A downloadable game for Windows and macOS
You're a shapeshifter biker, all alone in a desolated world, chased by angry ducks in black trucks. To escape, you need to collect all the Animal Powers scattered across the land, in mysterious blue boxes.
Once you collect an Animal Power, you can shapeshift into that Animal for 10 seconds maximum. Some animals destroy enemies, some are invulnerable, some are scary, some can ride through lava, other can fly, some are invisible, and other are, well, surprising.
There are 20 different animals to collect, will you catch them all ?
Shapeshifter Biker was created in less than 72 hours by Renaud ForestiƩ for Ludum Dare #35, which theme was 'Shapeshift'. He's the creator of the Corgi Engine and the Infinite Runner Engine, two awesome frameworks for Unity. Give them a try!

I loved how the different shapeshifter forms had a real impact on my gaming style, and also, the music and artwork were great as hell. <3 A fun little racing game you've created there, so let me congratulate you to the 18th place in the Ludum Dare 35! :) Happily I wrote a little recommendation article about the game and also uploaded a short gameplay video of it. Looking forward to future projects of you!
Best wishes,
Sebastian

Great game, but it does have some glitches, and I would also like to make some suggestions.
First when using flying animals we should be able to use controls to control our height.
also when I fly I often go way too high and disappear from the screen.
octopi and other aquatic creatures should be able to swim in the water on the edges.
the enemies should die in lava.and just an idea, if the enemies are in the thick smoke created by the motorcycle when twisting, they should swerve towards wherever the player was going.
Had a ton of fun with this game! Lots of fun with awesome music :) I do agree that the music would be better if it didn't restart every time you die. Maybe I just need to get better hahaha, definitely one of my favorite games I've checked out for my series, check it out!

Fun game with really good music, but like mentioned in a comment before it would be nice if the music didn't restart everytime you play again, because you die a lot in this game and the background music is a few different pop-rock songs that you almost never get to hear from start to finish. It also had some glitches like turning invisible and getting stuck on parts of the map. I found that the game was easier to play when I didn't shapeshift at all, but that's less fun of course. One last thing is that I couldn't figure out how to quit the game without force quitting it. I'd still recommend trying it out, I really enjoyed the style and atmosphere.
I love this game. Its tons of fun. I am experiencing a glitch though, that sort of makes the game impossible to complete. Every time I turn into a rabbit, my character dissapears and starts driving round super fast and even once the shapeshift runs out I am still invisible.
So, I decided to make a video outta this game. It was pretty good! I enjoyed myself while playing it! :D
Hey, nice mobike feel. You can knock the size of the download down a large chunk by deleting the .PDB files from the main folder.
Well in all my days I never dreamed that I'd see an octopus on a motorbike. It was appropriately awesome- thanks team!
Nice game ! The power of the vulture is awesome and the others are so funny ! Thanks for this game! x)
It looks like a lot of fun. Well, it's necessary to play it.:)
Super fun, super smooth, super free. I love it!
Here's an entertaining look at the gameplay.
I really don't know what to say except that it's nice to be an elephant of a flying biker.
But I long for meaning... so I keep on riding, seeking answers...
I loved this! Really impressive for a Ludum Dare entry, with a great premise and a lot of polish! I wrote my full thoughts out on my curation blog, Quick Bites. Cheers!
I enjoyed this! Cool atmosphere, great music. I'd like for the song to just keep playing when you die, and I think some more detail in the terrain could spice things up too. Really good for a Ludum Dare game!
This game is pure awesomeness! I love it! The music is amazing too, any chance it will be released for download?
Would love to play this game, but there is no linux version :(
ShapeShifter can act a bit strange at times and some of its features arenot obvious. Please consult this FAQ list if you are having problems withShapeShifter.
General
Will there be a PowerPC version of ShapeShifter?
A PowerPC ShapeShifter for AmigaOS is not planned.
How do I type a '~'?
Try <Alt>-<N>, followed by <Space>. If that doesn't work, activate theUSKEYMAP tool type and use the '`/~' key. For other keys, consult the'Keyboard' desktop accessory.
How do I rebuild the desktop file when starting the Macintosh?
You have to hold down the left Amiga key and the right mouse buttonon startup. The key combination <Alt left><Amiga left> doesn't workbecause this combination is intercepted by the Amiga operating systemas a replacement for the left mouse button.
How do I prevent volumes being ejected on restarting the Macintosh?
Hold down the Alt key (or the right mouse button), choose the 'Restart'menu item and keep holding the Alt key until the Macintosh screen iscleared.
I have xx MB of memory in my Amiga, but ShapeShifter is using onlya small part of it.
ShapeShifter can only use a contiguous memory block. E.g. if you have2MB of Chip RAM, 8MB of 32 bit Fast RAM and 4MB of 16 bit Fast RAM,the theoretically available amount of memory for ShapeShifter is 8MB(and not 14MB). The Amiga operating system will, of course, use someof these 8MB for itself.
In spite of my 68040, the Macintosh emulation is slower than on anAmiga 3000. How can that be?
You are probably using a 512K ROM. This ROM is not completely 68040compatible and ShapeShifter has to turn off the data cache to make itrun. If you use a 1MB ROM (e.g. from a Quadra) the speed should increasenotably.
How can I install the Macintosh System without HD floppy drives?
(According to Mike Carlson):
- Use a program called DiskDup+ on a real Mac to read in a Mac System disk. I used the Disk Tools (or whatever it's called) disk from System 7.5 as a test. It doesn't matter that the disk is 1.44 Mb.
- After DiskDup+ reads the disk, have it save the image to a file.
- Get it to your Amiga. I used a null-modem. But you can also use 'Splitz' and 'Jointz' to split the file into smaller parts that can be transferred with DD disks.
- Tell ShapeShifter that this image is a FileDisk.
- Start ShapeShifter.
How do I print under ShapeShifter?
You need a suitable Mac printer driver. For Epson-compatible parallelprinters you can use 'Chuck's Printer Driver', for HP DeskJets/LaserJetsyou need 'HPDJ 3.0'. Simply configure the Mac printer port for the parallelport and choose it from the Mac printer driver. The serial settings don'tmatter but you should turn on 'Hardware Handshake'.
You may also use the commercial package 'Power Print' that includesdrivers for the most popular printers. For more info, contact:
I can no longer format 720K disks under System 7.5/7.6. With 7.1 it worked.
Due to a brain-damaged modification to the Disk Initialization Package,System 7.5/7.6 refuses to format 720K disks unless the '720K Disk Formatter'extension is present. If you give ShapeShifter the tool type '720KKLUDGE',it will format these disks with 719.5K. Apart from losing 512 bytesof disk space, it doesn't make any difference. 719.5K disks can be readon a real Mac as can 720K disks under ShapeShifter with System 7.5/7.6.
The Macintosh doesn't boot. How can I now quit ShapeShifter? The Finderis not loaded.
Shapeshifter For Mac Pro
Press <Ctrl><Shift left><Alt left><Esc>. ShapeShifter should then quititself.
Nothing works! After starting ShapeShifter, I only get a white/gray/ditheredgray screen.
In rare cases, it may happen that the Macintosh won't boot or might crashon startup. Then you should try the following:
- Turn the option 'Allocate Mac ROM memory first' on.
- Turn the option 'Write-protect ROM' off.
- Switch off the CPU cache (command 'CPU NODATACACHE' from the Shell).
- Start ShapeShifter with the tool type 'NOCOPYBACK'.
- Delete the file 'ShapeShifter PRAM' and start ShapeShifter again.
- Change the graphics settings to 'Amiga Bitplanes', '1 Bit' or try the 'Amiga window' mode.
- Hold down the left shift key on startup (first wait for the dithered Mac background pattern to apprear). This will disable all system extensions.
- When you have problems with File-/DeviceDisks/SCSI then make sure that the maximum transfer sizes (MaxTransfer) are set correctly on the Amiga side as well as in the ShapeShifter settings. SCSI devices must be correctly terminated.
- Boot the Macintosh from disk and use 'First Aid' or the Norton Disk Doctor to check the integrity of the start volume and the system file.
- Re-install the Macintosh System, 'for every Macintosh', including the EtherTalk software.
- Try a different Macintosh ROM
If that doesn't help, then I don't know (i.e. bug reports are useless).
Graphics
I have changed the graphics settings and now there is only garbage onthe screen. How can I now quit ShapeShifter?
Press <Ctrl><Shift left><Alt left><Esc> (eventually hold it down).ShapeShifter should then quit itself.
When I switch from the running emulation to my workbench screen,parts of the screen get overwritten with Macintosh graphics.
If you are using CyberGraphX, consider using Picasso96 instead. Otherwisethere is no real solution for this. Press <Ctrl><Tab> before switchingscreens and take care that no Macintosh program is drawing on the screenas long as the Workbench screen is in front to minimize the effect.If you can live with a graphics slowdown, you may also activate thegadget 'Refresh always' in the graphics settings.
With a graphics card under CyberGraphX/Picasso96, I rarely get graphicserrors which disappear with ShapeShifter 3.5.
This is probably due to the QuickDraw acceleration. It can be turnedoff with the 'NOQDACCEL' tool type.
Why are the graphics only in grayscales?
Open the Monitors control panel on the Mac and switch to color.
Will there be video drivers for the OpalVision/IV24 cards?
Not from me.
PrepareEmul
PrepareEmul fails to work, it just reboots and reboots. My Amiga issoftkicked.
PrepareEmul doesn't work with softkickers. The only solution is topatch the Kickstart file as shown in the manual.
PrepareEmul fails to work on my expanded A1200.
Start PrepareEmul with the 'A1200' switch.
PrepareEmul still doesn't work.
Try the 'A1200' switch even if you don't have an A1200.
PrepareEmul still doesn't work.
See the manual for alternatives.
Turbo cards
I have problems on my A2000 with G-Force040 accelerator and a 1MB ROM.
(According to Oliver Stein):
Find the program 'Set040' by Nic Wilson and insert the following line inyour 'Startup-Sequence' right after PrepareEmul:
Find the program 'Set040' by Nic Wilson and insert the following line inyour 'Startup-Sequence' right after PrepareEmul:
If you remove all 16 bit Fast RAM from your system, you are able touse the original (AmigaOS) '68040.library', but then you have to usethe 'A1200' option of PrepareEmul.
(According to Stefan Raudonis):
The program 'GVPCPUCtrl' must not be started in the Startup-Sequence.The command alone, without parameters will cause programs to crashunder ShapeShifter.
The program 'GVPCPUCtrl' must not be started in the Startup-Sequence.The command alone, without parameters will cause programs to crashunder ShapeShifter.
I have problems on my A2000 with a Fusion-Forty accelerator.
To get rid of ALL problems regarding the Fusion-Forty and ShapeShifterand to be able to use ShapeShifter's MMU features, install the original(AmigaOS) '68040.library' in LIBS: and insert the following two lines atthe top of your Startup-Sequence:
Or, if you are softkicking a different ROM image:
You don't need 'PrepareEmul' then.
I have problems with my Phase 5 68060 board.
Turn off the 'CyberPatcher' utility.
SCSI
My SCSI devices are not being recognized.
- The name of the SCSI driver must be spelt correctly. E.g. on the A3000 this is 'scsi.device' in lowercase letters, without quotes, and without 'DEVS:' in front.
- The IDs of the devices you intend to use must have a checkmark in the SCSI settings (the gadgets directly near the digits 0..6).
- The SCSI bus must be correctly terminated.
I cannot use DeviceDisks and/or SCSI devices with my Oktagon/AT-Bus 2008/AlfaPower/TandemAT/ALF-2/ALF-3 controller.
You have to use 'SSIOktaPatch'. Please read the file 'ReadMe' in thearchive 'SSOktaPatch.lha'.
Apple Download
I have problems with SCSI devices on a Fastlane/CyberSCSI/Blizzard SCSIcard.
See the ShapeShifter manual.
Audio
What is 'AHI' and where do I get it?
AHI (Audio Hardware Interface) is a device-independent audio driverby Martin Blom. More information and AHI itself can be foundhere. ShapeShifterrequires ahi.device version 4 or higher.
I can't use my sound sampler. The Amiga hangs as soon as I click on the'Record' button.
Your CPU is probably not fast enough to do the sampling. The CPU loadof sampling at 22kHz equals that of a serial transmission at a sustaineddata rate of approx. 250000bps. As you need a fast CPU to do this withthe 'serial.device', you need a fast CPU to do sound sampling underShapeShifter. 'But my A500 can sample at 48kHz!' you may answer. Thenname any Amiga sound sampling program that multitasks while sampling.
DraCo
Shapeshifter Mackay Steven
ShapeShifter runs on the 'DraCo' computer by MacroSystem. There are onlya few things to take care of:
- PrepareEmul is not needed
- In the 'DraCoSystem' preferences editor, the option 'Enforcer from 0' must be turned off
- To get sound, you must have AHI and a sound card that is supported by AHI (preferably the Toccata by MacroSystem)
- Only HD floppy disks are supported. If the access to the floppy drive is enabled ('Floppy' settings), ShapeShifter will crash on quitting. This is a bug in the dracodisk.device.
- MacsBug doesn't work
Possible problems on the Amiga side
Some properties of ShapeShifter may lead to problems on the Amiga sideor may disturb concurrently running Amiga programs:
- PrepareEmul will move the processor's vector base register (VBR). This may break some, very very few Amiga programs.
- The FileDisks won't work with automatically (de)compressing file systems like XFH. If you use such a file system, you must create the FileDisk files using the name of the original (uncompressed) volume (e.g. 'DH1:MacFileDisk' and not 'XH1:MacFileDisk' if 'XH1:' is an XFH mirror of 'DH1:').
- The debugging tool 'Enforcer' is not compatible with ShapeShifter on principle. You have to turn it off.
- Owners of 68060 turbo boards from Phase 5 must turn off the 'CyberPatcher' utility.
- Utilities that change the behavior of the AmigaOS task scheduler or modify task priorities are generally not compatible with ShapeShifter and may lead to all sorts of weird problems. Do not run these utilities or exclude ShapeShifter from their modifications, if possible.
