Loved the art and colors used on this game! Hopefully you can continue and flesh it out :)

That was cool! There's a lot of awkward sprite clipping, but the art is otherwise proficient and the character design is charming; I especially like the construction of the ghost! The soundtrack is basic, but competent, with a solid understanding of building on musical themes.

The only bug I encountered was the sprite-static bug. However, I was still able to walk into the other room and back, fixing the issue.

As it stands, it is a competent mini-adventure game prototype that, although lacking in proper resolution, does clearly outline two achievable goals that function intuitively: I was able to put out the fire and destroy all the smiling boxes! It demonstrates the potential for the possession mechanic. As far as unfinished prototypes go, this is one of the best I have played so far!

Great work! Congratulations on the submission!

woaw !! thanks for the long review and for the kind words <3

that damn sprite static bug XD Some of the clipping is due to me being a total beginner with gb studio I guess!

I’m glad I did partake into this jam just for your review alone :D

there was a game breaking bug, seemed cool though

Developer

yeah unfortunately the game is not finished at all, and this weird glitch bug too that kept happening randomly (most likely this is because an actor isn’t playing the right animation and it breaks the whole game) I shall try to make a better version of it because I couldn’t express my ideas properly!!

thanks for testing it in any case, much appreciated!!

Developer

you’ve done it all haha thanks for playing it through!!

I wish I have had the time to finish it up properly before the jam ended! I started coding with gbstudio with this jam and I went too optimistic on the features I could implement XD
