Jusant just got a massive accessibility update

Jusant is a unique game that puts you at ease as you scale a mysterious tower. Not that many people were able to get their hands on it, but thanks to a recent massive accessibility update, more people than ever will now have the chance to check out one of 2023’s most interesting indie titles

A simplified climbing mode has been added to allow people to climb using joysticks instead of controller triggers. On top of that, the stamina mode is now disabled thanks to the addition of no stamina mode. If that’s not enough, we now also have alternate rappel mode, a simplified interactions mode, and jump assistance.

Even though the changes were mostly geared towards allowing players with differing abilities to access the game, you don’t need to have any impairments to enjoy the new features. You can just turn them on for a more relaxing and comfortable experience.
