Favorite game in the jam, it's fun, it's pretty and I love the gameplay. I agree with Hertzrat, you should definitely polish and publish it.

I had fun with this one.
The water jumping section was rather difficult.
But overall the aesthetics, sound and gameplay was good.
The ghosts gave a proper sense of dread.

CUBE - Next GenerationSpeaking for myself, favourite game in the jam, but it would be 10x better at a steady 60 fps. Super fun, you should polish it up and sell it for $5-$15 next halloween (depending on how much polish).

A Few Nights Room And BoardThis one was fun! I liked it, took me 2 tries to find the treasure. Almost didn't make it the second time because the water parkour section is very difficult :) The first time I played I didn't even realize I could grab the torches. My daughter (4 yr old) was watching me play, and the Spookz really spooked her :) so well done!

Fools ManorReally like it tbh. My first time round I didn't really get that the spooks were draining my torch. I thought it would ward them off (should have focussed more when I read the help :P). I found the treasure second time round though. Nice.
My only real criticisms are that I got snagged on the scenery quite often (made a bit worse by the stamina system meaning I couldn't just a lot of the time), and a few times I'd trigger the water penalty when I felt I should have been a good distance from the waters edge (a pirate that can't swim? :D)
Overall, I thought it was pretty well made
Great stuff, thank you for the feedback and super happy you enjoyed it!
The snagging was something we need to spend some time on for sure, the movement controller I was using was letting me run up anything <90 degrees! So we tweaked that and it made it a little janky!
The stamina has been re-balanced 4 times since we finished up the initial submission :D Its an area that needs more work for sure.
The water system was a bit of a rushed job so I do apologize for any frustration with that! Another victim of the bad character movement system changes I made!
Thanks again for the awesome feedback. We're chuffed to have such high praise from the creator of the amazing Neo FPS!!!! <3

This was fun and nicely done. Good balance of spooks vs rum.
Would be fun if the rum had a drunk effect, maybe making the ghosts look less scary / more hazy.
Loved the skeleton in the wall in the mine.
I tried for a good 30 mins to find the treasure - really good for a game jam output. I even kept it on my disk and might try again.
