Rising Islands is an adventure game where you’ll have to combine fast-paced action with quick thinking. Jump, shift, grind, dash and wallrun through a fantastic world that is fraying at the edges. New challenges await around every corner.
Rising Islands is finally on Steam!
It's cost us time, sweat and toil, but here we are, ready to launch!

Rising Islands finally has a release date! On August 2 you will be able to play Rising Islands on Steam.
A new Gameplay Teaser, Events across the water and letting the good times roll!
Here is an update of what we have been working on!
A demo if Rising is out! Switch between dimensions and run on walls whenever you want!
i really loved playing your game at EGX last week (even though it was a bit hard for me to play but i still liked the challenge) i hope it doesn't crash again like last time XD anyways good luck and this is the indie game that i'm going to look forwards to seeing the completion the most ^-^
Hi! Thank you very much for the praise. It was really fun attending EGX!
So i played the demo and i was really amazed! This game is really fun and also addicting!
I played the demo for nearly an hour before i had enough of the two playable levels, and i just did it for so long because i wanted to break my personal best time!
The graphics are pretty to look at, the main character kinda reminds me of Korra, but that doesn't mean it's bad!
The sound is also nice to listen to, although it gets kinda repetitive after an hour ^^.
All in all a very well made demo and i can't wait to see more of this beautiful and well-crafted game!
Keep up the good work ;)
Wow, thanks a lot! I'm glad you liked it :)
It's a cool game, but it's given me a few problems. Youtube.com
Hi. I watched your video. Thanks for the good feedback. I'm sorry you had trouble with the camera, but I'm glad you still thinks it's a cool game :)
For this demo we focused on the gamepad controls, but we know that some people don't have on or prefer playing with mouse and keyboard. We have learned a lot from this demo and we have a lot of new ideas that we hope to show more of soon.
I've played the new demo, seems like a perfect speedrunning game! It flows very well, nice controls, with only occasional moments where the camera isn't perfectly located.
Here's me playing the game on an i5 machine, 8Gb RAM and GeForce GTX 970 gfx: Youtube.com
The only obvious graphical glitch I saw was at the end of the second level, where some of the background flickered white as the camera swung round.
Hi! Thanks you for playing the demo. I watched your playthrough and I thought it was awesome! I am really happy that someone made a video of our game.
I've tried this game already (here in Skövde) and I really wan't to get my hands on this. The controls were great and it look very nice, specially for a unity game. Keep up the good work and I hope it will be a success! ;)
Thanks a lot! We are glad you liked it and we hope you will like the new demo even more :)
