Good job . Just felt like what @theo said about health  bars and maybe make the bullets for the ghost smaller or the player . the camera is kind of small compared to them making it hard to avoid shots

Good effort for your first jam! I really enjoy the art and the music. The gameplay could use some improvements such as adding a health bar for the ghost, and reduce the difficulty a bit :)

Submitted

it was fun! pretty hard to kill the ghost though.

Good concept but there needs to be more polish, I know this is your first game jam and I can relate because this is my first one too, but I feel like this game could have been greatly improved with some visual feedback like little animations or a health bar for the ghost (that I never defeated).  I also feel as if both the player and the ghost were smaller, there could have been movement on the x axis of the game which would have improved the game drastically. Overall there is a good base but it needs to be expanded upon because the way it is it feels incomplete and rough around the edges. Good for your Game though, as it is a learning experience.

It feels very unfinished, more player feedback is needed and the music is very repetitive so it gets annoying quick, there's also no real way to "escape" the ghost because we're locked on the Y axis. I feel like it could definitely be improved.

Thanks for the feedback! I'll try to take this into consideration! This is my first game so I am still learning.

"Failed to load mono"... But it looks very cool on the screenshots. I wish I could have played the game
