This game has such a rich atmosphere due to the art style, sound design, and post processing effects. Great work! I am not sure if this game has a lose condition, as I have not found it, nor a win condition.
The AI of the ghosts responding to the dog's light was very responsive and predictable, which made the game all the more enjoyable. Also I love the book's layout. Keeping it "simple" with no text and instead the silhouette when not captured, and the sprite when captured. It keeps the ghosts mysterious. I'm so curious why this lake (?) has so many spirits. Anyway I really liked this game!
I like the graphic and the sound. Gameplay is simple but interesting. But after I got all the souls, it's not spawning anymore.
Nice graphics, animation and sound! The mechanics feel satisfying as well.
Only issue: is too short XD would love to see more variety of souls.
Nice atmospherics. I felt a little hampered by the two layers of separation for the controls. Throw bone, wait, single swipe. Lots of waiting there. I realized it's not supposed to be fast paced but I still feel like there's a line between slow-paced and sluggish that one can reach. Still a good entry.
Thanks for the feedback! We considered giving the player something to do while the bone was being retrieved but we couldn't settle on something that would work with the atmosphere and story we came up with. The catching mechanic was meant to inject some action into the game but I can see how that could make the wait more noticable.
