Nice game! I liked the mechanics and I loved the dialogue between levels (very funny that the man didn't answer the ghost, left him hanging with his measure joke lol). Didn't finish the whole game, but I may come back to it! It was interesting to put so many red herings in the form of enemies. Like, there's enemies in places that you're just not supposed to go.

Very fun to sneak around the mansion, I love the spookiness and pixel rpg feel. The ending had such a fun and chilling twist!
The game is very aesthetically pleasing and entertaining. Perfect for anyone who likes mysteries and enjoys a whiff of spookiness. The individual levels are challenging enough to provide the player with a challenge, yet not difficult enough to be frustrating. The difficulty increases as we move forward in the game. I like the implementation of the jam theme and the 'ghost mode' is very fun and useful for a player. I like the outline of the plot, the story that was shown in the game. I would love to play a longer, extended version of the game. Great job overall. <3
interesting game.. I like the graphic style (especially the furniture and environment). The puzzles are also interesting, although there could be a little more of it. But I understand - limited time. Very confusing ending... what actually happened there? Was the guy cursed in that house or was he like that from the very beginning (but hid it from Measurio) ? So many questions and so few answers.. :( I played twice and I still do not know but I had a lot of fun anyway
Beautiful art.. cool mechanics (i liked that the ghost can move anywhere, it opens wild choices for puzzle solving)
I liked the story and the dialogue per levels.
few minor bugs, however, it doesn't break the game and you can still make the block smaller using the ghost and get your way out!
Nice sounds and overall atmosphere works well! Good job guys! ^^
I like it. I've seen a few games about scaling in the jam but this is the first one that combines stealth with it,
The scaling and vision ray obstruction thing is a bit janky but that's to be expected in a jam.
The pixel art is great and gives RPG vibe. The BGM sets the mood pretty well.
Overall a solid entry.
A great game where your enlargement fantasies can come true especially when you have a job as a carpenter that makes old-style fashioned furniture that fit haunted mansions.
DieMansion is a wonderful game. It uses scaling feature to make things bigger in order to solve puzzles.
Puzzles are simple, yet entertaining and each level makes you crave more of it. Music is good, graphics are pretty and the ending is neat.
As you progress there are some fun mechanics like a breathtaking, buffed zombies that enlarge amount of melatonin in your body causing you to sleep forever.
There are few bugs like going into transcendent being and breaking outside the wall or our character vibrating when walking in horizontal plane (probably shivers of massive spook).
Definitely game worth playing, would even buy it if it was in more polished and expanded state.
Great job, I give it a score of
my enlarged sofa/put that crate on a pressure plate
that was fun, the security camera would make better sense as a sensor as it doesnt make sense to walk full view of a camera then place a block to block vision for the door to open, the characters, setting and theme where very charming,
Cool game! The pixel art looks good and I really like the aesthetic, it conveys the atmosphere really well, it reminds me a lot of classic rpgmaker horror games! Good job!
really creative and fun take on the theme, and it looks so good! i'm loving this and hoping to finish every level.
I like the way you approached concept of “scale”. Good thing there was a “how to play” note, because it could be pretty hard to understand all the possibilities the game offers without it. Very adorable ghost btw. But for gods sake! SPOILER that creepy guy in lvl 3 who ran 140km/h straight at me gave me a heart attack :'D
The art and music for this game are brilliant, and I loved the personality of the ghost character. Really great concept for a core mechanic too
Hi, thanks for you comment! Hope you enjoyed the game.
Regarding bad things - we had a tough time find out the good spot of player speed vs enemy speed and looking at the comments seems like we were a bit too much on the "slow" side. The other two things are unfortunately the bugs we didn't manage to fix before the deadline :D
the music of the game is perfect, and the mechanic of changing the size of different objects is such an interesting twist on the standard "player changing size" theme.
great work!
