Game Description
It's the year 2145. You're a ghost and Halloween is approaching. You want to grow the biggest pumpkin of the season and decide to take advantage of the city's automatic irrigation system to do so. Swap your pumpkin with the flowers being watered to make it grow. But watch out! Make sure not to do any permanent damage to the plants by letting them die. A ghost should, after all, be invisible.

Cute artwork and fun to play! It took me one playthrough to understand how the time progression worked, but otherwise the game felt intuitive.
Fun and the art is nice!
Cool idea!
I guess the black screen is where the game breaks?
Some audio would go a long way.
I think it has potential, I knew what to do after the first time the watering can came, so it teaches what to do. I had fun.
Thanks for the feedback!
The screen going black at the end happens when a plant runs out of water, at that point you also get your pumpkin graded in stars.
We realize this is a very unpolished end screen but we were in a rush to make it functional. ^^'
Also thanks for pointing out the audio... I noticed that I forgot to turn on looping. At the start you'll hear the tune once :(
And sfx of course would also be great to add.
The art in this game is really fun! I was a little confused when the screen went black but overall it's cute and fun!
super sweet game, I really enjoyed to play it! My pumpkin grow up to 22 stars :)
