Hello fellow Cultists! It’s Byte Barrel here with a brand-new DevLog! In the [url=https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/2272250/view/4247539099368970474]latest piece[/url] we teased an enigmatic screenshot of an upcoming level; and today, we’re here to tell you more about this place, from the name reveal to atmosphere and inspirations behind it. Let’s dive in, shall we? [b]Beautiful and extremely deadly![/b] First of the two levels you will visit in our second content update is called "Botanic Garden". It’s home to a variety of flora, from colorful flowers to majestic trees, and many types of fungi including some truly enormous ones. Some of these intriguing species are on the brink of extinction, and their last specimens can only be found in this botanical garden. But don’t let appearances fool you. This very green and very beautiful place that looks like a peaceful oasis is, in fact, far from that. Bear in mind that your journey to this eye-catching place will not be a bed of roses, as this botanical garden has been invaded by a species that is, unfortunately, far from extinction and very difficult to eradicate – an ancient evil.

Renowned for its architectural innovation, it tragically burned down in 1936. In addition, we drew local inspiration straight from the beautiful city of Gdańsk, where our studio is based. The impressive steel framework found in the interior of Hala Targowa served as the skeleton for the Botanic Garden, creating a multi-story structure that players navigate through, eradicating eldritch horrors while fighting for survival. Since we have the basics and inspiration behind the level covered, let’s take a proper look at this place. Here are a few screenshots presenting the visuals of this gloomy, dark botanic garden.

Some of you were pretty close with your guesses and it’s finally time to unveil the mystery. It's a new weapon called Obelisk, the first variant to fill a spot in the exotic category. This powerful tool of destruction will be obtainable as a pickup, similar to the first weapon from each type that players unlock during their journey through this malevolent world.
