The biggest improvement to the game from its initial release is the stability of the online co-op portion. Players seeking to team up with other treasure hunters can now do so by dropping into the online lobby and inviting players to a game. The host player chooses the starting level (which is determined by the host player’s progression from the local side) and the second player joins in. All progression made in the game tracks back to both players’ games, so later stuff could potentially be spoiled, but the lobby allows you to basically call out what level you’re playing or looking to play. Inviting specific Steam friends to a game via the Steam interface currently isn’t supported, though further Steam integration is being looked at for future updates (including a map editor feature).

Thought the game has been out since last June, developer A Jolly Corpse hasn't been idle. Jesse and Beau have been working on tweaking and polishing up parts of the game, including the online co-op play that wasn't quite stable when it arrived last year when Tally reviewed it.
