About This Game

Our Ascent is an incremental roguelite RPG with many layers of metaprogression. The game is currently in the Alpha Testing phase!

The main gameplay loop is similar to that of a traditional RPG. Level up, upgrade your stats, buy equipment, etc. Where this game differs is through the incremental roguelite mechanics. You can only fight a certain number of enemies before the run ends, and once a run ends your levels and stats get reset. In exchange, you keep your equipment and powerful buffs which let you explore much further than before.

With silly dialogue and nearly guaranteed progress, this is a simple, casual game. But for those who want to reach the limit of what is possible, you are heavily rewarded for min-maxing your stat allocation, pathing to find the optimal routes, and choosing the best equipment for the current situation.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

The art for the backgrounds were initially created by AI. I am in the process of converting all AI art into commissioned art. There are 5 AI art PNGs left. Soon they will all be replaced.

A special thanks to all the support that makes buying commissioned art possible!
