GHOST NIRVANA

It's the first day at your new part time job for Soulty Co., a gourmet salt company. But what sort of job for a salt company requires you to head to a junkyard at night anyway? 

Track down missing appliances and use your Special Salt Gun to defend against ghosts in this shoot 'em up game!

UPDATE!! NEW BOSS, LEADERBOARD, AND MUCH MORE!!!!! :)

quite fun, but I do think that it could use more upgrade varitey

This is super fun, but I find that the sounds are really loud and a settings menu would be a really nice add


Other than this though, I find the gameplay extremely addicting and I'm having a really fun time playing it!

I like the 3D model of the main character and the cute illustrations during conversations!

The shooting part is easy in the beginning because ghosts appear less frequently, but after the middle of the game, they appear in large numbers, which is interesting because you have to think about building up your skills from the beginning.

And I was playing the windows version at first, but in the middle of the game I got an error drop due to my PC's low performance. Then I tried the web version, but it was too slow and I couldn't stand the rush of ghosts at the end of the game and lost.

I think the windows version probably failed because I was taking a video of the game, so next time I will try to clear the game without taking a video of the game.

Thank you very much for the playthrough! We're so happy to see people enjoying our game, and wow you got so close to the end! 

We will definitely try to optimize in a future update to prevent lag.

プレイしてくれてありがとうございます!

It's been updated! I played it before and after the update, and after it was done.

I played with Explosion Specialization, Multiple Attack Specialization, and Mobility Specialization which sealed those two.

The Explosion Specialization was very strong and exhilarating, and the Multiple Attack Specialization was a well balanced combat experience.

When I played the game with the mobility specialization, I couldn't beat the enemy at all and lost about 5 times in 9 minutes, but I managed to clear the game and felt very satisfied.

If I get two coffees, I can be as fast as a ghost and be safer, and if I get four or more coffees, I can be agile enough to dodge through a crowd of ghosts!

A pleasant sensation that floods my brain juice!

The error drop in the Windows version I wrote about last time seemed to be a GPU-related error in Unity in general, and when I played without any other GPU-using application (OBS), the error did not occur. Sorry it was an environment-dependent issue for me!

PS. Sorry for posting the video again and again, but I had to do it again because this video from around the 10 minute mark is filled with the fun of my coffee play.

楽しい作品をありがとう!

Congrats on beating it- thanks for playing!

We enjoyed your playthrough videos and appreciate the detailed comments. Your coffee + attack speed combo was very interesting!

Please look forward to our future updates! :>

Oh my gosh, I was not aware of the boss update!

There are some adjustments to upgrades this time around, and if you don't plan ahead, it's going to be a painful development if you don't upgrade.

I tried to fight with just enough offensive upgrades + My Favourite Upgrade coffee based on my memory of last time and it didn't work and I got hit multiple times!

In the end, the system didn't give me any coffee options at all, as if to say, "Forget that obsession," so I upgraded my Explosion system and was able to get by just in time.

It was a lot of fun! Thank you so much!
