Ascent:TSG follows a Freemium model: The game is free to play, allowing a player to build settlements on two inner-system planets, mine asteroids, collect rare gases, fight pirates, complete contracts, and build a private space station. A premium subscription allows a player to mine/farm the remaining more lucrative planets in the inner-8 systems, allows outer system planet colonization and Orbital Space Base construction, fit class 6 and higher ship modules, access to more challenging pirate combat, and allows a large expansion of the player's private space station.

It began with the banks. All greed and no caution led to a chain of collapses. Businesses followed them down, and one by one the big names fell. Then the governments started going bust. First the planetary governments, then the interplanetary.
+
  
We lost our savings. We lost our jobs. We lost our homes, and we began to lose each other. There were riots for food. At first the government quelled them, but later, there was no government, and nobody to put a stop to the violence, which spread, burning through our worlds like fire through dry grass. Cities burned, and emptied, and lay in ruin.

Nobody kept the libraries, the archives, or the news feeds, and we started losing our memory, our knowledge, our technology, our future. We began to fall.

Nobody was left to keep maintaining our communications networks, our star gates between the worlds, or our space stations, and one by one, they began to fail. We have lost contact with many colonies. They are now alone in the black. Finally, burning and war torn, Earth itself was lost to us when the last of the star gates failed.

Just eight systems remain connected. A tiny portion of the military remained loyal. With no pay and little provisions, they still keep the peace. Arrayed against them are all the forces of anarchy, chaos and terror. They stand alone, holding back the flood.

Our systems are failing. Our people are starving and lost. Our factories empty and silent, our fields sown with weeds. Chaos is consuming our whole race, one town, one city, one planet at a time. We are running out of food, components, and material. We are running out of time. We are running out of hope.

[edit] Ascent The Space Game (Terms of Use)

Ascent:TSG is a fully 3-Dimensional PC space game developed by Fluffy Kitten Studios using the Unity5 engine containing 270 billion explorable star systems. Players can trade, explore, manufacture modules, colonize planets and moons, build massive Outer Star Bases (OSB), and fight with NPC pirates. The game is continually updated.


The wiki is an extension of game lore. Most knowledge and information was lost during the collapse. Part of the object of the game is to reclaim that knowledge. The wiki is the repository of much of that knowledge we, the "Pilot Citizens" (PC), are actively reclaiming. The wiki is supplied and updated by the Ascent community. While it may be a little behind in some areas, multiple players voluntarily work to keep it as update as possible so all others can have access to whatever game details we have gathered to date. Game Lore can be found here.

Official new game lore also slowly emerges primarily on the game forums in the Politics section. Like in any culture that is struggling, there are rumors galore. Be careful trusting everything you hear on the COMMS. "Just because they say it, it doesn't make it so." Those who work on the wiki strive to record only validated information to build a solid base to reclaim our knowledge, history, and technology.
