Atomik: RunGunJumpGun, a 2D action platformer, originally appeared on Switch in 2018 as an eShop download. You can find more information below.
With a gravity-defying, cringe-inducing weapon, a crazy cast of characters, simple yet beautifully challenging gameplay, and a throbbing musical score, Atomik: RunGunJumpGun is a loud, mind-blowing mess of platforming goodness. nervous. .
The game takes place in the Extax system, a solar system where the Sun has begun to swell and gobble up the planets. With most of the planets already devoured, the remaining worlds descended into madness and superstition. Each inhabitant has their own theory as to why the sun seems so angry, but they all depend on one central element: the Atomiks, the main resource of the whole system.
You play as a scavenger, a rogue outside the Extax system who seems to have only one goal: to collect Atomiks. What do Atomiks mean to the scavenger? Do you want to collect valuable resources for yourself or use them as a way to appease the sun and end the suffering of the system? Or maybe they’re just shiny objects in a video game for him.
