Well talk about subversion, this game is all about it! You see, by choosing to die, you win the game! This was obviously a gimmick game, so I won't comment on how the story should be improved or gameplay should be expanded, because you knew the type of game you wanted to make. I would just encourage continuing to polish your skills so next time when you want to make a joke game, also include some other mechanics than just running around. Good job!

well-written story setting that compliments with the game mechanics which also fits well with the limitation given. Neat game to play!
the quit button says "OUIT"
nice music and art. though the map could you some sprinkle of anything that indicates you're moving. feels a little empty when you out run the ghosts.
I agree with luthfan fikri. if you would just leave out the prompt saying "i should avoid the ghosts" really the player himself would be lied to by his own mind rather than being lied to by the game. would make the realization of the twist much more satisfying instead of disappointing,
Fun; short n sweet with a lil twist.
I like the glow effect and the cover art was ridiculously beautiful.
Hey, nice game ! can you tell me more about the bloody pant ? :)
A good idea to start, but it's a bit wasted imo. Rather than telling players "hey don't touch ghost", you should make player assume that the ghost is dangerous with props or npc's dialogue.
Right now, the one who lied is not player or their brain, but the game itself.
