Very cute and charming art style! Was a nice twist on Pac-Man. The controls were a big rough though and it seems like the player gets re-oriented easily by collisions which can spin you out of control. But overall nice job :)

The art is very good! The whole look of the game is very nice and looks pretty polished. But I also had trouble with the controls on keyboard

Submitted

It's all in the controls right now, overall the artstyle is on the spot! Couldn't get to the part of anything new in the pac-man formula, mechanically speaking, but there is definetly a lot of wiggle room for that. Good luck!

Great stuff, had a bit of difficulty with the movement (played with a keyboard) but managed to collect all the candles in the end. Very similar gameplay to pac-man which I assume is intentional and a plus for me. Well done both of you!

I like the visuals, but music feels to repetitive and keyboard controls is very bad. 

Submitted

I really like the visuals and the vibe but it’s kind of a nightmare to play on keyboard. I might have missed something though. Well done though!

I liked the look and the introduction to how to play but when I started moving I felt nauseous.  Maybe removing going backwards or flipping the witch around is an option? Just forward, left, and right, with a larger turning radius.

looks nice but movement is somehow odd, wasd does not move the witch where I expect to go
