Dev Blog #54 - New Patch 0.5.0, High Rise City Living!

Hello all! We have another patch for you and it's bursting with cool stuff.

The High Life

It's time to get stylish with our Urban Apartment private space. Situated on the 30th floor of highly fashionable Atom Tower, this chic little pad is a great place to hang out. Best of all, this space is free for everyone. So invite your friends and take in the view!

Escape the Crowds

As some of you have already found, we have slipped in a new space out the back of the Arcade Plaza. It's your new and improved VIP area and we hope you like it. Subscribers can step inside for a more exclusive nightclub experience, or wander out onto the balcony to peer down onto your friends as they dance and chat. It's much bigger than the old space and boasts golden flooring. What could be more VIP than that?

Have a Smashing Time

While you are in the Arcade Plaza, don't forget to check out our latest arcade cabinet: Atom Smasher! Subscribers have been dominating the leaderboards, so now its everyone's chance to show them what you are made of. Bounce the ball and smash the bricks... before they smash you!

Flame on!

Are you ready to embrace your inner superhero? In Atom Universe you can! Navigate to the 'Characters' tab in the Avatar menu and you will find metal and fire characters that completely replace your avatar. Or the Adams out there can become a mythical creature with Engine Giant's Fire Master Phoenix. Did someone say costume partaaaaay?

New Threads

There's a few new flag t-shirts available. Right now you can grab t-shirts for US, UK, France, Germany and Canada with more to come in future releases. Pick your favourite flag!

We hope you enjoy exploring the new features!
