Thank you so much for beta testing our new game Ascension.
Any and all feedback you provide is greatly appreciated.
Ascension is now live as well!
Right now we are testing everything.
As a jumping puzzle game it may be difficult at first and will become easier as you learn more of the flow. It has been designed to always present a challenge no matter how much you have played or how much you have learned about the game; we don't ever want you to become bored!
Feedback on the design is welcomed.
For the EULA and Privacy Policy buttons make sure they link to our web page appropriately. Ensure Game Center login pop up appears at the top center of the screen and the start button works and takes you to the next scene.

This will show your stars earned time XP gained and any rewards. You can claim them by tapping the Claim button or watch an ad for a double reward by tapping the x2 Claim button.

Here is a brief video to show one way to obtain a 1 star time on the first stage.
A near flawless attempt of the first run will result in 2 stars earned.
Trial and error will result in some interesting runs. Eventually your unorthodox thinking and new jump styles will yield 3 star results!
Besides all this please play, enjoy, and break it if you can.
