i really like your game idea and the atmosphere created by your great pixel art and spookie soundtrack, but there is something i don't understand. Most of the time when i do the right attack (ex: scissors vs paper) it doesn't play the "good sound effect" but the "wrong sound effect" and the hero takes damage. Is there something i missed?

This game looks very nice but I couldn't figure out how to play it :/
The first arm that hangs from the ceiling is a paper, so I choose scissors, but I still lose... then I also lose because I passed by what looked like a cabinet with hairs (?) sticking out of it?  No idea what to make of that...

if that's some sort of bug that get fixed, let me know and I'll try again ^^

Yeah there are some bugs that happened the last day that need patching: “it’s easier to break the entire game than to code one mechanic” - Isaac Newton (not really xD). And thanks for saying it looks nice, us artists appreciate it :3

Yeah absolutely, the way you did the character losing health/sanity and shaking and sweating was really clever and immersive to make me cringe whenever he got hurt!!!

The character design is so expressive! Excellent presentation overall, congrats!

Thank you! I really had a lot of fun making him really goofy xD

Like the visual design of this game a lot! I am in agreement however that it'd help to have some more clear audio/visual indicator of success vs failure when it comes to each face-off.

We´ll get it noted down for future games! Lots of love from the art department too! <3

The whole concept / design is really cool. The artstyle is really unique too. Nice one!

Much appreciated! <3

The flashlight effect was cool and the graphics were fun and spooky. I think I was pushing the right buttons to play rock/paper/scissors, but I got a sound that made me feel like I was wrong every time. Showing what the ghost played against me would have been nice. Or maybe showing how many times I had lost somewhere on the screen would have helped. The main character was really cool looking. You should keep it and use it again in future games.

Yeah, that was something we missed so, whoops! And, between you and me, the main character was “also used” in another game where I did the art called “Coins Only!”. Thanks a lot for playing!!! <3

I'm a bit confused by how the move is supposed to work. I was using the arrows to direct the light towards the hand, so I couldn't really press the arrows to play paper. Also the sound effect seemed to indicate that I chose the wrong move every time, yet I could still continue playing

Thank you for playing! And for pushing through these details X,)
