Spook or Treat

  • It’s a 2D PIxel, tower defence kind of game.
  • Story is You play as the ghost of Young Girl who loved Halloween, on each Halloween you used to Collect many Candies.  But you die in some mysterious  ways, but death is not the end, you become ghost. the candies are still in the house
  • Now you have to control the house and things in it to spook these kids and stop them from taking your candies.
  • If they get the candy, you lose…if you manage to spook all kids, then you win.

MECHANICS

  • Game start by Kids entering into a room from a door, and they wonder around the room in search of candies. Each kid has a Bravery meter that once empty, the kid will faint and considered OUT.
  • The player only needs to use the MOUSE and click on spooky things to activate them. These things are placed all around the house in the form of furniture or electronics etc.
  • Each spooky thing has a range and if any KID is in the range when it gets activated then the kid will be SPOOKED, and its Brave meter will go down.
  • Each spooky thing has a different level of SPOOKINESS, meaning some can spook more than others. And once spook it will need time to recharge, also recharge time is also different for each thing.
  • Kids will come in waves, some kids will be faster than others and some have higher Spook meter than others.

hi! did you all create the music yourselves during the jam?

(1 edit)

yeah, we have a member who almost recorded all SFX and also make that Halloween music as well

also all art as well (just those kids characters were from another game that was made by us as well)

Interesting and fun concept, I played the game on mobile Android.

-A bit too challenging for a game jam.

-Main menu is a bit bland.

-How to play menu has some grammar issues.

-You should add more tags to get more exposure on the page.

-I don't see a timer to see how long until I win or how many kids to spook until there's no one left.

-There isn't any settings menu to control the volume.

-Sometimes the kids take little damage I think, is this random? It also depends of the type of kid it seems, if it has a random element it could be a little bit frustrating.

-I didn't notice any bugs.

Good job to your team, this is a nice spooky short game, I liked the visuals, mechanics and music.

thanks for the detailed feedback, many things you mentioned was in our todo list but we just didn’t get much time. but we will add it later.

and different kind of kids do have different speed and health.

and we made it a bit hard to finish because we want player to try it 2-3 times just so he can enjoy each spooky things. plus we suggest try it on PC once….it’s bit easy there

glade you like it and we will surely update it more

overall good game, but one thing that i confused is i didn't know how long the game is..i played it for 5 minutes but there is no sign that will be end...or if this endless game i think it would be nice if you have highscore for the longest time

hey, thanks for feedback. the game do have end(around 30 kids/enemy in total)

we do plan to add counter but didn’t have much time. but will add soon
