Atomic Hero is a short comedy RPG about saving the world while keeping its greatest hero from doing anything.

A prophecy says the kingdom's greatest hero must stand before the Demon King. Unfortunately, that hero is Atomic.

Atomic is brave, cheerful, and very eager to help. He also can't use his powers without causing an atomic explosion. The last time he tried, an island disappeared from the map. He still isn't sure why everyone keeps bringing it up.

You control Atomic and three ordinary adventurers: Bram the knight, Lyra the mage, and Mira the healer. They're responsible for most of the fighting. Atomic's job is to stay out of trouble.

If he attacks, everyone dies. His enemies, his friends, everyone.

And if a battle goes on for too long, he might just decide it's time to help.
