Why do the ghosts want to vomit on me?? What did I do to them?

Throwing a pillow is a proper response when ghosts vomit on you!

I wish the pillows could be thrown a little faster... I like the ghost graphic!

The way out of the first room was confusing at first, but I figured it out pretty quickly. The small sprites, large number of ghosts, and short weapon ranges give it a nice effect.

Nice little game. Would've been better to move a bit faster, it would probably make it a bit more fun. Nice sprites though, keep it up!

Got 26! its alright, seems stable for a quick fun game

nice little game. congrats on finishing it. one problem i had was the pillow range felt a little too short given how fast and erratic the ghosts move.

Pretty simple game, decently executed.

I really wasn't clear on what the hitboxes were, sometimes a ghost would die with the pillow still a person-length away, other times the ghost would simply phase through the pillow I'd thrown.

You seem to have some code issues as well, Java was throwing some exceptions, and the frame rate or refresh rate was slow, or at least appeared that way when ghosts moved quickly.

This could use some tuning, but the core game is solid. Good work!

Not bad :) It was pretty funny. Overall nice work!

Finished the game.
I think it would be better if pillow has longer range and ghost move slower.
overall, nicely done.

Seems alright, looks like you didn't have enough time to improve it. Keep up good work!

Was a little confused about the ghosts movement, like sometimes they moved through walls other times they didn't. also wish i could throw my pillows a little farther but you play as a scared little girl so it makes sense. over all pretty good game

Pretty simple but maybe a bit harder than expected because of how the ghost's projectiles worked. It could do with some more polish otherwise this is a pretty solid entry.

Pillows really works as real) They take almost no damege to ghost. Otherwise pretty fun game, good job!

Fun game. The ghosts' movement and attacks vs. the girl's movement and attacks builds a good base for a horror-ish game. The graphics seem kind of bright for that kind of mood, if the colors were darker and gloomier it would build that mood a lot. The strange movements of the ghosts makes it challenging and makes them seem more otherworldly.

Fun Gauntlet style game. Those pillows have some punch.
