Impressive it runs in browser! (after a loooong loading time)
But somehow the controls and physics do not respond very good, i feels slow somehow. The shifting armor is great idea for shapeshift!
One thing I really liked was the ability to use the terrain as a ramp. I tried to land on top of the enemy, that kind of Shadow Of The Colossus combat might be fun in a later iteration. I did find there were some physics glitches here though - whenever the car landed it would spin around and get stuck until it stopped. Pretty minor but wanted to let you know in case you want to iterate the game sometime.
I love that it's one big boss fight, I had a lot of fun playing against the boss and it has a bunch of different phases that look really good and work well. Feels like a classic boss rush stage and gets right into the action. To make a recommendation about the theme, maybe to fit with it a little better you could transform your car to have different power ups on the fly.
Overall a really impressive entry for such a short time and I had a lot of fun playing! Thanks for your entry, hope you had fun making it! :D
