Very cool concept!

Others have mentioned about game-feedback so I'll mention the controls instead.
Perhaps having the 'possess' button on mouse would help smooth out the experience, as that hand is free while in bug-only form.


Great idea for a game though and it'd be interesting to see this developed beyond the jam :)

It's an interesting game and as a first entry you should be proud!

For the next time I would try to focus on game feedback, so some sort of animation, sound  and/or screen shake when you shoot, take over someone and when you get shot at. That would add a lot to the game :)

Thanks!  We wanted to add more but ended up having several issues that we couldn't overcome in the 2 day period.  Though, all of the code was done from almost scratch, aside from some rendering libraries.  I'll be spending some time refactoring after the rating period and hopefully get this to be where we wanted it!
