I love Halloween and everything about it so I thought the was a super cute game. Great aesthetic, very spoopy. Really fun and clever use of the game jam theme/ focus. The idea of giving compliments and saying nice things to your enemy to gain back HP was a nice touch! I wish candy revived me like that in real life lol.
My suggestions:
- Have a button to autofill text in conversations so you can fill in text when you're a fast reader/ skip through if you've already read it. (I got stuck in a convo I already had - woops!)
- Extend the text box to include your character portraits :)
- Add a "How to Play" section.
- Add some music! :)
All in all awesome job making this in a week! Keep up the good work!
