We are very proud of this collaboration as Dead Cells is the most popular of our genre of Platformer Roguelike games it is probably the game that defined this genre the most. It is also a game we took inspiration from for its fluidity of movement and nervous action.
If you do not own Dead Cells already, you can now purchase it alongside Astral Ascent in a bundle!
