Cute little game! I particularly liked the character walking animation. I think it could use some sort of increase in difficulty over time to prevent it from just being a forever slog for a high score. A simple way could be maybe adding another ghost after a certain point threshold.

Simple and very arcade-ish!!! Such a cute angry ghost, he's not pleased.....

Super intuitive!

Developer

Very simple simple but functional game. It feels like a finished product, which is not something we all can say when submitting to a jam. I liked the gameplay loop, and it definitely has the Gameboy Soul! 

Developer

Thank you! That was my personal goal for the jam, to ship a finished product in a time limit, glad to hear that piece of feedback!

Graphics and sound on point, the game loop is simple and effective.

Overall an enjoyable game, I would have loved to see the ghost getting slightly faster after x amount of gold collected or maybe after a certain amount of times getting shot by the player.

The players walk cycle is amazing and the game over music reminds me of getting a game over in an old arcade game.

Developer

Thank you for the feedback and suggestions! Glad to hear the music felt like an old arcade title!

Firstly I want to say that you have an absolutely AMAZING game name, and lovely cover image. Gameplay loop was nice and simple too, if a bit easy. However, the music at the start is a bit rough on the ears. Other than that, good work!

Developer

Thank you! Had a lot of fun drawing the cover image!

Overall, the game turned out really well, the concept is so good, but I think the designs and music could have used more variety. Aside from that, the monster gets stuck in certain spots. Otherwise, it’s really nice, well done!

Developer

Thank you! Appreciate the helpful feedback!

Awesome job! Really enjoyed the character design and your take on the theme!

Developer

Thank you very much for the feedback!

Great job. I really enjoyed this one.  It was quick and simple.  It would have benefited from some sound effects.  The screen shake isn't quite Gameboy-like, but it *felt* good.

Developer

Thanks for the helpful feedback glad you enjoyed it! The game did have sound effects, however since its a browser title you have to click on the game window, apologies if this was not clear enough.

Oh, how odd. I thought I did that.  Yeah, I hear them now.  Let me re-rate. :D
