Wow, that art design is incredible. I can't believe that you guys pulled this together in 72 hours. I found the gameplay to be a bit less responsive than I'd like, but that's just about the only negative thing I could think of. Really strong work, guys!

The most invested game I've seem so far in the jam!
Great game!

I found it quite annoying to read something, whenever a level starts, I think that it should be written through the game.

Thanks for your review. Really, read that text from the beginning you could take a little time (n-n), but do not forget "CLICK to SKIP" and get Souls.

The visuals are impressive (particularly the colours) *but* ripping off Below's screenshot for your home screen is not exactly subtle .3.

The looks are really nice, bugs wise i did manage to clip into some of the walls, by accident. but overall nicely done

Good graphic and atmosphere. But game itself too boring. Storyline telling by moving picture is great idea. Its interesting.

Wow, great game, sought and neat graphics !
I'm on MAC OSX 10.9 and I had to perform this little manipulation to make it work:
Right click on the Akh. app and press "Show package contents" then go to Contents>MacOs
After that you need to open Terminal and type "chmod a+x " then drag'n drop the "Akh" file and press enter.
Now you are ready to play ! ( Sorry for my bad english, I'm French :) )

The gameplay was a bit too bland, but the aesthetic is great. I love the scrolling story images! The gameplay could be improved with tighter movement and more challenging platforming.

Because of the really similar menu art with the game Below (3 guys thought the same thing), we changed some details ;'( we are so sorry for it.

beautiful game! and the sound was amazing too!
I just found quite annoying that much text when the level starts. And also, it was kinda less responsive than i would like a game like this to be.
But hey! for 72 hours! Good job!

The music for this game fits very well, but the lack of friction made some of the jumps aggravating

The art is incridible! Really is one of the most beautiful ones in this entire compo. Amazing! :)

If you have time , please rate my game too! I would really appreciate it :D

I was enjoying the gameplay video and thought to myself the music was so good and also familiar. I remembered its the music they play when you die in World of Warcraft.

Great graphics! I really liked the story strip. The only problem with the gameplay, imho, is that the character slides too much... I often got blue souls while trying to get only the red ones because of the sliding...

Lipedal here (the other Lipedal back there was my co-worker Cau茫). Holy mother, you make BEAUTIFUL art! Loved the custscene and the general mood of the game :O Great soundtrack choice too. I only got a bit confused when red and blue started to negate each other. Other than that, you have a VERY solid entry there! It's really impressive that it was made in 72 hours. Congratulations, Midnight Creators! :D

Fancy graphics, and the music made for a nice mood. The gameplay could probably have been made more interesting though.

Saw that you used music you didn't make yourselves, and likely didn't acquire the rights to use.

Since you're in the jam, you're allowed to use content you haven't produced yourself, but you still need the rights owner's permission to do so.
