You have a weird ability: you can reform your head at will.
You can also cut the formed pieces off.
Use these abilities to traverse obstacles and dangerous environments.
Only a short stage in this version, hopefully will make more and design more varied traps and environments if people like the idea.

I hope you plan to expand on these mechanics, it could get through steam green-light!
Cool mechanic. I like the progression of the level. Very nice and simple.
Very original idea, I liked it, lacked music, but was fun overall.
The linux link failed because there is no data folder. Copying the data folder from the windows archive is not enough to make it work.
That said, wine work on the windows executable. A very inovative point of view on shapeshipting, I love it!
Thanks for the positive feedback guys, it is really appreciated!
Linux build is indeed messed up, I am really sorry! This build should work:

Cute and gore. Nice take on the theme and pretty enjoyful. Please continue working on.
Very interesting use of the theme, well done! There's potentially so much stuff to do with this mechanic.
once i jump/move in the linux build my character won't stop running/jumping and i have to tab in/out to fix it. the head mechanic works fine though. this is a nice and innovative concept and i hope you keep improving and building more levels for it. and the eyes are a nice touch
@xandy I am really sorry about the linux issues, I didn't have time to test the game on linux!
I didn't get this problem on my (virtualboxed) Ubuntu, however I uploaded another version of the game which just might fix your controls issue (uses GetAxisRaw instead of GetAxis). Otherwise I will need more info to pinpoint the problem, or perhaps update my Unity (maybe 5.4beta has better linux support).
Really fun mechanic that works surprisingly well and must have been tricky to get to work! Really good job, totally original and I liked the presentation too. I did find the jumping controls a little bit tricky and ended up doing an extra jump a few times unintentionally.
Wow, this game is really innovating! Really great idea and fun to play! There's lot's of potential humor here as well with the shapes you can create lol. Great work! Oh and the graphics are good as well. Needs sounds and music though!
Awesome game! This takes the shapeshifting theme to a new level! Very innovative. I appreciate the lovely mesh manipulation/cutting techniques you used for the head growing/cutting. Well done!
Awesome shapeshift theme. I was really amused when I realised how to get up to the high platforms the first time. Great, would be cool to see the concept evolve!
Awesome idea and a really unique twist on the theme. I think I had some issues as I needed to be kinda 2 inches off to the left of where I wanted to be clicking, which made it a bit tricky to play! But I could definitely see a great idea shining through!
Hello, hi, congratulations on the results, I liked this game a lot, it really is innovative x)
I've made a short let's play, if you want to check it out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4RlnK5fDdqU

Mini Submission FAQ
TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.
CAN I ENTER BOTH EVENTS?: You should pick 1 event, whichever you think it’ll do better in. If the idea is strong, and everything plays well enough, you can go Compo. If you’re a perfectionist, and would prefer people to play a more polished game, do the Jam. Historically, more games are entered in the Compo, but with more people and more time, Jam games have the potential to be better (that doesn’t mean they are). Many solo participants do enter the Jam.
If you made 2 games, unfortunately, the website doesn’t support multiple submissions per user. To submit your 2nd game, you will have to make a 2nd account. Only do this if you made 2 games. Alternatively, if one game is better than the other, then consider just entering the better game.
CAN I KEEP WORKING UNTIL THE DEADLINE?: Yes! Immediately after the 48 or 72 hours, we do something called Submission Hour. As the name suggests, it’s an extra hour for you to package, upload, and submit your games. If there were catastrophic issues trying submitting your game, or you misunderstood how submissions work, that’s okay. It happens. We’re flexible. If you need advice, check with the folks on IRC. If you need an admin, get in touch.
CAN I KEEP WORKING ON MY GAME?: Oh definitely! You should! But for the sake of judging, keep the Compo or Jam version around. You can include a link to the Post-Compo/Post-Jam version of your game on your games page, but sure your main links are the original version.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate at least 20 games to improve your visibility (Coolness).
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crashes, win condition, or tiny bugs after the deadline. In a sense, this is like “porting” to support more players. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just fixing mistakes you should have caught had you been better rested.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up. Alternatively, if you just posted it, wait a minute. The cache may not have refreshed yet.
NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
Loved it :D Very funny and unexpected. I like how cute he is when he blinks!
