Over the past couple of years it has generated positive responses from various indie game shows and it&#8217;s certainly action-packed if the trailer above is anything to go by. Self-described as a &#8216;a blend of bullet hell action and card game strategy&#8217;, you&#8217;ll be crafting decks from a selection of over 200 spells and chaining together combos in battles against multiple enemies and bosses as you make your way to the eponymous Eden.<\/p>\n<p>The main design and development of One Step From Eden appears to be primarily the work of <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ThomasMoonKang\">Thomas Moon Kang<\/a>, although three other people are listed on the game&#8217;s Kickstarter page, two of whom are composers. Here are some of the features highlighted in the <a href=\"https:\/\/onestepfromeden.com\/presskit\/\">official press kit blurb<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8211; 9+ Playable characters and Bosses<br \/>&#8211; 40+ Unique evolving enemies<br \/>&#8211; Deckbuilding with 200+ spells<br \/>&#8211; 100+ strategy changing items<br \/>&#8211; Procedurally generated worlds and battles<br \/>&#8211; Life or death choices and alternate endings<br \/>&#8211; Local co-op and PvP<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<aside class=\"gallery\">\n<div class=\"col\"><a title=\"Flame Hazel 02\" href=\"http:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/a78e6aae81273\/flame-hazel-02.original.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/static.nintendolife.com\/blank.gif\" data-original=\"http:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/a78e6aae81273\/flame-hazel-02.original.png\" alt=\"Flame Hazel 02\"><\/a><a title=\"Ragnarock Deck\" href=\"http:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/8a36477559b3f\/ragnarock-deck.original.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/static.nintendolife.com\/blank.gif\" data-original=\"http:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/8a36477559b3f\/ragnarock-deck.original.png\" alt=\"Ragnarock Deck\"><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"col\"><a title=\"Rewards Calamity\" href=\"http:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/45921ec6edced\/rewards-calamity.original.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/static.nintendolife.com\/blank.gif\" data-original=\"http:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/45921ec6edced\/rewards-calamity.original.png\" alt=\"Rewards Calamity\"><\/a><a title=\"Selicy Frost 01\" href=\"http:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/724e99df01f22\/selicy-frost-01.original.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/static.nintendolife.com\/blank.gif\" data-original=\"http:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/724e99df01f22\/selicy-frost-01.original.png\" alt=\"Selicy Frost 01\"><\/a><\/div>\n<\/aside>\n<p>With local co-op and a lovely pixel art look, Switch would seem to be an ideal platform (although it&#8217;s also coming to Steam). For anyone pining for Mega Man Battle Network, this looks like a fun modern take on the concept with its own twist, and could be worth checking out more closely when it launches at the end of March.<\/p>\n<p><em>Ah, if only it was also an open-world, f2p Battle Royale as well, eh?
