a neat little concept! I did get stuck at one point where there was no kids to trigger the traps but i couldn't clear the level and didnt find how to reset. But a nice idea and a cool vibe, well done!

Very cute art style. Super authentic to the Gameboy limitations.

Cute game, awesome graphics. fun gameplay! Liked the gameboy vibes.

I dont think you needed to use the gameboy logo to represent the vibe you were going for for your game. Would have rathered something that feels more personal to your game.

The game is an actual Gameboy game, it will run on a Gameboy colour and I included the .rom file

Really cool game style! Art, music is awesome!

Great job and congratulations on your submission!

I really love the game’s style even if I had some problem figuring out what to do.

With how great the game’s visuals are I think it’s a big shame that you seemed to have use Gen-AI for the thumbnail and page background tough. If you did, please make sure to declare it on your page as not doing so is against itch.io’s TOS.

Developer

Hey yeah I added that when I submitted, I actually did the ghost outline myself and used gen for the background, I am ok at pixel art style but wanted a cool, more professional looking cover 

Submitted

The graphics and their implementation were consistent with the game boy limitation aesthetics! Gw

Developer

Thanks

Nice! I ha one bug: no one spawns afte 1:40 in the third stage (purple ground). Didi you use AI to make the Game Boy cover?

Developer(+1)

Hey to complete this stage you just need to scare away boss kid, not sure I have seen the glitch but I play tested on analog pocket and a Gameboy color. I found a Gameboy box cover template, used AI for the background and the ghost was my own.

A simple but well executed game, really loved the colors and the style

Very cute!

That's a nice little game, the art style is cute, the gameplay is simple but works well, the story/setting is cool too! My only real criticism is about the thumbnail, you made such cool art for your game, I hope the thumbnail was by you too. 

Good job

I found the controls a lil hard but it was really cute!

Pretty cool little gameboy game! At first I thought you had to press something to interact with the candy, then I realise you just need to walk through them to collect.

Here's my playthrough of your game! It's at the 13:29 mark of this video. 

Developer

That's awesome thanks

I love the game's retro graphics and sound. The game's also pretty creative as well, which was the best part about this game! I did find it weird that the boss on the final level was clipping through the buildings and the walls, though. Is he secretly a ghost in disguise? o_O

Posted my game for the Jam, You play as a cheeky ghost who wants to keep the candy on Halloween, haunt objects to scare trick or treaters. check it out

Cute art and I like the page design! I tried to play in-browser but all I could do was wiggle the ghost on the screen that told me to press "A". Pressing "A" just changed the ghost sprite.

Developer (1 edit)

Your supposed to press A to posses an object for example in the intro the tree, then a kid shows up and the tree animated and the kids runs away and drops sweets, once you pick em up you complete that stage.

Good art; I like how you approached this project. I noticed the controls for the ghost might feel wonky, but it's fine...

Submitted

well done, i like the overall gameplay and sounds!

Developer

Thanks
