Really good so far! Superb atmosphere and ambience, very organic procedural generation, and lots of mysteries begging you to go deeper and discover their meanings. Crafting is nice and streamlined, and consistently surprised me through the first few hours. My only nitpick is the combat seems very shallow for now, and gems falling off cliffs can be occasionally frustrating. Still had a great time, and I'm excited to play more and uncover the mysteries of the dungeon.

I have a ton of hours in the beta, and the Steam release more than doubles the content of that. Great game then, and now it's even better. Very challenging, lots of secrets and discovery, and there's nothing quite like it. TowerClimb is easily one of the best of its genre, and a must have if you're into roguelike platformers such as Spelunky. I usually don't speak in superlatives like this, but this is truly a platforming masterpiece.

EDIT: The game got a HUGE accessibility update. Full tutorial, control tweaking and options, an easy mode, and even some additional content. If you were worried about the brutal difficulty and barrier to entry, it's been way lessened. You won't regret it!

Great game. Atmospheric, clever, fun. A must-buy if you're a fan of adventure games with just a bit of action.

I don't usually go out of my way to recommend games, but this game is a real gem. Easily the best puzzle game of 2013, and extremely overlooked. The puzzle design is crazy tight and ingenious, with a "Eureka!" moment on just about every stage. It didn't sell well, and the developers have said that as a result their next game might be their last, so pick it up and help support them!
