User Reviews
- As a long-time reader of the Erma comic, this game is a dream come true! The art style is spot on and Erma is just as adorable and creepy as she should be.
- Great little indie platformer. The controls are tight and the level design is actually quite clever. Definitely worth a play even if you don't know the comic.
- It's rare to see a webcomic adaptation handled with this much care. It feels like a love letter to the fans. 10/10 for the atmosphere alone.
- Short but sweet! The difficulty spikes in a few places, but nothing a ghostly girl can't handle. Highly recommended for fans of horror-themed indies.
- The animations are incredibly smooth and capture Erma's personality perfectly. It's spooky, cute, and fun!
