Hello adventurers!
As you already know, there is no better way to play Across the Obelisk than with your friends!
Since we started designing the game, both of us (Hans and Rhin) always had the idea that this had to be a cooperative game, innovating and introducing the possibility to play with your friends in the rogue-lite deckbuilding genre. Today we can say confidently that we believe Across the Obelisk is the best co-op deckbuilding experience within the genre, and certainly one of the best ways to play the game in any of the modes available is with your friends!
If you agree with this and want to support us, please nominate us for the "Better with Friends" category in the Steam awards by clicking the above button!
We also wanted to tell you that we are continuing to work tirelessly on patch 1.1. Previously, we’ve shown you the Frozen Sewers mini-zone, and today we’re taking the opportunity to give you a preview of the Black Forge and the enemies you will encounter within!
The Black Forge is located inside the Velkarath Volcano, and is one of the mini-zones that will be added in patch 1.1. You may have gone past it (or even taken a brief peek inside) on your previous adventures!
Besides these two mini-zones, we are working on having a number of other things ready for the patch, including full controller support, a combat log of cards played in combat, many new corruptions (and tweaks to the old ones!), new themed weeklies and new cardbacks for each of them, and some other surprises that we will reveal over time!
That's all for today! If you like the game and you haven't already, please leave us a review and don’t forget to vote for the game in the Steam festival!
As always, thanks to all of you for your support, feedback, and understanding!
Happy Holidays,
