Hello Ascenders,
This update marks the return of the revamped leaderboard—now separated by difficulties—and brings a major increase to the maximum level cap!
We will continue to address issues as quickly as possible and work toward delivering the best Ascend to ZERO experience. Much of this progress has been made possible by the community’s reports and help in identifying potential issues. Please continue to letting us know how we can improve the game via the CS forms found here, on Discord in the appropriate channels, or in the Steam discussions. Thank you!
