About oOo: Ascension
Indie platformer/puzzler oOo: Ascension is now available on Steam!
Navigate your ship through short but ferociously difficult levels in the shortest time possible without touching any walls, spinning blades, lasers or countless other hazards that will try to destroy you in the process. oOo: Ascension revisits the ramping difficulty of old-school arcade games, whereby each challenge CAN be completed in a matter of seconds - however doing so ranges in difficulty from hard to straight-up rage-inducing.
Glowing neon visuals and an electronic soundtrack make oOo: Ascension an immersive experience as you glide your way through 90 uniquely challenging levels, racing against the clock in a test of skill, reflexes and patience in this award nominated Indie Speedrunner.
Features
- A lightning-paced test of reflexes and skill across 90 levels split into 9 Sectors, each with it's own unique challenges and visual style
- Local Co-op mode - race with (or against) a friend!
- Leaderboards to see how you rank globally for each Sector
- Stunning neon visuals and immersive electronic soundtrack
- Ghosts allow you to see your fastest time for each level, or latest attempt if you haven't completed it yet

A very fun yet very difficult little time trial obstacle course game, controls are very responsive (so long as your responsiveness setting is at 10, 1 "smooths" out jerkiness), though they are not rebindable (not that the control scheme is bad, it's actually good), and there is no long respawn delay or need to manually respawn after dying (which you'll be doing a lot in this game), which makes it very much based on your skill and patience with a joystick. Each sector has its own central gimmick and visual scheme. Graphics are simple and clear, though the music loops, while good, are a bit on the short side. As far as challenge goes, some levels are short, especially around the start, only requiring a few seconds to complete, while others, especially as you progress further, are full blown obstacle courses which make achieving the seemingly high par time difficult. Some levels have (possibly unintended) shortcuts which can shove off many seconds while going for par or leaderboards. Unfortunately I cannot speak for the local multiplayer mode, as I do not own 2 controllers. Overall I'd recommend this game to people who enjoy challenges and time trials, as long as you have a working c…5 found this helpful

Challenging puzzles with great gameplay. Amazing graphics!1 found this helpful
Neat maze racer, very smooth and polished gameplay. Challenging, but never unfair. Each spherical stage is cleared in seconds, therefore the perfect game to suspend and resume for brief sessions. Runs without any issues on SteamOS and Deck spec'd hardware.1 found this helpful
This is a really fun game. I love the level designs and the controls are so smooth. It ran perfect for me on Steam Deck so it was the perfect game to play portably.1 found this helpful
Pretty good speedrunner. A few pet peeves: I can't put the game in windowed mode, and it doesn't remember my settings for music and vibration (if it even has a vibration setting). For the sale price, I'm not really complaining.
