About the Game

Ascend to the Earth's Surface and take back what's yours!

Inspired by vertical shmups like ZeroRanger and first-person shooters like Doom Eternal, Ascended Survivor delivers intense combat with action-packed music and deep lore.



You play as the Survivor, a human trapped at the center of the Earth. Your memories of your life on the surface are a jumbled haze. All you know is that you had a beautiful life on the surface and that it was all taken away from you. With your mangled body and the prototype DMS-0 mining ship, you'll tear apart anything that gets in the way of your quest to get your home back!



Ascended Survivor plays like the shmups you know and love, with the addition of a close-range melee attack. Add in special abilities, and you got a unique combat system that combines the perspective of vertical arcade shooters and the mechanics of character action games.

Each episode of Ascended Survivor takes place in a new layer of the planet, with striking environments and unique enemies and bosses. incredible design awaits around every level!
