Great Game! I like the idea of switching forms strategically! Keep up the good work!

Nice game! Would like to see more bullet patterns and maybe more interactions with ghost mode.

Nice idea! I feel like being restricted to melee is interesting, but very hard. Also, I somehow died while in my ghost form. Still a good game though!

If you could find the time to rate my entry, I would be thankful :)

Lovely game, I stabbed him so much he's got eyes everywhere

I really liked how having to stab the boss encouraged a risky behavior. I found myself dodging and weaving in close quarters and really enjoyed it. The visuals, particularly the pumpkin, are fantastic. My biggest complaint is that the boss does not have much variation in attacks (though I also died a lot so maybe I just didn't live long enough to see it).

Well done getting it submitted! Plays well, difficult though! The pumpkin can tank some hits, I think giving the player a bit more than one hit ko would be nice! Good job.

Difficult, but charming, it felt like i was fighting against a dvd scrensaver.

Bullety and Helly! Great work! Dying in a single hit doesn't feel great when the enemy is so tanky, but its not my game. I liked the smaller enemies, too! Well done!
