I made a downloadable updated version of Small Atomic World War. The update adresses some of the major issues raised in the comments :

• Controls are now much easier since there is no inertia anymore.
• All atoms, yours included, automatically attract particles that are (very) nearby. So you don’t have to roll around too long to collect particles. The “quantum gravitation” update increases the attraction range (a lot).
• Autofire is now always active so you don’t destroy your hand during a game. The “gamma stream” update now increases the rate of fire (a lot).
• All the bonuses (except “transmutation” which is really powerful) are now much cheaper to buy.
• All the objects (atoms and particles) now stick to the ground, so there is no problem of perspective anymore.
• You can now shoot any atom, even if you’re a big one harassed by a small one. (which happens quite often).
• I added some sort of health bar in order to see more clearly when your shots touch an enemy atom and vice-versa.

Overall I feel like (but I’d really like to have your opinion on this point) this update enhances the game experience a lot and balances the difficulty. It’s now much easier to win the game. Maybe is it even too easy ?

P.S.: If you have not tried the original version check out the game's page and/or play directly on itch.io.

P.P.S. : I had no time to make a new gif so the one above represents the old version and is just here as an illustration.
