Would love more variation to this! It was very fun and I loved the visuals to it.

I solid starting point for a game! from the levels I managed to get through I just wish there was a bit more variety, like maybe you get different kind's of ghosts that are like the different types of enemies you can find in TD games like the fast ones, buffing etc. (Or maybe there are and I just couldn't get far enough in the time I had?)

I really like the game! It was fun playing and I love the art. The idea behind the game fits the  theme perfectly. Currently I am at lvl 8 and it gets a little boring. But I understand that you couldnt add more content due to the time pressure.  Amazing game! :)

A really creative idea on the theme and the puzzle is very enjoyable!

I typically do not enjoy tower defense games, but this is a wonderful spin on the concept that I really like.

Thanks!

Just finished level 10 and really enjoyed my time with it! This is a great take on the puzzle side of tower defense, and really boils down the typically monotonous path-shaping phase of a TD game to a smart and concise gameplay loop. I think you could really build on this idea with a few more mechanics and would definitely enjoy playing more of it if you decide to!

I LOVE the concept behind this. I'm a huge fan of puzzle games and this is unique both in concept and puzzle logic. I hope you continue making this or a similar game beyond the jam, I would love to play more of it.

Thanks, I appreciate the kind comments and will consider expanding on the game in the future.

Fun game, loved the art style. I wish the ghost went faster, though. Great game.

Thanks, I definitely wish I had added a fast forward button. Ran out of time unfortunately.
