Hello everyone,
Whole Hibernian Workshop team is wishing you a great 2023 ahead! 😊 We are back from holidays and are ready to do our best for this coming year!
On our side 2023 is very promising & exciting, we will have the final release of Astral Ascent with physical and console editions, the 12 Zodiacs & the final boss, Calie, Yamat & even more things coming!
We wish Astral Ascent to be one of the best roguelites experience of 2023, count on us to do our absolute best to reach your expectations for the game! ✨
While we released the exporter update in December 2022, we also made great progresses on the World 4 update - The Crimson Highlands, please check below some of the exciting new features coming very soon!
Calie the geomancer!
Calie is the last of the heroes to be released for Final Release and she is coming very soon. She fights with stones that she can shapes into very varied weapons. As Octave she fights from a longer range but her attacks go through all enemies leaving stones there. Her utility spell, calls back the stones to her dealing extra damage and effects on the way back.
We personally really love her gameplay and wish you will like her as much as we do!
The Crimson Highlands
This is the final world of the game, the wind world and the closest to the final boss. The Zodiacs there (Libra, Aquarius & Gemini) are the most dangerous of all.
The enemies are also more dangerous and more intense as you can see below -
New traps & new enemies
Deadly Enemy
Libra, the deadliest of all
We are sure you are impatient to fight against Libra, one of the 2 bosses from next Update, we have to tell you she is extremely strong right now and she will be your toughest challenge in the game so far.
This was a quick sneak peak update, this update will be released Q1 2023, hopefully very soon. Also, we wanted to tell you that we are aware of some elements that need polish in the game right now, there is so many things that we want to improve but we decided to start with the world 4 update and do a lot of polish between world 4 and final release.
Having the whole game experience will make things much easier for us to balance the game and have the most appropriate design changes.
Have a great day,
- The Hibernian Workshop Team
