Viability: the game is playable from start to end, with mechanics that go well beyond class demos. While the jumping challenges are a bit on the difficult side, I found the gameplay expressive overall. I would have liked to see something a bit less linear, with paths that have one more than one solution. Overall, solid stuff.
Presentation: expressive art and charming music. More variety in enemy design and world building could help create a stronger theme, but I can see the effort and care in crafting the assets. The final NPCs are a nice touch, although I would have liked to see some unique background elements also.
Theme: is a straightforward platformer with a simple story, but I do find it curious that the enemies and the MC are ghosts, and that the world seems distorted. Is a bit of an 8-bit nightmare look, which is definitely worth exploring further. There are only a few examples of lo-fi spooky games, so yours is definitely feels fresh.
Engagement: Hard, but not enough to want make me want to quit. More levels would be good, and as I said, more visual variety and reward. Keep in mind that hhen your player wants more, that's a good thing! Keep it up
Very cute game. I was a little confused as to why there were no balloons to collect despite it being the goal behind the game. I think it would have been interesting to actually implement them as a resource that can be depleted. I got stuck on the second level between the two moving platforms- as the up and down one was synced to not be high enough to jump to the fast side to side one when it was in range. Overall cute visuals and the music adds a lot to the game.
The music adds a really nice touch. I really like the textures. I would have liked to see the main sprite be set apart a little more visually from the other ghosts. The physics are really sensitive and I found the game just a little too difficult for me personally.
Its cute and adorable game. The artwork is beautiful. The jumping is a bit sensitive and the platforms are a bit far apart at the beginning but other than that great game and fun.

oh no I thought I fixed that but it’s invisible for some reason! The balloon I mean. Thanks for letting me know!
