great job really!!!

Really good puzzle game with nice art style and atmosphere. All tho, picking up things felt kind of janky since you can only pick up things in the direction you were moving to.

Submitted

I was impressed at the amount of levels here, and they're all engaging and challenging enough. Good job!

Really fun and stylish game! The atmosphere is great, the art and story work perfectly together. And the music? Absolutely gorgeous. The puzzle design is smart and satisfying, especially the limited-step mechanic where you really have to think through every single move. Big respect for including clear controls too, that helped a lot. Loved the whole experience!

Submitted

Very fun puzzle game! The swap mechanic gets interesting (and harder) when there is more than one body. I like how each one has their own amount of steps, it really makes you stop and think your next... "step" haha. Great game, very polished!

Submitted

Very high quality game, the puzzle design especially shines here!

Submitted

Very solid submission! The production quality is impressive, and the puzzles are interesting. It reminds me a lot of "Baba Is You". Well done!

This game is amazing for it's completeness. There's barely anything to say about it because everything is so cohesive and in tune with what this game is meant to be. If you're interested, a write-up on your process for creating and then accomplishing such a clear vision would be pretty valuable.

I really liked this game! The puzzles felt purposeful and well designed! Using a limited number of steps is also a mechanic that greatly fits the theme but has not been done by many people! Great job over all!

Make player movement faster

good game:)

That is a really fun game! It is a very creative idea, and the puzzles are all done so well! The music and sound effects fit perfectly, and the art is so clean and nice! Glad I played this one :)

Submitted

Excuse my language; but holy F, the graphics and feel is so well crafted! The atmosphere it all blends together! That is a job well F'ing done! The speed of the character was the only thing that made it a bit slow paced, but I'm guessing that in case people might mess up their steps.
-Well done!!

When i first booted up, something happened where my ghost got stuck trying to possess. I reloaded and had no issues at all. made it to the 3rd or 4th level. I liked the old school feels of it. 

Developer

Thanks for letting me know about that bug, and glad it worked after a reload. Appreciate you playing :)

Great Puzzles and beautiful art style! Always enjoy the switching bodies mechanic and this one was extremely well executed. Good Job!

If you have the time and are willing to try my game out, it would be greatly appreciated!
