It isn't flawless by any means, yet it does so much right that it would be hard for me not to recommend it. Starting with a negative, even without having played Hades it is very clear that this game is quite derivative of it and even though it never bothered me in the flow of the game, the writing can feel very stereotypical at times. That being said though, the game is fun as hell. The choices you make within a run feel interesting enough to keep someone playing for a good while and the increase in difficulty you can get through the Destiny System can end up making every win feel like a milestone. I am currently on Destiny lvl 47 and it's hard as balls, yet it doesn't feel like it's cheap by any means. Even when the writing feels stereotypical at times, the story did have me hooked enough to care about the characters and all their respective endings. I can say it's very clear that the devs care about this game, with the updates it's getting giving me an incentive to return to the game every time.

Play this game in co-op. My experience with it was actually pretty funny, I started the game a few times and my first impression was that it felt kind of average, with a poorly written story. It wasn’t until my fourth attempt, when I was looking for something to play co-op with a friend, that we gave it a proper run, and that’s when it clicked. The combat is insane, the boss fights are epic, the animations are amazing, and there’s a great variety of moves and builds. The story also became more interesting as we got to know the characters. They all have strong identities and are a great interpretation of the zodiac signs. It’s really cool to see that the heroes also deal with personal issues, insecurities, fears, and internal struggles. Honestly, congrats on the game. You really nailed it. If I had one critique, it would be the introduction. I’m not sure what it is, but something almost kept me from experiencing such an amazing game, and I imagine that could happen to others too. Maybe if the opening mission had a companion bot, so players could immediately see how skills can combo with another character, or if the intro started with a super powerful version of a character to give a glimpse of how cool combat can get once you’re fully built. That’s just a very personal take. I’m really glad I stuck with it, and I feel bad for those who might not give it a second chance, they’re missing out on a great game.

Godlike title. One of the absolute BEST sidescrolling action roguelikes. Honestly, it probably takes the crown from Dead Cells, without exaggeration.

Let me preface this review by stating that I am not a story guy. Really. In most games, story, lore and worldbuilding are icings on the gaming cake. They're nice, but I don't need them, I just need the gameplay to be fun. Not only is Astral Ascent's gameplay more than fun, the setting, and these characters, have immersed me so much that it has secured it's place as my third favorite video game of all time. Please, play it.

Lovely game that has been getting consistent, high quality updates for a while now. Incredible visual style and entertaining gameplay that is satisfying to master. Unlockable meta progression comes quickly, but the modular difficulty is what makes the game very replayable. I've poured a lot of time into this game and have enjoyed every minute of it, and I'm sure I'll keep coming back. I wish the devs success in their future projects.
