AToM - 1974 - v1.1 - Clay's Clues

The first major update for AToM is now live by means of v1.1 aka Clay's Clues. This update will be auto-applied the next time you restart your Steam client; your existing save-game should be unaffected.

The whiteboard view aims to supplement your Morse code journey:

Pressing TAB whilst in the main menu will show the whiteboard view which includes:

(1) Some common Morse code phrases to kick-start your learning experience

(2) 36 x dynamic clues which appear as you generate them during play

(3) Some hints regarding how to interpret these clues

Pressing BACKSPACE will return you to the main menu view.

You can read about my thinking behind recent changes and other ideas still on the slate.

The Next TMWFA Game (WIP)

I've also released another [related] game called Moonlite - 1975 via Steam (PC) Early Access. If you're keen, you may eventually dig up a Morse code receiver by following various clues hidden beneath the lunar surface:
