From Pirate PR and Oppolyon Studios
28 OCTOBER 2024 – Oppolyon Studios is a small indie gamedev team from “down under” and they are proud to launch their first game, Ascending Inferno, which is Out now on Steam, for $14.99 USD! (regional prices may vary)
The Foddian soccer platforming game offers more content than what you’re used to from the genre, with various layers of hell to ascend, each with their own unique challenges. And remember: one mistake and you could lose a ton of progress! But that won’t happen… if you have the skills!
What is a” Foddian” game? A game with straightforward mechanics that is very challenging, requires precision and is unforgiving of mistakes. “Foddian” refers to the creator of the first (and most popular) game in the genre, Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy.
Ascending Inferno may be challenging at times, but more accessible and forgiving and tells the story of two siblings climbing their way up from hell. Face the struggle together and take comfort in knowing you’re not alone!
