Really cool little mini game!The art is so pretty and really cute! I love the art style a lot. The game however was so difficult I had to spam the attack and the controls took some getting used to. I end up dying so many times, wish it was either a bit easier or had a bit better controls. Cool game still enjoyed it regardless as it runs very smoothly!!

Even though the game is small, it's more interesting than many others. There are a few small, confusing moments, as a player, but if they can be refined, it will be perfect. Overall, the game is captivating. This OST is stuck in my head.

Bit too much space bar mashing but fun, being able to hold it would have been great..
Art was cute, I like the use of purple mixed with white for the ghosts. Enemies type a little limited but I like what we got.

Submitted

Great gameplay and visual style. You've perfectly captured the retro aesthetic. The music is excellent. I wish there were more enemy types.

I loved the graphic universe. It's a very nice pixel art work. The gameplay was rather fun, good entry for this jam.

Neat art and audio, but the gameplay could use some balance, if you get the ghost girl and a swarm of little ghosts at the same time, then you're doomed to take some damage either way.

Also, it gets a bit repetitive fast, so here are some random ideas I came up for making the game more varied:

  • A ghost you have to touch but NOT attack.
  • The shrine teleporting to another platform each X seconds.

Really great submission! Solid art, animations, and gameplay! I like that the onryo with lots of health forces you to move around the map a little and try to take out ghosts early instead of just camping the gem and spamming. There's really good feedback when your hits strike the ghosts and the movement controls feel really nice. Especially being able to hit down to go through platforms. I think the only problem I had was that spamming the attack tired out my arm haha.

Great submission overall!

I found the space bar for attach rather than jump a little confusing. I like the art and music tho!

My poor space bar haha. Nice short cute shrine defence game. Some extra abilities would have been nice like a whole map slash or something that you build up by attacking maybe. Good job though!

Developer

That is such a cool idea!!! Thank you!

Submitted(+1)

The game mechanics are clear and simple, enjoyable and beautiful. Well done! It's great.

Developer

Thank you for playing our game!! Glad you had fun!

I love the art that you guys drew for this game! I was confused on how I was supposed to repel the onryo away from the shrine until I realized that you have to defeat her before she reaches the shrine. Otherwise, you'll suffer the consequences. 

Great jam submission! 

Developer

Thank you so much! <3

Fun little game! The art is amazing and sound design and music is great! The lady ghost is kinda hard to deal with, though, and attack range is very short, but still a fun game!
