Very funny concept! I included it in my Ludum Dare 45 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look :) https://youtu.be/jQitKM0J6Yc

Awww, I made a friend! (that was weird)
This game has a lot of charm, and the play on the name made me chuckle. Kept throwing the keys in front of the guy like 'why won't you pick them up >:C' until I realized I had to hand them to him xD Oh well! That's what I'm like when I'm sleepy too. Great job!

Cute game. I loved the ending. Glad you didn't decide to go with a dark one. Thanks for sharing it with us on the stream last night!

Cute ghost. The grab controls were a bit difficult.

nice fire effects .. ghost animation is smooth, though the human animations were a bit laggy in here ... the pop up conversation bubles were very cute too

The movement, grabbing things and detecting if the active goal was reached could be smoother, but otherwise a nice plot and game.

Nice game, but hard to play when you don't have a qwerty keyboard ;)

Nice little game! I didn't realize I was "helping out and getting the resident ready for work" until I read the description afterwards. It's quite cute actually! :smile:

Very cute and fun game! It doesn't have anything to do with the theme as far as I can tell, but I really enjoyed playing it. It was hard to tell that the keys were keys. I thought it was a ribbon at first.

Haha what a very interesting game and cool take on the theme! Everything works really nicely and I'm amazed you found a bunch of different ways to take the mechanic of being a ghost!

Cute little game! It took me a little while to find the keys, as to me they initially looked like some yellow plushy.
