I liked the music.
I was pretty lost on what to do.
Sending Nofiremon to the fire was pretty self explanatory, but when I did nothing happened?

Nice game and i really liked the music. Though it took me quite a while how to treat the "camps" and all that stuff so a tutorial you really help.

There needs to be more juicy feedback and maybe a way to get more shapeshifters. It would be cool if the shapeshifters changed shape, for example to a fire hose, instead of just changing color. Maybe that is what you intended to do, since there is a fire hose on the nofiremon icon, and it is understandable that you didn't add so much polish, since you only had 48 hours.

Yes I wanted to do that Vantaux. I had even prepared an animation. But I lacked the time. http://imgur.com/EddQjbl

Great music, but it wasn't clear if my shapeshifters were helping in any given disaster, and with all 4 of them assigned there was nothing for me to do

It's a nice idea, but it definitely needs more feedback. For example, I'm still not sure if/when I'm supposed to take my shapeshifters away from a crisis.

Yeah, as @Vantaug was saying. The menu is pretty confusing because there isn't enough feedback. Next time I'd suggest switching to Jam if you run out of time, so you can get one more day to add in the animations you prepared, would have loved to see them in action :)
