D.A.T.O is a 2d top down perspective strategy game about collecting resources and trading them for weapons and armor to defend yourself against hordes of orcs that won't stop coming.Do you have what it takes for this fast-paced 2d horde survival?
Get resources
You have 90 seconds before night falls and the orcs appear,get your axe and pick and start working!
Trade for armor
The sellers will give you some armor in exchange of ingots,greedy assholes....
Trade for weapons
The sellers will also give you some ranged weapons they have brought from other lands for some ingots,so greedy..
Kill orcs!
Fearless and brutal these creatures will rush at you without even thinking about it.

New launcher
For the newest version you only have to download a single .exe that is the new launcher,it checks if there is a newer version available,if there is it updates your game for you.
![New Launcher [WIP]](https://media.indiedb.com/cache/images/games/1/44/43493/thumb_620x2000/NewLauncher3.png)
It also has the function of showing patch notes so you know whats new or what got changed.
New main menu
Also changed the main menu,most important changed the buttons from big sprites to actual buttons,this makes it look cleaner and also makes it easier for translating the game to more languages.
Also added support for two more resolutions,making it a total of four supported resolutions:
- 1600x900 (16:9)
- 1366x768 (16:9)
- 1280x720 (16:9)
- 1024x576 (16:9)
Added orc bodies
Orcs now leave bodies behind when they die instead of just dissapearing.
These bodies can be decapitated by any weapon just by hitting near the neck.
