Ludum Dare 35 Entry

Scale obstacles as a shapeshifting polygon!

Controls:

• Left/Right for turning/moving
• Hold up to "jump"
• Z,X,C,(V/Space) to shapeshift
• Backspace to respawn
• Tab to mute music
• Escape to quit
• < and > to skip though levels
• F11 to toggle Fullscreen

Guide:

• Climber (Z):
  • Can move, turn, and jump
  • Use tips (not edges) to jump against objects
  • Good for bouncing around and climbing up and down
• Ball (X):
  • Can move and turn but not jump
  • Moves faster but less bouncy
  • Smaller (good for tight spaces)
• Anchor (C):
  • Can't move or jump
  • Weighs much more
  • Literally just used as a weight
• Ghost (V/Space):
  • Can't steer movement
  • No gravity
  • Returns to previous shape after exiting a wall
  • Decays after a few seconds without hitting a wall
  • Will respawn you if you get stuck inside of a wall
• Hints:
  • This is a few second cooldown to shape shifting
  • Ghost clipping is proximity based, so if you ghost while on the ground, it will not stop ghosting until after you are far enough away from the ground
  • Once again, climber sides/edges are for slowing down, tips are more bouncy
  • Level 2 is not that hard! Time-wise it's the easiest/shortest level. You can use your shapeshifting creativity to skip most of it!
