How does you game fit the theme?
The main thing is that the ghost follows you and when it touches you, you get dash. The secondary thing is the story told at the boss hall.

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes I did, it took few sleepless nights tho.

Cool dash mechanic and nice art! Although for some reason I could dash up-left but not up-right. 

Submitted

Fun game, I love how it looks and feels. The wall jumping was quite hard for me, but the rest was pretty spot on. Well done.

Submitted

Cool mechanic but not a huge fan of how you implemented the wall jumping was hard to get by. It would be also cool if the dash locked your direction instead of just giving a burst in speed. Cool game had fun :)

Submitted

Nice game! I love the idea and this perfectly fits the theme!

Developer

Thanks! 

Submitted

You nailed  the art 🥺🥺🥺

Developer

If you like my art you should check out my previous game i made for another jam as I placed 1st in graphics by community there ;) 

Submitted

The controls feel pretty great and snappy! I quit the first time after getting stuck on the wall in the third map, I couldn't tell if I was supposed to wall jump. I wanted to go back and try again but unfortunately I seem to hit an issue where pressing any button doesn't start the game, and the text isn't flashing anymore (can't remember if it ever was).  The full screen mode also seems to cut off a bit of the map for me.

Developer

Yeah I noticed on previous jam i participated that itch sometimes has issues when so mamy games are submited and sometimes game doesn't respond after it is loaded. It happens to many games and mostly you just need to reload the page of game. Thanks for feedback and I hope you'll try again and this time get at least to the boss :) 

Submitted

i am a noob i cannot beat this game but great game, looks great, feels great, has interesting mechanics, wouldnt change a thing

Submitted

Quite a hard for me, but I enjoyed this game. The jump sound fx triggers when you press the button even when you're in the air, which is weird. The ghost thing for dash is also an interesting idea. Good job!

Developer(+1)

Yep, there are some glitches I am aware of and that's one reason for title :D but it's a jam after all, nothing is perfect. Thanks for your kind words! 

Submitted

Cant beat the game because of my weak skills but its a great experience. The music is kinda annoying but the mechanic is cool.

Developer

Sad that you didn't get to the boss, the music changes there to one less annoying xd

Submitted

I'm noob at this game :/

Developer

Don't worry, I am too. I had to try many times every level on playtests but I wanted to make something challenging ;) 

Submitted

Great job love the art!

Submitted

Very well done

Developer

Thanks! 

Submitted

Really love the pixel look! I managed to learn a little trick a bit in, if I spam X on any wall I can scale it very quickly without needing to bounce! Really enjoyed this, great job!

Developer

Really? I thought i fixed this error twice. Well i guess it's a feature now ;) Thanks for feedback! 

Submitted

This so much fun! I eventually got there, LOVE the transitions between the levels aswell. If I were you I would make it more obvious that the ghost allows you to dash, or change the jump key to somthing were more used to.

Submitted

This plays great! love the music, LOVE the graphics, would love to see more!

Developer

Hey thanks! Firstly I wanted to make it in higher resolution, I even made player sprite in 24x24px but then i realised 2 days passed and I would not finish it like that. Maybe some day I will but for now  you can check out my other game I made for another jam!

Submitted

Wow! Loved duck tape! I love your pixel art and I think the assets you made work perfectly for glitchery

Submitted

Nice game ! i like the feature with the mask :)

Developer

Thank you! 

Submitted

Nice game, inspired by Celeste, isn't it ? :-)

I liked it, difficulty is a plus to me.

As a dev, I get that having to wait for the ghost to get the dash back is a design choice, however as a player, I found it disturbing, especially in the first level. I just spent some time waiting on platform and tried (and succeeded sometimes) to find other way to climb / jump.

Developer

Yeah I didn't think this through with the dash. I wanted to make some unique mechanich but i didn't have this much time to think about many levels that force you to get the dash mid air. Thanks for feedback I appreciate it :) 

Submitted

Cool take on an platformer game

Developer(+1)

Thank you

Submitted

Fun game! A little confused at the beginning but once I understand the control, I enjoyed the game

Developer

Thanks :) 

Submitted

Fun Game - Though made me Rage-Quit when I dashed to previous level... TWICE!!!

But the Idea, and the Mechanic of having a Mask to Dash is very clean! I like it!

Developer

Yeah some levels sadly can be dashed through and you fall to previous levels. I guess i should call it a feature not an error (like one of the biggest game company said once xd) as a title says it can be glitchy :D
