It's ten bucks on Steam and is definitely worth it. If you haven't heard of it, it's basically a JRPG-cum-bullet hell where you have to actively dodge enemy attacks. It's really creative and the music is great. I can post more about it later when I'm not on a phone but it's worth getting for sure.

I loved it just by playing the demo last year. I must play the full version as well soon. And I'll agree: it really worth its money. If only other Earthbound-"inspirited" indie games (more like Earthbound wanabee) had the originality and charm of Undertale...

A whole lot of the game's sound assets are lifted directly from Earthbound or Mario Paint, which I appreciate because they are used well.

Woah. I have never heard of this before now, but it looks like it was tailor made for me. I need this.

I beat the game the day it came out. I had been waiting with bated breath ever since the demo. I kickstarted it. It was damn well worth the wait. Really, really, fantastic game. I want to date all of the characters. 1 date down, more to go. If you could. I got the true goodboy end. I can't imagine going through and getting the bad end. I literally don't think my heart could take it.

How long did it take you to beat it? (hours-of-gameplay-wise)

Actually came as a surprise to me to see it pop up on Steam. Didn't know it got funded. Enjoyed the demo enough but I wasn't so sure he was going to be able to take the concept much farther but honestly I remember the writing being really charming and amusing and I think that may be enough for me to fork over 10 bucks. I really love the music, especially the battle theme.

Well Steam says I played it for about 8 hours. That sounds right to me.

I'm like an hour and a half in. This is so good. The writing is great, lots of objects have dialogue, the characters are charming, and the music is really neat. My only concern is that it took me a little while to figure out the "right" way to do each battle, and now I feel like I should just start over while I'm fairly early on. I'm afraid I've already messed things up.

If it doesn't rend your heart to shreds to get the badboy end just go ahead and do a kill run. Since I did pacifist first I could never go back and kill all my friends though.

If you're uncertain if you've killed anyone on a pacifist run, check your stats screen. Your XP should read 0, since you only gain XP by killing monsters.

True! Also your health shouldn't be above 20, which makes a pacifist run a huge pain the ass. :p
