Fun once I figured out how to play. There are so many candles and flowers scattered around that can't be picked up that I thought the game was broken.

Also, on one attempt I spawned near a ghost and got killed while I was reading the tutorial text. You ought to be invulnerable until you click through it.

Lots of polish, seemed a bit too spread out at times. but very well done

I had such a great time! Fun little game, but the thing I liked the most is that when you do this sequence : Up-Down-Up-Up (pause for a moment) Down-Up-Down-Down , you can see Craneo Loco dance to the very nice music!

I was a little confused at first at what I could and couldn't pick up. I could only find 10 of the 12 ghosts. The visuals were nice though and the music made me smile. Nice job.

Nice work! The graphics and music were pretty nice, especially the rolling dust effect and the candles. The movement was a bit difficult, it was either a bit too slow or a bit too fast (with shift held down). Some simple sound effects would have livened it up a lot as well, I think.

Man the map is huge and controls are a bit funny, maybe if I rotate by mouse it be easier to play and strafing would be nice too.

Nice theme, the turning while running mechanic needs some polish. Nice cellshading style.

Map was too big and I didn't manage to find all the ghost. Great polish and quality for a ludum dare game though. Excellent!

The art and animation are cool.
Collision for pickup is to small.
Well done!!

Was difficult to figure out what could be picked up at first, a little highlight or glow around grab-able objects would help with that. Not sure if it was just laggy input controls but it almost felt like the angles at which you could face were fixed?

Good graphics, good audio, good theme, good gameplay idea and would work better with a few minor adjustments.

Nice job, but it can take a while to find items.

Nice graphics. You should polish the controls and improve a lot your level design by intentionally placing the candles, kiosks and gravestones as pathways to guide the player to all the ghosts scattered around.

Make paths of candles, place ghosts under kiosks, align the gravestones in a more regular way.

Nice art style, I like how it seems almost pencil drawn with those outlines. My only quibble is, that music is horrible! Well done, and thanks.

Pretty meh game, cool little music loop.

Controlling the protagonist was a bit ugly.
