Finding the ghost band playing the soundtrack was the cherry on top! 

The game idea is very fun, it gets repetitive but I understand the jam contrain to start complicating the necromancer stage a bit more. I like that you don't die to ghosts, but some more spice on how, where and WHY the parts to fix our poor test subject appear and are obtained would benefit this game if y'all decided to do some more with this.

The art is very much in my lane! Would adoooooore some animations (nothing fancy, New Grounds level)

The gameplay was really repetitive but the concept was pretty funny. The music kinda slaps too

Cool art

That was really fun! The idea of playing not the hero, but the guy that has to keep reviving him is a really novel idea. The actual necromancer gameplay was just sort of a scavenger hunt, but the music and artwork had a good fun "spoopy" vibe. Kinda reminds me of a klasky csupo cartoon (in a good way)

Glad I wasn’t the only one who was jumpscared at the start. Had no idea what I was getting myself into. I loved the concept, and the music was great. I do wish the ghost provided more of an obstacle for me to overcome, but I overall enjoyed the experience. Great work.

The beginning jumpscared me a bit and i was a bit confused as to what to do during the game but fun!
