  • This game is really fun to play, the overall mechanics are really cool once I managed to get understand it all. It would be nice to see more of a tutorial for the items that are in game, but that might just be the old man in me getting confused. The artwork is fantastic, the detail throughout the whole game is amazing, and the animations really tie that together. The music was also very good. The GDD also deserves a mention, I love the extra details that you have added around the development process. It really helped me understand your implementation of the theme, which was very unique. Great Job!

This is a quite charming little game! The ghost is so cute, the art style and music is also nice too! The game play is not too bad, but felt slow at times, especially when during the late game where there are a lot of enemies in the scene. Fighting seems to take quite a while, and paring with the relative slow moving speed, it sometimes feels like a hassle going from room to room. (Forget to mention enemies respawn each time you enter a room too).

Anyway, this is quite a good entry in my opinion. Well done and keep up the good work!
