Nice game! Good job!

Which architect would put light switches in such locations? :P

I would have wished that the light switches were in different randomized locations each round you play. :)

Developer(+1)

Haha thank you! The randomized locations sounds like a cool idea. At first we put the switches near the doors, but it was quickly obvious that it would be so unfun haha

A really nice and short game.

I can imagine that it would be even more fun with more puzzles, like moving the boxes around to get into a room (building a bridge, clearing a path, and so on).

I like the general style of drawing. There is not enough animation of water in the bathroom.

It was really cute! I really liked what you did here, so simple, great execution! Might sleep with my light on tonight... :)

I'm usually a scaredy-cat, but thanks to the pokemon-like graphics i loved playing this game haha

The music is so cool and the gameplay is simple and efficient. For me it's perfect, i hope to see more later.

I don't have a lot to add to that, but i want to say that teleporting the ghost when buttons are pressed was a great way to stop the game from getting "stalematy", and that it would be cool to see more levels in the future.

Thank you for your feedback! We're also looking forward to improving the game a little after the jam :)

First game I tried, but I only just realized that I forgot to leave a comment:

Quite satisfying overall. Good music, comfy artstyle, interesting gameplay, the boxes are a really nice touch. Could be more challenging tho 馃槒

Hahaha, ok, this one was really funny! Great idea and solid exectution! If I was Hector I would not be able to sleep after this experience though... :D

Developer

Haha thank you! We're very happy with how this turned out, despite barely making it in time lul

Cool game, and the ghost changing locations when the light is turned off is awesome for some suprise

I enjoyed the game. Good idea to add the boxes :)

Developer

YES! Boxes were basically a free mechanic, because I made them randomly while waiting for another thing to finish, and it actually worked like a charm. We should've included more of those in the level design. Thank you :)

I quite enjoy the game, and how you use the jam theme.
I think reposition/reinstantiate the ghost when we press a new button was a smart decision, other wise they always come to us from door side which would makes it less fun and more challenging.
I love how intuitive the game is. Almost every house have a button for room light, and that button is on the wall. Also, using one of the most universal fears, fear of darkness, is another great move. I did understand what I need to do after my first attempt to switch-off my room's light.

A small note on audio, you could set your audio source's spatial blend setting to zero (2D) to make background music consistent in every point of house.

Developer

Thank you for your feedback. Indeed difficulty is something we didn't have time to balance out. Also thank you for the audio source comment, I noticed this only after uploading the game, and indeed I misused this in Unity. I'll make sure to fix this after the jam!

I like this game, especially the background music. The game is not hard but it is very enjoyable!

(+3)

I loved the game! it was well made although the difficulty spike isint very hard so maybe add a ghost or 2? or maybe add diffrent types of ghosts

Submitted(+4)

Cool game! Liked the art style and the music. Maybe you could add a second ghost for more challenge?

Developer(+1)

Thank you for your feedback!

Indeed the challenge isn't really there, especially if you replay the game multiple times. We originally planned to add the challenge in the way of making the ghost faster or adding more obstacles, but that fell out of our scope during the jam haha. More ghosts would also be a viable option for sure.

Very nice game. Short and sweet. Good mechanics.
