Wow, what a very interesting and atmospheric game, the art style is very unique and the music and sfx are very well chosen, well done!

Super cool! I love the music and SFX it fits the atmosphere very well. Lots of fun humor as well and cool secrets too like the cat in the grass! Amazing how this was made in a week!

I did find a collider issue at the bridge where I could just go around it and find a bunch of empty space. Movement also feels a little slow but that's just a preference since the slow movement fits the game very well. Maybe if possible make the map a little smaller so there isn't so much travel time?

Haven't actually finished playing the game yet (just got to the apartment) so I'll try my best to finish it!

Edit: Found it strange that the game just closed after the Will. Was there anything that I missed?

Epic game, wouldn't be surprised if it was one of the top games. The art is amazing, the music is really cool (especially how it changes based on location), the easter eggs are epic, and the story is awesome. I only have two complaints:
1. It is a bit time consuming to walk to different parts of the map (maybe you get a dash or fast travel ability from your apartment).

2. The will scrolled really fast so it was a bit hard to read and I think the game closed right as it finished scrolling (not sure if that was intentional or a crash).

Other than that, the game is top-teir and it's crazy that you managed to make the whole thing by yourself!

Loved the game. The jokes were very good , the art style was great, and the music was calm. I think a few extra puzzles would have been nice to have but it was great either way.

Very charming, I loved playing and was impressed by how much there was to do!

Loved the story and the artstyle, they are so cosy! Hauting mechanic is neat. Soundtrack is cool and you even made different themes for different locations. I enjoyed finishing the game and admire the work you've done :)

I love this game, the style, the music, the gameplay. I do wish I could move faster by perhaps flying through the trees or something haha. I am a little stuck. I've gone around and interacted with everything and I still haven't figured out how to get the garden or the letter, but I'm going to keep trying. Excellent work.

Very cute game. Love the atmosphere and the writing. The artstyle is quite charming. Also good job on the original music, I especially liked the lo-fi one from the graveyard.

I would have preferred if the gost moved faster. It took a loong time to get across the map. It adds to the atmosphere to spend more time walking through the town but for a jam game I think it's better if it can be finished quickly.

Art and music create a great (and spooky) atmosphere! Love the dialogs and the story
Beautiful game

I loved this game, it was such a simple colour scheme but it was executed so well which is so impressive as well as the dialogue system being easy and fast to use and i love the little ghost character it's just a nice little experience!

I couldn't read the will fast enough, and I had to talk to people twice to finish their quests, or maybe open the will menu multiple times? I also got outside and traversed the entirety of the map's perimeter looking for a letter to deliver. A sprint key would have been really nice, this is a massive town.

The game is awesome, I like it a lot, the music is good, the game and story are fun, and this is a neat style of game.

Quite a nice game was it, graphics were really good even for a steam game

it felt like a ghost town, it got boring pretty quick

This game is amazing and I have no idea how you were able to make a game so polished in a game jam! There's a ton of funny dialogue and I had to stop myself so I could rate more games! The artstyle is amazing and there's multiple songs which change between areas. Keep up the good work!

Interesting interpretation of the theme! I like how looking works, that smoothly.  I enjoyed discovering the world, reading people's minds and haunting places! 

Nice job!

I loved it. Two things to consider; Firstly, there's some collision weirdness happening next to the bridge that allows the player to get to the other side. Second, the Will and Testament scrolls by too fast and I couldn't get it all before the game closed.

Otherwise, this was wonderful, thanks for making it.

The games really nice! Was a bit slow to get around from place to place but was fun to haunt things and explore around

I'm a bit biased for a great-sounding lo-fi game -- so right out of the gate, I was a fan of this game's atmosphere. Equally, I was a fan of the art style and simplistic gameplay. The vibe is very on point here, and would like to see this game more fully fleshed out (no pun intended). I don't mean to imply that I didn't enjoy myself in this world -- it matches the theme of "You're Not Alone" perfectly in a very clever way.

what a nice little interesting RPG! Had a nice time wondering around as a ghost reading people's thoughts and such, I wish we had the ability to sprint as it feels a bit slow walking around all the time, you did great job, in 7 days that's very impressive! Story was nice, was fun to fly around as a ghost and read people's thoughts
