Ghost Hunter
This game was made for A GAME BY ITS COVER 2023.
Glenda loves ghosts but no one believes in them except her! Using her trusty shovel and lantern, dig up graves and search for new ghost friends. But be careful -- some graves are cursed!

Lots of fun! Wish I realized what the gold graves did sooner X)
After playing Delivery Quest (and not realizing it was a 48 hour game, haha) I switched over to this and had a great time! I do find it funny that it would take 50 ghosts to convince the town, I personally feel like one or two would be enough for me, but I guess it does get the point across the entire town faster, haha
The video was really fun! Some people take things to extreme lengths to prove a point, and Glenda is like that, hahah. I love this game jam, where you choose a cartridge with a game that doesn't exist and make a game from its art and story. I have several different games, some short and some longer. Feel free to explore. (Note: My name is pronounced "Roger", like Roger Moore, hehe).
Glenda and her love of ghosts is adorable!
I'm glad you liked it, thanx! :D
lol, nice game , the art is perfect
Thanx a lot! :D
I had a great time playing this game
Thanx a lot! :D
Little Glenda the Ghost Hunter is precious. I think Roger did an amazing job honoring the original game cartridge art and I had a lot of fun playing this mini adventure. I wrote a game review if you would like to check it out!

风格可爱有趣，挖坟找鬼魂这个点子有点搞笑~ 要是可以有攻击绿色鬼魂的按键就好了
感谢您的意见和建议!
Aaah, when I try to launch it from the Itch.io store app, I just get a message that icons were updated. Weird.
That's strange :s
Looking in the game's folder, it might have to do with the icon program being the most prominent executable? It's in the game's root. I don't know how itch.io's butler works but if it just latches on the most visible exe that might explain it.
It's so cozy game. I wish you could make it full-size. Adorable!
I'm glad you liked It, thanx!!
