Greetings, friends! As promised, today we present to you the fifth major content update for ATOM RPG: Trudograd. In accordance with the previously published roadmap, v.0.9 gives you the ability to finish the main storyline and thus fully complete the game. Since save files will only be wiped when version 1.0 is released in autumn, you can complete your current playthrough now and see what the finale holds, without the need to start a new game.
Nevertheless, we really want to draw your attention to the fact that v.0.9 is far from the end of development, its still Early Access. By the time of the official release planned for autumn, the entire game, including the main storyline, will receive new editorial changes, sounds, 2D design elements, improvements to combat balance and much more. Not to mention the side content that will also be added to the rest of the game before the final release. You can play and finish the game right now for curiositys sake and to see the ending, but to those of you who would like to avoid end-game spoilers and wish to enjoy the finalized, carefully crafted release version of the game, we recommend you wait for version 1.0 instead and take a bit of rest from Trudograd for the time being. Now, some more details about the current update v.0.9: The completion of the main storyline entailed the appearance of new characters, quests, text adventures and locations, such as: Trudograd Dam, the Seventh Heaven district, the Razdor village. And, of course, we have not forgotten the existing locations, adding new quests and characters to them as well.
