"Rick and The Ghost" is a point and click adventure game where you play as a ghost and haunt Rick a cigarette smoking monkey with a day job. The game essentially has two phases. The first phase is "the haunting" were the player finds ways to haunt Rick, each object that is haunt-able comes with three options each effecting rick differently with last option always being "Do nothing". The second phase is when Rick comes into play, he will go about his day which changes with each object that was haunted.
We didn't really finish "Rick and The Ghost" (which is made pretty clear by all the debugging text) as we ran out of time. Thinking this game would be simple to finish we quickly realized how intensive the art and animation had become. That being said we had a lot of fun working on this game and gained a lot of knowledge. After a little rest we plan to finish "Rick and The Ghost" and add more content. The game is designed modularly so adding new content is only a matter of making said content.
We will keep an updated link to the game as we continue work while keeping the compo version up as well.
Hope you enjoy what we made.

Edit: Our interpretation of the theme was 'You Only get one day to haunt Rick for your ghost interview"
We are aware of the lagginess, its related to not loading/caching properly (new library troubles), and we are working on a post-LD version :)
