🍬🎃SUGAR GHOULS IS OUT🎃🍬

I emerge from underground to bring you a new Halloween platformer I've been working on non-stop for the last 2 weeks. It's got pumpkins, it's got goblins, but most importantly, it has GHOST KID.

So grab some candy, a controller, and have fun~

It's that time of year... 🍂
🎃 The Ghost Town Pumpkin Festival is BACK for 2025! 🎃

This year we can support up to 800 players at once in this seasonal pumpkin carving MMO!

This year's update comes with new areas and new secrets to find.

Hope you don't mind if I re-use the trailer from last year! 😅

Imagine you in a city walking home at midnight... but it's alien and you don't know where to go. Decipher the signs or ask the aliens maybe?

Made with @holypersondev.bsky.social for Mağara Jam 25 over the weekend.
