Love the graphics, but have some trouble getting past the giant spider :/ global ambiance is really nice tho, you get some limbo feeling, love it !

Glad to hear you like the game! You can get past the spider by shooting your soul fragments at it with right-click :)

A very good game, reminded me of limbo, and the mechanics of the soul is striking. 

This is our game in case you want to play it, feedback is very welcome!

Had a great time with this. Loved the general mood and found the soul mechanic really interesting. Would be great to see a more fleshed out version!

Nice melancholy atmosphere. I love that the world looked like it had been painted with sponges. I really like the piano when you collect a piece of soul.

Please vote for our game too :-) Thank you

awesome art style! totally loved the game!
(though i for strange reason many times pressed 'space' instead of 'w' and was detaching soul instead of jump)

Very cool concept, the atmosphere is amazing. The sound effect for the character's steps is incredible haha. I particularly liked the background as well. I would work a little bit more in the controls, they didn't feel very responsive to me, specially the jump mechanic and how it behave with detaching the soul in mid air. Excellent job overall!

Super atmospheric game!

Love the music and the movement. 

I got stuck at the part with the rotating arrows tho..

Well done!

I love how the game looks and feels. You've done a great job with setting up the atmosphere through the dark aesthetic, foggy background, piano music and sfx. I especially like how the bg music makes the game all the more engaging and mysterious. The controls are a little wonky, but it doesn't take away from the fun. The camera could also be smoother when the soul is reattached to the character. 

 I feel like the game wants to tell me a story or a message through its character, mechanics and design and to me, that was executed successfully. The game is really short and simple but with some expansion and fixing, it could be a really polished inspiring narrative game.

Congrats on your 2nd jam btw!

Beautiful. loved it

Loved the background music ! I love the idea of moving your soul, there's a real idea right there! 

However, I find that the game is way too dark; I get the Limbo-like theme, but a bit of contrast would be great !

With some improvement, I feel it could be a nice story-based indie game ! Great job !
