Pretty cool game, very fun to play. Especially like the healing and shield form. Only thing I'd ask for is a way to choose exactly what form to shapeshift into as it takes a while to cycle through all forms. But overall very good, graphics and sound, as well.

Great game with the funny story at the beginning. I just found the sounds a little too aggressive. Good job

This game was so much fun! It was challenging and funny, and the graphics and audio were awesome! I really enjoyed playing it. The controls were super smooth and the rules were easy to understand. I basically just remembered jellyfish and turtle and used anything else to attack. The effects were great.
Great job! :DDDDDDD

Darn, PoV gets mad when has low health.

Spoiler:
Bottom right corner is blind spot. It dodges almost everything.
(Snake + Jellyfish in the bottom right corner wins the game)
It was even hard to win that way tho.

Kinda fun game :) Funny story.

The concept itself is very simple. The controls are smooth, but the sound is a little bit too aggressive.
Really nice intro, btw xD

Hi, nice game ! We're realizing a video with several games of the Ludum Dare #35.
Can you add your game on www.indiexpo.net ? It's like itch or gjolt.
So we can include also your game in the video ;)
p.s. write #LDJAM in the game's description

an intresting take on the bullet hell genre, hilarious and fun, i feel like maybe the shapes are too many, a less shapes with more specific functions should be better in my opinion, good work :)

Awesome work!
I like the graphics and the audio is really great! Its hard as f*** to win, but that only makes it more satisfying.
Only critique I have is, that most of the form arent really needed. I only really used the dragon(?) and the jellyfish.
All in all very nice work :)
