Ghost Croquet

An amazing pixel style game with online multiplayer support. Would reccomend even if you don't have friends to play with (you can always find some players online since theres an active community) :)

One of the best NES-esque games on Steam! Recommended if you are a pixel-geek, retro games lover or something.

The game has an interesting concept, except for a few strange decisions that I'm sure will be fixed soon. All living creatures that are on the map, including the player, are the same (white-blue) color, which is a little confusing at first when you don’t know the rules and upcoming mechanics. Maybe it’s just for me, but the default controls don’t seem convenient; I’m used to controlling the character’s movement like on a gamepad with the fingers of my left hand, and actions with my right hand. Here, on the contrary, arrows are used for running, and manipulations are assigned to z x c, which seems to be more relevant for games like Dota. The game has multiplayer, in which one player is asked to complete a level, and the other must “possess” objects and mobs in order to interfere with the first player. In my opinion, the game does an excellent job of killing the player on its own - birds throw eggs, the golem jumps, the slime is dashed without the player’s intervention....

I want to know what kind of tragedy the developers had to go through for their mind to become so twisted that they thought making the level "canyon" was a good idea 10/10 would play again beautiful music

a solid tiny game with a lot of potential to it; I particularly enjoy its simplicity both in how it plays, its content and its looks. singleplayer you get a tough platformer to beat with multiple challenges to keep you entertained (beat the stage fast or without upgrades); and locally (or online!) you can fight it out with your friends to see who beats each stage first. the level editor is very easy to use and with workshop support you can get more and more levels to play.

Seriously extremely fun and underrated game. Can be played with many players online (with quite the good system, defeating the current human player will net you gray crystals, once you have more than anyone else you become the human for the next round). Even playing from EU with people from West US there was no noticable lag or anything. Absolutely amazing. Very impressed. Can only say for ~ 4 Dollars/EURO with online multiplayer AND level editor, this is a steal.

I like the art style of this game. Soundtrack is also nice, it gives me some feelings of nostalgia. I've played mostly in single-player mode. So I've decided to give a few suggestions about it: 1) At that moment, the main issue with "arcade mode" is random level order. It's ok for "arcade mode", but I would like to see some "story mode", where levels will go in particular order, so I will be able to feel some progress thru the game. 2) This progress should be saved. The levels are hard and it will be very difficult to complete the game at once. 3) Single player mode is very hard. It's ok foe me, but maybe it would be better to start with low-difficulty levels and then gradually increase the difficulty? 4) It's easy to die and reroll merchant's items. Maybe he should have all items every time in singleplayer mode? I'm not sure. I'm looking forward to seeing new singleplayer game modes!

It's a cool concept! I'd like to see one change to the game- Let players keep the power ups they buy. This would make it easier over time so eventually someone clears the level.

This is a lot of fun with friends. It reminds me of Crawl but it's less chaotic; the better player will definitely win. If you like platformers and have a friend to play with, I highly recommend this game. (And since you can do split screen, you only need 1 copy to play with someone online via Remote Play Together.)

Cool idea for a game. Pretty hard old-school platforming. You and your friends will have to do each level quite a few times before someone can beat it. But don't. go. easy. on them. Its very exciting when someone finally beats everyone and gets to the end of the level. Some of the people I played with didn't like the game so much. I thought it was pretty terrific. We only played for about 90 minutes, but I would play more of it.
