Really enjoyed the intro, this game has some charming writing!
I like the interpretation of the theme, your health being a quota is really clever. I also adore the idea of having a larger level that you gradually get to explore more of the stronger you get.
I did notice some issues though. Since the quota scales with your maximum ectoplasm (or at least that's how I think it might work) it could simply get too hard really quick. This behaviour also punishes people who might want to take risks and get a lot of ectoplasm early on. I also often lost way more ectoplasm than I was supposed to, which made it a little hard to get further into the game.
There is definitely potential here and I love the ideas. Keep it up!
