The art is really cute! I was surprised at how detailed the story element was. I really like the concept of crafting the clothes that the ghosts wore so you could talk with them.
I agree with others that the controls were strange. I also had an issue with the text not fitting in the dialogue box until I went in to fullscreen mode. The same happened with some menus like the journal and crafting. You could fix it by going in to your Project Settings > Window tab and setting the Stretch mode to canvas_items, but it may alter your camera's view by doing that. Just takes some tweaking to get things looking good on multiple resolutions.
Great job!
Thank you so much for your feedback and tips, I'll take that on board :) !!
adorable game! the art was really nice and I loved how you interpreted the theme. I do agree that the controls were a little difficult and think changing I and J to maybe E and R would make it easier. Overall great job I had a lot of fun! I'll keep an eye out for future updates!
Thank you so much for your feedback and I'm so glad you enjoyed playing!! I will tAke your control suggestions on board! :)
I like the atmposhere and visual style of the game! Feels like a little adventure with plushies or something hehe. There is some dialog where the text exceeds the text box so I cant see part of it cause my window zoom was too small at first lol. The story was pretty interesting! I like the mystery and the puzzle aspect. I ran out of thread and had to refresh to try the other graves lol. All in all an adorable and fun game! Great work!
Thank you SO much for your feedback !! I'm so glad you enjoyed it, and that's the vibe you got from it, that's the vibe I was going for! and yes you're totally right I'll try to fix that text box in a future update. Ah haha I wondered if that running out of thread problem would happen to anyone, could be improved by making thread repopulate somehow. Thank you :)
Nice work.
I loved the art style and the music set an excellent mood. I liked the idea of the game, solving mysteries, talking to ghosts, crafting items. I found it strange that I could still move around while talking to people, and the controls were unintuitive the whole way through. DA to move and IJ for interactions, and then arrow keys for selecting. I was moving my hands around a little too much.
Otherwise, cute game and I loved your take on the theme and object. It was very original.
Good luck with the jam!
