Good game, reminds me of phasmophobia. Only thing, even on my 1660 super I was averaging 25 FPS, very laggy. Maybe optimisation and extra polishing and then the game can be awesome.

Thanks for checking out the game! Yes, this was heavily inspired by Phasmophobia, we just wanted to take it a step further with items to "kill" the ghost with. Thanks for the feedback!!
