The art style is very good, and the transformation mechanic fits the theme really well. Good job!

I liked the cool transformations but I don't think speedrun fits with the game. The level was really fun.

Developer

thanks! was it the level design or the overall mechanics that didn't fit speedrunning (or both)?

I like the graphics, esspecially the squishiness, the gameplay is also really cool, tho idk if it is just me having bad internet but the audio sound a bit deep fried

Developer

thank you! i applied some effects on the music at certains parts of the game so maybe it didn't properly work on web?

I love the concept and how each animal had a different feel for platforming. There definitely needs to be a little balancing. Also how fast the camera moves to look ahead when you change directions or move might want to be tuned a little because I wasn't a fan of that. Other than that one thing, it was honestly a ton of fun and I loved playing it. Keep up the great work! 

Developer

i'll keep your feedback in mind for the camera and the balancing, thanks!
