Neat little game! Short and simple and fun!

One issue that I had is that player collider might be a tad to big. I like when the collider is a bit smaller and closer to the feet. But that's just me being picky 

Nice game!

Thank you for playing, I'm glad you had fun with it! The player collider probably is a bit bigger than it needs to be. If I revisit the game, I'll go in and adjust it.

I found all the wood! Nice little game.

The controls are good and never felt wrong. The visuals are simple but pleasing, a bit more variety would be good nice though, like maybe some bushed on the ground or as different wall.

The visuals are rather minimalistic but I like that. Make it super easy what is going on. I had no problem avoiding the ghost or hitting them with a piece of would. I bet this would hurt if they weren't dead already. The music is also fine and works pretty well.

It's a rather short and easy game but I enjoyed playing it. Well done!

I enjoyed how the difficulty ramped up between the levels. It was fun to play though, a funny maybe glitch I experienced was one of the Ghosts appeared to randomly teleport across the map and tagged me. A nice simple game.

Thank you for playing! Did one of the ghost collide with your character just before you ran into that issue? The ghosts are only supposed to teleport after stealing your wood so it's possible you were standing on the respawn point it chose to teleport to.

I dont remember for sure, but that sounds fairly possible. The rng gods must have been after me.

A simple game well made. Everything works well, the challenge is interesting without being too complicated. It looks nice and was a good length for a Jam. Good work

Great game! I had a lot of fun with this one. The only thing I found was that I could semi-cheese the game by letting the ghosts hit me while I had no wood and then I had free reign to gather a bunch while the ghosts fade away and respawn. Other than that, it was really well done!

Thanks for playing the game! Yes, I did discover that cheese during my own testing. I figured that if you dropped off the wood before they could steal it, they would realize you don't have any and teleport away. I didn't want to punish the players who got caught at 0 wood.

 I'm now realizing I could have made the ghosts disabled if a player was holding 0 wood but hindsight is 20/20.

Good use of multi-use! I also chose wood as the multi-use object for my game
