In-game event21 Nov 2023New languages!Hey everyone! Thanks to some amazing community volunteers, we've been able to add new languages to atrio! Atrio's story, translated in german Status update of languages: Here is the overall status of all languages. The bulk of the localization is in the story, which requires the most skill and effort (and google translations are particularly terrible for story translations), so we opted to leav…
Adding the ability to view cumulative splits vs individual splits. Note There is a very minor bug with the Speedrun toggle (we really wanted to get this out for the speedrun competition.) If you run into issues trying to toggle between the two split modes: · After you left click the "toggle key", · Right click anywhere on the screen and your desired setting will stay.
Hey Everyone, If you've been following us on this journey, you'll know we made some promises to greatly improve the game. We're very excited to announce that this patch completes all of the promises we made (plus more) Original Promise -> First update -> Second Update -> The Speedrun Update There's lots more to come, but for now, we'd like to celebrate this major patch with a speedrun contest!…
Hey everyone, Stephen here. We're happy to release our second "improvement update" to Atrio!

Original Promise -> First update -> Second Update -> Third Update (upcoming) Status report We want to stay accountable for the features we promise to fix…
Hi Everyone, I got Covid. But I'm feeling better now! Fig. 1 - A cartoon representation of how I felt being bedridden with covid We've been quiet for a little longer than I wanted to and I'm here to give everyone an update on what's going on. We had plans to have a new update with some major fixes out last week.... but I got covid. It knocked me down pretty hard (even with me being vaccinated).…

First of all, thank you to everyone who played Atrio. This is our first major game, and seeing the amount of support truly warms our hearts. If you've seen some of our devlogs, you'll know how much we care about Atrio and now that we've survived launch week (without too much disaster), we want to start addressing some of the criticisms we've received. Nearly all of the criticisms were valid and…

After a full year and a half of observing how all of you have played the game, we've adjusted, tweaked, refined, and polished the game. For the first time, you'll be able to play the entire story mode and…
Hi everyone, We know, we know. We haven't released a patch since last May. Most of the work we've been picking away at has been finishing the later stages of the game because ATRIO LAUNCHES JANUARY 10! That's right. Atrio has an official launch date, and it's coming up quick. Tell your friends, tell your family, and wishlist if you haven't already. But before 1.0, we've decided to release one l…
Hi everyone, Stephen here with another progress update. We are closing in on 1.0 and will be picking a launch date within the next month. As such, our priority has shifted to increasing performance on both pc and Xbox. With our target being Xbox One S (a pretty old console), we have our work cut out for us... but that's great for PC users! If you have a decent graphics card (RTX 2080's anyone?)…
Hi everyone, I'd like to highlight some of the biggest changes we've made in the last year, and give you some updates on what we've been up to this last month. But first, a quick announcement - we won't be releasing a patch this month. We're in the middle of overhauling our battle system, which has ultimately impacted how the first hour of the game is played. We want to make sure the game is in…
Hey everyone, After much experimenting, we have finished prototyping our battle system! Prototyping two ways to capture creatures After studying some of our favorite inspirational games (Sekiro, Death's door, tunic, Elden Ring) and what made their battle systems unique, we started brainstorming how our battle system would work. We knew that we didn't want the player to be aggressive - the premi…

Fixed a bug where the mini-deer wasn't properly working after loading in from a save 3. Fixed a bug where you couldn't place the ore harvester on the quartz patches in Creative Mode -The Isto Team
Hey everyone, Stephen here with a quick progress update We split our time this month between our next major patch (not out yet) and a small quality of life update. There's no real cohesion here, just a mish-mash of bug fixes, and minor updates. That's right folks, if you want to decide what feature put into the game next, now's your chance. We've re-introduced the feature vote. Just log into At…
Patch 0.8 Highlights Hey everyone, Stephen here with a progress update! Starting from Scratch So. We redid the entire beginning of the game... In August, we released in Early Access. Our intention with the early access release was to put it out in "the wild" and see how people liked it.... and we felt the game needed to be changed in a major way. Why? We discovered some fundamental flaws with t…
Hey everyone, Stephen here with a progress update! We are working hard on a new patch for you, including the new pickerpal, updated movement code for the mini deer, a new factory design, and a new mini deer captured building (amongst other smaller fixes). But I'm not here to talk about that, I wanted to share some of our future plans for the game. We are going to be porting to Xbox for 1.0! As…
Along with the redesign in our beta branch, we've added Christmas skins for a limited time only. Come join in the festivities (and die to the dark in joyous fashion) If you missed out latest vlog there's a lot of massive changes coming up, but will be released in a much bigger patch in the new year. These skins are just a small little thank you for everyone who has supported us! You can read ab…
Hey everyone, Stephen here with a new progress update. We've been quiet for a while but for good reason - we completely changed the beginning. Our gameplay loop sucked. Well, it didn't suck, it lacked cohesion… which I guess kind of made it suck. After releasing the game into early access, we watched a TON of playthroughs, chatted with our players, spend some time playing the game ourselves, an…
Hey everyone! Stephen here bringing you the next feature vote! Unlike the previous feature vote , this one was WAAY closer. · First Place: Better combat · Second Place: A New Biome/New Giant · Third Place: Blueprints Let's talk about combat. Combat up until this point has been put aside to focus on the automation and survival. Admittedly, the combat is a big weak spot in the game and feels very…
Explanation video. I highly recommend you watch! This is our first "major" update - the Catrio Update. This was a combined patch with our September bug fixes. What is Catrio Mode? Catrio mode is really our first pass in adding a custom skin swapping system. Once you enter "Catrio" mode, everything gets re-skinned to a cat theme. FAQ Q: "Does it change gameplay in any way?" A: No. Q: "Was it wor…
