Nice idea! It's a bit annoying that you have to click twice to possess something.
for a first jam good job! really liked the levels and the meccanic! hope to see you next jam too!
It's a good idea, just need more levels and a lot more polish, the music was great and the graphics were really cute in my opinion. Nice work!
Considering this was our first jam game, that's a big compliment. Thank you so much for playing!
This is really good for a first jam lol, especially since I left wanting more!
I was confused and I didn't know what to do even after reading the instructions below the game. A little more explanation would be appreciated, ideally in game as a tutorial.
Overall nice puzzle game with Baba is you vibe. Good job!
interesting idea and realisation, very liked second level, but movement sound is a little annoying
Nice idea, very simple for now but this could easily be expanded with more levels. Good job :)
I like the music a lot!
Baba is Everything.
It's a real shame to see the other mechanics didn't make it in, I really wanted more 'aha' moments like the solution for level 2. Good decision to freeze and ship, though! Glad y'all could make it.
Nice game with simple art style! I found that I could also just possess the end goal and move it towards the player in the first two levels.
:D
Thanks for playing! That's the intended solution for level 2, actually. I don't think there's another way?
Oh, I just assumed it wasn't. Great game!
:D
Cool concept, it'd be interesting to see where this goes
At first I was like "huh?" and then I figured out that I can "haunt&possess" things and I was like "HUH!". lol
Really cool concept!
This is a really cool concept! I feel like this game has a lot of potential to be iterated on.
It was a bit difficult for me to figure out the controls at first with haunting and possessing things, would it maybe be more logical if you could possess things with just one click?
The concept is still nicely executed and it was fun to play through the 3 levels you made!
Thank you for taking the time to check it out!
I agree that we could have iterated a lot on this and I think that I'd like to spend a few days making a more finished version, if the rest of my team is willing. We have a lot of mechanics already in-game and tested that we never explore in the 3 levels. For instance, "haunt" is separated from "possess" because time actually moves at 30% speed in the "haunt" mode, which would have made multitasking puzzles more forgiving-- except that we ran out of time to make any of those puzzles and test them.
nice game
I like the concept but im confused, what does the green box do?
That's actually the level start. We didn't have time to make a puzzle that uses it, but hypothetically if an obstacle killed the player character they would respawn wherever you moved the "start box."
