Humour is this game's trump card...which is lucky, seeing as there's not much else to it, bar some simple puzzles, and some hilariously rudimentary graphics.

Made in just a 70 hour period, subAtomic isn't one of those immensely polished, epic length adventures that will keep you playing for hours. What it is, however, is cute, quirky and funny, and I found myself smiling and enjoying it the whole way through. Give it a try and you may find yourself…
We'd love to hear what you think about the game!

graphics = funny!
script = funny!
overall = FUNNY!!
funny written 3 times = weird looking or is that just me?
Anyway, talented writers ,should do more please.
proof that simple graphics can be just as good as anything.
Not that bad considering it was made within a very short time. However, besides clicking through some moderately funny dialogs, there isn't really much to do.
Finally got round to playing this - firey nuclear death is fun!
I think I just played something. It was funny!
Not very deep or crafty, but for something made in a couple days, it was pretty decent, and it got quite a few laughs out.
Very Short game. Good music. Nice pixels. Cute kid. Good humour, Mostly. Not that much Decision Making. Sound Effects (check!). Recommend to others? Yes!
