How it feels

You guide a pumpkin-headed scarecrow through cartoonishly creepy rooms, hopping over traps and dodging hazards in a light, casual platformer with a spooky theme but no real tension.

What players say

Players describe it as a very simple, fine little platformer with a cute gimmick of bouncing around as a pumpkin. Complaints focus on a missing pause button and a camera that stays at your character's height, making it hard to see danger above you.
