How to Play Shape Shifter

Quick start

Explore the opening town, obtain a usable weapon, and learn the first transformation before venturing farther. Return for recovery when Lykos is badly hurt.

Controls

The direction pad moves Lykos and navigates menus. The action buttons attack and jump. Use the status or transformation menu to select the available form and equipment.

Shape Shifter — About this game

Lykos’s journey combines side-scrolling action with the need to prepare between expeditions. Town offers a place to recover and obtain weapons, while the areas beyond it hold hostile creatures, platforms, and bosses. Different weapons change how safely you can deal with a threat, and transformations expand the possibilities of movement and combat. The route forward is therefore as much a question of choosing the right ability as executing a jump. Keep track of passages that resist your current form, return to town when supplies are low, and learn the reach of a weapon before committing to a close encounter.
