UnderTale - A nod to retro RPGs (Kickstarter+Demo)


Game Type : Retro style RPG
Developer/Project By : Toby Fox
Kickstarter Goal : $5,000 ( Reached a success of $16,519 and rising! )
Game Info Quote : Undertale is a Role-playing Game for Mac/Windows and Although Undertale is an original game, the demo has already received many favorable comparisons to the Mother (Earthbound) series, specifically Mother 3. Others have compared it to Cave Story, the Shin Megami Tensei series, Touhou, and Homestuck.
Release : August 2014
Systems : MAC, PC



Features :
- Fighting is wholly unnecessary: negotiate your way out of danger using the unique battle system.  
- Time your attacks for extra damage, then dodge enemy attacks in a style reminiscent of top-down shooters. 
- Use the format of a video game to tell the story: traditional fourth-wall breaking tropes such as "SAVING," "EXP," and "LV" are an intergrated part of the game's world.
- Obligatory puzzles. Lots and lots of obligatory puzzles. 
- Original art and soundtrack brimming with personality.
- Captivating story with an emphasis on humor.
 
Planned features:
- Become friends with all of the bosses!
- Hilariously bad dating sim segments!
- Seriously, you can literally have a robot husband.
