Ascension by tvle83
In Ascension, you play as a demi god sent to the human realm to prove your worth to the gods.
In order to ascend and become a full god, you must complete the tasks the God’s have assigned you.
The only catch – it’s against the order of the gods for demi-gods to intervene directly in the human realm.
Use the recruited acolytes to accomplish your tasks.
Do you possess the resolve to complete the gods task and complete your ascension; even if that means sacrificing those around you?
Notes: No audio, you didn't go deaf :)
Red particle effects are apples Yellow particle effects are gold You can use space to dash.

@danilo-freire we did have fun. We are happy with the mechanics that made it in the game but it's probably 1/10th what we planned.
@luqey the boxes have gold (yellow stuff ) and apples(red stuff) that are collection quests. We were going to have them given out at the temples but instead just made them global quests.
Thank you everyone for your feedback and kind words. Obviously we were not done with it but we do plan on finishing it to our true vision.
Like @eli-delventhal, I thought the fire was pretty useless as well, just because of the range. I didn't run into a single enemy that had a range shorter or the same length as the fire, which made it not worth my time to use. Also like you said to @mgoadric about the win/death having the same screen, knowing now what you had intended behind it, it's funny, but at the time I didn't get it. It would be cool to implement something that showed it was on purpose, but I don't know how you would do that.
I really liked this game overall though, I thought it was really cool what you got done in such a short time!
Well done! :smile:
