Hello Ascenders,
At long last, we are extremely proud to announce that Ascend to ZERO v1.0 has officially launched!! For all of you that have played during Steam Next Fest, one of our playtests, or any of the iterations of the Ascend to ZERO Demo -- we cannot thank you enough and we welcome all returning and new Ascenders to the world of Ascend to ZERO!
About Ascend to ZERO
Ascend to ZERO is a time-bending action-roguelike where you can use your unique ability to freeze time and fight your way to the top. From the moment you begin a run, a ticking timer governs
everything: combat, upgrades, death, and survival. The timer is both your best friend and
your worst enemy as you race against time by bending it to your will!
6 Unique Playable Avatars: Each Avatar has a different growth profile and special skills, so switching Avatars isn't just a cosmetic choice. It changes which stats climb fastest and shapes how a run plays out.
Time is Yours to Command: Every run starts with a timer (initially 30 seconds on the clock). However, you wield the power to stop time - hit the button and everything nearby freezes: enemies, projectiles, weapons, the clock. Race against time by mastering it!
Get Strong Fast - Exponentially Fast: Within a single run, a character can go from
level 1 to well into the hundreds of thousands just by fighting through enemies, collecting XP, special gear and tech chips along the way.Make Custom Builds Tailored to your playstyle: There is no wrong way to play! Want to be a glass-cannon? No problem, make a build that decimates anyone who stands in front of you. Speed is the name of your game? Lock and load as you zip around your enemies while maintaining a safe distance! Every choices you make can drastically alter each run!

About Ascend to ZERO Additional Content
To celebrate the launch of the game, the team here wanted to make some fun content that you guys had been asking for. The first one is the Original Soundtrack of Ascend to ZERO. We have gotten consistently positive responses to the music of the game and we are extremely proud that we are able to share it with you guys! There are a ton of tracks that will keep you guys listening to the sweet tunes of Ascend to ZERO. The second is a bit more of a fun one - a Supporter Pack! Style and profile in all gold as 6 gold skins (one for each of the playable Avatars) can be yours! Please do note that the skins provided in this DLC are purely aesthetic and you do not need this DLC to complete the game. You will simply look wonderfully golden.
Going Forward
Ascend to ZERO v1.0 is the culmination of our teams efforts and dreams. As we have been doing with the demo and previous public iterations of the game, the team is going to keep a close eye on this launch to make sure it is as problem-free as possible. We plan to do updates and hot-fixes as we move forward, so please continue to give us your feedback and bug-reports in our official channels, whether it be on Steam, on our Official Discord, or on feedback form.
