About the Game
Atomic Exile is a top down post-apocalyptic extraction shooter set in the desert wastelands of near future America. You will visit enclaves, explore devastated ruins and encounter NPCs such as other survivors, raiders, mutated beasts and rogue machines. Each run is a new experience with procedural generation ensuring that exploring the same area twice is never the same.
Equipment
You will start with the bare essentials. Scavenge clothing and food from the wasteland. Return to town and trade for supplies. Find valuable items to turn into cold cash. Stock up on medicine food, water and bullets. If you want to drive don’t forget fuel and tools.
Driving
The ruins are full of abandoned vehicles. With a little ingenuity some of these cars may be made to run again. Bring along fuel and tools and try your luck with repairs. Be warned a running engine is noisy and may attract trouble. Don’t forget to search the trunk. The previous owner may have left something useful behind.
Weapons
Find weapons to modify. Add enhanced sights, improve handling with better grips, swap out magazines and more. Craft the weapon that’s right for each situation.
Stealth
The denizens of the wasteland are on alert for wayward travellers. Keep out of sight and keep quiet unless you want to be diner. To much noise will bring unwanted attention. Even turning a door handle can alert nearby enemies.
Health
The wasteland is a dangerous place. Look after your health with medical supplies, food and water. Rest when you need to, run if you have to and drive when you can.
