Yo this is such a good game! I love the whole idea of dying and becoming a ghost. The visuals are amazing! The bubbles coming out of the player when he's about to die? lol I enjoyed this. It's a 5/5 for me on every aspect except for one area..

I think it needs more sounds! Maybe a ghost sound? A better dying sound? Like a vocal 'aaaaaaa' when player dies or something. A floating sound? I like the ambient fire sound but that's the only one that sticks out. 

Good job mate! Good luck!

thank you so much for your feedback :) it means a lot.  i dont have a lot of experience with sounds and this was my first time making the sounds myself and not using a sound generator but i'm gonna remember that for my next game and put more sound in. 

have a nice day :)

Very interesting idea. A fun way to include the theme :)


I also made a platformer. https://itch.io/jam/wowie-jam-3/rate/940947 you can play and rate it if you want :)

Moving faster while your're pressing up and right at the same time(while being a ghost) feels a little bit weird.  You could probably fix that by normalizing the vector of your movement, then multiply it with the speed and Math.Max(Input of the x-Axis, Input of the Y-Axis), then applying it to the player.

Overall the game was fun to play. The base idea is great even if the levels were not too hard. I loved being a host and i loved the ragdolls!

The sound effects are super satisfying, especially the fire torch one. I like the visuals a lot, really simple and nice pixel art that fits well the style of the game. Great job. :D

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much :D I'm not really good at making sound effects so i always used a sound generator but i wanted to try something new and make the sound my self so i am really glad you liked it. :)
