Hey there, summoner (or should I say, "summoned"?). You've stumbled upon the quirkiest, most unconventional game in this Ludum Dare jam. Get ready for a spectral adventure that'll leave you howling for more!

Choose Your Canine Companion

Before we dive into the spectral (let's face it) nonsense, let me tell you, you've got a tough decision to make. Do you fancy yourself a golden retriever enthusiast or are you brave enough to embrace the... unique charm of the Chinese crested? Let me level with you, that Chinese crested? It looks like it lost a fight with an ugly stick. Seriously, if you pick that little furless wonder, you're in for a wild ride. But hey, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, right? Or maybe it's just blind. It's truly the definition of something only a mother can love. (Not my mom tho, her eyes work)

Ghostly Gameplay

Once you've picked your pup (may the force be with you if you choose the Chinese crested), it's time to get down to ghostly business. You start off as a deceased doggo with a mission: summon human to help you out. Use those arrow keys to navigate your spectral ass to the summoning circle. Hit that "E" key to start the summoning ritual. Trust me, it's easier than it sounds. Even if you're a ghost dog with questionable summoning skills.

Kitten Combat

Ah, yes. Every spectral bum sniffers nightmare: mischievous kittens. These fluffy little shits are wreaking havoc in your crib, and it's up to your human to put them in their place. I'm not saying kill, but I'm not saying don't kill. Use "X" to unleash a ghostly spray of water (after collecting the spray bottle of course) and "E" to summon your human pal. Oh, and don't forget about that sink. It's like the Batcave of this haunted house.

Beware the Big Bad Cat

Once you've vanquished the pesky kittens, brace yourself for the ultimate showdown: a turn-based battle against the big boss, Cat. It's a battle of wits, claws, and spectral powers. Win, and you'll earn yourself a one-way ticket to doggy dreamland.

So, are you ready to embark on this bizarre journey with our ghostly protagonist and his... possibly distinctive choice in companions? (I'm talking about the Crested. It's so ugly!) Grab those arrow keys, summon that human, and let's show those kittens who's boss! Just don't blame me if you end up with an inexplicable urge to adopt a Chinese crested after this.
