Collect wisps and bring them to the 12 shrines scattered around the map to reset the lock timer on the corresponding zone. If the time runs out on a zone, it will be locked forever and attempting to enter it will kill you. Delay the inevitable and survive as long as you can. The mini-map in the top right shows the zone time left. How long can you survive?

Cool platformer you have here. Impressive. I like the sound design, really puts me as a player in the mindset of the skeleton. Kinda hard to figure out what the goal was but reading the description helped. Good work.

The platforming is decent. However, the wisps fly away from the player and very easily fly to parts of the map that can't be reached. Also, the font used is on the instructions is difficult to read.

Love the trippy visuals (especially the huge monster's face on the left side) and 💀spooky scary💀 atmosphere in this. Nice work!

Fun sound effects and theme! I absolutely love this skeleton! While playing, I often forget to collect the sprites, maybe other collectibles would be better.

Welcome to play our game and please leave a comment!(*^▽^*)

Definitely agree with the music, it's bangin'! Had some troubles with the platformer controls, though. You're so tall, and some spaces are so claustrophobic! Really tough to get through, bumped my skull on a lot of things. But the idea of finding random collectibles to keep the platforms up was a neat idea, and executed well. Nice work!

Pretty fun, hard a hard time using the hook to fish, but once that worked, the game was nice.
Overall a solid project, Gg !
