Howdy farmers!

Since the launch of Atomicrops last week the team has been hard at work fixing issues and improving balance. This update contains a few lovely changes, see the list below.

We also want to take this opportunity to thank all of you for purchasing Atomicrops here on Steam. We can't wait to share more news about the future of the game.



New Content
-Added a new secret achievement
-Steam Achievements now unlock if achievements were unlocked on another PC platform before using the Steam version. Existing achievements will unlock retroactively.

Balance
-Greatly improved the cat reward for beating year 8, 9, and 10
-Flying skulls that fly vertically spawn 20% less
-Upgrades that slow enemy bullet speed cause skulls to spawn less frequently which prevents them from bunching up
-Enemy bullets and skulls are 25% slower when moving vertically to help prevent unfair damage when player is moving up or down
-Reduced crop collider sizes by 50% and fit them better to the crops.

Fixes
-Fixed an issue which would cause player to frequently get stuck on corners when moving diagonally - moving through crops should be more smooth now

Please note that a restart of Steam may be necessary to launch the new update, due to folder structure changes.

For the unitiated, ATOMICROPS is a bullet-hell/roguelite where you cultivate and defend the last farm in a post-apocalyptic wasteland. Armed with a hoe, watering pail, and fully automatic weapon, you’ll grow ultra-GMO crops to feed your town and make a hefty profit, guard your land against mutant pests and bandits, and court and wed townsfolk to fight and farm by your side.
