done! :)

Short but sweet! Good execution on the premise (though I've seen it done before, you put a new twist by introducing new shapes and angles of rotation) as well as fitting with the theme quite nicely!

Visuals and SFX are on point too!

Really enjoyed this one :D

Best game I've been playing so far! :-D

I like the good mix between thinking and reflexes!

Like the idea and the execution was good, Fit the theme nicely

Really good idea but it was really short. I'm left wanting more, it's a great fit for the prompt.

Hey Jiggly! The version you played was actually a prototype. Now we have more levels and better refinement!
