It’s amazing what one person can accomplish, and Undertale is proof. Toby Fox wrote and designed, developed, composed the music for, and released Undertale solo, his only help from additional artists. And it took the gaming world by storm, largely thanks to its deceptively simple story and combat systems, which worked together to conceal great narrative depth. Undertale turns nearly every RPG trope in existence on its head, while simultaneously feeling good as an RPG — a truly incredible feat.
- Creator Toby Fox planned to release Undertale in 2014, but experienced years of delays.
- Its Kickstarter funding campaign, which took place in 2013, raised over ten times its goal of $5,000 — earning over $51,000.
- Fox, who composed and created all of Undertale's music, is a self-taught musician with no formal training.
