Welcome back to the irradiated stompin\u2019 grounds, y\u2019all!<\/p>\n

Did you think you knew all there was to mutant-crop tendin\u2019? Well, we\u2019re here to tell you city-slickers that there\u2019s a lot more than meets the eye with a new content update to Atomicrops \u2013 Thyme Flie<\/em>s<\/strong>! All the frantic-farming and post-apocalyptic action is getting ready to hit Xbox One with barrels-loaded and fertilizer\u2026 err\u2026 pretty stinky at this point, tbh.<\/p>\n

Heading to town just in time for the harvest season are brand-new weapons, upgrades, and two of the hardest-working farmhands to ever step onto the cracked earth of your irradiated homestead!<\/p>\n

Dandelion<\/strong> just flew in and boy are their arms tired. Well, that\u2019s not quite right as they\u2019ve got themselves wings that they\u2019ve put to good use! Dandelion\u2019s fly ability allows them to bypass bridges to access biomes that would otherwise be inaccessible from day one.<\/p>\n

Just in time (hooboy, we\u2019re never going to get sick of that one!) arrives Thyme<\/strong> and their porky pig-pal. Thyme\u2019s whole schtick is a little different from the norm \u2013 Days drag on longer with them around, giving you more precious, additional time with your crop-babies. A word of caution: as soon as Thyme takes a hit, your day will suddenly shorten right up! Stay out of the blast zone to allow yourself extra breathing-room to grow crops, whoop butts, and explore the area with your pig companion.<\/p>\n

\n
\"Atomicrops<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

Add in a host of new weapons (did we mention the word \u201cFlamethrower\u201d?), a shiny new Tunneler Tractor to help you get back to your garden in a flash, and a smorgasbord of new-fangled upgrades and you got yourself a hoedown! The free Thyme Flies<\/em> patch is live now on Xbox One for everyone to muss about with! For full notes on the additions to Atomicrops<\/em>, visit atomicrops.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Farm. Marry. Kill.<\/p>\n
