How it feels

A tense precision platformer where two characters navigate a dark, story-driven Abyss, relying on careful timing and mutual understanding to overcome obstacles.

What players say

Players compare The Rise to Celeste, calling it a shorter, harder take with dash-based wall jumping. They praise the level design and addictive challenge but report janky controls and input lag, especially on the dash, and wish the game were longer.
