How does you game fit the theme?
The game is about fighting ghosts (which is not real) with your shadow (also not real) and all of this is performed at a stage (just an act) .

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes, we did 80% of it from scratch but there are some asset/code that we reuse from our previous project.

Loved the character and the ghost art! Overall loved the art and aesthetic of your whole game really :) I died a lot the first couple of times and didn't realize why my attack wasn't working til I read some of the comments aha but afterwards I was a ghost attacking pro :)

Great submission, I had fun :D 

thanks so much, glad you like it :D

I only managed to get 35 (I think it's a pretty low score). This is a really cool game, I can definitely see more things added into the game, different ghosts that do different things? I also think it'd be cool to have the shadow turned off for a short period of time so the player can only run, but this will probably make the game even harder... This is a very polished game, did not encounter any bugs, well done!

thank you for your feedback. i like it

Sooo I'm pretty hyped that I got a highcore of 62 - please reply if that's a good highscore :D 


The game idea is really good, I struggled to figure out how to kill them, but the comment section helped :D Love the art, great menus and music, really good game.

Thanks for the feedback, i'm pretty sure 62 is a good score :D

Good game :) I didn't understand that shadow was the range of attack at first but after that it was cool! I like the graphics too ;)

Thank you :D

Not a concept I was expecting to see form this jam for sure.  Definitely an interesting experience and a pretty good execution on the idea in my opinion.  Though it is pretty hard for sure.  Just trying to figure out how to dodge the enemies and manage to reach the spotlight

I do feel like the shape of the room hurts the dodging a bit, since there are some slants to get stuck in, though ignoring that, cause obviously the layout fits a stage which makes sense.  The actual gameplay as pretty good, one bit of feedback I would say though is that a visual cue for where the next light is going to be would be very nice.  

Mostly because of the fact that there were quite a few times where I was banking on my current shadow and it proceeded to jump completely behind me, with no visual cue.  The audio was nice for knowing how long once I figured it out, but a visual cues so you can plan ahead would be nice.


Overall though a relatively well done game, with a pretty distinct art style and some pretty well done gameplay.  Would be interested to see where this might go with some update as well.  Maybe some sets or something.  Not sure.

wow thankyou for your feedback, a lot of people is saying the game is too hard as well, we're gonna try to improve on the game balancing and playtesting

The tutorial said to attack with space but that didn't seem to do anything? Like, gauging by the other comments I'm clearly missing something but I don't know how I got any score and why I didn't visibly attack a single time :(

we're sorry we didnt made the tutorial clear enough. You have to attack the enemies with your shadow

Submitted

Pretty hard haha. I suggest to make a web version to ones who prefer it (including me). Love the idea to be able to attack within shadow area. Nice work!
