Shape Shifters by Autovelop

[raw]
made by Autovelop for LD35 (COMPO)
Shape Shifters is a game where you launch "shifters" in order to shift the weight of shapes. Levels are completed when a shape touches the surface. Certain levels have shapes that have buttons attached. Once there are no buttons left on the shape to push and the shape touches the surface, the level is completed.

Good game, I missed the restart button on the last level.

LOL!
respect for how you implemented the idea - that wobbling is really cool and looks realistic (in terms of physics) - graphics and audio are a matter of taste ;)
great job!

Loved the partial effects and the look of the level. I would have liked some ingame instructions, but really that is a small thing on what is a really good entry!

Thanks for playing! I don't know how I missed that restart on the last level, sorry about that. I will put in in-game instructions and add more levels as soon as possible.

I really like this, I loved the art, style, and mechanic. I had a lot of fun figuring out what I was doing on the first level, I thought you did a good job teaching me to play without any direct communication. I enjoyed the minimal audio.

Wow! Reaaaally liked your take on the theme. Shift the weight of shapes ;). Kind of resembles my game using rocks to shift the position of the castles. Kudos

I was disappointed when the game was over so quickly, so that's always a good sign! The physics were satisfyingly good and the art style fit well.

The music was a little repetitive.

The physics mechanism is quite interesting to watch.

Feels fun and even though this is the first review I'm wrinting this LD, I feel that it definitely is a different take on the theme than most of the games in this LD. Congrats!

Regarding the choice of graphics: First run I found it difficult to figure out why the bodies get stuck in mid air, until I managed to see that it's an object in the foreground that they're stuck on. My guess is that the edges of the shape are blending too much with the background image.
Anyways, congrats! :)

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
