How does you game fit the theme?
Our game involves the journey of a protagonist who wakes up at a party, under the influence of substances. Hallucinations make him believe that his friends are all possessed by spirits out to kill him. We hope to portray the helplessness of a person under influence, who questions his own reality.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes, Our code and assets were majorly generated from scratch. Minor audio effects were taken as inspiration from other open source resources.

This was fun and unique! I am not a puzzle game fan myself, but I like that these were not absurdly difficult and felt rewarding enough. I did get completely stuck on this one though. Tried many times. It seems broken. The ghost would either not move, or would stop half way.
Other than that, the only complaint I had was the controls for throwing felt inverted. I kept wanting to press left when what I really needed to do was press right, if that makes sense. Otherwise, great work!
Thanks for the feedback.
Sorry you faced this bug. We're trying to recreate it and getting to the root cause. Thanks for pointing it out.
Your feedback for the throwing mechanic is also very helpful. I wish we had time to playtest it before the submission, but we will make changes now. Thanks a lot!
Really love the art style great game
Thank you so much :D
I love it! Very nice!
Thank you so much

Nice game design and love pixel art!
Thank you so much :D
Cool mechanics and graphics. I like the lore behind it. Keep going!
Thank you so much :D
Really like the whole puzzle system. Its a simple yet interesting mechanic with a lot of potential.
Thanks a lot :D
Liked the sfx.
Thank you :D

Great job !
Thank you so much :)
Nice idea!
Love it! Beautiful sprite and entertaining music
Thank you!
Fun game!
I lost myself for way to long trying to figure these out lol! Fun and addictive!
Thank you!
This is a nice game with a fun puzzle mechanic! I quite like the audio too, the music and sound effects are well done. As other people have mentioned, it would be better to respawn in the level directly, but other than that great work!
loved the interactive audio, great work implementing that in such a short time!
Thank you so much :)
Good game! Super fun with a lot of puzzles. The only thing I didn't like was the walk every time I lost. I would've liked to spawn inside the level. Overall, super good submission!
Thank you!
Hey nice game!
I especially like the adaptive music (jukebox on/off and lights on/off), we always try to add some adaptiveness to our music so it's nice to see other devs do it!
Really liked the atmosphere and puzzles.
One thing I didn't like was the time to respawn and having to walk all the way to the door again, I would have prefered to respawn in the level.
But anyway, great entry, good job!
Thank you so much for the feedback. Glad you liked the music :D
We added the intro scene very last minute to fit the theme more. I wish we had playtested it to realise that it is annoying :(. But thank you for the feedback!
the first time I turned off the lights and the guys turned into a ghost was scary I was not expecting a chase, I like the little gasp noise when it catches you.
Thank you :)
Cute and Innovative Game!
