It still needs a lot of work and I'm debating how much shadow a ghost would realistically cast :-D

Sooooo many good games. Get on it!
30.10.2025 19:49 โ ๐ 3 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Yes currently that's a feature where only the lights in a room turn on. I'm not sure why and I'm surely I'll probably change this in the future :-D

#indiegamedeveloper #godot #gamedev
Treated is part of this Halloween bundle of games. Probably like 6 of my games are Halloween appropriate seeing as I can't stop myself making games about a little ghost: play.date/games/search...

It was a lot of work and doesn't look quite as good yet but it'll be worth it...
#indiegamedeveloper
Got this finished! "As Dead as a Doris" will be part of @ldbrart.bsky.social's Halloween project.
More news soon but this one is really exciting for @play.date owners!
