That was fun! Good work on the art and growing mechanics, and the way those interfered with the attacking ghosts. It took a bit to get the hang of it, but I gave it a few tries once I understood it better. It played well on the joypad, too, except I found dealing with the camera to distract from the game. I didn't beat it after a handful of tries, either, but I may still try again.
Great work on your first GWJ submission!
