There’s been a lot of weird crossover with this theme and Halloween that I’ve noticed, and this is perhaps the furthest I’ve seen it taken.

I’ll start out with my one and only real complaint: the camera is slightly tilted, and doesn’t directly translate to WASD movement. This is a little confusing at first. I would either make the player move camera-relative or tilt the camera to match the absolute direction again.

After you get used to this, the game is essentially a perfect small arcade title. The presentation is flawless and the art assets are incredibly well done.

I love the gameplay mechanic of skeletons colliding with each other as it fits perfectly with the cartoony aesthetic. The fact that your high score is persistent and kept between sessions is also a nice touch. I also found the difficulty to be chaotic, but very manageable until your mistakes start piling up. The way they speed up when you get close is an interesting way to make them just a bit more dangerous, but thanks to their poor turning speed deaths never feel unfair.

This was an incredibly well put together entry. I would get this on the App Store and Google Play ASAP. Make some extra stage layouts and maybe an extra rare enemy type, just MAYBE some kind of temporary powerup, and you’ve got yourself a commercial game ready to go.
