froghosts
(pronounced fro - ghosts)

I've only started making this fairly recently and I think it is turning out as maybe a full time project  
In the game you play as a frog-like character destroying the spawners + ghosts in a dude's house, you journey through each room until you DIE.

I wouldn't mind lots of feedback and I don't care if it's positive or negative. I JUST WANT FEEDBACK.

I've now fixed it

This is a good start, as far as I have seen everything works properly with no apparent collision or pathing issues.

The game is rather easy right now though; as long as I was shooting the ghosts couldn't hurt me.
A potential fix could be making the projectiles smaller and/or changing their starting point.

The opening room was also a bit confusing at first with the bear-looking guy curling into a ball and quickly moving about the room in a somewhat random fashion, I initially thought it was a boss.

Other than that you just need more room designs and some more advanced ghosts and you'll be on your way to making this something more.

Thanks Daquerex! This version of Froghosts is quite old and there have been a few updates since, if you want to know some of them you can check them here on the discord: https://discord.gg/xrxwXn7
On the discord you can check the frequent updates and talk about it there

The guy curling up into a ball is a boss - you guessed it! (I still don't know what animal it is though, you can choose - a dog, a pig, whatever you think is appropriate   )

The room designs I'm currently working on (uses random object generation) and the ghosts at the start are just to get you to feel how to play the game and what to do, not supposed to be too hard, but I think I'll work on that a bit as that is a small improvement I feel like I need to do. The collisions with enemies I still need to work on as sometimes you can't loose any health! So that is still one of my BIG things I need to work on

  Overall, thanks for reviewing Froghosts and I will take you feedback into account
Thanks old chap
