Community Spotlight - November 2018
Once more we've rifled through the vast repository of maps and campaigns held within the Steam Workshop picking out the best, most interesting and fun maps to play on. As always we've discovered an incredible number of excellent maps and added more to our backlog of maps we'd like to include here in the future, so rest assured if your favourite map is not here it could well appear in the coming months! We've done our best to pick out a variety of content to best represent the different ways that you experience the game. Now behold our recommendations below!
Naturally, you can download all of these maps as part of our workshop collection right here, or you can subscribe to them individually below! For our friends on GOG we expect the non-steam version to be uploaded to our foundry next week. Keep your eyes on the GOG forums for that! Deathmatch Levels Greed - Die Gier (4 Player) by Ph4nTom HP004 - Too Close (4 Player) by HPoltergeist Fly Away Home (4 Player) by Addoom King of the Underhill Valley of Blood by Ph4nToM Core Shards Charred Web by Kasrkin84 My Pet Dungeon Shifting Gears by Slydra Wolf Scenario Maps Icey Peak by Shocky Custom Campaign True Mystical Journey by Green.Sliche Featured Creator Green.Sliche Congratulations to all of the creators who have been highlighted today! We will be reaching out to you to deliver your Golden Worker codes early next week. Usually via the private forum attached to your highlighted work. If you do not receive your code then please contact us directly and well be sure to sort you out!
Were always super excited to receive fan art of War for the Overworld. As creators and artists ourselves it is deeply heartwarming to see love shown by other talented artists for our work and to see the unique touch they bring to our beloved game. Were only a small team with a pretty niche game so its always a great honour for us to see such love shown! When we see such work, we can't help but share it so when we discover a new fanart and gain permission from the author we like to share it with you here. This month is no different!
These cultists are enjoying their newly purchased modern hoodie robes This awesome and amusing work was discovered in the Artwork section of the Steam community. It seems cultists are always well loved by the community and their cookey zealotry rarely goes unnoticed. These particular ones have decided to celebrate with some excellent hoodies, now we want some of these too! Huge thanks to Kodiak for this awesome bit of art. It gave us a good laugh in the office! Were always looking for more Fanart to showcase so if youre aware of any that could make the cut then please drop us a line or drop it into our Discord with the Artists details. We award artists with the same Golden Worker skin we offer for level creators so if youve got a talent for art and you want to get an exclusive worker skin be sure to drop your art in! Thats all we have for you today Underlords, but rest assured theres plenty more to come in next months spotlight. Remember if you have levels, art, stories or anything youd like to share then get in touch via our Discord, Twitter or Directly to us via any other means! For map creators, you can drop your levels into our Steam Thread for consideration and potential inclusion in future spotlights. Well see you again soon Underlords!

Tired of invading dungeons? It's time you build your own!
Do you feel you are in a slump? Monotonously disembowelling evil guys in endless quests for gold and a slightly better pair of boots? You are starting to wonder... are heroics really your calling? Welcome to the War for the Overworld!
War for the Overworld is a Dungeon Management Game that employs your favourite aspects of the RTS and God Game genres. You play an all-powerful, malevolent Underlord, long banished to the Aether. With unrivalled dark power and an insatiable desire for bloody conquest, you will arise once more, and reclaim your realm!
In your absence, the Underworld lost its way. It became feeble and afraid of the Empire of the Overworld, which grew strong and boldly comfortable in its quiet retirement from evil-slaying. Carve out your dungeon from the soil and stones of the Underworld, and build dozens of unique rooms to attract a myriad of creatures to your halls to work and fight for you.
In addition to your faithful followers, you have destructive spells and powerful rituals to cast upon any unsuspecting goodly Hero (or rival Underlord) who dares to breach your unhallowed halls. With your unmatched dark powers and mighty army of bloodthirsty minions, you are ready for your War for the Overworld!
