ATOM, the acclaimed oldschool RPG from AtomTeam has received yet another major update. The newly released 1.109 update adds a new experimental isometric camera, soundscape optimization, left-handed person accessibility, and Dualshock 4 support for the game, as well as squashing a number of bugs.
According to the developers, this new isometric camera is a feature being developed for the upcoming Trudograd standalone expansion but all those who own ATOM RPG will get a taste of it as well.
