Great art and concept! Is there anywhere to hide during the day?

Great art and concept! Is there anywhere to hide during the day?
love the art.. and interesting concept.. i didnt really get what to do during the day tho.. still enjoyed it!
Good graphics and funny!
hahaha guru guru has a really good twist. worth playing
I love this game, seems to be simple but hard as hell. Okay, you can abuse the path-finding to collect Pompoms during day but thats a minor problem. The whole presentation is great. Very, very well done.
@Just_delete_it / @futuristelex : sorry, a bug with cloud on some config, I fix it yesterday :)
@GagaPete : Hehe, there is no pathfinding in this game, but I also abuse it when I played haha ! It's a pat of the charm and will be great to complete some challenge ( not enought time to add this feature during the ludum :( )
Very cool. The time cycles are very well done as well, since they change the gameplay completely.
loading got stuck for me in firefox.
Nice entry! it deserves more visits
This has a great feel to it! I survived for cca 5 days most... Escaping during the day is quite hard. Transition to night is cool! :D
@kibertoad : Thanks ! Bug fixed :)
Arigatoooo others, happy to see people get fun ! :D
Great graphics and the gameplay reminded me of PacMan for some reason. It would be cool if you could hide under the shadows of the clouds during the day.
I really like the art and music in this game, very charming! Very creative presentation as well: the sun and moon display above the screen and the emoticons in the intro. Unique game mechanic.
Great take on the theme too!
I lasted 5 days, I'm a disappointment to Guru-Guru :(
@brobutter : actually the cloud protect from the sun ( else your spirits leave you even if no ennemy touch you ) but some new cloud mecanics as well as more ennemy during the day and night will be nice yeah !
Beautiful art, good music, neat idea but SUPER hard, though it felt kinda fair for the ghost to get justice because he kills so much at night :P. My high score is 50 pompoms!
excellent art! confusing game and pretty slow though.
WOW! This is one of the most polished entries I've seen! I did mange to somehow break out of the map, though.
@Hayawi : Did you play it on chrome ? It shoudn t be slow..
Awesome graphics and nice concept! :)
Wow so great! Wonderful music, excellent character design, fun mechanic, nostalgic! :)
Played it some more, actually, running away at night isn't that hard, got to 180 or so eaten crabs :) I feel bullied over day :(
Wow I really liked the art on this and the game was fun! My only complaint is that during the day due to not being able to fly over grass it was a little difficult XD. Nice job!
this was fun I got 66
Music still works.
This game looks and sounds really funny, but doesn't display game graphics after the loading screen in my Opera 12.
LOVE the main character design. interesting idea, but it it seems like it could use better collision detection and controls.
The concept is really cool. It's pretty stressful when the sun rises with the pompoms, but it also gave me the envy to eat them all at night :)
Also, I played on firefox and it was fine
Awesome game, I like how it matches the theme. Art and music is good too.
Ahah, That's like LD25 theme (You are the villain) mixed with this LD27 !
Very good art and awesome game mecanisms.
That was absolutely awesome. The pixel art style is astounding. The only thing I didn't like was how hard it was to escape during the day.
Confusing at first and day time is a pain but good graphics and audio.
Fun game, great art and great music !
A great game, amazing pixel graphics and cool music and FX. Easy to learn, hard to master. I love it. 5 stars.
I enjoyed this game.
I liked the graphics, music/sfx, and gameplay. It was a bit hard at first but once the right spot was found it became easy.
I would have liked to see an overall objective such as collect X pompom souls. Or stay alive for X days.
More levels could have prolonged the fun (but then there's the time constraints).
Played on Firefox 23 with no apparent problems.
Overall it was much fun.
Very nice little game, the art style is great, Gameplay reminds of variation of pacman, overall very good!
Thanks guys for feedback !
We agree with the majority, the level design should give a better learning curve.
Happy to see it works on firefox :D
I love the art and music. It compliments the game-play well.
Must eat more pompoms.
@gear : Yeah guruguru ! :D
Great art and concept and fun. Super hard to survive the day though.
loved this game! =) awesome mosters =) good job sir!!
Nice universe you've created here.
I really appreciate the dual gameplay.
I found a bit difficult the day part since the creatures are really fast, but I really dig the fact that we can't go through grass and that we need to think about it during the night.
fun game 5 stars!
it was hard at first, though once I figured out the safe route, I can pretty much play this game indefinitely without fear of ever dying :P. played it for half a hour then stop at day 71 with 563 Pompoms eaten.
though I would like to report a little bug, there are one flower that have chance of spawning out of the map in the screenshot here.

@Kimidori : 71 days ?!!! Oh my god.. you deserve all ur respect sir :)

Cool art and concept and fast as hell! That are the best ones!
Awesome!
