The concept is really cool and I think matches the GMTK theme really well!
I've had a hard time with the platforms, or rather, the physics. The hunters don't jump too high so it was hard finding a low enough ghost to absorbs.
It felt like a cool concept game for multiplayer as well. I can't wait to see what you do with this after GMTK is over :)
Good luck!
Really cute game :) The art is super cute and the whole Vibes were great.
There are a few bugs:
1. Walking behind the walls
2. After clicking on the cauldron, I exited, and the create button didn't disappear, and I couldn't do anything else in the game.
3. (After restarting the game) I couldn't actually create something in the cauldron, and there was no indication telling me the ingredients were wrong.
It's a fun concept! It took me a while to understand that the achievements are hinting me how to pass the level. I think my confusion came from some level are passible with an achievement? Is that on purpose or is that a bug?
I also liked the 8-bit animations, and the platforming physics. I read from the comments down below it's not what you wanted exactly, but I liked that the up arrow gives me a bit more wiggle room when I jump XD
Great submission!
