Labyrinth Looper by RegularSalamander
You're a frog? Yes.
Hop around an infinite labyrinth on a single screen, the walls shifting where you can't see. But don't go too fast or you'll run into a ghost.
Items, like keys, shields, and torches, will help you get around the labyrinth, but the main point is collecting coins - and surviving.

The ever-changing maze and the limited vision is pretty cool.
The game seems pretty bland after a while, but the pickup of the sudden light-source made me put in an extra bunch of minutes.
The score counter is really nice :D
You've got my 5/5, congrats for such an amazing game :D
The art is nice as well. The light effect is very pleasing to look at and I like the coin counter, it reminds me of the satchel in *Kingdom: New Lands*.
I like the way ghosts and keys interact: Since you need a key to exit the current corner of the labyrinth (maybe a coincidence?), only carrying a shield isn't a viable strategy. This forces you to engage with the ghosts. Although leading them away can get a little tedious, the subsequent chase and frantic search for a new shield is a welcome change of pace. I didn't really find a use for the torch, however.
I got a pretty sizeable stash on my last attempt :)

All in all, great take on this theme!

That's insane! I never thought that many coins was possible, it's at least 4 times my own high score. I can't imagine what the game was like with that many ghosts.
At first I didn't notice that the walls were shifting, only after my first run. Got me quite confused there :D
Good work overall.
Here's the coins I was able to collect before dying :)
