The Ritual
You play as a character trying to save their beloved from certain death. One day, a mysterious shaman shows up at your door, promising you a cure for your beloved using a certain ritual. You must collect all the necessary items from the abandoned church in town while going through some minigames. Using a mouse instead of a touchpad is recommended.
If you feel stuck, talk to NPCs.
WASD : move
E: interact/START dialogue
LMB/Space: Move dialogue further
Any other controls will be mentioned in the game.

Update 2/12 11:52pm CET. Fixed issue that would break end game crucial dialogue.
Update 1/12 11:16pm CET. Issue with torches was due to web exports changing to compatibility render which does not support shadows on PointLight2D nodes :). So I disabled shadows from the torches and reinstanced them.
Note: Godot's web export is buggy apparently, which lead to all the torches in the game breaking and not emitting their light. I'm sorry for this, did not realize until the last moment. As a consequence, some areas of the game will seem too dark. If you know of a fix, please let me know :((((.
This is my 3rd game ever. I am very proud of myself considering I had to juggle work and life responsibilities while making this. It is my most cohesive game so far with an actual story that I find funny and entertaining. I learned a lot in terms of game design and art, and I am very satisfied with how the game turned out. Feedback is 100% appreciated!

It was my pleasure to work with you on the art of the dialogue portraits. I love the atmosphere and story of your game, and I think it turned out really well and definitely your best work yet! The minigames were engaging and gave me a challenge, especially the ghost hunting one xD I look forward to playing your future games! :)
