OBSIDIAN is a procedural random map generator developed as a community effort.[1] It is a fork of the final version of OBLIGE that has two prominent differences: a new GUI for changing the tool's many settings and fully incorporating the older ObAddon project. The merger of ObAddon provided a large addition of visual assets and Lua code.
The first release of OBSIDIAN was in March of 2021. It currently has two versions: a stable beta and a newer build. The builds for Windows are provided at the GitHub repository, but official Linux builds are not yet provided. The project has clear milestones for an eventual 1.0 release.[2]
