Oh no! Shifty, your shape-shifting pet has gotten jumbled up in the crowd! Luckily, you are equipped with his favorite toy, your mouse pointer! Shifty will follow the mouse as long as it's moving. Click on the one you think is Shifty, and comment your high score! You gain and lose points based on if you clicked the correct one! There is a high score, I haven't gotten around to displaying it, though. So I'll keep it here: Record: 18 Holder: @TheBadDemon (You must be scratcher to edit cloud variables) Story of creation When I heard the theme shape shifter, I immediately though of a Where's Waldo style game where you have to find the shape shifter, so I begun. I had no idea what I wanted the characters to look like, so I took iconic indie and triple a game representatives and game them my own spin, in my own art style and making them different enough to feel like they aren't the same but definitely similar. The coding process was pretty simple for the most part, but getting everything polished up was tricky. I used some griffpatch tutorials for some of the more complex stuff! For the art, I wanted the backgrounds to be only one color, so that the characters would stand out against them, and I think I did a pretty good job! I decided to mix styles for this, so the characters have *almost* straight black outlines with a vibrant color palette , while the backgrounds have no outlines and use (for the most part) only one color, with two different kinds, being one darker and more vibrant, and the other brighter and less vibrant. I also added shadows to all of the characters which, in my opinion, made them stand out even more! I am, by no stretch of the imagination, a musician, so I found a nice hectic kirby track and some sound effects off pixabay and bam! Sound design done! Normally I dread sound design, and it's where most of my unshared games go wrong, but this time it only took me about 20 minutes to get all the sounds for the game! I am currently awaiting the results of the jam. I'm in both the academy version and the public version, and I really want to get shortlisted or maybe even win in the academy jam.
PLEASE give it a HEART if you enjoy! Results: SHORTLISTED! In the casual game category :) Music is from Nintendo. Nintendo for inspiration on some art. Sfx from pixabay. Coding and art by me. Griffpatch for layering and counter tutorials. Griffpatch for the contest. After releasing this I realized it was SUPER similar to @Not_A_School_account 's project "speed search," that is a coincidence. I'm sorry, I may have had it in the back of my mind or something.
