Cool game, simple enought to pick up and play right away but difficult to master.

I love the art style though I would have loved to see some more animations on the characters, but for a 48 hour jam its quite an achievement so kudos !!!

Please take some time to review my game if you have the chance.

Interesting! fast and excited. also a little bit horror(haha!)

at the beginning, when i first time attach my soul to “my sister” before the tutorial told me. I just feel i am hurting her.

I think these art should be fit the theme and your core meanning. so the green life bar is totally not fit. I think maybe dark is good.

also the boy’s sfx when he got hit >u<

I liked that for reconecting with your soul, you actually put it back with the mouse and not just press a key. When you die, the text at the beginning of a level reappears. You cold mabe change that. The graphics looked good and I enjoyed playing the game.

Good job!

Wait a minute. A beginning cutscene ? A story ? CHARACTER SELECTION ? And MULTIPLE LEVELS WITH THAT ? ... I'll have to call Dumbledore to tell him I know were his time-turner is xD !

All jokes aside, I really enjoyed your game. At first glance, I didn't thought I would like it so much, but each new ability brought so much depth to the gameplay, it made the whole game a really good experience. The gameplay is a huge success. 

The art is nice for a 48h jam ! I was a bit surprised by the "whiteness" of the first level, but then I understood that, with the happiness growing, each level had more and more colors, and that's a really neat idea !

The only little drawback is that it's fairly easy to stuck the enemies behind a wall so heal them, but I won't ask for an elaborate AI with pathfinding for a 48h jam (I mean, there is already SO MUCH !)

Congratulations for your entry, I had a great time playing it !

I like the idea! I would suggest to heal the others instead of doing damage, might make the healing part makes more sense? Other than that a good game!

nice idea of the game and i like the intro. 

was it me doing something wrong or it was starting over and over again from the beginning after 'helping all your family and gaining confidence'?

Thanks for the feedback ! :)

The game isn't supposed to start again, are you sure you're not dying ? :o The link with your soul drains your life.
