Very fun game and great visuals, but player jumps not when i press space, but when i release it.

Developer

Thanks!
That's a bug from terrible jam code, just hit "R" 😅

Submitted

Cool game .

Played on stream. Interesting puzzles. The rules felt a bit loose but in general it was fun to figure out. Love the art style as well. Few glitches with the boxes appearing where I died and floating boxes but its a jam :)

Developer

Thanks! And haha, I wanted to fix those bugs, but it was getting late and it was due in the early morning. If we decide to make a full version that will be fixed :)!

A bit confusing at first, probably because i skimmed over the tutorial. I would recommend splitting the wall of text over multiple levels. People come to play, not read. The box should have gravity, I think. It's kind of weird when you drop the box in midair and it just freezes. If you're not supposed to drop it in midair, just disable it when jumping lol. Also I agree with everything IanGoGo said. Overall, honestly I think it's pretty solid, but personally I didn't enjoy it that much, not because it's bad but because I don't like puzzle games

I enjoyed how "Your brain" was listen in the controls, very funny! Overall was a fun game and I enjoyed the use of the ghost mechanic. 

If you wanted to improve, sometime it was hard to tell what I died to, I suggest adding some particle FX and a sound on the spot of death.

Overall, fun game!

It clearly satisfies the topic of the jam. I had problems understanding how the first bat enemy works.

I like the concept it reminds me of the brackeys jam where the theme was "Rewind"

Submitted(+1)

Really nice concept and execution! Good art style as well. The only problem for me is that it ran a little bit slow on the browser, but nevertheless pretty good game!

Developer

Thanks! Tried my best to get the browser performance up.. got it a bit better than it was but not enough :(

Amazing implementation! I love how this game makes you think in a specific way to move forward! It lacked some audio, other than that, loved it!

Developer

Thanks!

Very nice game! I forgot the controls quickly though. Probably just me :/

Developer

Controls are in the description if you forget. Thanks for playing!

Really clever concept! I like the animations of the character a lot! And the rocket jump is just so fun! Great job

Developer

Thanks :)

Very interesting game! It fits the theme well. Nice artwork, although somethings (like the spikes) don't contrast well. Music would have been nice to have, but not really necessary for this genre. I think that sometimes the ghost's movement gets de-synced from what the player did, but all in all, great submission!

I really enjoyed this puzzle platformer, fits the theme super well. spikes are incredibly hard to see. last level I kept trying to beat, tried like 10 times before just falling in the spikes lol.

Developer

Yeah. Think there should've been blood on them. Thank you for your feedback!

This is the kind of game I wanted to see. I really did fit the topic! Its one of the few games i managed to finish and also enjoy! There are multiple ways to finish a level, once you understand how does the ghost work. Also i discovered a bug when you jump and throw the crate in mid-air it just starts floating. But it made my experience better :3

Developer(+1)

The floating box "bug"... haha. I knew about it and how to fix it but I'm not adding gravity to a box 😅

Thank you so much for the review!

Submitted(+1)

Liked the game but it was hard to see the spikes.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback!
