awesome entry. cute art and an unique concept of playing as the ghost and being "hunted" by the kids, well executed too! i had a lot of fun with this entry, as mentioned already a distraction mechanic would be pretty neat but was not needed. i found after a scare hiding next to the entrance of a room was the most effective way of evading the kids. overall a fun and charming submission, great work!
Getting caught feels a bit abrupt - it'd probably help if the exclamation mark appeared over the Unusually Vigilant Adult's head instead of the player, and was a bit easier to see in general. The lack of audio is also hurting a bit - some footsteps would probably help see them coming from off-screen. I will echo that having to restart the whole game after getting caught three times is kind of a pain. Besides that, its a fine enough game - I went back four times while writing this to try to actually finish it :]
I thought the game was a lil dark but !! Nice and simple :3
Fun little game! Nice concept and good execution. Great work.
Simple and fun. I wished there was not a life system tho, I'd rather die-and-retry the same level than to start again. Other than that, congratulations!
Fun little game. I was looking for someone who had our same idea of playing as the ghost and i found it!
Simple fun game. Enjoyed it.
Fun game! I love the art style. It would be fun if you could interact with things like the piano to distract the flashlight kids
Thank you so much! That's a great idea!
