About Ascender
Ascender is a 2D exploration and puzzle game set in the open world of GOA’s districts, an underground civilization. You play as Sky, an artificial intelligence created by Professor Toro Hudo to help build a kinetic system for his foster daughter, Ocean Hudo, a limbless child who fell from the clouds as an infant. As Sky, you explore GOA and solve puzzles while learning about Ocean, her father and the civilization.
Explore GOA
The districts of GOA form an open world with a metroidvania-style approach to exploration. The game focuses on puzzles and platforming challenges.
Combine onyx runes
Sky can equip different onyx runes, each of which grants a power-up. Combining runes may produce new power-ups, letting you adapt your abilities to your needs.
