Very difficult game, but a well-designed one. You really have to think carefully in order to get through certain portions of the level, as each movement points are crucial. Great jam submission!

What a great game idea, I love it! It's genuinely really good! Having to think about every step to reach the goal is clearly a difficult thing to pull off, but it works so well!

Submitted

Very fun, very puzzle.

I spent wayy too long playing this, which is testament of how fun it is! I really had to crack the ole’ noggin’ open and actually think about possible ways to solve the puzzles which is fun!

I like the graphics and I can see this being a full fledged game! Really spectacular work for a jam game! ^^

Submitted

Really charming artstyle! really liked playing it, however i did get stuck after obtaining the spider form, i had no idea where to go since it seemed i always ran out of steps, really liked the concept of the game as a whole, thank you for submitting!

Thanks for your feedback!

When you get the spider, you can repair the nearest web, then walk back to the candelabrum and move to that web so you will have just enough steps!

Very well done puzzle game!! I got all the apples except the one behind the 30 pumpkin. Great job!!

This game is interesting, I like the puzzle aspect a lot. Very cool visuals, good job submitting a game for the jam!

One of the more strategic games uploaded to the jam.

Really good mechanics and design! It took me ages but I beat it. Very clever :)

Such a cute and simple game!

I really love how it’s designed so that retrying never feels frustrating or overwhelming.
It’s a puzzle that takes a bit of trial and error, but thanks to the frequent save points, it never felt difficult or tiring.
I can really tell that you put care into making sure players don’t feel stuck or uncomfortable.
It’s a truly charming game — and the ghost is absolutely adorable! Seriously, so cute

Very charming and simple puzzle game, interesting premise as well, I do wish the controls were a little more obvious, specifically the interact controls. You do have the popups under the interact: text but it's kinda small and I didn't notice it right away which was kinda annoying (also kinda my fault but still). regardless, a very simple and easy to pick up game that makes for some quick fun and reminds me of snake in a small way, great work!

Fun..

I feel should say more but I can't think of more so that's what I've got.

T'was fun.

Notice:

A critical bug has been found! 😭
I’ve already fixed it, but since this is my first game jam, I’m not sure how to upload the patched version yet.
So please don’t use the spider ability when its remaining steps are 0 — instead, press R to roll back.
Otherwise, you may encounter a bug where you can’t switch abilities and will need to restart the game.

Thanks for your understanding!

Nice puzzle game, this was so well-polished! Could definitely see this being scaled into a larger game post-jam :)

Amazing

Interesting little puzzle game. Unfortunately I encountered a softlock which prevented me from switching forms after obtaining the spider. Aside from that, the game was awesome!

Keep up the good work!
