Fun game, I like it that it goes faster and faster. There could be more tasks, but with this timelimit this is really good! One thing I would change is the collider of the player. I think its too big.
Anyways, really good and fun game, I got a score of 44! :)
Cool game, I liked it :)
Definitely a weird entry, that had an interesting game loop I've got to say. Although I don't quite see where the theme comes into the concept, or the gameplay to be honest. Especially since the ratings page confirms that the ghosts are real. Which I honestly assumed they wouldn't be and that would be the point of the game and the incorporation of the theme.
ignoring that though it does have a decent gameplay loop with a few ways for the ghosts to utterly get you whenever you mess up a little bit, although it does end up being relatively easy as long as you don't be like me and forget the interact button. Ignoring that though, there's never really a significant amount of time needed for any one task, besides the lights task which lead stop the tasks almost never piling up unless you mess up or let them.
I feel like if maybe the tasks piled up faster it would add a bit more to what seems to be a goal for fast paced gameplay, kinda similar to Among Us's Sabotages etc.. If that is the goal then I think leaning into it could be more interesting, cause at the moment there were a lot of times just waiting for the tasks in the same spot to show up. So it could add a little mix in there to have "emergency" similar to Among Us (only using this as a reference due to the similarities UI saw in controls, style and gameplay.
Overall though a decent setup mechanics wise for a task handling style game and some very nice written lines for the ghosts, added quite a bit to the humor of the game for me personally just seeing them in the corner I do feel like some sort of extra visual cue for them would be interesting. to make them seem more like they are there. Not sure what you'd go with though to be honest, theres a lot of approaches.
Really great game! I loved the task system, it was enjoyable to do all the tasks although it got a little repetitive after doing the same tasks over and over again. the sound was cool and the little things the ghosts said were funny
This gave me old Newgrounds vibes! The arrows make it really clear which tasks you have to get to first, so that was a great addition! And I like the cheeky story for your game! It was fun zooming around the level to complete the tasks, and the time limit really puts the pressure on you! I would probably remove the exit button on the web build though, because it just crashes the game since it can't close the application! That's a really easy fix though! Great work!
I love games with mini games built into them, it was fun to try to keep the ghost at bay for as long as I could. The jazz helped to calm me down though but felt a bit outta place when I felt like the game wanted me to run around the house. Cool game though!
cool game with good mini games :)
liked the game! But the character controlled is a bit weird
I love the minigames and how many there were, fun game!
Wonderful mini games for the chores! Love the concept of the ghosts making the chores difficult! The game is well made and the means to complete the chores is made clear for the player! The music was nice and relaxing which was a big contrast to later in the game when you have tons of chores to take care of!
My dog was super interested in the dish sound! Fun game, love the among us style mini games. Got used to the map, but at first it was hard being so zoomed in.

Among us but just the tasks, it's a fun idea! I got a score of 32, but what were the numbers at the end?
The game started easy enough, but got really hard after a while, so it didn't get boring. I did get lost a few times, even when the lights were on, which I guess was intentional. The visuals are good. I do wish the camera was a bit more zoomed out and I could interact with the objects with the mouse instead of E, that feels a bit more natural too me.
It's a good game, well done!
Those numbers at the end was a leaderboard. Each person gets a randomly generated name and scores are stored on there. We thought it would be a cool feature for people to look at.
Ah that makes sense! I blame my sleep deprived brain for not getting it :). It is a really nice feature to add!
I love the music choice while I hit head first into every single wall.
This game has good visuals, nice music. For some reason I liked the soundeffect for the plate cleaning task.
The first seconds I spent trying to figure out how to interact with the objects, but my main issue was how close to the player the camera was, I could not see or react in time.
Problems aside, good submission.
Nice assets. I feel the music was a bit off for the ghost theme. The map was feeling more like a labyrinth than an actually flat, and I felt lost sometimes, the indicators helped a lot in that matter. A more zoomed out camera would have been better.
Game looks great!
I think i would have benefitted from having a more zoomed out camera. And that the camera was quicker to follow the player.
I like the homage to among us tasks :D
I really like the jazz. The graphics were also really well made. Good job.
Among us flashbacks, nice music and art
The game was fun, I liked that it got harder every time! Didn't feel like there was an ending though.
This was oddly satisfying! Nice work! It didn't seem like there was an end goal though.
