ConFused Industries

Controls

WASD, Arrow Keys, Controller stick - move forward/backward and rotate left and right

Space, Ctrl, A/B - Animal special action, and interaction with ConFusion machines

R / Select - Respawn

What is this?

TLDR: Mostly a fun character creator that needs some UX polish, and a very very prototype-stage game using that character creator.

You are a new breed of highly intelligent and specialized hybrid animal who just escaped from their holding area at ConFusion Industries! Use one of 5 special abilities to solve puzzles, and mutate into other types of animals when you need the other abilities! Or, at least, that's what it hopefully will be someday. Right now the level after the character creator is mostly just a testing jungle gym. You can play around with using and mutating your animal, and find all the neat narration points if you can!
