Super cute wiggly physics for the characters and good accessibility features in the start screen! I love the concept its quite funny to be on the other side of the haunting hehe. The NPC reactions were very funny, and the sound effects are great. The interaction prompts were a little hard to read due to low contrast, I didn’t see them at first oops hehe. There was a minor bug of the NPC appearing underneath the TV sprite, maybe y-sorting needs some adjustment. I like the use of lighting, and its quite funny when the NPC runs away. Overall a humorous little game. Great work!

Thanks for playing :) I'm glad you liked the concept, I had phasmaphobia from the other side in mind. I think I messed up y sorting just before submitting when rearranging scenes

This was cute! I love the little smile on the ghost and the yell the people make caught me off guard the first time. If expanded I would love to see a bit more complexity in the gameplay other than just spamming the interactions. Great work though this was very charming to play!

Developer

Thanks for playing :) It would be fun to expand on this a bit, there's so many ways to improve it beyond what I can do in the jam time limit

Super charming!  Took a minute to realize it was a ouija board in the room, nice touch!  I kinda  wanted some more gamey elements, like comboing the scares but it maybe it's better to just have a nice, straightforward experience.  Regardless, nice work!

Developer

Thanks for playing :) I did make it so fear increases faster when the light are out, but you're right, more of that would be better and it wasn't really clear that's what was happening

The ghost is very cute. I like that it just wants to be alone and at peace - relatable! Overall the game was short but sweet and you did the sound and controls well.

that yell is the best sound effect i heard in a while, it was fun, the bars on top of the living were not super clear to me, still not sure if i was supposed to fill them or empty them, but got them all out none the less, good stuff!

Developer

Thanks for playing. You're supposed to fill the bars, they show the fear level :)
