Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“This game is largely untested and needs a lot of feedback from multiple players to work out the kinks. With so many moving parts, there are bound to be broken aspects that can only be discovered by other players.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Up to 12 months”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“There will not be much difference, except there will be a true ending to the game, and also possibly more sidequests.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version contains most of the planned features for the game. It includes 3 playable minigames, including a potion-crafting game, a board game, and dungeon with infinite floors, along with an arena for fighting multiple battles in a row. Its main features, which are the same as the full version, are 10+ repeatable boss fights (boss rush style), and sandbox-style access to all 17+ available character classes. There is currently no way to exceed the maximum values of level, damage, and other stats. There is no post-game content. There is no narrative ending. Those 3 features will be available in the full game.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The game will be free during Early Access / playtesting, at least inititally. I may increase the price of the Early Access version as I release more features that make it closer to the full version of release and as it gains a following. A more standard indie game pricing will be applied at full release.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“The game is mostly finished. The main involvement I would like the community to have is discovering bugs and issues with the game that I can fix, such as balance issues or oversights that I have missed in my own playtesting. Also if anyone makes a suggestion that I like, I could implement new features from those suggestions as well.”

About This Game

Descension tells the story of Ruby, a young man wanting to right a past wrong and save his childhood friend. Ruby and his 3 best friends must traverse the Alternate Realm, a land haunted and ruled by The Ultimate Entity. Forget what you know about class-based RPGs - there are no White Mages or Warriors in this game, so bring your creativity and a willingness to learn a new way to play. All 17 classes are completely unique to Descension and have never been seen before.

Features:

  • Turn-based combat

  • Sandbox gameplay (everything is available from the start of the game)

  • Boss rush style battles

  • 17 different classes, called Soul Shards, all unique to Descension

  • 12 different stats

  • Minimalist story, but still impactful

  • Ability to swap characters mid-battle

  • Skill Gem system that encourages saving up Gems for powerful attacks

  • 8 party members, with complete control over customization of each character
