Creepy game. Ballet and ghost girls. Lots of fun, well done.
I enjoyed it so much! I really love tchaikovsky and ballet. So this one really is my jam. Great idea and great game. Well done! ^^
Thanks for liking the game.
I really enjoyed it, a horror game themed after ballet is pretty rare, as far as I'm aware! It's very original. And Tchaikovsky is always a pleasure to listen to!
If you were to make a longer version, it'd be really cool to get little hints about what happened to the kid, why she's haunting miss Pirouette, etc... just little details that would make the horror that much poignant.
It was really fun.
Thanks for the suggestion.
This is very unique, and mad respect for the visual effects on the mirrors, you managed to pull it off very well. I say it was quite fun game and well as said, unique way to present spot-the-difference mechanic. I quite enjoyed the twist at the end too, and children laughing always bring unnerving vibes. I enjoyed playing this ^^ Good work.
Just heads up about few bugs (sorry if there is repeat, it seems others have noted some bugs too). If you fail and reset the game no ghost spawn in the mirrors anymore, you have to reload the page to try again. And there is nothing stopping you from walking off the map, but that's like minor bug. Honestly the idea is nice so you could develop this whole game further, add variations to ambience, maybe make it so that the hallway loops or something, so all the best wishes in case you develop this further ^^
Thank you for the suggestions and playing the game.
My lord I replayed the game for like 15 minutes wondering if I was being silly for not spotting something obvious, guess it was bugged xd
it's a very original take on the theme of the jam, has sort of suspiria vibes on it. the gameplay is not super easy to understand first or maybe i just missed something but it's great to see this kind of twist on the theme
Thanks for liking the game.
I dont know if there was something broken, or maybe i just could not figure out what to do? I was clicking everywhere, even using A/D trying all combinations, but either i was stuck on "tutorial"? or i immediately died. Also, just a recommendation, it would be better if text was more contrast :) But i love the classic music in the game.
Hmm if you are in the room of potraits, that must be your light ran out in the beginning of the game.
Not sure if this was a bug or not but after getting the hair piece and walking to the right, the entire screen just went black with not much happening until my light ran out and i died.
Generally a pretty basic but interesting idea for a game. It's basically just spot the difference but with a walking mechanic. I think it gets kind of tedious towards the end though when youre looking for that last piece youre missing and i didn't really feel the horror. Cool idea though.
I got no time to add boundaries... yeah its a bug. But thank you for playing.
Love the setup and the atmosphere, and the way you've done the mirrors is really cool!
I think it was a bit broken for me though - the first time I played the ghost was in the first mirror and I was able to just click on it over and over until I won, then every time I played after that I wasn't able to find the ghost at all (but maybe the change in reflection was just too subtle for me?)
Great entry though!
Hmm... thanks for letting me know.
Miss Pirouette making trades out here
Thanks for playing the game.
