How does your game meet GBJam's theme?
It is a gameboy rom, and the story is about trick or treating and having your candy stolen

I loved the title screen theme, super creepy vibes! Really interesting mechanics, shoot then grab. Really cool, well done!

Thanks a lot! The mechanics were actually inspired by Ghostbusters II for the Gameboy, although we made some adjustments. They had the friendy AI character doing the "grabbing" part, but I thought that was a bit frustrating sometimes since you can't directly control the movement of that character. Still it's a fun game though so I would recommend it if you like these mechanics!

nice to see a gbdk/zgb game on the list! awesome job on the music and sfx, nailed the gameboy soul vibe!

Developer

Thank you! I'm really glad you liked the music. I knew I didn't have time to come up with complicated melodies so I kept the notes simple but tried to use interesting sounds instead.
