An absolute feast for the eyes and ears--stunning art across the board, great voice work, lovely UI design, and a terrific soundtrack! Love the character design on our Pretty Ghostie friend, especially ✨Phenomenal work to the team!

The backgrounds and character art are truly fantastic!  And I was impressed at how good the music fit too. There was so much energy to how the characters appeared and where you all chose to put them on screen. Everything was handled with such care and I look forward to seeing more in the future. I'll definitely be checking out your previous work as well! 

(also super glad I ended up reading the rest of the game page because after I got the 2 endings I kept trying to unlock more!)

Thank you so much! We're working on an update with more endings in the future, so please stay tuned!

I loved your Mall Daze game, the bestie rating part was so funny XD The UI was so responsive too. Your new Spook entry also looks lit! I'll definitely be checking it out too ^^

Thank you jnsa for checking it out! Also congrats, I see the team you were in submitted their entry too ^^
The "chinese opera singing" in the credits is actually the Exorcist's VA bloopers from when he was warming up his voice before recording his lines, that could have been a whole track in itself XD But it was too funny not to keep it in XD
