Fantastic game Peter!
Thanks for making and releasing this. I’ve gotten more enjoyment out of Ascender than most any other iOS game I’ve played.
After completing Classic mode, I’ve thoroughly enjoyed the challenge of beating Survival and competing against others in the Time Trial global leaderboards.
I’m writing this review after just setting the global record for the 100-0 time trial. Not to brag, but I crushed the previous record by nearly 30 seconds, and was the first to break the 1 min mark. I say this because I want someone to try to figure out how I did it and beat my time.
Cheers!!lb543
Simple yet challenging
I first came across Ascender when I looking for class arcade games to play on my phone. It was immediately an addicting game that I enjoyed for a long time. I would play any chance I could and it took a while for me to beat the game. The game is challenging at times but it honestly comes down to learning the various tricks and patterns to help you along the way. I can’t wait for next one to come out.James D. Halliday
Fun game but limited
Fun free ascension game but limited. There is one level with three different play types. I beat all but no other levels to play. Controls are jenky and don’t register sometimes causing a flight or fire error causing a death/end in the run.
Other than that, worth getting and playing occasionally.Adds are no good.
