Hello Atari Maniacs, we just released a Patch for Atari Mania addressing a number of gameplay issues and player requests. Most importantly, this update implements analog controls for all microgames, which should make for a much more precise and satisfying play experience. Our original decision to make our controls digital worked well for certain microgames, but overall made for less precise controls that caused some frustration for players - especially with games that initially had analog controls, like Pong. Were happy with the result of the control change, and hope you are too!
Silky Smooth Weve also made a number of gameplay modifications based on player feedback, improved performance and framerate, and updated the descriptions of a number of microgames to make their objectives clearer. Lastly, we are adding Steam Trading Cards! There are 6 in total to collect, along with badges, emoticons, and profile backgrounds!
