Today’s Spotlight is One Step From Eden, a deckbuilding action-roguelite by Thomas Moon Kang, Humble Bundle, and Maple Whispering Limited.

The game features nine playable characters, hundreds of cards, and over one hundred items that can further modify your playstyle. There are also branching paths depending on who you execute, and who you decide to show mercy.
One Step From Eden includes full Steam Workshop integration for extra replayability, and players can take along a co-op partner. You can find the launch trailer below.
One Step From Eden is available on Windows PC, Linux, Mac (all via Steam), and Nintendo Switch for $19.99.
