I just realized that I forgot to actually set it up to save high scores!  Well luckily thats an easy one and I'll upload a fixed rom after the jam.  I don't think that they will save if you play via a browser, but they at least will save on a Game Boy or Pocket.  I only give you 10 seconds to view the high scores and then switch over to the credits, or if you hit any button it will switch then.  I don't really want to require you to push something as I'd rather move you along to the start of the game.  But perhaps I should make it so if you are on the intro scene for more than 15 seconds it takes you to the high scores, kind of like how it would on an arcade cabinet.  In fact, I may start adding that feature to all of my games.  Would also mean that if I decide to add the Konami code to this game, you'd have to enter it somewhat quickly which would be alright.  Just need to think up what it will do, I suppose it could just stop the clock at 0 and not kill you so you are guaranteed to finish.

I'm actually a little surprised that the platformer portion gave you the most trouble.  I admit there are a couple tricky jumps, but they are all quite doable once you figure out where the edge is.  The key is that you can't be running in slo-mo after getting possessed by a ghost, then even the smallest jumps become impossible, got to wait until those effects wear off.  And those invisible holes at the end aren't entirely invisible, there actually is a visual cue, but theres no way you'll figure it out before you fall thru the first one.  I added that as sort of one last unexpected challenge, and really like how it happens above the broken platforms so that you risk falling multiple levels at the end.  But at least I was nice and didn't put any ghosts up there!

Ah no no I didnt mean save as in on browser I just meant save like so it stays on screen unless I hit any specific key, I just wanted to take a screenshot of my score thats all.That sounds like an interesting idea. And yes I was trying to avoid to ghosts but am pretty sure I hit almost all of them XD, like even when I succesfully managed to dodge some I fell from the above level and then they got me, stuff like that. Thats true if there were ghosts up there I would have to replay the game from start again XD

Since all the cutscenes progress without hitting buttons I didn’t want to require a button on the high scores (I originally did and didn’t like it). But I just uploaded new files last night, so now if you wait 15 seconds on the title screen it’ll change to the high scores.
