Really charming! We had the same idea pitched in our group so it's fun to see the game running! Really liked it, didn't run in to any bugs or problems that I could tell. I have to say though, that's quite the mean lose screen :)

Cool concept. It makes it very tactical thinking about when you will unwolf.

Take the ReinsThanks!
I had originally wanted to do a Mario-style jump, where you fall faster than you rise, but I didnt know how to do that in a physics-based game engine. Guess that was my trade-off for using a game engine that let me get it done on time, but I hope I can make the jump feel tighter in any post-jam version
game felt fun to play, cool concept. I image if you had more time this would have been an awesome game! Good stuff!

ControlmenHey that's a really cool mechanic you have there. Fun game! You should totally develop this further.

Wetline: TurkuThank you!
RNG-wise, there aren't any points in the game that require good RNG. There is one bonus life (at the very end) where RNG is needed after collecting it, but that's the only spot, and no required paths need it. It's probably still my fault, as I didn't communicate very well how the shifting mechanic chooses its movement
This game is really clever!! I really got caught of guard when the werewolf form was targetting the enemy above you, it was clever use of that mechanic! The platforming feels pretty good to do too. I love this concept and if it had more different transformations with different trade-offs that would be really cool!

Broken Lightwell done game, the theme was there in an elegant way, pretty smart how you loose control as a werewolf, makes a lot of sense. nice potential puzzle adventure game. The concept of lives is ok, since you have to do something extra to the main path to get them, it makes a little high risk high reward. but having lives might loose the some less patient players when they loose to the game, i think a good work around could be keys to unlock the next level, or to keep the feeling of high risk high reward, maybe a star system, so you get better score if you pick all the stars, or maybe some cosmetics or fancy stuff to give more value to the gameplay, idk. But great work, keep it up!

NeoGenesisSuper interesting use of a werewolf mechanic! It took a few deaths to understand the mechanics, but it was fun when i did!
