First let me say the How To Play screen story and animation were great lol
I kind of lost track of time while playing and was presented with a game over screen jumpscare. It wasn't until I played again that I remembered the time limit existed. Perhaps making it change colors or flash in some way when time is almost out so it catches the player's attention?
I'm also not sure if it was a bug or not, but if there were multiple arrows for things to examine in range at once, I could only check one of them, and the others would all disappear (ex: around the plants). I don't know if it actually checked all of them but only showed one or if only one was checked and the rest became inaccessible in the process.
Overall, a cool idea and a funny backstory :)
People rarely check the How to Play screen T.T so it makes me so happy to know someone checked it out :D
The multiple arrow/loot is definitely a bug. It's supposed to disappear one at a time. I'm trying to fix it (so far no good ngl).
I'll add the changing color for the timer when I update the game. Thank you for your comment and feedback!
Nice game .
I love music when click space. :)
Good job.
Thank you! I tried making the ghost sound cuter lol
Great jop!
Thank you!
very nice! also I'm trying to spread the word about my game! so it would be great if every body could check it out! (and maybe even rate it!)
Thank you!
Fun little game... Great visuals... Wish there was more to do in the beautiful levels created 😅
Enemy mechanics shall be released in the 5.2 update :D (or not lol, maybe??). Thank you for your kind words.
I really liked the way you included a lot of additional Kenney assets as decoration for the house. Really well done, and cute game.
Thank you <3 I try to make the house more lively.
I'll try adding enemies someday and make it more like a stealth game. Unfortunately, the timer is the best I can do for now. Thank you for your feedback! Very much appreciated
Very cute game and fun mechanic. I really liked the mirror "easter egg". I feel like there might have been other funny jokes, but because the timer kept going during the pop ups, I clicked them away before reading most of them.
Try to find all of them :D Thank you for playing
Really cool game and concept, well done!
Aww thank you
Really liked the concept of the game! I felt a little lost sometimes, maybe it could be more clear on which wall I could pass. Anyway, well done!
You can pass through all walls with SPACE. Unless there's a bug? Let me know. Thank you!
Awesome! This is a really fun short game, simple yet efficient. Love the little story that goes with it.
(and the fact that I gave the idea makes me prouder hehe...)
Great job! That looks really good.
Thank you!
The level design is great in this game, I love the attention to detail even having bones underground haha!
There were a few bugs I encountered, sometimes the game would return to the main menu even if the timer didn’t hit zero and I wasn’t sure what was causing it!
I had fun finding a plethora of toilet brushes and this cursed water lol.
That water will rejuvenate you :) I'm loving that you notice those details. They're tedious, but people noticing them makes it worth it!
Sorry for the bugs. I'll get my spray.
This is a really good game! I enjoyed the hidden treasure chest and bone, those were nice touches. It could be a bit tricky to try and target some things, it could be a bit flickery, but I thought it was a lot of fun. Maybe a leaderboard of some description would be a nice addition, but this is a great game jam entry!
I'm still a beginner so it may be a bit (lot) buggy. I'll definitely add a leaderboard sometime! But I'm glad you liked it nonetheless.
I definitely did, it was great, good job!
Enjoyed this! The intro writing and yuck water gave me a chuckle =)
I have achieved comedy! :D Thank you
Great use of the theme, love the music (even if it could be a little bit high some times). Gameplay feels really smooth.
Thank you! Getting a "smooth gameplay" is such a high praise for me!
haha no joke, i love this gameplay
Interesting idea! The house was really nice. The only thing is that I feel like I should be able to go through everything, not just certain parts of the walls. Fun game overall :)
You use SPACE to pass through walls. You should be able to pass through everything in the house, unless if it's a bug?
Ahhh. Probably should have checked the controls. My bad :)
haha no problem! I'll add the controls in the descriptions since a few might be confused too.
fun game, wasn't quite sure how to steal things but i enjoyed phasing through the walls and exploring the house!
You press E when you get near furniture. I'm glad you still like the house :D
thanks! do i need to do anything when the steal menu pops up?
Nah, just close the panel when it pops up. It automatically adds to the score.
ahh then my bad for not realising haha!
Environment was great! There are rooms for ui improvements but good job man!
Thanks for the feedback! I'll try upgrading the UI, ngl not my strong suit.
