However, when I reached the end, the game just restarted, showing the title screen. Was it on purpose?\r<br\/>Suggestions: make souls reset when you die; I got stuck with a soul flying just where I respawn.

I think either the theme needs to be apparent from the beginning if the game will be hard, or the game needs to be easier\/shorter if the theme only shows at the end. The graphics are beautiful and so is the sound design. The repelling mechanic is also really cool and satisfying."},{"author_name":"SaintHeiser","author_uid":"14848","time":"Dec 19, 2012 @ 5:42am","epoch":1355895420,"text":"2soupy\r<br\/>Theme shows just in the middle of the game. And new mechanic appears only in second half. So repelling mechanic isn't so awesome as soul eating mechanic =)\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Is game really a game, if player can beat it from first time? I think - no. I like to give player the challenge. So my games maybe not so easy.

I think the positives have been pointed out well by now. :)  If I had to pick a point of improvement here it would be that the color scheme is so dark that I actually could not see the deadly lights until I fiddled with my monitor settings.
