As you climb this place, you will fall countless times, sinking into despair. Prove that you're not just a loudmouth coward—reach the top. The 2D platforming jump game that will break your keyboard: I Wanna Ascend.
"Hey you"
"Let me give some advice"
"Don't waste your time, you'd better just stay in this shelter"
"It suits a coward like you"

Countless hardships and trials await you. Spikes everywhere, spinning saw blades, falling platforms, and merciless terrain...

Hmm... Maybe the smoking guy was right. Perhaps it's better to stay in the shelter and not waste your time...

Hmm... Do you still want to Ascend this place?
Then prove it with your actions.
