Akatori News

[p]Hey everyone! The first playtest was productive and important to us. Particularly we’ve spotted a few mistakes in the game version. Thanks to your dedication and feedback, we’ve fixed them! [/p][p]
[/p][p]We’ve updated the game version and we are launching another playtest. Unfortunately we couldn’t accept everyone during the previous version. Please apply for the new playtest! We promise to accept quickly! You can also join our Discord to discuss the playtest and share your experience.[/p][p]

[p]Wherever the Amber goes it spreads corruption: no living being can resist it. Wildlife transforms under it’s influence, and while being naturally unfriendly, becomes twice as dangerous when altered. [/p][p]
Afraid of spiders? Better be scared of their Amber-corrupted state. They are small, fast and aggressive. Watch them carefully - they are a threat when they accompany bigger monsters. [/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]The goats are aggressive naturally, and their danger escalates once they are touched by Amber. Their horns, however, aren’t the only danger: they leave a venomous trail when sprinting. Use your jumping skills and reaction - or it might hurt a lot. [/p][p][/p][p]
[/p][p]Watch out for the upside-down toads - they use their sticky tongues to drag everything that comes around right into their mouths.[/p][p][/p][p]
[/p][p]This happens to every living being. Every creature on your way is a danger, so you always have to stay alert. Whether in the Amber Castle, in the caves under the temple, one law prevails: the fittest survives.[/p][p]

[p]Noticed something new? You might have been surprised to see Akatori Tales last time. These short stories will be telling you more about the enormous and living world of the game! [/p][p]
Old man Tso and old man Nobumitsu meet up for a game every day. They’ve always been old as far as Mako remembers. [/p][p]Yumi says that ones who lose the game with the two of them never return from Amber Castle. Takashi lost a month ago. And never returned. [/p][p]Yumi says nonsense. Akiru never wins and is still alive. Mako, however, never loses. [/p][p]Tso frowns, Nobumitsu praises the game. Mako wins and returns from the Castle again. [/p][p][/p][p]Join our community:[/p][p]👾 Join our Discord if you wanna chat with devs[/p][p]

[p]Monks live under the sun: among the groves and mountains, where earth and stone prevail. However, as Mako embarks on her journey, she will face another element. Mysterious and flowing. [/p][p][/p][p]Diving into the cool water might seem fun - until it’s not. The air ends quickly and the dangers await below the surface. Does the seaweed seem harmless to you? You better watch out - it grows unpredictably and hurts badly. [/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Water isn’t a solace - it’s another trial for skill. Underwater flows will carry you deep with their power, the narrow tunnels will keep you away from a breath. [/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]And the deep hides it’s creatures, ready to go on a hunt. Stay alert - these waters hold their secrets. [/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Join our community:[/p][p]👾 Join our Discord if you wanna chat with devs[/p][p]

[p]The feedback we have received during the closed playtest was surely important to us: your experience helps us to make the game better, to find bugs and mistakes to fix and places to improve. [/p][p]Among the reports we’ve seen a lot of notes about Torii gates applying damage if Mako jumps on them.[/p][p]That’s not a bug! [/p][p]Torii gate is an important sacred element of the temple surroundings. We don’t want to insult the monks, do we? [/p][p]The gates just politely (and maybe a bit painfully) remind that they aren’t a platform to jump on.[/p]
