Love the horror pixel art visuals and atmosphere and just the general feel of the game, the environment is especially detailed for a game jam game, the amount of assets is mind-blowing to be all made in just 48 hours! Reminds a lot of older rpg maker horror games, which is a good thing. I love how every level explores a different idea using the core mechanic rather than repeating one or two ideas throughout ten levels, it makes the game the perfect pace for a game jam game! I wasn't a fan of the level where you could fall off though, it didn't really require any thinking or exploration of the environment, it can be way too easy to fall the edge, and it didn't properly introduce its new timer mechanic so I was confused for a good half minute. I would love to know about the story behind this game, it seems pretty cool so the story would be the number one thing I want to see expanded in the full game.

Also it seems you aren't on the GMTK discord, you should really join it if you want more people to play your game and rate it: https://discord.com/invite/pd4rQKU

Really love the atmosphere, the sound effects fit really well to create the scary ghost vibes. Although it's short the ending is very good with the walls closing in. I personally don't see how it fits the theme, but overall a really good game. Great job!

ah I had the same problem that commenter "Regorius" had about trying to extract it in Windows 10. However I then tried using 7zip instead of Window's default extraction method and that actually worked and let me obtain the game. :>

Very pleasant graphics made for this. Definitely my favorite part.  Little ghost friend. :>

The controls and menus and most things in general were very easy to read and get a handle of. The only part that was any struggle was the room full of pits where the mechanics of the soul world changed. The cliff edges were very unforgiving in their hit detection and the sudden new addition of the timer was a bit hard to notice at first. Once I did notice it though it became much easier to get what was wanted from me there so it wasn't too bad but it was notable little rough spot.  

I had a pleasant time throughout though mostly so thank you for that!
