Race against the clock in bite-sized JRPG adventures where you've got 30 seconds to save the world by questing, fighting, and leveling up before resetting the timer for another run. With over 100 mini-campaigns, four-player multiplayer, custom map creation, and a soundtrack worth unlocking, this speedrunning homage packs more charm and replayability into half a minute than most games manage in hours.

The world's speediest homage/roast to JRPGs! Can you save the world in 30 seconds?

Get a quest, find those in need, fight through dungeons, earn cash, get cool loot and level up until YOU>EVIL. Don't have enough time? Pay the Goddess to reset the clock and try again! Over 100 mini-JRPGs for you to test your might with! Available outside Japan for the first time ever exclusively on Steam.

Instead of padding out the adventure, it packs fun into every second.

Sadly, half minute hero is what the ladies also call me. But, what they don't know is that I always have a second coming.

Love the concept - you have just 30 seconds to save the world. It's a very fast-paced RPG that turns time pressure into an incredibly fun gameplay mechanic. No other game quite like it. If you want something unique and frantic, this is it.

Simple gameplay with a satisfying level progression. 30 sec is all you have > Farm as much gold as possible > Use gold to reset timer or buy equipment > Defeat final boss before timer runs out.

This game is super fun, its less of an RPG and more of a puzzle solving game. You have to do everything at the right time and plan your actions out super well. Dialogue is pretty good - but if you dont like it it will be grating and irritating. Theres a huge focus on story this time around... Not sure if thats a good or bad thing (depends on u, of course). Reccomend on sale.

This game has so much. I started playing again after years of not playing and there is so much more to it that I just keep playing and playing.
