It says "Fatal Error!" when I try to start it

Great game, at first I thought the ground ghouls were jumppads so I went over them for fun until I died and realized what they are xD The mood is great, music feels like a zelda game and graphics are really neat. The gameplay though is not something I would do for long, it could need a bit of a challenge like something that haunts you or you have to fight. It's a relaxing game though, well done <3

I think you managed to nail the theme and mood pretty well!

The game looks, plays and feels good but it lacks some kind of action. I have completed it on the first attempt with 1 hp left after losing 2 at the very beginning to the underground hands. As ZenBreaker said, something that will haunt you would be great for the game. It shouldn't necessary be well-designed zombie with pathfinding, a scary slow ghost that flying through the graves directly to the player will do the trick. Also it may appear after like 3 souls and become faster after every 2 next. Overall the game is good as it is now and I can't say I was absolutely bored beating it for the first time.

Nice music.

I like the controls and overall visual themes. It's definitely more difficult than I expected, but I welcome the challenge. While the music is a bit simple, it fits quite well ♪♫♪♫. I wish the orbs/souls changed color permanently after retrieving them. Well done. :)

I really liked the music and sound effects - really set the mood. Could have used a bit more gameplay. The ghosts following you around was a nice touch

Great game, and the character is adorable!

What a cute death :) I like the cute short intro. Music and sounds are relaxing and gentle. First time I just randomly run and get lost, then I try to go slow to avoid those trap, it's very considerable to show direction if one takes too much time for searching. Good job!

Loved the style and mood of this! It's always great seeing a solid entry in 3D for a compo, and the character was so well done and the game fun to play.

Very cute and polished. It even has an intro cinematic! Great work

I was worried it'd be kind of intense when I saw how dark it was, but it was pretty relaxed. The music and the main character sound effects gave it a really nice vibe, and I had a fun time running around collecting souls.

Appreciated that it'd give me a hint when I was taking too long. But along the same line kind of wish there was more variety in the terrain / some sort of landmark I could use to align myself with.

Good visual. Interesting style and concept. Sweet death) Good work.

Due to the inverted Y-Axis the camera controls were a bit difficult but other than that, good game :D.

@kreshi If you somehow missed the camera settings that were on the main menu then I don't know what to tell you:
