This is so simple yet so enjoyable. I love your take on the genre. With music and (maybe) refined graphics, this could be a solid arcade-style game.

This Game was honestly addicting, the controls are fun, the artwork is charming (the player gives me Mr.Game&Watch vibes) and the game definetely made me feel like i was playing a retro gameboy game. Amazing Entry!

Cute lil' spooky game! Would be fun too see it longer with more ideas tossed into the mix, but still fun!

This is a cool idea, and good puzzle design! I was stumped by a few and had fun figuring them out :)

Well thought lvl design, great gameboy vibes and well executed all around! Well done!

I remember a game as a kid where you were a bulldozer moving boxes onto switches. This hit that nostalgia vibe quite well and moved it into the spooky theme quite well. Good job!

This is a clever twist on sokoban. Being able to push the spirits through objects was cool. The puzzles were well done and fair. I particularly enjoyed the multi-screen puzzles. Excellent job!

Nice game!   Really nice gameplay.  Maybe the SFX were a bit too loud though

Very fun puzzle game with a bit of challange to it. Took me a couple tries on some of the levels to get there. Like the grid based movement and the artstyle. The little sound effects add a lot of character to the game.

Really enjoyed this one!  A fun puzzle game that progressed as the levels went on - it took me 4 'restarts' to realize the ghosts can pass through fences (that's on me though) :D  Great work!

Very cute! I really enjoyed how everything was drawn, especially the little fire guys and how the player walks. I also think the later stages take some thinking to figure out which I thought was cool!
