There, Somewhere by maloki

[raw]
made by maloki for LD30 (COMPO)
Trapped between the living and the dead, this little ghost wanders around to find a way to cross over to the other side.

Controls:
- Space or enter to start the game
- WASD or Arrow keys to move
- R to reset the level

I wanted to put in more levels but ran out of time. Howell!

The game started up in Chrome for me, but neither space nor enter would start! Worked in Firefox though.

I liked the possession of people idea, and the length of the game was good. Plays pretty smooth. The block-pushing when there were lots of them was a bit unfair, it seemed to me, because I couldn't even see off the screen to see whether blocks were going to be pushable--I just had to retry a few times. But I beat it!

Tom 7: I tested it on chrome, and I've encountered that problem as well in other games. Usually happens the first time I load the game. It might have been a focus issue...sometimes, I just refresh the page and then it works. >.>

Was thinking of having per-level camera adjustments but it slipped my mind as I went on to finish the next levels. Will definitely do this when I continue working on it. :D

I like the art style, choice of color, animation and dialogs. It complements the puzzle nicely!

Really sweet little game, I finished it. One of the levels seemed a bit harder (the one with lots of crates), but loved the art, music was nice and gameplay was fast enough to be able to try again when dying. Great job!

I like it. Cool concept that matches the theme pretty well (two worlds - ghost and human/peg thingy). Also good pacing, I was able to figure out what to do in the game rather quickly.

I like the game play. It's very reminiscent of Chips Challenge.

I'm sucker for really good puzzle mechanics and this one is really enjoyable. My only gripe is the camera angle. Would be nice if it is slightly more top down, or maybe add the ability to move it around so I can plan my moves.

This is a game worth expanding! Gooduck!

the game is great! fun puzzle game that makes you think and restart [more restarts in my case :))]. also fun to look at. dunno if it's the colors or the models.
although the learning curve skyrocketed on the 3rd or 4th stage i think?
still nice game! :)

Hi there. Really good graphics, sound. Great puzzle design. Nice and simple to start, good sense of achievement with the more complicated box puzzles.

Really nice puzzle game. I got a few levels in the goal was really caged in by the orange blocks and I couldn't figure out how to use the one dude that was there. The way to play was easy enough to understand, though it wasn't entirely clear why the low dark bars would free you from possessing a human. I'd loved to have seen more levels where the elements of possessing and getting out of possessing along with box pushing were woven together in a smart way. Great beginning of a really nice game. Should work with touch as well...

Very nice entry! Fun to play, I didn't like that you had to run into walls to become a ghost again, but I can see why you did that. Good job!
