Our take on Shape Shifter
The four-mode presentation may suggest a wide range of content, but the modes remain variations on navigating gaps, avoiding red blocks, pushing them with green elements, and scoring. Combo changes the pace and difficulty rather than introducing a separate structure.
What is Shape Shifter?
Shape Shifter is a game about guiding a constantly changing white shape through gaps.
Jump mode awards 1 point per jump while the shape avoids red blocks. Wave mode gives 1 point for each red block left behind. Clean mode adds green elements that can push the red blocks, awarding 5 points for each green element touched. Combo mode combines the other modes into a faster and more difficult format. The gameplay centers on movement through openings, avoiding obstacles, interacting with green elements, and building a score. The four modes modify these mechanics rather than introducing a separate story or progression system.
