Upon besting the Reaper in a game of skill at the culmination of your life, you are surprised to discover that you have somehow assumed his duties. 

You must reap the souls of the living before their lifetimer expires, or their souls will become ghosts which can drain your energy. Only by reaping enough souls can you move on to the next plane of existence.

Controls : wasd for motion, "r" or left mouse button for "reap" attack. Mouse scroll wheel changes minimap zoom level. You can hit "n" to advance to the next day (sometimes Ghosts might be stuck or you might fall in a hole that you can't get out of and cannot complete the level)

One day after the submission deadline, I fixed two bugs : the player controller freaking out when trying to walk backwards, and the transparency problems on the tree textures in the WebGL build. I also tweaked camera settings to make it less jittery (CineMachine switched from "Third Person" to "Transposer" -- much better for this game)
