Underhero
Underhero is a quirky 2D RPG-platformer that flips the hero’s journey on its head. Instead of saving the day as the chosen one, you play as a lowly minion who accidentally becomes the “hero” after the real deal gets wiped out. From there, you’re sent across the Chestnut Kingdom on a mission for your evil boss, Mr. Stitches, battling colorful enemies, uncovering secrets, and questioning what it really means to be a hero.
The combat isn’t your standard turn-based grind—it’s all about timing, rhythm, and reflexes. Think of it like Paper Mario with a darker twist, where every swing, block, and jump depends on your skill, not just your stats. Add in some charming pixel art, sharp humor, and a fantastic soundtrack, and you’ve got one of the most unique indie RPGs out there.
