Pretty good for just your second jam! Fairly addictive and interesting, now I need (hopefully not) a permanent nap!

Cute game.  Surprisingly addictive once you figure out the rules, then can do your little loop of making beds and collecting coins.  The initial walk speed was very slow so I was looking forward to getting the boots but I don't feel like they made that big a change.  The procedural house generation is nice too although I did see one house that had the drawers right at the front door.

If I had come up with the idea of making a game about making beds for ghosts to sleep in, I'd be worried that I'd had some kind of stroke.  This game is... well its...  so incredibly simple... but it's so incredibly addictive.  This is confusing because there are no dopamine hits.  No big numbers flying around, no loot, no bonus sounds or effects.. its.. sedate and tame.  The amount of fun in this game flies in the face of all logic and traditional game design.  It is... therefore... genius.  Well done.  I really enjoyed it.

Thank you !! I also had doubts and most of the features (as you can imagine by the empty shop haha) did not make it in time so I’m really happy you enjoyed it ! I might update it with the haunted furniture and crazy devil curses I had started :)

I don't understand... The tasks were so boring, but somehow, I couldn't stop playing. You got something good there! Your loop is solid! Very good entry!

Thank you so much ! I must admit I’ve spent a LOT of time roaming about with the ghosts in this farm…

Adorable game with a cute premise. Really like the chill vibes it gives, especially how you did it with the game theme. Congratulations!

Now I wonder... Do ghosts dream of phantasmagorical sheep?

Developer

Thanks !! I’ve yet to ask them :)

The art's pretty nice. I'd recommend adding side wall tiles to the front/bottom of the building walls to give a sense of height, like you did for the back/top of the building.

Developer

Thank you for your idea ! i will try that out :)

Original idea with decent graphics and OK controls.

The walk speed is very slow, I bought one boots upgrade and still :) Also one ghost got stuck between bed and stand and Ghost Mood seems to never drop so it gets boring fast with no ending/loop, but nice little prototype for the jam.

Developer

Thank you for your feedback ! Yes the level generation is very, very crude and i would advise multiple tries before starting a new game :)
