Pop/Swap by Paulgami
Shapeshifting, single-player co-op, 2D puzzle-platformer.
You play as Pink and Blue, two characters who must both reach the exit in each level. (Really killing it with the writing here.)
At any one time, one character is human, and the other is a bubble. Use the Shift key to toggle their forms and try to get both to the doorway.
Arrow keys: Move
Spacebar: Jump
Shift key / 'S' key: Shapeshift
Escape key: Quit
Source repo and downloads are here: https://bitbucket.org/CardTrick/pop-swap
Edit: The glow/AO effect was hosed on Linux and OSX, that should be fixed now.
Edit again: This is now up on itch.io, with slightly improved visuals and more levels: https://chillpenguin.itch.io/popswap
Please don't judge that version though - for the competition, just download the ones underneath.

What the game needs now are more objects to interact with in order to create more intricate levels.
Totally portal like !
Nice music by the way !
Also, the edges of the last level were cut off, so I couldn't see the characters when they stepped on the right button or passed the door.
Strange choice of music, it was like elevator music haha.
But yeah well done.
I really like the fluid animations, as well as this fancy ambient occlusion effect. And sound and music were really good to.
And gameplay was interesting and innovative.
Great job!
