really like this game. the shadows that show your previous attempts are cool but kinda distracting. so idk how you can keep the replay shadows without being distracting.
Was kinda annoying when the ghosts don't follow your position but this was a cute little puzzle game with some neat aha moments! Wish there was audio for sure, but the puzzles are pretty dang interesting, the kind of concept that has a lot of promise to it.
This was pretty fun, and I like the concept. Unfortunately like some others, I got stuck on Level 3.
Really cool concept! Unfortunately, the ghosts being inconsistent makes it pretty difficult to play (I gave up at level 2). If you fix that bug and add some audio, I'm sure it will turn into something great!
I actually enjoyed this quite a bit! The puzzles were well designed and I managed to beat all of them. Sadly, levels 3, the physics are a bit weird and hard to work with. Not to mention the ghost sometimes don't repeat your position properly. Keep learning gang.
Wow thanks alot! I think you're the first person to beat them all outside of personal friends. A lot of people had problems with level 3. Makes me wanna fix the issues and add a couple levels.
Nice concept! i had fun i did get stuck though
Cool idea, and I couldn't figure out level 3 too I thought you had to get the boxes over there xD. But sadly even after knowing the solution I wasn't able to execute it
Thanks for playing! Sorry about that, the ghost keeps getting caught on terrain there.
I assume you are recording the movements for the ghosts, as opposed to their position? The ghosts were often quite different from what actually happened, causing me to quit on level 3. Saving the positions of the player instead of the movements I think would make this alot better and more consistent. I do think a puzzle game like this would be fun to play if the ghosts were more consistent. I also do feel level 3 was a large jump in difficulty from the previous levels, and couldn't figure out a solution, especially considering pressing R reset all the ghosts, forcing you to jump off the platform to keep them if you wanted to restart. (perhaps a full-reset and a soft-reset would be better?)
Thanks for the feedback. Yeah, you're right though, I thought it would be cool to record movements so that you have to be careful not to innterupt ghosts but it ends up making the gameplay pretty finicky.
I was stuck at level 3. I was supposed to blow the boxes all the other way?
With your first life go below the rightmost box and blow up, then with your next life take extra time and get on top.
The game is a little bugged, the jump is not the same when you pressed longer the space bar, the ghosts falls when I jumped previously and the platform are slippery. Don't stop learning, game jams are made for this ! Good luck !
Thanks for playing and the feedback! There's def some bugs, but variable jump height was intended.
