You're a measly ghost strapped for cash. Head to the human world to haunt strangers and earn some extra ghost bucks. Be careful, you're not very strong so you'll only have a single haunt before you evaporate. Buy some upgrades with your ghost bucks to go deeper into the human world.

Watch out for red ghosts, they can suck your life away. Dodge them or try to haunt them to oblivion.

Controls:

Arrows move

X to haunt

Z to open doors (if you have a key)

How to play:

You only start with one haunt, but you can keep replaying the game with accumulated upgrades. Try to haunt some humans to get some cash, then buy additional health and haunts that will allow you to advance further in the game.

Red ghosts will hurt you if you touch them. If you are careful you can kill them by haunting them, or you can just avoid them.

Features:

Three levels

Two songs

Cool sound effects

Health and haunt upgrade system

It's not as done as I would like (which you'll see if you get to the end) but I hope you enjoy it regardless.
