Prototype Release


The wait is over, the prototype of A Thug's Ascension has been finally released! The community can now play the game and give us direct feedback!



A Thug's Ascension has now been released as a closed prototype on itch.io under the itch.io refinery program. All those who have registered as external playtesters in our Discord server will receive a key using which they can get the game. You can join the Moonwalk Games Discord server [edit: server discontinued] to register as a playtester if you want to play the game. Playtesters will be able to talk to the development team directly and provide feedback to us, which we will compile in 2 weeks, after which we'll look into what is to be done with the project, that is, whether to continue with it or not.

Remember that the prototype is an extremely early version of the game and we are years away from the full release. For the prototype we have given foremost attention to gameplay, and art has been, to a large extent, ignored. So if you get a key, please ignore the visuals. Try to overlook some of the known bugs. As a playtester, you mainly have to answer one simple question, "Is the game fun?" Did you enjoy the game? Or was it frustrating? What was frustrating? What did you like and what did you dislike?

Here are some screenshots:













You have full permission to do anything you want with the game except breaking copyright laws and our user agreements. You can stream the game all you want and you sell your recordings for a million dollars each, we don't care.
