Oh I'm in love with this! I can see this being a really big puzzley game, like with branching storylines and everything. Maybe if you have plans to make this a full game, there could be something where you have to talk to other spirits or explore places when you're not in a seance? Like Ace Attorney if that makes sense? That might be too hard to make though haha. Either way I really really like this whole concept and I would love to see any sort of continuation! And I really want to help these guys figure out their mystery!
Wow, I love this so much. Legit, if it were a touch and more polished I'd spend money on it. I wasn't able to fully beat it and see everything since it's really hard to spell Frederick backwards with the evil hand interfering, and that seems to be necessary for completion. But I deeply enjoyed what I did play, the presentation was wonderful and the highly branching narrative is exactly my personal jam.

Conquest Of ShadowsFascinating premise with a charming but haunting overall presentation. Was definitely intrigued by the concept early on, and once the demon hand was introduced I was hooked on uncovering the game's secrets (though it did feel a bit difficult to counteract). Would love to see a fleshed out release for this with even more branching paths and mechanics (perhaps other ways the ghost player can interact with the environment). Fantastic job :)

Scrap AttackReally awesome idea and very well done for a 48 hour game jam! I'd love to see a much more expanded version of this. It's so engrossing and I spent much more time on this than I was expecting.
I think I found the secret (is it spelling the 6 letter room and them wondering if they had one?) and if that was it that might have been a little underwhelming, especially after so many attempts. I do think the concept of the demon hand is really cool, but after the initial couple run ins it was really annoying since it's essentially an instant game over require you to start from the very beginning.
Otherwise though for a jam game this is quite excellent! Great work on this!!
This is such a cool game! I think y'all did a great job with the art and sound design and the controls with the Ouija board are so cool! I wish the demon hand wasn't so hard because even though I tried like 7 times I couldn't get far in the game because I kept losing the planchette and couldn't get it back. :^( I think this could definitely be made into a full game post-jam, and would love to see some updates so I can see the end!

Super Street SweeperThis game was spooky haha. This is thanks to both the great art and music. I like that the controls were very intuitive. I just wish that you did not have to start from the beginning after one playthrough. Anyway, I like that a hand comes that forces a choice and the story is very interesting. This was an enjoyable game. Great work!

Jiji BegoneSpooky (not) art! Nice idea though! Loved the game! Check out ours too!

Space Bandit: Asteroids Strike BackSuch a unique idea and I loved the spooky atmosphere! The art is beautiful! This is such a small nitpick because I thought the game was really neat overall but I think just changing the font in the character dialogue boxes would be such a small change that would go a long way! Right now it looks very default but with a more fitting font like a serif and changing the blue color of the character's name to something warmer to fit in with the color palette of the rest of the game I think the visuals would be just that more cohesive!

Market MayhemWow, what an atmosphere! I'm terrified of that grubby little demon hand and the noises it makes, the visuals are amazing, sfx hit the mark, and the input ouija board is very unique. Our game was actually quite similar, playing as a dead person and manipulating objects, but instead we made the tone a lot lighter. This game's tone was a great contrast! Couldn't solve the mystery, even with the hint you gave in the comments though! I have no clue where the will is... :(
This was a really great game, looking forward to a post-jam version if you're doing one!

I Am A Superstar!Aw! But that grubby little demon hand loves you! ^^ haha! I’ll have to check out your game! I love seeing other peoples’ ghost/spooky related interpretations of this year’s theme. It’s okay that you didn’t find the will! A lot of people have been stumped by the clue. I wish itch.io had a why to put a spoiler bar in the comments. THANK YOU so much for taking the time to play through it!!
I think there is a way to do spoliers! If you go to the description of your game, click the angle brackets for HTML in the formatting bars, and add
<details>
<summary>SPOILERS:</summary>
this is where spoilers go
</details>
to wherever you want the spoiler and then click the angle brackets again, it'll add a little dropdown menu that needs to be clicked before people see the "this is where spoilers go" part!
Yeah np!! Finally got through the end w the second spoiler, so thank you for making this game! (I actually originally saw it on another game, cant take the credit for it!)
I have been immersed in this game for the last hour... I didn't even win haha!
I am quite bad at playing but it was a TON of fun! Great game, amazing art, fitting sounds and story!
5 out of 5 everything! Added to my collection. Hope to see more games like this!
