Court Of Talis by noddingTortoise
Court of Talis is an arena based game that uses shapeshifting and type matching to defeat waves of enemies.
Your aim is to simply survive as long as you can, using your shape shifting to match the enemies weaknesses to defeat them.
Unfortunately I was rather limited on time this Ludumdare so the game is quite simple and probably a bit clunky (and most likely buggy).
Controls:
Move: W,A,S,D or Left/Right and Up/Down arrows
Attack: Spacebar,
Select Shape: Q
ShapeShift: E
Thanks for playing :-)

Since you have a limited about of shapes you could have added them on different keys. Pressing Q again and again becomes tedious.
And also making the game fast pace (and skill based) might be better.
I like that you included a tutorial :)
Good job!

@banana.hammers I thought about having the shapes assigned to different keys(namely keys 1,2,3) but ran out of time to try and test this, so I might look into this if I decide to do a post jam update. I also feel that the pacing needs improving, with a faster pace probably suiting the style a bit better than its current form.
@EpiFouloux If I decide to do a post jam update I will definitely try and optimise it a bit better, it really does need it :-D, and include a pause menu, which I wanted to include this version but ran out of time :-(
The concept is good, although the controls are a little tough to get use to initially. But good job! Keep up the good work.
