I have the same problem with queen faith.
It seems that around the first 30 seconds of the game's start, an error pops up and it quits the game.
The error says something about conflicting actors, hope you can fix it ^^
Game really lacks.
I didn't expect much looking at it but I decided to give it a try and to my surprise it didn't have much to offer, though it is an interesting experience.
(SPOILERS BELOW)
My thoughts on the game:
The game is just full of silence. A little more sounds could spice it up, maybe even a heartbeat of some sort, or the static getting louder when the ghost is near. Maybe just a background soundtrack, or some sound indicating you're close to a page, stuff like that.
You can touch the ghost, which makes it feel really unscary. If you automatically lost by touching it in general, it would be scarier in my opinion.
Ghost has black lines at the edges if you look closely, showing off that it's actually a sprite (2D plane).
Ghost is really easy to beat if you just keep looking around everywhere. Additionally, it's seems slow, which makes it the game even easier. If it had a minimum speed and a maximum speed (Maximum speed should probably be a tiny bit larger than the player's speed, so it's fair and not too difficult), and would be slower (Not instantly, but slowing down) the more the player looked at it, and rise in speed when the player wasn't look at it. I feel like it would make the game a lot scarier and more interesting. If the ghost would make a louder "screech/tracks" sound that's not ear-rapey the faster it got, it might make it more intense.
It's unclear that pages can also be behind walls. Took me about 15 minutes to figure this out.
The error is confusing, I can see what you tried doing, but I feel like it's so anti-climactic that it just feels like a normal error rather than "getting caught". I expected a jumpscare due to how quiet the game is. From my experience playing horror games, there needs to be some buildup, something making the player feel stressed. The only thing you have to fear is losing your progress in this game, rather than the ghost.
Lack of terrain and objects makes the game seem undone.
Player moves really slowly for such a big map, it takes about 7-10 minutes to beat it even if you do know where everything is.
Lack of context/story, why are you in a forest in the middle of nowhere?
You can fall off the map.
Overall, the game seems interesting, especially for one of your first games, and I really hope my points help. I am looking forward to whether you could turn this into something amazing!
Maybe you could take inspiration from HE COMES ONCE and Blink, which are both games I played and featured on my channel that have a similar concept. It might give you ideas on what you could improve on in the game if you skim through. :)
