Amazing sprites and animations! The OG palette is the best one I think. The gameplay is fun, maybe the ghost form should be a liiitle faster? I really enjoyed it! Good work!!

Very nice entry!
Impeccable work on the tiles and the ghoul's walk cycle. I also love how the light sources affect the scene!
Can't wait to see where you take this one!
The art is extremely good! The controls and collisions feel a bit clunky, especially since the mechanics are a bit hard to guess. You should add a sound or a visual effect once a task is complete.
Oh, and excellent pun for the game name. :]
really pretty game! a little frustrating to have to deal with the guy and the mechanics don't feel very easy to understand but the game itself feels nice to play and the graphics are really really well done, great job
gorgeous game! loved the entire vibe and all the color palettes were lovely! i got a lil bug where i kept picking up the bike/ scaring the kid and at one point after picking the bike up again, it was no longer in my hands but i was still in the carrying animation and the bike just kinda flew to the kid. it was cool.
Lovely art style and gameplay, I wish there was some feedback for when you complete a task on your list. Looking forward to see more content! Solid entry, congrats!!
This is great! The starting area really reminded me of when I started playing Untitled Goose Game years ago :')
I really like the graphics and soundtrack! Good work!
A really great idea! The art and music are fantastic and I can really see the potential! With more tasks and proper feedback for completing the tasks it will be amazing.
I really enjoyed the graphics ! I'm not sure what I was supposed to spell at the end however :p
Really like the art. When I made it to the graveyard I spelled "CANDY RICK" and hoped it would summon my friend, Candy Rick.
Love it! I wish there were more areas to explore and people to scare.
Also apparently I don't know how to spell. I did try "TREE", but that didn't check it off the list. What am I supposed to spell out? :D
Thank you for playing! Yes there was/is lots more content planned and we're hope to release an expanded and more fleshed out version for Halloween.
As for the spelling: I totally missed that tree would be something valid to spell. I don't want to spoil it here just in case someone reads the comments first, but I'll have to rename the task to something like "Spell out a 12 letter phrase" and additionally to the hints in the game potentially add the hint "Halloween"
Conceptually I appreciate this game very much! Though I felt like there was no progression for fulfilling the tasks yet? Either way, I was still entertained by the ghoul getting scared into becoming a ghost and going out of bounds.
Nice art style, well animated, I like the detail with the ghoul sprite lighting up under the streetlight.
