I had SO much fun with this, everything feels great!

Developer

Thank you!!!

Wow, you did a great job on this! I think being able to use the vacuum indefinitely might make things a little bit easy, but even with that, the game still has a good challenge. Nice work.

Yeah thats true, I should have made a cool down bar. Thanks!

I got 35! It starts of easy enough and has a really nice curve in difficulty going upwards, I never played Luigi mansion but saw it advertised and it reminds me of that somehow, my fave part of this game is the visuals, so crisp and clean, really suite the game, I found myself wanting to play a few times which is rare for a jam game, but trying to beat my old score is a personal fave :D
Well done man!

Developer

Wow, thank you so much Rungeon!!

I understand the fear of blue ghosts now.


Developer

Yup, they don't seem too bad until you get later in the game and they're coming at you at all angles!

Amazing game, very well done expecially color coded ghost AI, the yellow/orange one has a similar concept as PacMan orange one, I don't know if it's intentional, but I love that detail

Developer

Thank you! It was not intentional, but PacMan was an inspiration!

Probably the most polished entry I've played so far - I loved the artwork and how the different ghosts moved in different ways (damn you blue ghosts!). My only comment was I felt like the vacuum should have a power bar or an overheating mechanic or something - I basically ended up just holding the mouse button down at all times, which made it feel like the vacuum could have just been on all the time by default. I think preventing that would add a little bit to the challenge.

Overall a really amazing entry, well done!

Developer

Thank you so much! The power bar is a good idea, I agree that the best strategy is just to hold it down.

This game just feel good to play. Super satisfying gameplay. Keep it up!

Developer

Thank you!

This game was surprisingly addictive! Great job man, like always!

Developer

Thank you so much, and thanks for hosting the jam as well!

Submitted

Respect, a really fun game!

Developer

Thank you! I'd love to play your game as well but unfortunately I have a mac and it is windows only.

Submitted

Very fun! Great game! Congratulations!

Developer

Thank you!

Submitted

The only thing I wish was different is that the vacuum would follow the mouse. Aside from that, good fun to be had and I love the visuals.

Developer

Thank you! The vacuum following the mouse is a nice idea.

Submitted

I think that would make it too easy!  You wouldn't really have to move like you do now to position yourself properly to suck up the ghosts.

Extremely well polished. This game is simple but complete, and I respect it a lot for that. Good job.

Developer

Thank you!
