The city is invaded by ghosts and souls, and must be purged. Spektra's job.

Were the assets for your game made during the jam? Elaborate as you see fit.
Credits detail assets usage. I'm focusing on dev and assets integration, and I usually use and rework existing assets, which was the case here too.

Everything gels really well together with the art and music but the game does start to get stale after a while. Before it does get stale it was pretty addicting though. Some of the inputs felt a little too "large" like I'd click on a goal and a nearby soul would also register though the slicing motion was a lot more fine tuned. Had a fun time overall thanks for uploading!

Hi Rikugamez,

Thank you for the feedback, always appreciated !

Input and basic gameplay should be improved in the major update I just released. To avoid interfering with the MGGJ8 submissions, I created a new entry 2 weeks ago.  You can find it here, named Touch 'n Ghosts : https://arcade-eleven.itch.io/touch-n-ghosts

Hope you'll enjoy it !

The premisse and the fun clicking part is there. It just gets a bit repetitive. In the end I like it. Everything fits nice together, the sounds and graphics. I tried to play the game without reading what I'm supposed to do and the numbers were kinda crazy but it was ok after I read how to do it.

Hi Madson,

Currently, the game is still a bit repetitive, but offers a clearer objective with a record to break. A major game mechanic is still missing, and should be included in the next update. Together with levels and story, the game should gain some depth. (or at least, I hope so :D)

Hope you'll enjoy it !

music, sfx, and sprites are nice... the gameplay is fun at first but needs something more since you get bored quickly. On desktop the accuracy is not enough, if sprites are too close to each other you will get fails even if you try to nick a corner, but I assume on mobile the accuracy would be bad regardless, so game gives you a bit of lee way with fails....

anyway its nice, but needs some interesting concept or challenge to add to it.

Hi Invadererik,

A major update has been done to the game. Since I was unsure about how updates are managed after closure and I decided to change the name of the game, I created a new entry. 

You can find it here : https://arcade-eleven.itch.io/touch-n-ghosts

I hope you will enjoy it ! :)

Hi BraveKing,

A major update has been done to the game. Since I was unsure about how updates are managed during voting periods, especially since I also decided to change the name of the game, I created a new entry. 

You can find it here : https://arcade-eleven.itch.io/touch-n-ghosts

I hope you will enjoy some more clicks and the new sprites/graphics ! :)

the counter gets confused if you make enough mistakes - I'm playing level -7 and have 2/0 mistakes on screen, probably a sign to stop. but how can I stop? amazing game

The initial problem with the counter was a incorrect value (0 instead of 1) set in a difficulty scaling check. Going below 1/0 was unexpected.
Game mechanics have been improved, and counter management has been adapted.

After messing with the new ghosts, don't break the new counter ! :)
(of course, if you do, let me know :D)
