very nice! also I'm trying to spread the word about my game! so it would be great if every body could check it out! (and maybe even rate it!)

This is really great! I loved how polished everything is, the animations and UI were incredibly well thought out and worked great. I also love that unleashing a ghost isn't an immediate game over, you can still dance around them.

I found that there's some luck involved though. I was doing a large level and all the paths forward had a ghost in them. There wasn't much I could do then. 

Even outside the jam this game is really up there, I'd love an expanded version!

I really like the concept. And the menu was so fun. Very well done!

Incredible game! I love it! Visuals were great, music and SFX fit well, feels very replayable.  The only issue I have is that some levels don't feel possible to win, or its very easy to just get stuck and cornered by a ghost with nothing to be done about it. Maybe I just need to get good. 

Fantastic job!

Thanks so much! The thing about getting cornered was meant to be part of the challenge, so that you have to plan your exit strategy before risking to unleash a ghost :)

Ah! Sounds like I just wasn't planning far enough ahead oops.

I also made a game inspired by Minesweeper but yours is for sure a lot more fun than mine! Great game, awesome sounds and visual effects, and very polished for a jam (even with 2 languages!). Would be a great fit for a mobile game!

Very nice game feel, the levels are randomly generated based on the difficulty that we chose right ? That's a nice feature. Even the easy one was a bit too hard for my haha
Very nice job

I don't know, the basement seemed pretty haunted to me! Nice concept, exploring the basement.
