Akatori News

[p]Between fierce battles, Mako never truly rests. Every corridor, every gap, every wall is another test — of skill, timing, and rhythm.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Her path winds through narrow stone halls, castles, mines and countless fields of amber spikes. The floor gives way, the air burns, and yet she keeps moving — two jumps, one dash, and a single chance to get it right.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Her wooden battle staff isn’t just a weapon. It’s a lifeline. In her skilled hands, it hooks onto walls, turns a fall into flight, and transforms the environment itself into a worthy ally.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Each arena or scene is a puzzle of motion: a beautiful dance between danger and precision. Think fast. Move faster. The monsters won’t wait — and the abyss never forgives your mistakes.[/p][p][/p][p]Join our community:[/p][p]👾 Join our Discord if you wanna chat with devs[/p][p]🤑 Subscribe to our mailing list[/p]

[p]The world of Akatori is full of surprises - from dangerous creatures lurking in the shadows to the unpredictable, eerie power of the Amber and the twisted results of its corruption.[/p][p]
[/p][p]Some of the enemies you can meet on your way were once humans. Drowners and Amber Zombies barely resemble what they used to be. Only the silhouette is a reminder of their original nature. Their twisted bodies spit a venomous mass that carries the corruption of Amber, whenever a living being passes nearby. [/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]
The Soldiers, corrupted by Amber and forever lost to its Curse, shoot at anything moving around. So jump carefully. One bad timing and you are falling into the abyss.[/p][p][/p][p]You may think it’s easy to fight with such enemies. But you’d better be ready to test your skills — misfortunes never come single. [/p][p][/p][p]Join our community:[/p][p]👾 Join our Discord if you wanna chat with devs[/p][p]🤑 Subscribe to our mailing list[/p][p]

[p][/p][p][/p][p]Between the battles and platforming, even a hero needs a break. Thankfully, the merchants are always open for business![/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]They pop up in the most unexpected places, always ready to sell you exactly what you need. A healing potion? They've got it. A key item for a blocked path? Of course, just pay.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Don’t let their friendly appearance trick you: they are ruthless tradesmen at heart, always eager for fortune. They have different nature, looks and story, but share one common rule. [/p][p]The prices are fixed and final. No discounts.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]How do they manage to find you in the most mysterious and dangerous corners of the world? [/p][p]They surely have their ways.[/p][p][/p][p]Join our community:[/p][p]👾 Join our Discord if you wanna chat with devs[/p][p]🤑 Subscribe to our mailing list

In the ruins of the bamboo forest the enemies wander, ready to confront anyone. Floating isles and abandoned shrines meet Mako and Akatori with the creatures twisted by the Amber Storms. Some of them are horrifyingly familiar - forest animals, warped and twisted turned into monstrous new forms. Soldiers who forever lost their bodies and minds to the Amber curse. The higher Mako climbs, the stranger monsters become. [/p][p][/p][p]
[/p][p]A new threat is the monkey-like creature that uses it’s long arms to move. Very territorial one. It will let out a loud screech to attack once you step too close. Fast and flexible, it grabs the bamboo and launches itself in the air, moving fast above the abyss below.[/p][p][/p][p]
Developing the monkey was quite a task, as we tried out many silhouettes and shapes: from what looks like a familiar ape to a completely new creature that resembles monkeys, but stays unique in it’s design and anatomy. 
[/p][p]But wait! Where are the legs?! [/p][p]

[p]The Amber storms mangle the world inevitably. It knows no mercy, spreads distortion and corruption everywhere, deforming and destroying anything that stands in the way. [/p][p] [/p][p][/p][p]An unknown temple, surrounded by the Bamboo Forest, could not avoid this fate. The ground, the air, the isles, the buildings, the living creatures. The Amber storm altered it all, turning it into dangerous ruins. [/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]The dangers are hiding over and under, lurking at every step. The strange roots are hanging down everywhere. Who knows what else is hiding in the sky?[/p][p] [/p][p]Stay tuned for more of the Akatori world.[/p]
