You're going to fall. Not a gentle game over. Not a quick fade to black. You're going to watch yourself tumble back down through every platform you climbed, every realm you fought to reach, until you hit the ground where you started. And then you're going to tap "play" again. ASCENT is a vertical arcade game with one simple rule: tap left or right to jump. That's it. No power-ups. No tutorials. No second chances. Just you, an endless tower, and gravity waiting for you to slip. ▸ TAP left side of screen to jump left ▸ TAP right side to jump right ▸ CLIMB through ever-changing realms ▸ FALL through everything you just earned The controls take seconds to learn. The tower takes forever to master. Your best run is waiting. So is your worst fall.
