It is the 15TH ANNIVERSARY of Atom Zombie Smasher!
To celebrate this anniversary, we launched a merchandise store for our Blendo Games titles (Atom Zombie Smasher, Gravity Bone, Flotilla, Thirty Flights of Loving, Quadrilateral Cowboy).
Wear a cool shirt! Slap a sticker onto your laptop! It was a lot of fun designing these designs. We hope you like it.

But that's not all! We also made a brand new game update to celebrate the occasion, with various additions, quality-of-life improvements, and fixes.
Atom Zombie Smasher 15th Anniversary changes:
Timescale can now be 1%
The slowest timescale used to be 10%. This update now adds a new, even slower timescale: 1%. This is a quality-of-life addition that grants you more time to think and decide.
Can now more easily deselect unit
Pressing ESC willl now deselect the active unit. Sometimes you just want to view the cityscape without having a unit selected -- this makes it easier to do that.
(Note: if you don't have a unit selected, pressing ESC will open the pause menu. This is the same behavior as prior to this update)
Vignette fixes
The seams in the comic vignette images are now fixed. This issue was caused by images ""bleeding"" in their neighboring pixels, which created what looked like a seam or gap.
Behind the Scenes UI
The Behind the Scenes screen now correctly limits how far it scrolls, to prevent you from scrolling into outer space and beyond.
Social buttons
There were some buttons linking to social media that was no longer updated. These were changed to newer, updated links.
Showfloor demoing fix
In the past, Atom Zombie Smasher was shown at various expos and conferences and conventions. During these showings, it was helpful to have a button that instantly reset the entire game. Somehow this showfloor functionality snuck into the release version (oops). This issue has been fixed.
Crashes will now ask to submit a form
If the game crashes, it now generates crash information and submits it into a form. This makes it a lot easier for us to receive information about any technical issues.
Mac startup issue
There were some outdated files in the Mac build that prevented startup. This is now resolved.
Big huge thanks to Ethan Lee for technical help on getting this update out the door.
And additional thanks to folks on our Blendo Games Discord for helping verify some fixes!
