Hello everyone,

Exclusive physical rewards

You will be able very soon to grab exclusive physical elements of the game for a limited period of time.
This is by far our biggest event yet, please learn about the event 🌠

Zodiac reveal

You already know Taurus ♉, who is waiting to fight you in the demo ⚔️



It is time to reveal you another of the 12 Zodiacs of Astral Ascent : Virgo ♍



She is as dangerous as she looks, she is very quick and will be a though challenge in the game! Oh and you will be able to meet her in the demo!

Gambits

As developers this is one of the most challenging mechanic we made, as players we think it is awesome!
Gambits are elements you place in your spells to add new elements to them.


For example here we equipped a fire effect modificator to a basic shuriken spell which adds explosions to enemies.


With several gambits any spell can become deadly!

We worked hard so every spell having a gambit will display particles showing what gambit is attached 🔥
As you can imagine there is plenty of combinations to try to find powerful combos and to fit your playstyle.

Hello everyone,

This is our first update of 2021 so all the team joins me to wish you a very happy new year!

We are very excited of what is going to happen, it is going to be the year of Astral Ascent !✨

Our team new year resolutions:

• Resolution 1 - improve our Steam Page
  
  
  Maybe we did it again and improved once more everything up visually, we are now very happy about the quality level and decided it was time to show it on our Steam Page that had very old graphics on it.
  
  
  
  
  
  
• Resolution 2 - improving playtests
  
  We started a new playtest routine by making new version of the game every friday to make a playtest session with the team. It is very important to make we keep an eye on the game quality and to train ourselves making frequent updates when needed!
  
  Playtest sessions are captured to be sure we have all bugs recorded and ready to be eradicated!
  It is also a great opportunity to witness the progress we make and capture gifs and screens!
  
  
  
  
  
• Resolution 3 - have a great logo
  
  
  
  How to start better new year than with an updated logo?
  It has been a collaborative and iterative effort in the team before everyone agreed on this version.
  It really reflects a lot about the game and its intention and a few secrets are hidden inside. We will use it more and more in our communication.
  
  
• Resolution 4 - make intense teasing
  
  
  So... we clearly have big news on the way for Astral Ascent and we cannot wait to share them with you but we still need to wait a bit, we promise that you will not wait too long!😊
