Atomic Runner

Atomic Runner Chelnov is an arcade side-scrolling shooter platform video game developed and published by Data East in 1988. In the game, the player takes the role of Chelnov, a coal miner who miraculously survives the malfunction and explosion of a nuclear power plant. Chelnov's body gains superhuman abilities due to the massive amount of radiation given off by the explosion, and a secret organization seeks to harness those abilities for its own evil purposes. Chelnov must battle and defeat the secret organization using his newfound abilities. It was ported with a different theme to the Sega Genesis in 1992 by Data East and faithfully to the X68000 in 1993 by Dempa.
