A downloadable game for Windows and macOS


Ghosts always have unfinished business. For Hector, he feels he needs to make things right with his family before he can move on, having hurt each of them in small ways before his untimely and unexpected passing.

You play as Hector’s apparition, working to reconcile with each member of your family in the hopes of moving on to the afterlife. But be careful! If your family sees you possessing and moving objects, they will become fearful and call a priest to exorcise you!


How to Play: 

  1. Arrow Keys to Move.
  2. Press E to possess items.


This game was started during the Global Game Jam  2020 and finished afterwards.

Great work fellows! Love the art style, love the hand-drawn look. Your next game should definitely should be more hand-drawn style.

In terms of the gameplay, here are some thoughts.

  1. What’s my goal? Am I just aimlessly exploring my previous home since I passed away? Am I getting the attention of my family?
  2. What does the fear meter on the top have to do with anything? I understood the purpose, I just don’t understand how it fits in with the overall gameplay.
  3. I am an apparition, but I can’t go through walls, doors, or floors? Seems a bit strange. Perhaps you could have some effects with the same color as the character so every time you hit the edge you get some sort of visual feedback. And a sound effect to tell the player that they are limited to a certain space.

I think that it should be more linear, perhaps starting off in one room first, figuring out the puzzle there first before moving on to the next.

Overall ART : 10/10 SOUND DESIGN : 8 /10 GAME DESIGN : 4/10 CONTROLS : 7/10 STORY : 6/10
