The Village of Topia has become a bustling hub for explorers and warriors alike, who have traveled from hither and yon to catch a glimpse of the infamous Obelisk that appeared there many moons ago. Countless brave souls have attempted to trek through the slime covered halls of the dungeons that fill this entrancing monument but not all have made it back… What is it about this magnificent structure that continues to entice and challenge even the most experienced adventurers?

Could it be the numerous unique enemies to battle?
The way the experience feels customizable to optimize gear farming for you?
Perhaps it is the peculiar dungeon collectables used for crafting?
The continuous loot upgrades?
Or the incredible artwork found around the Realm and on the custom weapons, armor and artifacts?
Or is it the regular updates with new challenges, loot, cosmetics and game modes?

Whatever it may be that brings you to the Obelisk, one thing is assured, what you find inside is certain to keep you returning to its crisp stone steps time and time again. Are you brave enough to explore beyond the threshold and travel into the depths of the Dungeons of the Obelisk?

That’s right! It’s been a long two and a half years of development, but we are finally able to get our Steam Coming Soon page up. Our posted release date is March 28th, 2024. But we still have a lot to do before then…

Before the game launches we need to do some more bug hunting. That means we will soon be letting people into the Test Realm via Steam’s playtest feature. Head over to the DotO Store Page and sign up now.

The team at Knob Cat has worked so hard for us to get to this point and I appreciate their passion for this project. I really hope everyone feels the same way once they’re able to actually play.

Let’s keep this post short and sweet. Thank you for your interest in our game!

Cheers,

Whoa, I really slacked off on doing these blog updates… but we’re not here to discuss that. The last real blog post was a year ago. And, wow! We have done so much in a year.

The most asked question we get is, obviously, “When can I play DotO?”. The short answer is As Soon As Possible.

The longer answer is; we have been waiting to get all the basic features that are needed to fully enjoy the game. Everything that deals with the server has been a huge hassle and took way longer than we had thought! That being said, all features are finally in the game, but some still need a bit of polishing.

We hope to open a “Test Realm” soon where we can let members of the discord in to help us hunt for those game breaking bugs. The “Test Realm” will be completely deleted before the real game goes live. That means it’s purely for testing and you won’t be able to keep your progress. It also mean items in the shop will be free to purchase so that everything can get fully tested.

We’ll post more of the ins n’ outs and rules n’ regulations of testing once the “Test Realm” is actually live. So what’s stopping us from doing it right now? Well, legal stuff mostly. We have to meet with our lawyer in January and get all that good stuff squared away before we can make anything public.

And for those that stuck around to read this whole post, here’s a little preview of the cosmetic reward items that bug testers will receive…

And with that, that’s a pretty good update, right? Hopefully, we’ll all be fighting Glubs in the sewer’s of Topia real soon.
