What exactly is Atomicrops?

It's the debut of Bath Games studio, a game that combines a farm simulator with elements of roguelike shooters like Helldivers and Nuclear Throne. We play as one of the survivors of a nuclear holocaust; we're developing our genetically modified crops and try to save them (and ourselves) from attacks of mutated insects.

What's gameplay like Atomicrops?

Atomicrops is based on two main pillars. The first is combat with the insects attacking our farm, conceived in the style of twin-stick shooters. Defeated opponents can be converted into fertilizer, which is useful in the second big aspect of the game – developing the farm. By planting and growing unusual plants, we acquire valuable food and materials to trade with other survivors. We can also embark on dangerous expeditions into the wilderness, which may yield new types of seeds or tools that make it easier to work.

He first worked as a co-worker at GRYOnline.pl. In 2023 he became the head of the Paid Products department. He has been creating articles about games for over twenty years. He started with amateur websites, which he coded himself in HTML, then he moved on to increasingly larger portals. A computer engineer, but he was always more drawn to writing than programming, and he decided to tie his future with the former. In games, he primarily looks for stories, emotions, and immersion that no other medium can provide - hence, among his favorite titles, are games focusing on narration. Believes that NieR: Automata is the best game ever made.
