Love the character designs, animations, dialogue closeups and overall aesthetic. Really nice stuff. The new layers of music being added as you progress is amazing, the alternate version for when you’re controlling the ghosts is such a nice touch too. Very fun game with a nice progression of puzzle complexity!

Wow this was a blast!  The visuals and music make the puzzle solving really fun to engage in, really enjoyed the variety of ghosts we got to play with. Really like how Mary is just in 100% go-mode, I felt so bad for Big George XD

This was such a trip. Definitely one where if this was the demo, I would be buying the full game! And the secret ending made us all laugh out loud.

The gameplay mechanic was very easy to pick up on and made for some fun puzzles. That would have been more than enough but the red ghosts added a whole other shocking and surprising  layer. Very fun.

You really brought Mary Margaret to life with that model and dialogue. The core gameplay mechanic is super imaginative and this definitely feels like one of those little indie games that could gather a huge following.  And nice music to sneak around to!

Among the most interesting mechanics of the jam imo. The presentation and camera work was also top-notch. One of my favorites this year for sure.

Mary is ruthless! Awesome game! I love the characters and style! Also, the first time you get a red ghost *wink*, was the highlight of the jam for me!

This game was one of my favorites from the jam. I love the way the ghost mechanic was used and the gradual progression introducing new mechanics, it was a great mashup of stealth and puzzle. The story was funny, all of the characters were well represented and I love the models and the art style. Great presentation overall, and a special shout out to the music and sound design that are top notch. Had a lot of fun with this one, great work!

Loved the different ghost puzzle mechanics! Damn I feel bad for Big George. I'll have to come back and try to find DSD later!

No spoilers but there was a certain moment in this game in which I was shocked and delighted. Really great job, from the mechanics to the cutscenes! I *was* hoping there was a secret for destroying all the pots, but the DSD ending makes up for it. Also, poor Big George. That little guy had so much heart.

Great minds think alike, I was actually thinking of adding a third ending for breaking all the pots when Melanie shows up and gets mad at you. But just getting the game done in time was a squeeze sadly.

Fantastic use of the main mechanic with cool variations on abilities. The final one shocked me. I was not expecting it to get as dark as it did.

Just all around excellent.  Loved the central theme and all the characterizations.  I legit gasped towards the end at some of the puzzle escalation

This one is great. Love the style, particularly the depictions of the main characters. Really did the premise justice, and DSD genuinely cracked me up. Fantastic job all round.
