Tired of the same old first-person shooters? Get ready to embark on a cosmic journey like no other in Dream Tango: Ascension, a Celestial Wave Shooter that takes you beyond the ordinary.

Dream Tango is not just a game—it's a first-of-its-kind, expansive, immersive saga that will unfold across multiple mediums. Inspired by the concept of astral projection, this thrilling adventure will be brought to life through VR games and an animated series, creating a rich, multidimensional universe.

In Dream Tango: Ascension, the Primordial Gods have hidden the powerful Items of Creation at the highest point in the cosmos—the Astral Sanctum. You play as a young spirit traveler, lost and with only faint memories of your past, set on a path to reclaim these cosmic relics. This VR wave shooter combines fast-paced combat with melee mechanics, plunging you into intense arenas where you must defeat waves of Hecate-Astraea’s minions. Raise your XP, climb the Celestial Leaderboard, and uncover hidden secrets that reveal your true origin.

The final destination? The Higher Sanctum of the Dream Dimension, where an epic battle against a god-like being awaits. This might just be one of the most jaw-dropping boss battles VR has ever seen.

Dream Tango: Ascension delivers an action-packed experience that will keep you hooked. And the journey is just beginning—the world of Dream Tango will soon unravel through various mediums, so stay tuned for updates!

Punishing difficulty

Wow this game is hard! I set it to the easiest difficulty and I'm getting slapped around like I've never played a video game in my life! It's punishing! I know that if I'm able to get the hang of certain specific control techniques it will be better. But it's really complicated. The game emphasizes the need to teleport during combat to evade, but you have to both face the direction you want to jump to, and point the stick in the direction you want to have when you land the teleport. So you can technically teleport behind an enemy and be facing them which is a really cool concept. But the coordination required to do it is like trying to pat your head and rub your tummy simultaneously while under pressure in fast paced combat. It gets insanely chaotic trying to get the hang of the controls and I just die over and over and over.

I'm going to keep trying, but it's hard, so be warned.

Overall, the game doesn't have much depth. I expected a bit more than just waves of enemies that increase in number like a survival mode. I hope it gets better

Hi dear 51963,

thank you for your feedback! Truly valuable insights. And yes, we have a much awaited update coming sometime soon. We are in a prolonged Early Access mode atm. Hopefully coming updates to the IP won't disappoint.

P.S. As we are expanding this universe, in other formats too, positive reviews are a huge boost for the whole team. :)

Catch me in the Astral Planes! [Rank 5]

DTA is an enjoyable VR game that offers a good challenge and an interesting lore. Not only does it have a unique aesthetic that sets it apart from other games, the fact that it was created by a one to two-person dev team makes it even more impressive!

The game features progressive difficulty, a decent tutorial, and a good variety of enemies to fight against. Players can level up incrementally, which improves their stats and makes them better equipped to take on the game's increasingly difficult challenges. TBH this game feels like a trippy fever dream version of classic wave-shooter arcade games I loved as a child and I mean that in the best way. It’s actually quite addictive the more difficult things get because you repeatedly try to top yourself while getting farther up the leaderboards.

DTA has a great soundtrack and well-done voice acting, which helps to create an immersive atmosphere. Players can choose between teleporting or smooth movement, providing flexibility and accommodating different playstyles.
One of the most compelling aspects of DTA is the dedication the game dev has for creating a rich and detailed lore that spans across multiple games and even future comic books. The game's world has secrets, hidden areas, and mysterious creatures that hint at a much larger story for the player to uncover. This suggests that there is a lot more to this world than what is seen in the game, and that players can expect to learn more about the game's expanded lore/universe in the future.

Dream Tango Ascension is a VR game that has clearly been crafted with a lot of love and care. As a passion project, it is unlikely to be abandoned in a year like some other popular VR games. I will give it a 5/5 stars due to my appreciation of the aesthetics, difficulty, and consistent improvements made by a small dev team (got to show 'em some appreciation). If you’re a fan of wave-shooters, astral projection, spirituality, and virtual reality this is the game for you!

Are you worthy of ascension?

This game is BEAUTIFUL!!! I'm so in love with the graphics style.
Visuals are stunning, music is perfect.
Little Pallas is so freakin' adorable! I want him.
Gameplay is good. I played on easy and died a few times. Some of the enemies are tricky.
I played for about an hour and only unlocked 4 out of 56 achievements. This game will last a while!

Travel The Cosmos

Dream Tango is a unique story driven arena wave shooter that takes place in the cosmos. We are a spirt traveler able to pass through the cosmic realm looking for powerful artifacts. The game has a great cosmic look to the environments, and very unique enemies and bosses. We have a great selection of weapons and powers to fight these enemies and bosses as well. From a cosmic sword, energy beam and energy shield to a blade that looks like something from the Predator movie. Throw these all together with a good story and we have an excellent wave shooter.

The controls are great as well. It has a movement option for everyone. Teleport, smooth locomotion and roomscale. Everyone should feel comfortable playing this title. The combat, both melee and range felt amazing and took no time to master.

The game was challenging and fun, and brings you back for more. If you are into wave shooters with a twist and good story, this is a game you will want to try for sure. Just download the demo and try for yourself, and you will be hooked. Also if you enjoy the demo, now is a great time to buy while its still in early access with a 60% discount.
Jump into the cosmos, unlock secrets of the past and enjoy a great wave shooter.

Fighting Astral Beings in VR

This game is great if you are into the paranormal and know about the things that people encounter when they Astral project. The beings are wild looking and massive! Here is a link to my video review!
