Ascending Inferno

Good game. 8/8. Edit: Best game I suck at? Yes. Yes that is correct.

Pre good

very hard but very very fun game

[REVIEW IN PROGRESS] I've only played for an hour today and didn't bring a controller, which made it harder on me, but still really appreciating the level of detail that went into the levels. And the devs have found a clever way to MAKE you appreciate them as you'll see each level a few times when you inevitably fumble the ball and have to go fetch it a few levels lower again. This game is for people with persistence. Now let's find out if I'm one of them...

Hooo boy this is challenging. But the game is beautiful and the journey is compelling. Can't wait to dig further into it.

This game does exactly what is intended to.. Makes you mad. If Vincent wasn't already dead I would kill him myself. >:( Love the art style, just wish I was any good at platformers. Here's hoping I get better and ascend!

There isn't another game that even remotely looks or plays like this. Also there isn't another game that infuriates me as much as this. 10/10 Serious note: it feels great to play, the process of learning the movement and the ball mechanics was engaging. Reaching a new level was always a treat to see the creative and beautiful art of each section of hell. Shout out to the inspired pixel art designs! Music ****ing slaps.

very good (good movement but EVIL level design)

Kick your way through the layers of hell?? More like kick your way through the five stages of grief.. Denial: It's the game that's bad, not me. Anger: Okay, I'm bad.. And now I'm mad... Bargaining: Please just land on the ledge I promise I won't let you fall again... Depression: Whyyy.... Whyyy did I let you fall again?? Acceptance: Okay, I did it.. I guess I was just trash after all.. This game is a lot of fun, frustrating at times but an awesome twist on the genre. Opened up the game to play for a couple hours and here we are 8 hours later.. The art is beautiful, the music is beautiful. Really awesome to see something different.
