Turn 0n D@ Gohst Z0n€ by dubsol

[raw]
made by dubsol for LD 39 (JAM)

You've been hearing a lot of bumps and creaks in tha night and wonder if maybe some ghouls are in ur house. Da only way 2 find out is by turnin off tha power .....

A mainly artwork based short linear story about turning off your lights and seein some spooky stuff. The only controls you need are your mouse and WASD. If you think it's an artistic commentary on something, it's not it's just really dumb.

You could probably beat it in 20 seconds if you wanted 2

Oh man, this game was short but absolutely hilarious. I really enjoyed the humor and the art was absolutely amazing.

You know those eyes that look through the floor board, the ones in the second screenshot. They render on top of the player, which I'm guessing wasn't intended. Only issue with the game overall, short but sweet, and really funny.

What a treat! Genuinely funny game. Graphics were all over the place, which was a good thing in this case; I never knew what to expect! Sound design was great too.

This game is way, way cool! I love the pixel art and the music. It's really funny too. Could this be the next Undertale?

There are cats in the soundtrack. Dogs too? Really cute and clever game. I love to see random stuff show up in LD, but it would be pretty neat if there were more gameplay here :)

I played this on stream at https://www.twitch.tv/videos/163569305 00:30:20

Haha love the audio (the tune is stuck in my head now) and the art. It was a fun experience :)

I'll have you know that after seeing people's comments, I purposely turned on my desktop so I can play this on Windows. It's short, but no regrets. If you keep up the quirkiness and humor and make it long, I can totally see myself playing through and enjoying the whole thing! Great job :)

Reminds me of Undertale with a mix of Stranger Things. Overall, liked it!

Very undertale-esque, made me smile while playing. Very endearing artwork.

Well, this was a cute entry. It may have been short, but it also has potential for a full-fledged game.
