This was an incredibly fun game, and one of my favorites by far! I loved playing as all the different creatures to solve the puzzles, and how each creatures was Halloween themed for the spooky month! I'm a huge fan of puzzle games, so I may have a bit of bias, but this game is getting one of my highest ratings yet! Spectacular job, and I hope to see more from you in the future! <3 

P.S., I'm a monster ;-;

Wow, what a review! Thank you so much, both for playing and for your comment :) I'm really happy that you liked it!

Had a lot of fun! The puzzles are satisfying. I think I froze the game by becoming the last big dude and hitting my little guy’s original body

Developer(+1)

Im glad to hear it! At least the game didn't crash until the very end, haha! :D

This was alright. I like the GameBoy Color approach.

I enjoyed this. Could def use some polish, but really really enjoyable!

Developer

Thank you kindly for your comment and for playing!

Really neat idea!  I worry that the switching for puzzles might start to feel a bit tedious if this were expanded but it never quite felt that way with its current length.

Hey I finally got around to playing this. I'm the guy who made the art for Spikes and switches. Im happy that you were the first to comment on our game :3

I was debating on giving the theme a 4 or 5 and i decided on 5. Idk if my opinion will change since this is the first game ive played on the submission, but when i turned into the bat i was like "OH MY GOD, GENIUS!" I have to give the theme a 5. 

Also I encountered a bug where i apparently skipped part of the level where I hit the switch with my sword even though i didnt break the wood? 

Developer

Oh that is definitely a bug, haha! Or at least a speed run tactic ;)  Thank you so much for playing and rating!

Fun game! I got the ending. Well scoped for a game jam attention span, I appreciated the puzzles and thought the art and experience was cute and fun

Love it! The bridge puzzle was really smart and the walking animation on the pumpkin guy is so groovy!

Submitted(+1)

wasn't expecting a GBC style game, cute!

Submitted(+1)

Really cool game, the idea is so creative and is executed really well, part of me wishes it wasn't so short because I wonder how far the concept could go puzzle wise. Overall an awsome game!

Developer

Did you get through the boss and still thought it was too short? :D That is a really nice compliment, thank you for playing! 

Submitted (1 edit) (+1)

I did, loved it, was one of those "wait can I? nooo... omg I can" moments XD but yeah, wish it was longer but thats not your fault, you were given a short development time

Developer(+1)

Haha, I was afraid I made the game too long! :D maybe I can add some more levels in the future

Fun mechanic. I think I managed to break the game by shooting the bomb lever a second time after killing the big guy. Whoops.

Developer(+1)

Oooh you were so close to the ending! You missed out on possessing the big guy and escaping the dungeon. 
I made the boss fight last night and must have missed to set the bomb to only trigger once :D 
Im really glad you made it that far,  thank you for playing and for finding the bug! 

Submitted(+1)

Very interesting mechanics and interpretation of the theme. Super creative game. Awesome work!!

Submitted(+1)

You actually got me there. It took me a while to discover the ending. Good level design, fitting audio, and an overall great game!

Developer

Thank you for playing, and congratulations on winning! :D Was it a bit unclear what to do after the boss was defeated?

Submitted(+1)

5/5 across the board. I loved the music, the art style, and the creativity, and it was a lot of fun and very on-theme. You did some great environmental storytelling and didn't blatantly paint where the player should go, trusting them to figure stuff out instead. Great work!

Developer

I appreciate your comment so much, it really means a lot! I'm happy you liked it, thank you!!

This game of loads of fun! I really enjoyed it, especially the problem solving aspect of it!

If you get the chance, please do give my game a look over. 

Developer

Thank you for playing! 

I tried downloading your game, but I couldn't play it. I guess I need unity installed?

Submitted

I am really sorry. I never uploaded anything before, so I wasn't sure how it worked.  If you still want to try it, I have updated the file now and it works :)

Fun little game!

the soul can't go on the bridge from the side, and you can't die while the bridge is moving, but other than that, worked perfectly. Good job.

Developer

Thank you for playing! I spent so much time fixing bugs with the bridge so I figured it was easiest to disable dying while it was moving, haha! :D
