He was surely a ghost. He had the whole red eye and everything! No way he was an innocent.

I  like the lighting effect and interacting with the people. The mechanic is fun but the camera movement is a little weird sometimes. Overall really nice game!

That recoil was really hard to shoot.

But yep I like how you design interaction with object in the game. Nice game bro!

Submitted(+1)

really cool game design, art and sound effect. The theme match perfectly well. I don't like the part where camera vibrate when you shoot tho, a bit annoying. Overall good stuff u made :)

Gotta give the audio five stars because I may or may not have done the music and I may or may not be biased but This game is really fun and the artwork is very interesting! Also a great concept!

Hahahaha. Thanks for making the music, man!

I really enjoyed your art style (especially how the light interacts with the walls to limit vision) and the core mechanic of finding ghosts and maintaining morale. The only minor suggestion is to replace the text with some images to speed the player up in understanding the game. Good work overall!

Its so cool and spoopy at the same time, good game.

Submitted(+1)

It's a unique concept and gameplay! The feedback for when the player is low on morale actually simulates the stressful tension that the in-game character would be feeling when he's low on morale. Some levels could have been more populated/detailed though, maybe even different colour palettes.
Overall, amazing game!

nice game design and art style

really enjoyed the gameplay too

nice job man

Submitted(+1)

Very good game design having things appear as ghosts from a distance and with low morale. Keeps the game challenging and interesting. Great game that suits the theme very well.

Developer

Thank you for the feedback!

I don't have the nerves not to shoot everybody :D Cool Idea and nice soundtrack . The camera shaking make's it more dramatic but it feels a bit too much after a while. 

Developer

Thank you! The camera shake was a bit tricky to implement, but I should've lowered the intensity early on.

Submitted(+1)

Cool game idea! I like how the the people could be seen as ghost from afar but revealed when getting closer, creates a nice trade-off between keping close to ensure the ghost is real while at the same time wanna keep a distance so the ghost does not do as much damage

I think the camera could be tweaked a bit more to give more sight in the direction you were aiming.

Developer

Yeah, the camera generally points ahead of the direction you were moving. Perhaps I could've made it to aim to where you were aiming instead. Thank you for the feedback!

The gameplay feels good and I like the way you use 2d shadow. Had a good time playing it.

Developer

Thanks! Getting 2d shadows to work with tilemaps was a pain, but I got it to work.

Your tie-in to the theme was fun, levels were a bit too big but I had fun playing it!

Developer(+1)

Thank you! The world was quite large, perhaps I should've made things smaller earlier.

I really enjoyed this game overall, it is a lot of fun to play! I also really like how you included the theme, you basically double followed the theme because not only were there ghosts, even the non ghosts could still be ghosts which would be not real!

Really frantic gameplay experience, supported by the music and the way the camera moves. I'd say it's maybe a more stressful than it is fun, but I imagine that's what being a ghost hunter would actually feel like. Challenging in a good way! I second the slightly empty feeling levels. However, it's a solid entry overall  with an interesting idea that could be built upon!

Developer(+1)

Thank you! I tried to make it fell stressful as your job, and it's great to see it works. Thank you!

Submitted

glad you like the music I’m proud of it lol :)

The Game idea is cool. The Levels were a bit empty. And when you lose you start at the first map where the ghost is in the same place. I think it should've been a "Tutorial Level".

Over al good job!

Developer

Yeah, the first level is the tutorial level. Also, the levels gain much more objects at deeper stages, but perhaps I should've balanced that a bit more. Thank you!
