May 29, 2020There are tons of games out there that play fine, but Atomicrops offers little to make it a memorable, worthwhile experience amidst so much stiff competition on the Switch. I’m guessing that with another year and a few content updates, Atomicrops will be a fantastic little actioner, but in its current state it comes across like an Early Access release that’s hit the eShop too soon.

Jun 9, 2020Now I understand why people like these sorts of games. Atomicrops looks hard, but it doesn’t feel punishing as you’re playing it. It’s hard in a way that’s approachable, and I’ve come to understand each repetition — dying and starting over — is a part of the process. I could hardly think about what I was doing during my earliest runs, I was so overwhelmed. I just shot at things and ran around. But now, I can approach Atomicrops with a plan, knowing just how long I need to clear an area and when to rush back to protect my plants. I’ve learned how to dodge and shoot and water my plants by doing it all at the same time, over and over. Heck, I like the chaos of bullet-hell games now. Or at least the ones where you can make it back to town with a good harvest, and flirt with some strangers before going into battle.
