Visuals are basic but very good. Nice use of particles. I really like particles emitted when player falls in lava.

This is really good! It's a simple idea but very polished and well executed. Graphics and audio are both good. The ending is very cool also. It's clear that you put a lot of effort and thought into it. My only criticism is that the graphics are maybe a bit too simple. Great job overall!

Developer

Thank you! Maybe next time the graphics will be better 😎👍

Okay game. Maybe needs a bit more personality. The music is great, reminds me heavily of Slay the Spire.

Developer

If I had more time I could have definitely gave the game more personality, I'm glad you enjoyed the music!

Amazing game! great graphics and visuals, awesome soundtrack and sound design and great spooky atmosphere. I would say that sometime the movement felt slightly sluggish but I don't know if it was a design choice or if it was done on purpose. Overall one of the best games in the Jam.

Developer

Thank you! The movement had  little float to it as you played as a ghost, maybe I could have tighten up the controls a little more.

Spectacular game! This honestly reminds me of games I used to play on Coolmath.com. Good times back then!  All I would say is probably raise the audio a bit because I couldn't hear it as much.

Developer(+1)

I'm glad you enjoyed it! In the future I'll keep that in mind for the audio

A bit generic but very polished with nice music and graphics. Nice job!

Developer

Thank you! I do find it generic as well but it worked for the Jam 😎

Really nice! The graphics are very nice and everything is really smooth! Music and sound is very fitting and sets the mood wonderfully. My only complaint is the the Level Card remains a bit too long, I often found myself dying from having my view blocked by it.

Developer

Thank you! Perhaps this can be updated in the future.

This was an amazing game, a little bit generic, like pick up the collectibles and avoid the traps, but still a great experience, i liked hoe you implemented the theme, and its good that you have 10 or so levels. overall, a great game, especially compared to my submission. https://itch.io/jam/spooky-2d-jam-2020/rate/799486

Developer

I will say, yes the game is generic but for a Jam its all good... right?
Thank you for checking out my game!

This game was very interesting! The music was very well made and the player's movement really felt like controlling a ghost. The concept is a bit overused but it's executed well and the puzzles are not that hard either. Overall, it's a great game :)
