I really like the setting and atmosphere. Each enemy in the game had a specific role that they nailed, the Yurei and Ferryman were terrifying.

I did run into a lot of technical issues. The first time I died, when I tried to play again it just showed the main character face down on the ground and never progressed.

I think with a bit of bug-fixing and polish this could be really fun without many functional changes, nice work!

The tension is there from the first second — the horror mood really works, and the torch fits the theme well. A few things I ran into:

- When a ghost found me, I couldn't tell how I was supposed to get away from it.

- The item you find at the start — I never figured out what it does.

- The splash sound when you fall in the water felt out of place against the mood you've built everywhere else.

- In fullscreen it stuttered quite a bit for me.

Small things against a game I thought was excellent overall.

I love the idea, and the Ferryman genuinely scared me the first time he showed up. I can really see this growing into a full indie horror game, the Japanese folklore setting is very interesting. The music is lovely too, though the rain or water ambience is a bit too loud for me and drowns it out.

A few technical notes, same in windowed and fullscreen:

• The game lags a bit in the browser, and buttons sometimes don’t respond on the first press.
• On the difficulty screen, the second line of the description overlaps another line of text (“…a blue fire opens the seal”).
• In the item card, the kanji line overlaps the English name (OFUDA / 御札), and in the left slot it overlaps “I INFO”.
• The item description runs past the bottom of its panel and gets cut off.

These are all small fixes, and the atmosphere is already there. I’d love to see where you take it next. Great work! 🏮
