Really cool stuff! I think the final bat boss was a little too annoying and the frog too easy. But, really good! Had a lot of fun. Wonderful art too btw
Reviews for "Spooky Quest"
Really enjoyable game to play, with beautiful art and musics to boot!
Just the bat felt a bit of a challenge after the other two enemies, but it ultimately fell to the mighty swings of the shovel.
Very good job on this game!!! I had fun attempting to beat it, great work! Its simple, but provides a decent challenge. The art was cute and fun. I loved the designs of the characters, and the story was short, but sweet! Only small bit of critique I have is that when the loading screen comes up, the audio bugs out a ton. Hopefully that can be fixed, because it was quite jarring every time it happened. But besides that, I loved this game and I'm glad I discovered it! Keep up the great work!
i just wish it was longer
The art is really fucking good! I love the design of the witch, bosses and the player character. The gameplay itself is a bit lackluster, feeling a bit hallow at times. It could definitely use some more impact and sound effects. Making the enemy flash when you hit them and flashing the screen red for a split second when you are hit are also good ways of conveying IMPACT. The final boss used the sonic screech every time you got close enough to land a hit, making it more of an endurance test. I'd also recommend pausing the music right before loading screens because it jitters the song and sounds a bit awful.
Asides from all that nitpicky stuff, awesome work!

I'd say it's not nitpicky at all! I can see the problem with the lack of cues when you take or inflict damage, and how it takes a toll in the overall experience of the game. I hadn't thought of flashing the hole screen when you get hit, but that sounds like a good idea. The final boss was the one I rushed the most when making the sprites, so it's really bare for sure. As for the audio, we are trying to figure out how to fix it.
