Your pixel art is lovely. I'm going to be studying your tree.  That's what I was trying to do in mine!  The gameplay is really interesting.  A cool way to sort of teach/learn color theory.  Took me a minute to figure out what I was supposed to be doing though.  Not the focus of the game, though.  Great job all around!

I played this on stream and left feedback throughout my time with the entry if you didn't get a chance to watch the playback yet. I really enjoyed the art and gameplay. It was a nice comfy experience after a couple hours streaming, so it hit the spot perfect. Great work. Looking forward to see what you do next round.

Such a nice little game! the art was really cute and I liked the mechanic of having to mix the ghost color and the lantern color to make the ghost happy. plus the water shader you used was really nice

I really liked the concept and the art. The game did feel a little slow paced and too easy though.

I like the idea but I think it's quite simple. The gameplay felt quite slow and there wasn't much that kept you interested, but the concept is very interesting. Great job.

I think you did a nice job on style, the reflection and background fit quite nicely. Walking felt a bit slow, but I still made it to the end to see the whole level (also wasn’t quite sure how I got the spirits home). Made me think of spiritfarer, fun title too.

(Sidebar, I appreciate the mac build)

its alright. the lack of tutorial made it hard to figure out what to do but once i figured it out it was kinda cool. i like the aesthetic of the town, but the location itself imo is super generic.
