Really beautiful! The cow made me laugh!
The realm shifting looks really cool!
Nice visuals, but the core is a bit weird. Why does the Viking exist? It's faster to get around as the cow, and the dragon obviously lets you jump high, but this guy just seems to exist to remind me why I should be in some other form.
I do enjoy that your camera work actually helps me feel larger or smaller depending on form.
Kinda laggy.
Nice game, the mood is good when shifting to the abyssal realm, very relaxing to play
The graphics are gorgeous, but unfortunately I wasn't able to play much of the game, as for some reason the controls were totally broken for me.
The cow made me laugh. It made no sense and the proportions were completely out of whack but it was funny.
I really liked the aesthetics and the mood. Great work on the lights, fog and the rest of the visual polish. The gameplay isn't revolutionary and the theme seems more like an afterthought but the style makes up for it.
Graphics were gorgeous, atmosphere was great too! Didn't really see any need for the shapeshifting as I used the dragon almost exclusively, and the end was a bit anticlimactic, but the looks of the game are commendable by themselves.
What?! It's so unfair haha look at those graphics! Congratulations :D
Short and simple game which looks really nice and has some good sound effects! Some more levels or new mechanics would be nice though :)
Baeutiful game with very nice audio! Altrough, I didn't found a reason to be not a dragon, but overal game is great. Congratulations!
WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY too laggy to play. It looks nice though.
Graphics are really great, only thing the framerate is really low, the game is simple and effective, nice job!
Great graphics, enjoyable game, it is unexplainably laggy on my home pc tough :(
Great visuals, and amazing sound effects(which is rare for LD games). It was very relaxing to play, great atmosphere. Funny parody on generic RPGs.
There was no challenge from the gameplay though, a couple puzzles to solve would have helped a lot.
Thank you for all your support and awesome feedbacks! :)
We are sorry to hear that some of you may experience slow framerates. Please try running the Windows desktop version and with 'Fastest' graphics quality (can be set in the configuration window when starting the game).
Really nice mood. The cow was funny. I wasn't sure what purpose changing into different forms served.
Very cool looking game! Love how it looks when you shift realms
Got some nice effects happening in this one. Particularly the shift between realms and playable characters, how'd you do that (source :P)? Audio was well done too.
Damn those graphics !
Too bad there's no music, i would have seen so much genre here !
Definitely deserves a high rating when it comes to art and atmosphere in the game, enjoyed playing it.
Graphics and audio are good, and the realm shifting effects are cool!
I don't know why you need the viking and the cow, because shapeshifting between them is not necessary.
Wow, the graphics are simply amazing!!! Excellent job on your game
WOW i'm just stuned by the graphics. really great game overall. good job
I was really hoping the dragon could fly but a long jump is good I suppose. The viking didn't really have a purpose. I enjoyed it and it was aesthetically pleasing.
I'm not able to launch your game at the moment, but I'll definitely give it a shot asap! Graphics looks definitely cool, though!
Very beautiful and lots of nice details to the shifting world mechanic. The gameplay was really shallow though and I didn't feel challenged at all. And the shapeshifting felt a bit tacked on.
nice and relaxing. The controls felt a little bit late to respond, but graphics were amazing :o
Presentation looks amazing, my only advice would be to perhaps look at the timing between the key press and shapeshift and perhaps make it bit faster just to let the player know the key press registered.
Awesome implementation of the theme! the graphics are awesome and I love how the environment shifts as well as the character. Really well done!
Game and controls are a bit laggy. Graphics are amazing, though. Maybe you could reduce lag if you used baked lightning, graphics would not be exactly the same but since you are focusing on color and solid shadows I think you could achieve something similar and have a lot higher framerate.
Audio is good too. It is a cool entry overall.
nicely put together game, though i don't see the necessity in shapeshifting... I mean, 100% dragon-run is the way to go.
Nice game and funny. Did you make the models yourselves? Just asking.
Nice looking game, plays really smoothly, although i had a bit of lag when i tested it (Web version)
and the shifting between the 3 forms is a bit slow, at first i thought it didn't work but it's just the transition is a bit longer than i thought.
Other than that good job, it's a nice entry :)
I liked the concept, and overall it was pretty good. I'm going to have to omit a score on the graphics though, as they're from here: http://u3d.as/gmF I will commend you on good taste though, as I have that pack as well. Keep it up!
The visual effect is very cool, but seems some UV issue on web version when I play on Safari. What's more, I don't know what the goal is.
I didnt quite see the point of the viking. But the realm shifting was nice. I think its a great concept, but needs polish and more refinement in the game mechanics. Graphics were sweet
I really like the visual effects (although it seems unoptimised at the moment as it's a bit taxing on my graphics card) and the concept is fun and interesting (it was pretty hilarious turning into a cow). My only gripe is that the forms you can shapeshift into could be slightly more fleshed out in terms of mechanics.
Atmospherically, graphically, and aesthetically fantastic! Unfortunately the game mechanics weren't PARTICULARLY compelling, so that could've used more thought, but this is a GENUINELY impressive entry nonetheless. Well done.
Good job. I wasn't sure what to do at first but when changing the realm I got it ^^ The 2 doesn't seem to cause a transformation. The atmosphere and graphics were great. The theme was used well :)
Woow, this game is GORGEOUS! I didn't know what am I doing, but I did it! And I enjoyed it! xD
I've made a short let's play, if you want to check it out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lrz3oT0Q2UA

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.
Wow, congratulation, your game is very beautiful !
