Good game, desperately needs some audio, the gameplay was fun, and I think you should add an alternate ending if a ghost touches the boy before you touch any, meaning that you don't scare the "ghosts" away, but rather get a different ending.

How does you game fit the theme?
It fits the theme because you are protecting a boy from ghosts, but are they actually ghosts?...
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
I made everything in the game by myself

Hey!
First of all, great game! Congrats on making everything on your own! I really love the art, is very cute and I thin the main gameplay is really straight forward and fun. I love the fact that the difficulty increases over time, nice touch!
If you are looking for some feedback, here's mine: I think some music and sound effects would be great, even if they are simple. Having them will take the game to the next level! Also, some more work on the theme would have been great but other than that, really solid game!
Congrats again, you did very well!
I would love to have you playing mine too, if you don't mind of course! ^_^
Hi!
I liked the twist over everything else. I didn't see it coming.
Some suggestions: retry button, the standing on the head thing that others mentioned, and maybe having the child move randomly and some other ghost movement will really increase playability.
Congrats on making the game!
I see what you're going for. I like your art btw! I would make the boys head into a trigger collider so you cant stand on top of it. Right now you can simply stand on top of the boy and no ghosts will ever hit him without moving at all.
I tried and rated your game, I couldn't really see the application of the jam theme but as a start it's quite nice to look at, these days I'll be uploading a video to my new channel playing your game and other jam games, I invite you to subscribe, I leave you the link, I will also upload tutorials in case you want to learn to program games in an easy, fast and free professional way, and if you have not tried or rated my game I will do so I invite you to do so!

Cool game :) Buts its fairly easy if you just stand on the head of the boy :)

Could have used some sound effects. I had fun playing it regardless.
Has some really good potential! Just some advice:
1. Remove the boy's collision box so you can't stand on his head and camp it OR allow ghosts to spawn from the sides
2. Sound. I didn't realize it till I added it to my game but sound REALLY brings your game to life.
Otherwise, great concept!
This game would be super nice with some extra polish,
a score/high score, and maybe even a leaderboard would make for nice replayability.
SFX+Particles etc and more ghosts, boy moving, etc it would be really good.
But nevertheless, it's a nice game,
Good job!
I found that I could just camp the boy's head and not move... definitely a concept you can build upon. Also I wish there was some sound for when you defeat a ghost or just a background music. I like the idea though
Nice game it would be nice if you could see your score and if you could restart the game at the end but its stil an realy good game
