I feel like I got pretty close to beating the boss, I got to the part where it shot blasts in a square formation. I appreciate that it saves which phase of the fight you've gotten to after dying. I think this would be more enjoyable if the player-to-boss attack speed ratio was higher and maybe up the ghost count just a little. Still fun though, and clever concept, nice job!

Loved having a big ol' army of me. Fun top down shooter. That music did get a little annoying after some time, but enjoyed the big boss battle vibe.
Great submission spot on with the jam theme, music and gameplay. Well done
This is genius! I couldnt beat the boss tho I only got to stage 2 lol.
Here's my game: https://foxfire-games.itch.io/cave-escape
Very funny concept. It was very cool when I had to use past self to get rid of ennemies.
Great concept, the art and music made it feel very much like a fever dream
Now thats a take on a loop i haven't seen before - solid idea! wish the game had more enemies so there would be a bigger challenge. nice work!
the idea is really fun, did get repetitive tho when i was at 60 ghost in the final stage.. ghost/10
This game was sick visually and mechanically. Really clever to have your past selves helping you out. Awesome!
This game was really fun and I loved the art. It was really unique and atmospheric
I played this for longer then I should have! Overall it is a good game, though the whole time loop mechanic may have been done a bit too much for this jam.
i love the central conceit and the jarring psychedelia elements, i can feel my divine link severing more and more every time i ring
