Story

The world of Ascendria is ruled by the Celestials, ancient beings who hold the balance of power in their hands. Each century, a warrior is chosen to undergo the Ascension Trials—a gauntlet designed to test the limits of mortal strength and resolve.

About the development:

This is my second GameJam I ever attended and this time I wanted to challenge myself with an old school arena shooter. To be honest my vision was better than the so called "final" product but I didn't have as much time as I wanted. Beside the enemies (a friend of mine wanted to help as an exercise for his 3D journey) and the human models, it was a solo project.

I did the programming, animations, textures, levels, shaders. Sadly I had a lot of real life work so it's not polished nor finished in anyway but still proud that with such a short time I did a lot in my opinion.
