It's a fun concept to have the ghosts harass the players! The game could use a bit more in terms of explanation though, it took me a bit to figure out.

How does your game fit the theme?
It's a horror themed game that puts you in the role of the Monster(in this case a ghost)

Like the concept! Game crashed at 226 bpm so I assume your end screen is bugged based on your other comments.
Would like a UI for the abilities because I didn't know how much they all cost to use and it felt like there wasn't much in the way of tactics, rather just whisper and become visible when you can. Other ways to scare like knocking things down etc would be neat.
Good job!
Thanks! Thinking about it, the game over screens were somewhat of a last minute addition so they may actually be bugged.
And yeah, if I decide to polish this up I'd add some icons to the screen to indicate when an ability is ready, how much it costs, and whether it's available as well. There's a cooldown for each one.
You can actually knock things down! For instance, the objects on the tables in the piano room are all interactable. They don't really do much except pick a random direction and move slightly(also all of them move at once for some reason?) but they are interactable.
Cool idea! Managed to get the heartrate to about 240 and then my game crashed... It was probably a very coincidental bug, but I'll take it as a meta level thing and say that it ended, because the adventurer died, since I was just too spooky c(●◡●c )>
Neat idea, and great art. I appreciate that the ghost was floaty, though I would've liked more clear feedback on what I was meant to do and how well I was doing it in-game. I ended up making a new friend haha
Pretty fun game, game crashed when I tried to use the piano. Controls felt a little clunky in my opinion. Overall fun experience. The whisper with some actual voice lines was a great touch!
