Super fun game!! It looks so great, I liked the puzzles. I think going back to ur checkpoint after interacting as a ghost was a bit weird since I had to walk back to the place I interacted with. But I had a lot of fun! Amazing job!!!

Developer

Thank you for playing, and for your feedback! :)

I like how the game look very much, it looks polished. The puzzles are easy, but I think the health system does prevent the player from trying out stuffs a bit.

Developer

Thank you! We've had some similar feedback, so that's definitely something we'll be looking into!

I honestly had a very good time, very good puzzle platformer that fits the theme perfectly, and props on the level design, to me it was just the right amount of what the heck am I supposed to do here into - Ooooooh it was in front of me the whole time.

Also really love the background art, Super impressive.

Amazing entry.

Developer

Thank you so much! :)

What a fun, cute little game! The gameplay was very smooth and the art and music was so lovely! I can definitely play this for hours! Well Done!

Developer

That's such a huge compliment, thank you!

A very charming puzzle/platformer! The music was good without becoming repetitive, the visuals were great, the puzzles were not overly complex, but not brain-dead either. Overall, very good use of the theme! One thing to note: the final orb can be collected out of ghoast form. Idk if this was an intentional mercy, so if the player was low on lives they wouldn't get softlocked, or if it was a bug, but just wanted to make sure you were aware of it in case of the latter! Great job!

Developer(+1)

I think we left it in as a mercy so that if you got to that stage with only one life left it didn't feel bad haha. Thank you for playing, and your review!

Nice game! Puzzles were good and the art was very smooth, it reminded me of hollow knight / Ori and the Will of the wisps, very cute! Overall a neat experience, well done :D

Very fun puzzle platformer with charming visuals. It handles the theme pretty well even if its not the most unique idea in the jam. Good job!

Really fun!! I loved trying to figure out the levers, English reading? No. Binary counting for the win!!

Developer

Haha, creative way of solving! Thank you :D

This was AMAZING! It's so well made and has so much potential for a full game- not to mention that it was adorable, too!

cute lil goat dude. got stuck in ghost form after stepping on a bramble, pressing R did nothing


EDIT ok I was able to find the thing to interact with to progress. It's not that clear what to do when you die far away from the thing you want the player to do. Maybe add a little wisp to guide the player after not moving for a couple seconds


There's lots of backtracking from your spawn points to where you were before when you did the thing


Not sure the lives system is necessary, pretty frustrating to have to start again.


I reached the end with a key missing and now I have to slowly walk back through the level to look for the missing key. Keys should either be optional or make them less easy to miss.


Walking back over the spawn points doesn't replenish your lives so now I have to try to stay alive so I don't need to repeat the whole game to see the ending

Cool game

Developer

Thank you for the feedback! Yeah we definitely have a few sore points to iron out haha.

This was adorable! The graphics were so polished, especially for the time period (that water shader was very neat), and the environment really had strong hollow knight vibes. Sometimes it was a bit annoying to go through the same parts of the map over and over for parts where you were required to die and respawn, but that was more of a 'me being impatient' issue than anything else. The menus, lighting, and transitions really made this feel like a finished, polished game. Great work!!

Developer(+1)

Thank you for playing! It's a common piece of feedback that we get so I don't think it's just you haha. Thanks very much <3
