Demos are a key way for indie developers to show off what their upcoming titles are like and then get feedback on how to improve before release. The team at Spicy Games and Okasan’s Recipe did that earlier with Ghost Hunting Journal, a unique anime-style ghost hunting game. Now, they’re getting ready to improve the demo even further. The demo is on Steam right now and will get updated on July 20th, and it’ll feature content improvements based on feedback from players.
The team noted in a press release that Ghost Hunting Journal has been getting some serious buzz online, which does indicate that many have their eyes on the casual exploration title. If you’re wondering what the game is truly like, check out the synopsis and trailer below:
“When mortals pass, most souls ascend to heaven for reincarnation. Yet some refuse to move on. Bound by lingering attachments, they remain in the world of the living, classified by heaven’s registry as Spirit Permanent Residents (SPR) and more casually known as “Soul Squatters.”
As heaven prioritizes large scale soul recovery and recycling, these unregistered spirits fall into a state of limbo. Most fade quietly into obscurity, but a mischievous few grow stronger and use their powers to interfere with the living, giving rise to ghost stories and urban legends across the city.”
That’s right! You’re a “Spirit Agent,” and your job is to figure out what’s going on in your city and use various items to not only find the supernatural that haunts the area, but also take them down. With two protagonists, you can see the story unfold in different ways and see the city and the surrounding areas through unique eyes each time.
