Nice music choices.  And I really like the concept.   Fun game.  I'd play even more if it had more levels.  It was more amusing when I realized that subtle little things weren't going to cut it.  Much better to spam those containers open/close to spook them!

Cute! Enjoyed it a lot!

It is a simple game, but it is such a fun game! I like how many options there are to spook and how you need to press a lot of times to scare them, just like the "real ghosts" turning lights on and off like crazy haha

Great work!

Now I know how I want to spend my afterlife. :)

Great concept. I think with a little tweaking you could have something special. Perhaps find some kind of penalty for spamming the scare button, and having the AI do more interesting things. Nicely done!

I love the concept. Good job.

I love the concept of this game, fantastic idea, very impressive! I do long for the unwanted guest to 'freak out' more as I'm repeatedly shaking the bookcase right in front of them. I hope you add more to this game over time! Cheers for this, great work!

Nice game! The artwork is really cute.

This is cute. I want more of it... More ways to spook. More people moving into my house to spook. And a more fleshed out spooking system.

Nice! I really liked the concept of this game. I think it would've been nice to have some indicator of what things you can interact with but I also sort of liked exploring the rooms and seeing what I could. I lost the human player maybe having him a different color would be better so he doesn't blend in, in the shadows.
