Pretty fun !! you should play Lichbolt the uncareful, it's a similar concept and also well executed

Very fun and cool concept! Enjoyed it a lot although graphics may have lacked in some parts. Loved the WR feature, but maybe decrease its opacity so you can still see the game through it?

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I'll fix that in the post jam version!

Couldn't get anywhere near the world records, but great balance between the fast pace and tight controls.

Really liked your game, I am coming here to play another round, fantastic game. Man to Ghost style for progression really fits the theme well to, failure is progress :)

I really liked it. Full marks on creativity and simplicity. Although I would've loved to see you implement more than just one failure type and random container for sounds. They get a bit repetitive. The tracker for WR is a nice touch! Kudos and good luck.

This is amazing work. That feeling when you miss the platform and die, but instead of beeing punished you get even stronger because u get superpowers as a ghost is priceless. Well done! Plz rate my game as well !

Developer

Just rated your game, I really liked it!

Great game. I manage to get all WR and got the cutscene ending. Good Job :)

Wonderful! I adored it! But the ghost is sooooooooooo painfully slow!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! The Ghost is suppose to be slow to discourage players from using it and trying to get as far as possible. I think I over did it a little bit so I'll try to fix that in a post jam version!

Love this concept! The sprites were really cute too and overall you nailed the platformer game feel too :)

I got all WRs on this game, its absolutely Outstanding, 10/10 Even had some lore.

Submitted

Good use of the theme! The levels were easy, but they were fun nonetheless.

Good work!

Submitted

Very cool concept! Played through it all and enjoyed it thoroughly. However none of the levels were really challenging, but I guess that's understandable for such a short time frame. The mechanics of the ghost are on point and could easily see this being explored further!
Music is fantastic as well!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback! I added in the world-record timer to add more of a challenge as I knew it wouldn't be very hard. I hoped the player would create their own challenge through trying to always lower their score.

Submitted

The mechanics are definitely fun. I think if you could expand those and add a bit more of a challenge you've got something quite good on your hands here :)

THIS IS EPIC!

Developer

Thanks!

Sweet game! It was a really REALLY smart idea to add a world record system in this game, I think it is the glue that holds the game together. Most of the levels are beatable by simply dying at the start then floating to the goal, which would've made for a boring game. But since the human is faster, there is still incentive for the players going for the speed run to stay in human form as long as possible, but not locking off the game for players who aren't that good at the game. Great job!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I really enjoyed your game too!

I absolutely LOVE this game!

Developer

Thanks! I enjoyed your game too!

Loved the gameplay and the art/sounds. Beat all the World Records haha. Loved how there's room for faster times.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I intentionally left time to make sure all the records were beatable once you figure out the trick with the level.

Submitted

Definitely one of the best games I've seen so far on this jam. Awesome job! The one and only criticism I have (and it is a very small one) is that some of the levels got repetitive. Basically you could just jump down any gap, hit the spikes, and then beat the level in a few seconds. But again, small criticism, and I don't think the game really suffered from it much.   :)

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I was aware of the problem and tried to add the "world record" system to encourage players to be strategic about where to die. In-order to get the records, you have to die in a specific place. I'll try to update the game to make that more clear in the post-jam version! Thanks again, I'll check out your game soon!

I really liked the timer / WR stuff -- a cool detail for a game jam game, and I managed to pick up a couple WRs (not that I think they'll last...). Definitely encouraged me to replay the levels a few times to get better times! That f&*&* level with the platforms is blocking me from ever finding out what's behind the "All WRs" button though...

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I'm glad you enjoyed it! I'm checking out your game now!
