Nice game! Failed on normal - didnt get that clues are related to the same person :) But on easy won it! Sometimes just from 2 clicks within 5-10 secs I think - lucky guess. Loved it!
Some observations: When you caught the guy, the text on the screen is changed before the witch dialogue pops up - so you can see a new lever started, or a new clue dropped before the witch actually said smth to you. Likely the UI should be updated only after you finished the dialogue.
Fun game, maybe easy mode could have infinite lives to help ease the player into the game mechanics otherwise the music was banging and the idea it fit the theme really well. nice work.
Easy mode is to hard :P
To many guests to search, when multiple people are wearing the s clue as well (red fingerless gloves,.. found one, but not right,. .and star glasses,.. ok,. found one, but not right,.. and ghost hat,.. never found one, time up)
I liked the concept and the set up, and the mechanics are fine. But I'm just not skilled enough to manage that many people to search through on easy mode.
But well done on the game! great going both of you!
Love this submission! I managed to clear all 24 levels. I had some issues with performance and mouse input not registering but a reload of the game page seemed to fix it. The game itself was a lot of fun though. Great work!
Fun game! I like the zoom effect and white outline on the guest you are currently looking at. Performance was good for me in my playthrough. One thing I noticed was that if I left the game view and returned, it would no longer register my mouse look input. That might just be a quirk with web builds on itch.io. Really enjoyed your game!
Nice fun game 😊👏
it was laggy a little bit.. mybe because I played the browser build!
Anyway it was fun! great job!
Many thanks to the developers—they’ve significantly improved performance, and the game is now much more comfortable to play!
Fun idea: a witch's party on a grave, and you find the uninvited guests by their clothes. The music is cool, and some costumes made me laugh (the road cone hat!) 🎃
Honest feedback: for me it was too hard. The timer is very short for so many guests, and the game froze often in my browser. More time on the first levels and better performance would make it much more fun.
Good luck with the jam!

I had to move towards the forest to reduce the lag. Idea is nice, searching is sometimes quite difficult. But I like it. Well done.
Pretty decent, however the performance on Web really lets it down, I either have to only use Zoom or resort to orbiting the edge and looking outward to see as few people as possible.
You'll def want to look into LODs so simplify the meshes of the characters at a distance, of course with this being a game of trying to spot the "uninvited" this might be a challange, the other option is to break up line of sight so not all the characters are visible at any one time, but are in distinct areas so you don't lose your place of where you've searched.
Also I found the use of "Wrong" and ✅ confusing, I initially thought I had found them (the check) and perhaps "wrong" was like something to do with them being uninvited...I only later realised on losing tha they were marked as "been guessed" so perhaps different iconography could work better.
The performance is SOOOO much better, well done, I noticed you paused the animation of characters far away unless you zoom in on them; very clever solution.
I did notice one small thing which I just have to share, some of the graves have no space infront of them for a casket 😄 but as I say, small thing.
Fantastic work, well done on the fix.
Good rave loads of people having fun. Tricky to find the correct guess but very fun to play a little bit of where is waldo! Good job!
I know the music is good when everybody dances XD.
Love the concept, the gameplay needs improvements also its a bit laggy sometimes.
Great work.
Sure!
Chrome.
I tried reloading it and playing it again, it seems when there are huge number of models in the viewport it lags when moving and sometimes when you stay still. I suggest to see the models and maybe reduce its vertices (I am not an expert but i think this is the issue), and I did not see any spikes on my gpu/cpu/RAM when the game lagges.
hope this help, and best of luck
Excellent game. Graphics were superior. Game play was flawless. Design was excellent.
One thing, the clues can fit several of the guests sometimes, 'Wearing black socks' there were several guests wearing black socks.
Anyway, the game was great fun, thanks
I love the music so much. It really sets the tone as soon as you open the game. Good job on the intro the tutorial fit into the intro really smoothly. I was a little confused at the guessing. When I guessed wrong I'd get a green checkmark which usually means correct, but a big word saying wrong! The messaging was a bit mixed
