too scary D:

reff

in all seriousness, great game, very cute :)

cute game boo bark boo bark

Very cute reverse control scheme. 👻⚔️🐁

The bark feels a little useless, because it doesn't have enough range and it only works with the monsters in front of you, which are exactly the ones you are choosing to ignore to attack in the other direction.

And as said, it has too little range to go next to the human to use it to give you room to attack.

I would suggest switching it for a longer-cooldown howl, perhaps, that froze or scared all the ghosts for a few seconds.
