An Undertale toolbox
Created on the basis of the popular retro RPG Undertale, Unitale opens up new possibilities for the game's fans. Playing off the basic battle mechanics, it allows players to import their battles and explore the world in a new way.
The freedom to create
Just like the original, this game features simple graphics. The real charm of Unitale lies in the strong base characters and well-made mechanics. It is a playground for any fan of the original game.
To understand the story, you need to know a bit about Undertale. What starts as a classic return home' story turns into so much more after a few hours of gameplay. The beauty of it lies in the choices you make, and the story unfolds with each of them.
This game focuses on the battling aspect of Undertale. A lot of finesse hides behind the simple movement of a heart animation in a little box. Every encounter is unique and detailed, with the rules in the box changing every time. The boss battles are the climax of this approach.
Unitale provides basic sprites and sounds as well as data from the battle system of Undertale. You can make your battles by using everything present in the software. Alternatively, you can import your sounds and play around with programming the fights in Lua, the programming language that the software is written in.
The most popular mods are the improved versions of boss battles you run into throughout the gameplay. Even without scripting knowledge, you can play by using the excellent documentation tools the fanbase created.
Where can you run this program?
You run the mods on Mac, Linux, and Windows by downloading them for free.
Is there a better alternative?
No. The Undertale fanbase has a special relationship and appreciation for the game.
Our take
This game takes some of the best moments in boss narration and playful fighting and lets the player do what they want with it. As such, it's an excellent addition.
Should you download it?
Yes, if you liked the original game and want to create your routes similar to it. You don't need programming knowledge as long as you have patience.
