The idea has lots of potential from my point. I don't understand what happens after I scare all the people. The house is empty :D GG for a jam game!

Developer

Congrats on emptiying the house (totally  didn't forget about the end screen xD)

I really like the interesting ideas when the ghost morph into different objects, and they works well with this cute art style! 

Developer

Thank you :)

Submitted

Cool idea ! Loved the specific animation for each item. If you had the time, the puzzle game dimension that you planned would have been interesting, I can also see it evolving into something were you have to scare as mush people away with the as little interactions as possible

Developer

Oh, that's an interesting idea of having to interact as little as possible, maybe I could add  it in updated version

Submitted(+1)

Cool idea, and really like how each object you morph into has its own animation/sfx.

Would like to see some puzzle elements in what to use to scare whom, and in which direction, but 48h is short :P

Developer

Exactly, 48h was a bit too short, but atleast I made something..

Submitted(+1)

I love your idea and it was such a delight to activate objects! I loved it.

If I was thinking of minimal improvements that I'd try to add before the deadline that would be a screen for the win state.

Another thing that would improve the game a little bit is tweaking the timers on people - sometimes they ran before the scare happened.

The art is consistent and good. The animations were pleasant to experience, I wish there was a full-screen mode because the game window was very small in my browser

Developer

Oh, I tottally forgot about gameover state xD, and I will make it full-screen at the end of the jam, with the update...

Submitted

I liked it, I cleaned the whole house xD would love to see this game developed further!

Developer

I certainly could develop this further...

Submitted

I like the concept, probably could lead to a bigger project. Even though I appreciate "hauting" people, I wish there could be more challenge, like for example each part being a level and you having to find out the best way to scare those people, but it probably would need more time and, well, we don't have much in those jams, right? lol
Nice try, tho, hope you keep improving on the project :) 

Developer(+1)

Unfortunateally we don't have much time, but I'm glad you liked the game anyways

Submitted(+1)

This is very cute! Some very good animations (the cat!!)
I love the concept, too, especially the full-scope version; it's a shame you didn't get to full release but congrats on getting something good out regardless!

Developer(+1)

Thank you, the cat is actually my favourite animation its so goofy and it fits the game really well, and yeah I was really tight with time, I think I made this Ai in like last hour...

Submitted(+1)

This is a sick idea.

I liked the saw reference lol

Developer

I'm glad someone finally noticed him xD

Submitted

The game didn't load in my browser, maybe it's my internet, but I left my review. Good job!

Submitted

The different scared were fun to interact with :D

Submitted(+1)

Sad that the jam only lasted 48 hours, really curious what you would come up with, with another 48 hours. The basics are fun, especially the animations :) Good job anyway!

Submitted(+1)

Very cute, I feel like this could have been a genuinely great game with some simple puzzle mechanics included similar to something like Grow Island (or the rest of the Grow X series) where u have a set number of interactables but the order u choose to engage with them makes a series of different effects. Maybe scaring one person blocks the staircase and keeps people upstairs from getting out? Overall very good work tho :)

Developer

I mean they still have a balcony, xD actually I see where you're going and that would have been a great puzzle and story-like game...but I was having something more chaotic in mind...

Submitted(+1)

This was a great concept for a game. Seeing all the ways you can scare people was pretty fun. Unfortunately, there's not really much gameplay, other than that. This has great potential though!

Developer

Well it took me a while to find a decent idea, and I overscoped on the art... but atleast I have something

Submitted(+2)

This is actually so creative! Too bad we only had 2 days, I can't imagine how many more interactable things you will create if we have more time. hahaha. Great job! 

Developer

Thanks, well maybe I would have worked on actual AI like I said in description xD

Submitted (1 edit) (+1)

Saw the description, totally relate with the overscoping. Still a fun game to try out and nice art and animations :) This can definitely be a great game with expanded features.

Developer (1 edit)

I'm glad you liked the animations, and yeah, it can always be expanded ...

Submitted(+1)

Haha great! Cool game, reminds me of bad neighbors

Developer

Thanks for playing!

Submitted(+1)

Really cute and a short game, but there's currently pretty much no challenge at all. This has definitely potential for a good puzzle game!

Developer

Thanks for playing, and yeah I know that there's no challenge for now, but I will try and update the game with better Ai post jam

Submitted(+1)

I like the concept, Nice animations. Would be fun if it was more a puzzle getting the people out of the house.

Developer

I totally agree with that there is no challenge, and I'm glad you liked the  animations

Submitted

Surprisingly fun! I loved the animations, this would make a spectacular puzzle game!

Developer

I'm glad you liked the animations and found the game fun, thanks for playing
