About the game

Original Steam description
BUILD YOUR PACK & FIGHT YOUR WAY OUT
Backpack Ascendancy is a single-player or 2-player co-op roguelite built around backpack inventory management, link bonuses between neighboring items, and swinging your weapons yourself in real-time dungeon fights.
KEY FEATURES
Inventory Management: arrange shaped gear, from compact knives to sprawling halberds and bulky armor, into a grid that grows as you unlock more space.
Real-Time, Hands-On Fights: no queued attacks. Click to strike, block incoming hits, and juggle cooldowns across your whole loadout at once.
Adjacency Synergies: place compatible items edge to edge to unlock extra damage, defense, elemental effects, and healing neither item grants on its own.
Five Hero Classes: start as the armored Warrior, the fast and fragile Rogue, the back-line Ranger, the glass-cannon Mage, or the relic-commanding Summoner.
200+ Items and Relics: six rarity tiers of weapons, armor, potions, and artifacts, each with its own shape and adjacency behavior.
A 200+ Star Ascendancy Web: spend crystals earned from runs on a sprawling radial passive tree for permanent, build-defining upgrades.
