How did you/your team interpret the theme?
In our game, your character slowly becomes one of the lost children and joins them only to show up later in another player's run. In this single player version, you don't run into other player's past selves though

How was your/your team's experience in this jam?
we had a good time. The 2 week time limit was perfect.

Cool game, the puzzles are clever and tricky. I do think that the ghosts should be a bit more forgiving, had to play the game multiple times before getting near the end, and repeating sections of puzzle games is really boring. But other than that, good job!

This gives me the brrrrrrr. Which I am gonna assume was the point you were trying to make. Nicely done!

Really great game! Sadly, I couldn’t figure out the last puzzle. I felt like there must be 2 more buttons somewhere? But I just couldn’t find them. Am I on the right track? I played 4 times and just could never get the baseball at the end.

The ghosts were incredibly annoying. Is there some way to get them to move in a specific direction / specific location? I would just wait for what felt like an eternity for them to go to a place where I could safely pass.

Nice job!

Whew! I finally did it! The last puzzle was confusing with the 2 extra little “spots”. Was that an intentional red herring?

This is really well done! I think I hit a glitch when I had glue on half the devil mask I accidentally ran into the bear and couldn't get the mask half back... sad, but I really felt like I was piecing everything together. Very nice!
