Played as a spirit named BEEF so I'd say this is a 10/10 for me. This was really polished and I love the different paths. Amazing work!

Developer

Thank you so much BEEF haha. Glad you enjoyed it :)

Very polished for a jam entry, really makes you want to do several playthroughs.

Developer

Thank you! I'm glad it left you wanting to play again. I was hoping for that :)

The art style is really beautiful, story wise this is an interesting take on the gamejam's theme, and you don't usually see games with multiple endings in these kinds of events, good job!

Thank you so much!

I reallly love the concept and the story around it. The characters react really well on your actions, making it fun to replay and try new things.

Developer

Thank you for the kind words. Glad you enjoyed it!

Best submission ive seen yet! Amazing storytelling, innovative gameplay and even some replayability

5 5 5 from me on this one

Developer(+2)

Thanks so much for playing!!!

definitely one of my favorite entries for this jam so far. great art/overall presentation of course. but the thing that got me the most was the idea to frame picking dialogue options through using the ouija board. it makes you feel like you're more actively participating in the story and (possibly) even gives you an illusion that there's way more reactivity/choices in the game than there actually is. i also really liked the puzzle element and only had to "cheat" for the last question. super super fun! thank you for the experience

Developer

Thank you so much for the kind words. I'm glad you enjoyed it!

This is by far one the best games I've seen, just the game as a whole not even as a jam game. Seriously, very well done! I got way too invested.

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much!!! That really means a lot! ^^''''

absolutely loved the art and atmosphere of this game soo much i am a bit of a sucker for silly ghost media so this game was especially cool to me !!! never thought i'd have so much fun impersonating someones dead father though... 

Developer

I am so happy that people are figuring out you have to impersonate the father haha. I was worried they wouldn't. Thank you for the kind words! Glad you enjoyed it!

This is great! You really should think about extending it into a full game

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much!!! A full game is absolutely on the table!

Submitted(+2)

THis is so spooky (at least more than I'm used to lol). But not gonna lie, I feel like it could easily be extended into a bigger game, because the concept of being the ghost trying to communicate instead of the other way around is quite interesting. Great work

Developer(+2)

Thank you!! We're definitely hoping to expand it after the jam!

Submitted(+2)

Nice idea and story! I really liked it! Also the way to interact is really fun and innovative! Well done! :)

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much for trying our game out!! ^^

Submitted(+2)

honestly one of my favorite games so far, very clever use of the theme, and also great story and atmosphere. great job!

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much!! We appreciate the feedback! ^^''

Submitted(+2)

Awesome game! Unfortunately I couldn't guess where the will is but it's quite fun.

Just thought the demon hand was too strong! Hahaha Had a hard time with it.

Developer(+2)

Thank you for playing!!! We struggled with the demon hand difficulty so that is definitely something we'll be addressing after the jam, as well as more detailed clues. Thanks again for the feedback! It's much appreciated. ^^

Submitted(+2)

Great mechanic! Everything about this game was super well done, it's amazing that you managed to make it in 48 hours

Developer(+1)

Thanks so much for playing! ^^;

Submitted(+2)

I got blown away by this game! The art, the mood and the game play are on point and the story has a lot of depth told through dialog and characters. Really, really great work here!

Developer(+1)

You're too kind! Thank you so much!!!

Submitted(+2)

This is absolutely fantastic - the best I've played so far! Gorgeous art, the mechanics are original and just fits with everything that's happening here, and there's some actual deduction involved. I'd absolutely play a full version of this with expanded mechanics.

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much for playing!!

Really rich mood with a dark and ominous atmosphere! When the second hand appeared on the screen it was genuinely a bit unnerving. Well done.

Developer(+1)

Thanks so much!! Unnerving is the goal! 

Submitted(+2)

Love the vibe and the art is great, the dialogue box felt off as it was the only thing that wasn't in the game's style, but I guess that's to be expected with so little time.

The way to help them find the will was really strange and not really what I expected. Not sure how people are meant to find the cellar without trial and error.

Developer(+2)

Thanks for the feedback! We had a lot more ideas for the dialogue boxes and more clue drops but unfortunately ran out of time to implement them. Definitely something we're gonna improve upon in the future!
