Managed to get a 41! was deeply confused at what was happening at first but got the hang of it eventually, I'm a little confused why you can move when the play area is so small and it's more optimal to stay in the center of the room.
I liked how you could get a bunch of ghosts at once if they were grouped up, I think a mechanic that'd take this up a notch would be some way to nudge the ghosts in different directions so you can purposefully group them up for a big combo
For your first unreal and jam project this is real decent work, you've got a simple arcade game loop that works well with the limitation, nice job!

(also in the future I'd have a look at reducing the filesize, or possibly embedding straight in the page to make it easier to play, 600MB is HUGE)

Thanks for the feedback! The huge filesize is likely due to me leaving in some of the sample assets lol. I'll make sure to remove those in the future.
