How does your game fit the theme?
The morning represents the calm where the player collects items and memorizes the map while the night is the storm. The player needs to run through the darkness avoiding the ghost and collecting the candles for the ritual.

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
I wrote all the code. Made most of the art. My teammate made the music. The player character and the ghost are assets I got from Itch.

Amazing artwork for the game, atmosphere was done well and cool concept too, I do think that sometimes the game doesn't give the player enough time to freeze the ghost cuz some times it just happens instantly after turning night but overall great work :)

Really neat! I think from a balancing perspective, there isn't quite enough time to freeze the ghost before he gets you. He'd show up in my light space without much time to press left shift. If I wasn't super fast, it would get me. I know sometimes the ghost would sound, but it wasn't always consistent. I think just a tiny bit more time would've worked. I agree with some of the other people here that the ambient of the night time was really good.

Really nice and complete, thanks for the trip!

I don’t know if I got lucky, or if it was a bug after dying once and restarting, but I didn’t see the ghost. Also, definitely a bug, there was 2 of me on the second map during day time? The day triggered after picking the candle of the bottom left class, and on my right there was another me outside of the screen next to the bookcases. When I moved she moved the same, so I got after her and was able to see her.

Great atmosphere during night time! Well done!

I love the art of the characters! The lighting during the dark parts really adds to the scary feeling!

Cute character!

Great game, took some time to realize I can trap the ghost at any time, but beside this it felt complete and it was fun.

Great concept and amazing atmosphere! The art really sets the tone, and the tension builds nicely with the sound design. I found the gameplay engaging, though the screams were a bit intense for me. Maybe adding some mechanics like candles to ward off the ghost could balance the difficulty while keeping the suspense. Overall, really enjoyable experience—well done!

Very nice art! And a pretty scary atmosphere. I enjoy it if you remove the scary screams (I am afraid of screams) and maybe add other game mechanics - for example, you can leave candles on the floor and they scare the ghost. Overall, good job!

The art and Phasmophobia-like ghost got me! I had a lot of fun and got nervous while playing since I love games like this! Good job!

Solid homie, I failed my first attempt then beat it on my second. The art was quite charming and I really appreciated what you did with the lighting for the second phase of the game. Very similar to what we did in Spiral, I was really happy to see another game going for it.

Really cool game! The audio really works well for knowing where the ghost is and it's quite tense. I really like the art style as well!
