Haunted Castle

Haunted Castle is an adventure, turn-based, and puzzle game made by three poor souls who ventured to make the game in the hardest way (no game engine), with little time each day. But what matters is the learning experience, right?

Venture into the castle. Explore its rooms, solve puzzles, fight ghosts, and eliminate hauntings in this game based on famous franchises on the Big N console.

With nostalgic visuals and an incredible soundtrack, this is a concept game that deserves to be experienced.

We intend to continue the project after the Jam, so constructive feedback is welcome. Thank you and enjoy the game.

Important Note:
We hadn’t noticed that the shader responsible for inverting colors after using the magic wasn’t running across the entire screen (problem spotted by user Clark Padmore). The idea of using a simple shader that inverts the colors was precisely to avoid violating the color rules, but we ended up missing that.
