This was pretty great, loved the jumpscare lol, it literraly made me jump, very very fun game, only problem is that walking without jumping is kinda hard, otherwise it is a pretty amazing game for such a short period of time!,we would love if you could rate our game too :)

Do you think you can produce a web browser version of the game? I can't download large files at the moment D:
Great spooky atmosphere! You could add some walking sounds and limit how long you can run to make it even better :D With a story this could be a nice haloween game.
Interesting style.
1) Never - ever - for no reason at all - name a folder "WINDOWS" when you place it for people to download.
2) The English language is a nice thing - Sure, you can argue that it's not 100% incorrect to write breed for potions... https://wikidiff.com/brewed/breed
3) You get stuck every time you hit an object? sort of odd movement which most of the time causes you to get caught.
Yikes, why would you ever use wikidiff when there is factualist 😂 https://www.factualist.com/difference/breed-versus-brewed/
I'm really impressed by how you did all the visuals in such a short time. And the mechanics are not perfect but they work well, it's definitely not easy to do such a monster AI. The biggest problem I see is the collision which is very often blocking the player. I was able to workaround it by jumping a lot. :) Also sometimes the flowers are hard to click sometimes.
As for the gameplay, I wasn't really excited about it, it could use some redesign.
How I die a lot is very confusing but it was fun looking around and blending everything. twice I got to mixing a potion with potion and it would not let me for some reason. I figured it out on my own and found the book so I wasn't confused there. Only real complaint I have was if I noticed the Necromancer(on a rare occasion) I tried doing the hop and peak strat. . . It got me killed xD
Didnt want to sleep tonight anyway, I spent a good 20 mins on this game but couldnt figure out the potions, it was however very well made and scary the audio and visuals were great. Thanks!
I was working on a initial description but time went out, but for the records, you have to search for the magic flowers and pick them with right click, then you have to go to the alchemy station and read the recetary, it's not much descriptive but gives you the idea, mix flowers, then potions, and find the ectoplasm potion and take it to the stone's skull pedestal to win.
Also the bar tells the necromancer proximity but it's not that precise (on purpose) so you better take care and look around, and as you may now, never stop walking...
PD: Thanks for your feedback it's grat to know the flaws so I can fix them :3
Im understand-bar on the top left - its detector necro, but how it worked I don't understand :D
Visual is pretty good, atmosphere disturbing (in the first time when necro is on I cry out :,D)
Good work!
Thanks, I actually made that the bar goes crazy to time to time so it's not that easy and make you to never stop, also added some Instructions and tips in the descriptions and in a post, so check it out agai if you've got the time :3
I also would like to add a ghostly scream after the jam ends when the necro finds you... to give it an extra scare XD
