Greetings, guys!

As some of you might have noticed, we're taking a bit of a break from the ATOM series by dipping our toes into our next favorite cRPG genre: low-magic fantasy with Swordhaven: Iron Conspiracy.

While not related to ATOM (at least on the surface... wink-wink) Swordhaven is as near and dear to our hearts as any of our previous games. We really hope it establishes us as more than a one-note developer and helps us get on a new technical level with all of our upcoming projects.
There are plenty of improvements in Swordhaven that are already spotted by the players of the free demo we put out: better dialogue, improved combat mechanics, a richer skill system, graphics-related innovations and more. This is why we are sure that if you enjoyed ATOM and Trudograd you might just find your next cRPG fix in Swordhaven before we begin ATOM 2 in the future.

We're currently running a Kickstarter campaign for Swordhaven, so please feel free to check it out, at least for the comprehensive explanation of what it's all about and a free playable demo on the campaign page.

Yours always, Atom Team

Greetings, friends!

First things first, we are very much humbled and surprised by your support in nominating ATOM RPG for the "Labor of Love" Steam Award.

Hello!

We have decided to update the ModKit for ATOM RPG and add a feature that allows you to use parts of the map from the original locations in your mod. Additionally, we would like to tell you about the PIE (PlayInEditor) feature, which enables you to run your mod directly in Unity using game files. Sounds cool, doesn't it?

To do this, you just need to configure the path to the game resources. You can find all the game scenes in the set and choose one of them to launch using the Play button. [Tutorial HERE]



With the latest ModKit update (no game update required), you can also create an object in the scene that will reference a part of the scene from the original location. To do this, load the scene from ATOM, select the root object you need, and then click Game > Create ScenePrefab. This will create an object that you can easily move (copy and paste) to your own scene.


Play Test:



If you have any questions or encounter difficulties, you can leave comments on this news post or contact us directly at support@atomrpg.com

Greetings, friends!

As many of you already know, we love bringing temporary optional events into our game on special occasions, both to spice up the game you already know through and through as well as to have an excuse to give you some brand new toys to play with :)

This time the special event we wish to commemorate with a free update is the end of this pretty arduous Winter.

The new content that will be made available for it is going to be a rather large map in the Dead City, where you will get to do a lot of exploring, fighting and surviving for a chance to acquire several new weapons, meet new friends and enemies, as well as uncover a pre-war military installation.

To get to the event map you will have to travel to Dead City and find a new marker between the store and the playground.


As always, if temporary events arent your thing, this one can be turned off in the menu. It will disappear from the game in 30 days on its own as well.

This update also brings some minor fixes to the game, as well as new optimization for low-end PCs.

We would also like to use this occasion to remind our German-speaking players that the community translation for the game, led by a group of our fans is almost finished. You can check on their amazing progress and wish them the best of luck in the forum!

Have a great Spring, friends. And as always, let there be ATOM!









Changelog:

• Added two new weapons;
  
• Added a new special event;
  
• Fixed game freezing when enemy loses a weapon;

Hello, friends!

Winter holidays are approaching and with them the end of this rather tough year.

2020 interfered with a lot of us, made us change a lot of plans and daily routines. This is why we in the team are extra happy we got to spend these hard times side by side with you, our players.

We are extra thankful to you and after getting some feedback we're re-releasing a special Christmas event for the game, which will last all of the holidays. In it you will get to slaughter hordes of abominable flesh-crazed mutant snowmen who occupied a small region in the Mountain Pass of Woes for a chance to get a few extra items.

Hey, guys!

Some of you missed it last time But this year it came back with a vengeance from the beyond. Our spooky Halloween event is out for blood yet again! And this time no platform, mobile or otherwise will be spared from waves of grotesque horrors.

Will you risk having thy flesh consumed by the fangs of the unruly evil with perfect hatred and no remorse? Those who survive will surely be rewarded. You'll just have to find a special random encounter on the global map if you dare.

If you do not dare, or find such festive events silly, which is totally understandable, the optional content can be easily turned off in the main menu.

Apart from the optional content, this version also contains some delightfully devilish new features that will make slow machines run the game better.

There is also some amazing news from our Italian translation team which launched the final stage of the translation mod.

See it here: https://steamcommunity.com/app/552620/discussions/1/1644304412661712169/

Now tremble, before the full infernal glory of this updates horrific changelog:

- Added the spooky Halloween event (till November 3rd);
- Improved loading times on video cards with capacity of 2 gb+;
- Fixed minor issues reported to us on Steam and other forums;
- Fixed minor sound glitches.

Fangs for reading, and let there be ATOM!

Greetings, friends!

It's time for another update. We want to thank everyone of you who helped us find new typos and minor mistakes in the game. Without you, some of these would've been lost to us forever!
We also have some very important news for our Polish friends. We found an editor who is helping us fix the beta translation. There is still a lot for him to correct, but the project is finally moving ahead! If anyone wants to chat with him or volunteer to help out or test, he invites you to join his facebook at https://www.facebook.com/Radionieaktywni
Also, to our Japanese players. A very early Japanese beta done by our player volunteer pe_yang_star (https://twitter.com/pe_yang_star) via the DeepL AI was uploaded into this version of the game. There is still tons of editing before we're done, so in case anyone wants to help us out, you're welcome to contact pe_yang_star or us !
