How does your game meet GBJam's theme?
First, the game is made with GB Studio and has a GameBoy build.
We can play 3 characters which are a ghost, a poltergeist and a vampire. Hidden in a crypt. In a cemetery. In a silent village with full moon as background. That should be spooky enough ! :p

A short but sweet game! I really liked the character switching and the story was nicely done, it really made me want to play more!

I really enjoyed it, the story is captivating, I really want to continue playing and complete it later.

Great game to play!  Definitely would have been enhanced by a little music (but also understand composers can be tricky to find!) - controls were easy to understand and I loved being able to jump straight into the story.  Awesome work!

Really nice game, it's a shame about the music, which would have made the experience even better. Still, great job!

Unlucky for the composer…

It is a shame about the audio, or lack there of, but otherwise an enjoyable game and narrative, I really liked the art style and the ending, shame we didn't get to see the transformation lol

I loved the character switching mechanics! I wanted to have more stuff to do to play with it. :) The writing is nice, it’s just missing some audio.

nice work. very much enjoyed the ending! the character switching mechanic is good, and it would have been nice to have a few more things to do with it, but as proof of concept its solid. shame it didn't have any audio.

Thanks! And yeah, I agree that the lack of audio is a big issue. We focused on the dialogues and cutscenes instead. Lesson to learn here: don't feel bad to integrate music samples, even if it's temporary, instead of wanting to do it yourself absolutely!

That's jam life! There's always something that needs to be sacrificed!
