This is a submission to Brackeys Game Jam 2026.2

Spooks has lost his tombstone. Can you find his friends and see if they can help?

I made this Bracke's Jam 16, and I had a great time making it. I hope you enjoy it. It is based on my webcomic: Spook and Geist, which is where I got my graphics from.

This should work in any browser, including your phone!

Controls:

  • Left/Right Arrows - move
  • Space - chat / interact
  • Mouse / Tap - works as well (look at the instructions in the game)

Development:

  • HTML/CSS/JavaScript
  • No libraries, all written by hand
  • No AI
  • Some graphics came from my comics, a number I had to create just for this game (especially all the animations)

Known Issues:

  • Escape brings up the menu, but Start doesn't reset the items once gameplay has started (you need to reload the page)
  • I've seen an occasional glitch during the engine sequence I haven't found. May be a timing issue
  • No Sound (sorry, ran out of time)

Its cute! I like it, though I'm not sure who geist is?

Items snap to the ground nicely, though when I place it on the saloon doors it snaps to the doors

Geist is the one on the flying ghostship. The comic is based on the both of them. 

I'm glad you liked it. Yes, I have a very simple placement algorithm due to time constraints. 

Thanks for playing it!
