Next second into Survivor’s face start to flow Darkness. It is black, viscous. Darkness attacks Survivor’s eyes and mouth. Survivor begin to shudder in agony and soften lifelessly after it. Obscurant drops dead body carelessly.

Killer’s look.

In the northern reaches of the Machine Wastes lies the city of Kurtovsk: a great metropolis laid waste by the mysterious Obscurance. Skyscrapers stretch high above the clouds, with rooftops now connected by an intricate network of bridges and cables. Only the hardiest adventurers survive up here - how will you fare? Yes, we have reached the next major phase of development for Obscurant, as well as the next major region. Kurtovsk will feature new enemies with unique mimicry mechanics, as well as region-specific mechanics to help you get from rooftop to rooftop. This region is darker than the Machine Wastes, and represents the civilization that was left behind before the events of the game. You will also meet some new characters, including a band of adventurers on a quest in the city. They will help guide you along the way and help you understand the nature of this city and the world at large. This is when the game really begins to open up, and its secrets begin to reveal themselves. Look forward to exploring the rooftops of Kurtovsk when Obscurant launches. And as always, follow us on Twitter, wishlist the game on Steam, and keep checking here for more updates.

Has it really been a month since the last development update? I swear, April 2020 might as well have not existed.

In any case, the past month brought with it some cool new features in Obscurant. Most notably, a second enemy type (and matching disguise) as well as the beginnings of a dialog system. With two enemies at play, each with their own mechanics, I hope to start prototyping some interesting level ideas. Stay tuned!
