Steam Store description

Dark Ascent is a challenging 2D platformer that tests your skill, patience, and strategy as you strive to reach the summit of an exceedingly tall world. With low visibility and no checkpoints to save your progress, every jump and dash must be executed with precision and foresight. The game's core mechanics revolve around managing and enhancing your abilities to overcome the increasingly difficult climb. Core Mechanics: 1. SPEED: Speed is crucial for clearing vast distances. Collecting speed potions not only increases your movement speed but also your dash range, allowing you to make greater leaps. 2. JUMP: Greater jump height enables you to reach distant platforms. Jump potions paired with double jump, boosts your vertical leap, providing access to higher and distant platforms making it easier to navigate toward the summit. 3.STAMINA: Stamina determines how long you can perform strenuous actions such as dashing, jumping and double jumping. Stamina potions increase your endurance, giving you the strength to overcome long stretches of the ascent without rest. 4. LIGHT: As you ascend, the world grows darker and more sporadic. Light potions increase your range of visibility. Area Reveals further illuminate your surroundings, revealing out of sight platforms. Maintaining a good light level is essential for a safe ascent.
