It's been on for quite sometime now, started it back in 2016 and started playing it again in December. Great fun

Was talking about Ascent.... its so good I'm pausing my lvl30 Dragon born.
Also no way that this is indie...nope, refuse to believe that statement.

It may be indie, but the team behind it have been in the industry for a while.
Shows what can be done when devs just dev instead of sitting in meetings talking about devving...
The Ascent is what you get when a group of veteran developers makes whatever they want

Managed to play the prologue.
really enjoyed it, plays nicely looks fantastic on oled, and playing with headphones make all games better
Strange that there is no HDR though.

A lot of the average reviews are about balancing issues regarding the difficulty. I don't think that's fair on these okes - it will likely be patched but the review won't change...

The Ascent reminds of a game I played many years ago....
Syndicate?
Syndicate?

Has a lot of Syndicate vibes well more Satellite Reign* like atmosphere, missions and guns.
I'm loving it.... cant wait for weekend to start to continue my journey.
* Satellite Reign was the spiritual successor to syndicate.

ha! just started (reached the 'stinky something' level -3- and this game is fun (especially after you pick up the sub-machine gun)
Edit: Btw, if you enjoy The Ascent theme then you should read "Wool" by Hugh Howes (Silo Series) - it's exactly this - an underground Arcology
