Frozen Water Maze by zoeinfp

[raw]
made by zoeinfp for LD35 (JAM)
Frozen Water Maze is an unfinished (yet) game made in like ...5 hours a day because of a lack of sleep. The concept is to shapeshift a water element player.

Use the arrows keys and shapeshift using...
-d for droplet shape
-c for cloud shape
-i for ice cube shape

Will you find by yourself wich one is the best for each situation?

Libraries you'll need to play the game

The concept looks really good, even an unfinished playable demo would make it easier to rate though

The idea was good and the art looks very nice. It's a shame it's not finished. I'd suggest you put your controls together (like Z,X,C morphs you into the different shapes).

I really tried to play this, installed all the dependencies etc, but got this:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "fwm_main.py", line 236, in <module>
FWMMain()
File "fwm_main.py", line 32, in __init__
pygame.display.set_icon(pygame.image.load(icon_path))
pygame.error: Couldn't open /assets/ico.png

on mac btw

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

Thanks for the comment you left last week. It may seem like a small thing, but it really made my day after struggling with that low level engine the whole three days.

I tried to play your game, but it quickly became apparent that this would require dealing with the mess of half-installed python versions I have on this system ... :-/

The YT video still looks quite impressive for something that has max 15 hrs in it + added sleep deprivation*! :-)
(Also, 'phases' is a nice interpretation of the theme...)

*) I think every LD'er knows how /that/ feels...

For 5 hours a day, which would mean... 15 hours of work total, this is great! Those anime eyes are adorable.

We have work only 2 days on it, so it's 10 hours of work but we are going to make a post jam version. Stay in tune.

I couldn't play your game because I couldn't figure out how to install the libraries: pip failed with "cannot import name HTTPSHandler" and I'm not familiar enough with the Python ecosystem to know how to work around this. Why don't you package your game like everyone else?
