Patch Notes v0.1_22 - This update is HUGE! ๐Ÿ˜ฎ


This update is a HUGE one for us on Itch.io! It brings all changes that came from the Steam Next Fest demo version of the game over to Itch!

Features

New Map Area!

A train station where loading and unloading happened before the Harvest Festival has appeared in The Zone! It's a verticality heaven with lots of jumping points and ways to escape from the enemies!

Two New Enemies!

Bomb Launcher

This monster is not very movable, but he'll launch grenades at you from a huge distance so be careful! And if you dare get close you're in for a surprise ๐Ÿ˜ˆ

Flying Bomber

Those monsters launch 3 bombs at you at the same time, but those are sticky ones! So be careful where you walk!

I hope the next update fixes the boot-to-lobby glitch. Forget surviving, you'll never stay in the game for 10 minutes.

This issue is a solved one, we haven't had people be booted to the lobby for quite a while now. If you're still experiencing the Boot-to-lobby issue let us know.

Sorry, my mistake. I thought I had the latest version, but I actually just had an older version. I would really appreciate if you started putting the version in the file name, It's currently hard to tell what version is which, and I've downloaded three files named atomic-picnic-win.zip that are a little hard to tell if one is a fresh download like I think it is or if it is a duplicate of the old version.

Really fun, when I got the new version the issue was fixed. I saw potential in the old version when I first downloaded it, though It wasn't very fun with that glitch. Love the new GUI, hope this continues to develop, great game with even more potential.

Neat game, but it crashes every ten seconds. I still have high hopes

Highest regards, and higher hopes, I respect the developers greatly, and look forward to when the error is solved.

Hey Gondolinian, we fixed a ton of issues and some crashes on this latest update. Can you tell me what are your PC Specs? The game shouldn't be crashing unless your setup doesn't fit our specs.
