A downloadable Pre-Alpha Demo

Ascending Feeling is my first ever long-term game project.

I want it to be sweet, and simple, but it's ultimate goal is to be a dating simulator that you advance by playing platformer levels and collecting things like gems from clearing levels.

There will also be a time-attack mode, where you will be able to test your mettle in running through the game as fast as possible via the built-in timer.

Please, if you enjoy this game, record your experience! Share it with your friends. I want this game to be as fun as possible, and I want it to become big. Share your thoughts with me as well, at my e-mail below!

EDIT July 15
-
Tutorial 5 is now easier.

Blue Gems will now spawn at the ends of levels if you collect every gem. They can only be collected once (per play session, save files being worked on)

Current best time is now displayed below current timer, saved per-level per-game session.

EDIT 2 - July 17
-
Added a new obstacle - slam enemies in certain levels will try to crush you either from below or from above!

Added save files! Your best times and whether or not you have collected a big gem now saves dynamically when you either use a doorway or quit through the main menu or pause menu.

Bug fix: Game no longer crashes if you die while paused.

EDIT 3 - July 19
-
Find the secret gem.

EDIT 4 - July 21
-
Some more fixing and adding small features.

This game is pretty tricky. The physics and game feel is pretty great. Although I feel like you should be able to regain your dash upon hugging a wall. I did want to try to collect all the gems but then I got disheartened when you need to go through the level deathless to collect all of em'. I wish it saved what you had.

Decent game

Ahh, yeah! The gems are a little tricky to collect for that reason. I have myself done this on every level for testing purposes but a couple of them took me a notoriously long time, I just haven't updated the demo yet.

this is truly the best feeling of all tim
