nice little arcade game. And you added 2 player mode as well never messed with it just noticed it in the player controls. The kick back on the gun lead to some interesting bouncing around all over the place added some fun times for sure.

Alone In The Dark(Temp Name)Holy crap this was amazing!
At first I wasn't understanding what happened to me when I shot and if I should evade enemies. But when it all made sense it was one heck of a pinball ghost trigger happy action!
The presentation is top notch, loved the sprites and the sound effects. All very cohese. I would just like some soundtrack to accompany it. It felt deserving of a catchy tune!
One doubt I had from looking at the menu in-game, does it support 2 players? I don't have a player 2 right now but it would be damn fun!
My only complaint would be the skull enemy that comes from above sometimes seem to move too fast compared to others, so it is sort of the hardest one for me, but that's about it.
This was very, very fun. Congratulations and thank you!

Shotgun of SoulsHi and thanks for the review! There's sadly not 2 player support in the game. The "engine" I use, pico-8, is a fantasy console with some major restrictions to encourage making small, retro-style games. That menu you just saw was the default pico-8 menu every project gets automatically. But your post made me think, and 2 players support sounds super cool! I might steal that idea for a post-jam update ; )
That game as temper! The controls are nice and the audio and visuals cues are awesome! It's really fun to shoot everywhere with a certain satisfaction about shooting like a maniac :D
Very well polished and mastered game, well done!

Rock Paper Shotgun!The game player is so addicted. The UI and art style is so gooooooooood. i love how you make this game like it's in old game boy, but i think the health of the grave should be more than this. Nice!!

Four Nights at GhostVilleIt's very well designed, the art is good, the gameplay is fun and the sound effects are also good, the only thing is that at first I thought I couldn't cancel the constant bounce.

Ghost ShotNice retro arts and funny game play. At the first start, it's a little unclear how to start the game. Good job!

Serious IvanI like the game, really cool concept however I don't like the controls but maybe that's because I'm to used to WASD Left click etc

Phantom LimbWhat a great use of a shotgun! I love how it feels like you are spraying bullets everywhere. I found angled shots worked best. This game has a wonderful arcade feel with simple controls. I think it's a really unique spin on the theme and limitation so far from what I've played.

Shooty GhostVery cool game. Loved the art. The whole thing reminded me of Downwell, which is always a good thing.
