    Game: The Ascent

    Platform: Steam

    The Ascent is a cyberpunk-themed isometric action-shooter RPG, with an oddly annoying control scheme.

    This is not, technically, the first time I've played The Ascent. I played a short part of it -on PC- when it was on Xbox Game Pass. I remember being annoyed by the controls then, but forgot I'd installed it.

    Then it dropped in the August 2022 Humble Choice bundle, and I uninstalled it from the Xbox app and installed it on Steam, and promptly forgot about it.

    Turns out that was *exactly* twelve months ago.

    When starting it tonight, I remembered my annoyance with the controls, and turned on my controller.

    This is a game that feels like it was designed to be played with a controller. On a controller, and an isometric* game, moving with the left stick feels natural. WASD feels odd, because you're using two keys at a time.

    But targeting with the right stick feels like playing in glue. Maybe if it had snap-targeting, but it doesn't. Targeting with a mouse feels natural and particularly during the first frenetic boss battle, if I'd been trying to target with the controller, I'd probably have given up.

    My only other critique is that "isometric*" above. A lot of isometric games handle being behind an object by making it transparent, or outlining your character.

    The Ascent puts a circle on the ground, which can be a little hard to keep track of when you're behind a large fixed object during a frenetic boss battle.

    On top of this, it's isometric until it isn't. Suddenly, the camera is behind you for a while, but not when it might be helpful, like when you're behind a giant object during a frenetic boss battle.

    The gameplay and atmosphere are excellent. It nails that gritty cyberpunk feel. The mobs suddenly popping up out of nowhere give just the right amount of chills. The first level in the bowels of the city feels -and sounds- like you're underneath everything.

    The visuals and sound design when you complete your first major quest getting a machine running is great.

    The Ascent is a game that overcomes its weaknesses pretty damn well.

    The Ascent is:
