Fun couch multiplayer concept. I love how the theme is built right into the mechanics. The jump physics feel quirky in a good way, and riding/bouncing off the ghost to reach the top is a great moment. Would love to see this expanded with more varied level layouts post-jam. Nice work!
Amazing game!
I really like the game, the controls and movement for red are great very unique
Peak game to play with multiple friends.
The jump physics are unquie
10/10
Cool idea for a couch multiplayer competitive experience - would be cool to see bigger levels, different maps and level designs, perhaps being able to shoot out/fling boxes with the ghos for a trickshot! Reminds me of Crawl in the couch competition experience :) Very creative!
Cool game, Wish i had a friend.

Nice, I always like a couch co-op/competitive game.
Really nice chill tones, and sfx.
I would love taller boxes to escape out of, and also I think there is something fun about making the ghost and you end up needing to work together.
I had a lot of fun having my red guy jumping off the ghost and essentially riding him around to get to the top of the box.
Great showing!
