Fun and cute but the shooting mechanic was a bit finnicky. I kept running into the enemies I was trying to shoot at due to the aiming system. 

Submitted

Great work! i really like the graphics on this! but i found having to move to the direction im shootin a little difficult. mouse input to shoot (or arrow keys to shoot in that direction) would be my preference.

Submitted

Great art and music!

Submitted

I like it!

I liked the ghosts and I liked how each time you threw something different. I struggled to throw objects sideways though. 

Developer

Thx 4 the feedback!
Try to press J then move in the direction you want to throw the item. Up and Down counts too!
Also if I press A and W, I can't attack for some reason. That's a mystery to me

Very simple and fun, there should be indicators to where the ghosts are because they can get out of your view range.  7/10

Developer

Thx for the feedback! I think I could make some UI arrows to enemies, but they should not close the view

I like how clear the hit point HUD is. I don’t have much other feedback to add that hasn’t already been mentioned.

Good luck on your pixel art learning journey! If you’re looking for inspiration or tips, there are some really good tutorials over on Lospec.

I also got halfheart sprite, but didn't have time to got it working so you have only 3 hearts.
Thx 4 the feedback! I'll check Lospec out

I'm struggling to figure out how to shoot sideways, and struggling to see how the limitation was justified here. But I like the art and the smoke effect when you kill and enemy!

Developer

Yes, I'd call this input system "experimental", I wanted to make it smoother and easier to control, but I wanted to finish my game more
Thx 4 the feedback

the shooting mechanics need improvement. if a ghost is closing in from sides, I have to dash through it to be able to shoot at it. making it impossible to beat

I can see the limitation in the game but not the theme?

the music and art is good.

Developer

Thx for the feedback!

The theme is for inspiration only, so it's just my pixel art falling at you.

great game, the sprites could've been hue shifted, but the gameplay and the concept were wonderfully executed, great job

Developer(+1)

Thx! I used standard aseprite pallet, and I mostly code, so I don't know anything about colors. Way to go
