This is awesome! Beautiful design, and I love how much detail you put into the story.

Nice art, clever puzzles. Shifting forms is one of my favorite mechanics, and I don't see it enough in games (makes me think a bit of Symphony of the Night!).

The controls are adequate, but they could be sharper. The jump is a bit floaty.

The art is stunning! the movement was also really good. I do agree with some that it is a little hard. Overall great game.  :-)

Could use some checkpoints. Dying is very punishing! Nice ideas.

Developer

Great game, only thing I would change is to make it a bit easier, but I might just be bad at platformers.

Thanks! Hint: You have to break its shell with with the heavy form. Once all shells are gone you can pickup the final book

It is amazing artistically and sonically! in a couple of points the level design is weak, such as at one point where you must use the stone shape to go down some platforms and it takes a lot of reflexes to change before falling on some spikes.

Apart from that...

The final boss has a great design! And the music warns you very well that it is the last challenge!

It was loading for a long time, but the game was really fun. I liked the mechanics of changing your weight. The music was a nice touch.
