Another great entry. Amazing, well done. Although I did manage to get to the clock get the key and get out, some items were not used at all. Maybe add a description when going through the inventory to help better understand the visuals? Also, maybe, there must be collectables and quest items. Somehow also in inventory pinpoint them to help discern them?

Pretty cool game, with proper spooky theming!
I played for a while, and ended getting a lot of items, but I barely understood what was what. Also the room with the 3 boxes near the ghost, even solved, the box hitboxes are still there, and I never understood if after something happened.

Overall the game is pretty cryptic about things, which helps with the spooky theme, but becomes a problem when there is no clear goal. Offering a bit more guidance can go a long way.
The music and artwork work pretty well together and it feels like a gameboy game! Really nice entry!

Nice adventure! It feels really good, the dialogue and the atmosphere are cool. 
Maybe it missed some feedback to the user on what's going on.

Great great entry anyway!

A funny atmosphere and nice dialogues! The soundtrack is really good! 
Unfortunately I get a bug after giving the eye what is looking for, while he was talking to me I got hit by a spider and now I can't move anymore :/

😩 I thought I had managed to squash that bug but apparently not fully. I'm sorry for that
