The Atlas Six is a desktop only game. Currently the project is not open-source. I have left the contribution procedure as I plan to make it open-source after public release.
The Atlas Six is a story-driven RPG set in a world of magic, ancient mysteries, and alliances that are not always what they seem. The journey revolves around the choices made by the player and the evolving relationships within the party. At the heart of the game, you'll find the Atlas Six—a group of heroes bound by a common fate, though each of them carries their own burdens.
In a world where secrets lie behind decisions made, one thing is certain: not all allies are as trustworthy as they seem, and the line between friend and foe is often blurred. Will you forge an alliance, uncover the truth, or destroy everything in your path?
- Branching Storylines: Your choices will shape the narrative, leading to different outcomes.
- Dynamic Character Interactions: Develop relationships with members of the Atlas Six and influence the course of the game.
- Combat System: Engage in fast-paced battles with mechanics like quick attack decisions and combos.
- Mini-Games: Combat is not always won on the battlefield. Your mind often finds itself at war with tests, riddles and mini games, changing the course of your story.
- Interactive NPCs: Converse with NPCs to uncover the truth but beware: the truth is not always pretty.
Each member of the Atlas Six has a distinct background, personality, and role to play in the unfolding drama. However, not all is as it seems. Who can you trust when the darkness looms closer?

Welcome to the Known World — a realm of rich cultures, ancient conflicts, and elemental forces that shape the fate of every living being. This is a place where tradition meets arcane power, where alliances are fragile and the past haunts the present.
At the heart of this world lie five great Kingdoms, each with its own strength, history, and vision for the future. As tensions rise and war looms on the horizon, the balance between peace and power teeters dangerously.
| Kingdom | Emblem | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Aurelia |  |
A kingdom of radiant forests and shimmering lakes, Aurelia thrives on harmony and abundance. Ruled by councils of scholars and spiritual leaders, its people live in tune with nature and wield water and nature-based magic. Known for their healing arts and bountiful harvests, Aurelia is often viewed as the peaceful heart of the Known World. Despite their diplomatic nature, they are not naïve — their wisdom is ancient and strategic. Aurelia maintains good relations with Valdora, but remains wary of the growing tensions elsewhere. |
| Eryndor |  |
Forged in stone and flame, Eryndor is a harsh land of towering mountains and fortress cities. Known for its elite knights and earth-shaping warriors, Eryndor respects strength above all. Its people are loyal, disciplined, and often at odds with the more arcane ways of other kingdoms. Governed by a military aristocracy, Eryndor’s rigid sense of honor fuels its age-old rivalry with Kurohana, whom they see as undisciplined and deceptive. Their iron mines and warrior culture make them formidable in any conflict. |
| Valdora |  |
A realm steeped in mystery and ancient knowledge, Valdora is the heart of magical innovation. Its deep woods and hidden libraries are home to sages, hunters, and arcane scholars. The kingdom is ruled by circles of Archmages and ancient traditions, valuing wisdom above power — but they do not shy from using both. Though on peaceful terms with Aurelia, Valdora seeks knowledge relentlessly, even if it means awakening things best left forgotten. Their mix of magic and survivalism makes them unpredictable but respected. |
| Kurohana |  |
A majestic land of volcanic ranges, sacred temples, and cascading cherry blossoms, Kurohana blends grace with ferocity. Guided by ancestral clans and strict honor codes, its people are masters of fire magic, martial arts, and ornate weaponry. Every fabric, blade, and ritual is a symbol of pride. Despite its internal discipline, Kurohana is volatile on the world stage — its hatred for Eryndor runs deep, rooted in cultural conflict and past betrayals. Their artistry in war is matched only by their breathtaking beauty. |
| Hollowind |  |
Among lightning-struck towers and clockwork streets, Hollowind stands apart. Wind and shadow magic swirl through its smoggy skies, while inventors and artificers push the boundaries of fantasy tech. Governed by guilds and thinkers rather than monarchs, Hollowind values innovation, secrecy, and profit. Aloof in global affairs, they rarely take sides — but when they do, their machines can shift the tide of any battle. Their silence is unnerving, and their allegiance is never guaranteed. |
The game is not out yet :).
