Hey folks, after a year in Early Access, Ascending Madness is now officially released!
Thank you to everyone who supported us along the way. We feel Ascending Madness offers a unique/fresh take on the twin stick shooter experience with some original movement mechanics and a dark psychedelic vibe.
We really hope you all enjoy it!
More updates to come in the future as we continue to support Ascending Madness and begin generating ideas for our next game.
Until then, have a good one.
Content Complete! Plus A look inside Merrick's Battlecraft
If you've been following Ascending Madness at all you might be wondering, just what the hell is that floating skeleton head you play as...
And with that I'm happy to say we just uploaded another level for you all to enjoy, including the game's epilogue, making Ascending Madness now 100% content complete! There are still a few things left to polish up and whatnot but the game is mostly done and just about ready for release.
We really appreciate everyone who has purchased and supported Ascending Madness during our Early Access journey! We've learned a ton and look forward to building upon that knowledge in our future games. In the meantime expect a post in the upcoming month or so announcing the full release.
Until then have a good one.

Check out these Bosses
Hey everyone!
This month we're showing off a couple bosses you can expect to battle in Ascending Madness.
We hope you find them equally terrifying and intriguing.
With these bosses finished the final level is almost ready for release!
After that we will be adding some additional content and polishing features taking us right to the game's completion. Yes, that's right, Ascending Madness is almost complete!
We are really excited about this and hopefully will be doing a full release of the game sometime this summer. Stay tuned for final updates and more information regarding the release soon.
Until then, have a good one!
Final Boss Sneak Preview
Hey everyone! Here's a sneak concept preview for one of Ascending Madness's final bosses!
Meet "Transitioned Skylar". Since she's still being developed in game we decided to show this flattering shot of her instead.
The devouring of billions of souls has left her rather distorted in appearance but still strong in appetite. Among other things she has the ability to cause intense hallucinations and summon multiple apparitions, which encircle their target and prey on its soul. We told you the end would get weird!
During the next month we will continue to work on the final bosses of the game. Look for another content update featuring more screenshots/images next month as we near the completion of Ascending Madness!
Until then, have a good one!
Last Level Lasers!
Hello again!
For this quick update we're showing off a cool laser puzzle from inside the depths of an Alpha Corp spaceship.
The 'Spaceship level' is the final level in Ascending Madness, featuring multiple bosses and some insanely mad plot twists as the story reaches its bizarre conclusion.
Check back next month for some awesome pics of one of the levels bosses!
Until then have a good one everyone.
Visceral Realm Released!
We just released the Visceral Realm level!
Encounter the madness, pain, and malevolence in Skylar's mind, as well as your own, as you travel through a dimension experienced only by 'Our Creators'.
What's Next?
Up next we are working on the final level(s) of the game which will feature Laser Puzzles and New Boss Battles!
More info coming next month.
Until then, have a happy new year!
Visceral Realm Teasers
Hey! Just a quick update. Here's a few teaser shots of the Visceral Realm level we are working on!
The Ball of Souls
An Interdimensional Castle
The Visceral Realm is still on schedule for release early December.
Upon its release we will post a bit more detailed info about the new enemies, runes, etc in the level. We also will outline the exciting things coming next for Ascending Madness!
Until then have a good one everybody.
"The Moon Lagoon" Out Now and First Sale!
Hey everyone!
In between Story levels we decided to surprise everyone and release an all new Challenge Mode level called "The Moon Lagoon"!
Fight your way through waves of procedurally generated mini-dragons in a lagoon, on the moon! If it sounds bizarre, it definitely is, but that's the joy of having a game called Ascending Madness.
More good news, with the release of the Moon Lagoon we are having our first sale!
Now is a great time to pick-up Ascending Madness, at 20% off!
And with the Moon Lagoon released we are focusing all our attention on the next Story level, 'the Visceral Realm'.
This inter-dimensional realm kicks the madness in Merrick's mind up a notch and will be unlike anything he has yet experienced in the "real world". The plan is to release the level by December, so stay tuned for teaser screenshots, new enemy info and more in a couple weeks!
Until then, have a good one.
Jungleuphoria is Released!
Just posting a quick update. Our newest level Jungleuphoria has been released!
As Merrick enters the heart of the jungle his hallucinations reach their peak. 'The Gods' begin directly communicating with his mind, taking him along a surreal journey dating back to the formation of the universe.
We believe this is one of our most interesting and diverse levels yet and we hope you enjoy it!
What's Next?
We are starting the next level, tentatively called 'The Visceral Realm', where things get even weirder (if that's possible).
Skylar and Merrick finally meet and things take a sick, inter-dimensional turn for the worst.
We have a lot of cool ideas in store for this new level! Look for more info including early images of the Visceral Realm in a couple weeks!
