Ascending Inferno just had one of its biggest updates yet!! :) including a whole new Japanese localisation.

I just wanted to post some of my UI reworks that got added this patch as I was pretty happy with how it turned out (Hopefully for the better) :D

Was lucky enough to get the opportunity to take Ascending Inferno to Japan at Bitsummit. Was a lot of fun and met so many amazing people! Thanks to @igea.bsky.social for hosting us and organising everything for us, truly an awesome experience.

This is a short film project that got some funding that I got to work on during early 2024 with some very talented artists :)
