How does you game fit the theme?
The game refer to spooky ghost and supernatural things that you can’t encounter in real life
( You can unlock new power and ability by trick people over and over )
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
I write all the code in unity and make the assets from photoshop. My teammate make the main theme from garageband.

Love the whole design of this game, Really simple and satisfying gameplay. Great work!
finally understand what am i supposed to do. but by the game ghost interacting with objects to scare ppl is already so fun to play. very enjoyable. would be nice if you have some clearer instructions. Got you guys a pretty high rating. great job!
It took me a while to realize I was interacting with the people but the environment, which actually made the game more fun, I had to constantly look for new objects to interact with while also sync with their movement.
Fun game, with an additional mechanic implementation I can see this being a complete game, mostly for mobile, its fun for killing time no serious skill required to play. I wonder if you are going to continue the work on this project post-jam?
note: after some time some of the kids got stuck/ stopped moving in a very empty room so I could barely interact with them
The art and audio are really good,
For a first game that's really good, you should be proud!
But you should always make sure players know what to do,
It feels like a well-polished game which is really nice, just think it lacks communication with the player
if you have that it could be a really good game.
Great job!
Fun idea and cute graphics. A bit more information about the objectives (maybe also inside the game world) would be nice. This is one of the better games. Congrats!
Fun gameplay and nice art style. Though I was confused about what I should be doing in the game, some control schemes and/or tasks would be nice (must?) to have. :)
Nice game! It wouldve been nice if you would tell at the start that you only can interact with blue objects and maybe visualize how many children you spooked and when you get new powerups, but overall pretty solid! Keep up the good work!
(btw would really appreciate it if you check out my game too)
Congrats on completing your first game jam.
Your game was pretty casual, and I had some fun spooking around children. But I was not sure what to do next after some time. Would have been nice if there was some scoring metric, and a hook for the game in general.
There is a lot of potential in the game. All the best for your future jams.
First of all congrats for submitting to your first game jam!
Things I do like: the graphics are very nice. The colors work well together, so a consistent art theme. Very nice. The animations are also really good. Music is nice but gets a bit repetitive after some time.
Some tips to improve:
A bit more tutorial in the game would be nice, so what controls to use and what the goal of the game is. Also there should be some visible track of progress like how many tears to collect for next upgrade and also for the main goal so the player can work towards it. Right now the game gets boring after some time, wich can easily be fixed by adding progress tracking and/or making the game a bit shorter.
That said I think this is an impressive first jam game. Especially the graphics are very well done and don't need improvement in my opinion.
Well done!
A bit confusion on what's happening at the beginning but actually really well put together game love the art and sound Direction
VERY COOL GAME!! I don't know why it doesn't have more than 20 rates.
