Escape CorpoLab by duskpn
Escape from Corpolab is a Metroidvania game where you play as a scientist trying to escape from a lab where he was forced to work.
As you explore the lab, you will gain access to FIVE different animal forms with different abilities. Each form lets you reach different parts of the lab. Try to escape!
This is my 4th LD entry. I challenged myself to go beyond any reasonable scope for a game made in 3 days by 1 programmer and 1 artist. It's lacking polish on many areas, but it's fully playable from beginning to end with almost everything I initially planned.

However, I really like the animation and the art style-
The climbing as cat part looks a little bit weird, and so does shooting- but it's a ludum dare entry so it's ok.
The level design was a bit confusing a first, but after a while I managed to progress-
Also, the music didn't loop, the cat is overpowered, and the switching is somewhat tedious- but the game is still engaging and interesting, even if it's just in order to see what's lying right behind the next corner.
Also, I like the fact that I can turn into a walrus.
It's a great game, the mouse feels kinda useless and the elephant bugged out a bit after breaking boxes, but overall the game has a lot of content, both in stage size and in all the different transformations. Nice job.
I also ran into the bug which let me just fly around as the walrus after leaving the water area.
Could use some instructions.
