Good game!! Something that I really liked is how the ghosts sometimes hide or fly, their animations are very good. It's fun trying to capture them and the controls are very comfortable, and I liked the ending! I loved it!!

Thank you so much! :)

Such a good game ! 

great job with everything, the only thing to note is that you could've used a blocky model for the ghosts too to match with the whole game!

Rated!, everything is right and tight, except for the camera, XD, other than that I have nothing else to complain, overall a really nice game, good job! :D

also, will you help rate mine too?, I really appreciate every single one! Thanks! XD

Fun little game. I really liked the ghosts and the cemetery. The mouse moved the camera too much in my opinion, but I could easily adapt. Nice background music, too.

Keep up the good work :)

Thank you very much! :)

The art style and music is so cute, and the little sound and animation for when I catch a ghost is satisfying! Loved that ending... For the game itself, it is quite fun for a short little game. Unfortunately, I am inside your walls 192.398.172.487... jk, the camera was a bit awkward, it needs to be lifted more above the player. The ghosts also were only running and jumping around randomly, not trying to run away from the player... Anyway, good game!

The music is very amazing! I also enjoy the game but I suggest to put some mouse sensitivity since you have settings menu because some people like me get dizzy when sensitivity is fast, but overall the game is great! good job :D

Developer

Thank you very much :) I always forget that mouse sensitivity is different in browser versions :D

Audio was great, and although was a simple game, I enjoyed it. My first time playing it the last ghost swooped out of the graveyard, making it impossible to catch, and impossible to win. That was decently annoying. But overall was good.

Developer

Oh no, that's unfortunate, I didn't know they'd be able to get out :/ Thank you though for your review :)

Good, Keep it up

Submitted(+1)

you got catch 'em all!! I love the music

Submitted(+1)

I think it captured that kind of childhood fun feeling, it would be great if there were more mechanics in between chasing the ghosts. But overall fun, well done! :)

The game was fun, and I liked the design and the audio. You can try my game and give me your feedback though :)

Submitted(+1)

Enjoyed it - reminded me very much of the fun I had playing PS1 games as a kid. Was a bit like a mini game you'd get in Spyro The Dragon, Gex: Enter the Gecko or another platformer of the like. I liked the lighting and music was appropriate.

Developer

Thank you! I had a similar feeling while making it, like a mini game in Sly Cooper 1. For the music I actually took some inspiration from that game :)

Submitted(+1)

It is a cute game! I like the design and the music.

Thats a nice game with interesting graphics and gameplay, good job!

I recommend:

- Animating the ghosts and giving them a ghosty/glowy shader

- Visualizing the ghost capturing, for example a backpack with a shader that shows how full it is.

- Different ghosts, and obstacles that makes the game harder for example water on the ground that makes the player fall and the ghosts escape the backpack.

- Final boss that tries to free his ghosts friends.

Just some ideas I got.

 Well done :)

Thank you for your review and feedback! :) I almost made a boss fight for the end, but realized I wouldn't have enough time for it, which is why it ends suddenly.

Playing catch with ghost, how cool is this :D well done!

Developer

Thank you! :)

Great job on the design, I liked the atmosphere. Some extra mechanics to use other than just running would've been fun. Good work!

Submitted(+1)

Music made me feel like I was actually catching ghosts. Fun game!

Developer

Thank you! :)

Fun little game. I enjoyed it. These ghost do be fast. I agree with other commenters that the level could have used some obstacles or something to make the chase a little more dynamic
