About
Your wife was known as one of the most attuned mediums in the world until the day she reached too far. Some souls want to be forgotten and don't take kindly to the living reaching into their realm. Abducted by demons, your wife has resigned to her fate.
As a man of science, you had always scoffed at your wife's otherworldly obsessions, but you'll be damned if you're letting her life be cut short by creatures of the underworld. You've managed to construct a portal to the underworld and it's time to go after her.
Also, while you're there collect some soul fragments, because... why not?

Hey, really nice work, especially for a week! Would have been cool to have that boss fight at the end, but you mentioned on the other page that you ran out of time, and that's understandable. Happens to me every jam I've joined.
I liked the placement of the collectibles, fun but not frustrating. The art music, and sound all works well. I really like the cutscenes too, adds a lot to the game.
For critiques, I think the animations are charming, but could use a little polish. The platform feels decent, but I'm 50/50 on needing to crouch to shoot the basic enemies. I got used to it I guess.
All and all, an excellent entry! Great job.
Thank you for your input! And thanks for playing our game!
