EMBER ASCENT

One flame. One tower. Don't let the void catch you.

Run, jump and flame-jump up a spiral of floating platforms at dusk. Light lantern checkpoints, gather sparks for points — and reach the beacon at the top before your three flames burn out.

Why it's fun

Flame-jump — a mid-air second jump turns long gaps into clutch saves.
Spiral tower level — 20+ floating pads, movers that slide, gems, lantern checkpoints.
Three flames — fall into the void and respawn at your last lantern; lose all three and the run ends.
Beat-the-clock scoring — 50 per spark, 100 per lantern, a big bonus for fast summit runs.
True 3D chase camera — orbit with mouse drag on desktop, drag-to-look on touch.
Zero assets — every model, texture and sound is generated in code.
