This game is really funky and cool!! The only criticism I have is that the games resolution sorta betrays the game, if you stay in the middle you only need to move up or down since the side arms can't reach you so maybe it'd be better if the screen was a square or there were some longer arms that trip you up! I really like the death how it cuts out as you explode and the button and voice at the start reflect the game atmosphere well!!!
JUST GOT WHY ITS CALLED ASCENSION, all the arms reaching for the light, very clever!!
