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?

“The main reason for this being an early access title, the main goal during the development phase is to improve and advance the development process by taking into account players' requests within the game, and to provide a clean, fun experience as free from problems as possible. For this, I need as much feedback as possible. I will continue developing it until it is finalized, and I am considering seeking investment.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The game will remain in Early Access until the main story mode is completed. I think it might take around a year.”

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

“The Early Access version currently includes a Challenge Mode, a fast-paced, action-oriented mode focused on parkour and climbing, designed purely for fun. For the full release, I plan to add a completed story mode with a fluid, dark narrative. Additionally, I am considering adding at least three new sections to the Challenge Mode, each taking place in different habitats and conditions.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Currently, only the Challenge Mode is active. Challenge Mode is almost fully ready. It contains traps that you can interact with, pushing you to perform parkour and constantly think about your movements. The main elements of the Challenge Mode, as required by the nature of the mode, involve climbing out of an enclosed tunnel to escape. The climbing movement, trap interaction, and various trap combinations within the tunnel that make this fun are all prepared. In short, the core mechanics of the game are ready; I just need to add more interaction and material to enrich the gameplay.”

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

“There will be a small price increase once I complete it. Challenge Mode is almost fully ready. It contains traps that you can interact with, pushing you to perform parkour and constantly think about your movements. The main elements of the Challenge Mode, as required by the nature of the mode, involve climbing out of an enclosed tunnel to escape. The climbing movement, trap interaction, and various trap combinations within the tunnel that make this fun are all prepared. In short, the core mechanics of the game are ready; I just need to add more interaction and material to enrich the gameplay.”

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

“Based on community feedback, suggestions, and critiques, I plan to make adjustments to systems such as damage, traps, and difficulty. I'm also considering adding or removing certain sections.

The story mode, however, will be developed internally and is not subject to external involvement.

For your ideas, opinions, and all criticisms, you can reach me via Discord, Twitter, Instagram, and Kick”

About This Game

Climb Of Death is a climbing-focused rogue-like platformer set in a medieval atmosphere. As players ascend through dark structures filled with danger, they are tested by both their reflexes and their decisions.

Gameplay & Mechanics

The game is built on climbing mechanics that require precise timing and control. Movements such as jumping, grabbing, and balancing are vital. Narrow platforms, sudden traps, and unforgiving falls are a natural part of the progression. There are no saves. Death is permanent. However, with every attempt, the player learns a little more and gains mastery.

Choices & Progression

There is no single path in the game. The route you choose directly affects the challenges you face and your overall experience. Some paths are safer but longer, while others are shorter but much more dangerous. Progression is not achieved through a leveling system, but entirely through the player's skill.

Story & Atmosphere

The story is not told directly. It is presented to the player through environmental storytelling, dark locations, and obscure details. As you advance between hidden truths and obvious lies, the ending awaiting you remains unclear.

Objectives & Difficulty

The goal is simple: climb and survive. However, obstacles that push your reflexes to the limit, traps requiring full attention, and platforms that leave no room for error await you along the way. The game prioritizes the feeling of learning and mastery.

Music & Experience

Music and sound design that support the atmosphere keep the player constantly on edge. Even silence is a threat.
