About Underhero
Underhero is a 2D side-scrolling RPG adventure with timing-based combat: you evade attacks with reflexes, then use precise timing to attack and parry. Its mysterious story follows an underling of the main villain who takes the place of a failed chosen hero.
The Chestnut Kingdom
You journey across the Chestnut Kingdom with Elizabeth IV and the little Masked Kid to defeat your evil boss, Mr. Stitches. Along the way, you meet friends, foes and other strange characters. The story has twists and turns, and the world contains hidden secrets.
Timing-based combat
Combat has no turns. You rely on reflexes to evade and timing to attack or parry, and can strike in rhythm with the music to land critical hits. Enemies consider you their ally, so you can talk to them during battles for tips, jokes and lore. The game also features boss battles.
Art and soundtrack
Underhero is presented in pixel art with a cartoony aesthetic. Its original soundtrack is composed by Stijn van Wakeren, and its dialogue uses quirky humor and silly, personality-filled characters.
