I can see that you were probably inspired by Link from Zelda II when you were drawing the main character.

Some thing that could be improved:\r<br\/>- Gosh please remove the falling on the ground sound. It's just annoying and provides really no feedback at all.\r<br\/>- You should be able to go through the platforms when jumping under then, this not only makes you able to use then in different ways as it makes it less frustrating when you make a climbing part because you don't have to precisely jump in order to not bump the head in a platform and fall to your death. I really wanted to be able to play the rest of the game, but I couldn't get though level 3 because of that\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Other than that, the graphics are really clean and the backgrounds are awesome. The image you made for the game though really doesn't help at all.

Thank you for not having enemies! But in an LD context it's refreshing to play a platformer where the mechanics have actually been written from scratch rather than being fudged with a physics engine, it's always more satisfying this way. I tried, I really did, but after the second time of falling off just before eating the berries that turn you into a bird, I had to quit :) Good job!"}],"images":["ld35\/50659-4aba73c8367c0e25bf44710cc4067a74.jpg","ld35\/50659-896ce0cff7d78df7e5cb770c38e68d8d.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/github.com\/bentglasstube\/ld35","text":"Source"},{"url":"http:\/\/ludum-dare.eatabrick.org\/35\/shifty-berries-linux.tgz","text":"Linux"},{"url":"http:\/\/ludum-dare.eatabrick.org\/35\/shifty-berries-windows.zip","text":"Windows"},{"url":"http:\/\/ludum-dare.eatabrick.org\/35\/shifty-berries-osx.tgz","text":"OSX"},{"url":"https:\/\/youtu.be\/-k_Hu91_guE","text":"Time Lapse"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"3838","g_author":"50659","g_event":"LD35","g_eventkey":"33","g_subevent":"COMPO","g_urlkey":"3847","g_title":"Shifty Berries","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"542","g_commentcount":"34","g_site2_node_id":"0","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":[],"node":null,"orig_images":["http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/542293\/50659-shot0-1460941850.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/542293\/50659-shot1-1460941850.png-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"# Ludum Dare 35 - Shifty Berries\r\n\r\nUse berries to shapeshift into different animals and navigate through platform\r\npuzzles.
