A fun little game with a clever mechanic! I think, for two days especially, this is a pretty solid start of a good game. I would agree with aleziz below, the gravity is a bit high which leads to some really weird ghost interactions. Good job though!

Developer

Thank you!

What kind of “really weird ghost interactions” did you encounter?

Submitted

I had the ghost drop down on top of the player in the first level a couple times, so i was essentially balancing it on my head. The other levels I didn’t have any problems though! 

Developer(+1)

I don’t think the high gravity is causing any trouble here, it’s mostly the way I implemented pushing that create unintuitive behaviors when there is something over something. But thank you for your feedback. I will have to fix this or prevent it from happening.

Simple and fun, but the level with multiple lader you have to jump on was a little too hard for me ahah. Congratz

Developer

Thank you. I should have reduced the amount of jumps in this level.

Simple good game. Had fun.

Developer

Thank you.

Cool concept, didnt expect to see a puzzle game in this jam, I'd like to see the gravity toned down a lil, but other than that, a good and original experience!

Developer

Thank you.

I will try to tweak physics in a post-JAM update.

Nice puzzle game :)
I liked the mechanics and the cleaver level designed you used to make the player use to it.
The last one was a bit tough, I spent at least five minutes trying to make a perfect jump in the spot... Then my brains clicked and I figured it out.
The music was nice at first, but then became a little repetitive.
I liked moving lights arounds :)

Developer

Thank you :) The music is indeed repetitive. I did not have time to make a long track, so it’s only a few seconds.
