Hello!
First of all thanks for your feedback!
The "ghost" is a cleaning robot which reacts to light. This means that if you point at him with your flashlight he will stop moving but beware if your torch is out he will come and get you!
Know that you only have a certain amount of batteries on the map to light up your flashlight which means if you stop moving / finishing your tasks you will surely die.
Regards
Daniel

It kinda is, we mentioned it in the "Job Offer" text you see before entering the game. But maybe it should be a bit more clear.
Our motivation for this game was "Five Nights at Freddy’s" but in 3D. I think for one developer and one artist and this short amount of time this was a bit overthinking, we should have skipped some features to have more time for the atmosphere and the feeling. I wish we had one more developer on our side tbh, this would've been great! :)
