The Transmogrifier by Hjalte500

[raw]
made by Hjalte500 for LD35 (JAM)
You play as a wizard with a newly obtained transmorphing power. You have to use this power to get through a dungeon filled with only the most wretched and evil of monsters. You will face slimy blobs dragging their gross entrails across a dirty, cold stone floor. You will meet skeletons with no other purpose than to guard their home and kill any invader on sight. Stay out of their sight at any cost if you want to survive! Only the wizards who possess the utmost speed and/or wit will be able to get through these rooms of horror! So what will you do?

Beware! The skeletons are half-ghosts so they may walk through a wall or two if they feel like it. Not a bug, not lazy AI programming.. nonono Ghost Skeletons!

Controls:
WASD or arrow keys to move
LMB to shoot
Scroll Wheel to select object (bottom right)
R to restart level
ALT + F4 to quit

It's sad that there is some bugs like ennemies who can see you through the walls, the concept is really funny! Good job for the audio, the differents themes are great :)

Love the graphical style. Couldn't figure out a use for the less offensive spells. Really wanted to eat the chicken too. :) If you pursue beyond LD, having some defence against the arrows, or hitpoints would be cool. It became frustrating after a while having to do-over the same level after an arrow from a recently vanquished skeleton gets you from beyond the grave. :(

It has potential for sale at some point. Needs more polish, but good start.

Way too hard, arrows are to fast. You have to pretty much spam your attack from off-screen :(
I had to kill some skeletons exploiting a bug and shooting through a wall :p
Nice art though!

Collision detection was broken sometimes and the enemies could walk through walls. Other than that, the idea would be pretty great if this mechanic was used for anything else. Rn it's only used for stopping enemies and every object has basically the same effect.

Great art and sounds, but like many said, the game is too difficult. The arrows fly too fast imo

The graphics and sound & music were really great! The game was kinda fun as well, although I couldn't figure out why you would need the different transformations (after trying out some of the others I just spammed the shoot key without ever changing the object). There were lots of collision bugs as well. All in all, an enjoyable game!
