I just ran away from Undyne and then fought a ghost living in a dummy

idk is this fun? It's really simple. I appreciate the "weirdness" of it all, though, and maybe that's all it's got going for it

It definitely does gain momentum after Mad Dummy. The best music, battles and (especially) story beats/dialogue are still ahead of you. I recommend sticking with it.

The music was thud-like.

The game isn't very long, so I'd recommend to keep going. And keep us updated on your thoughts on the game.

We should strive to create a world of love and compassion. It may take a lot of time and effort, but it can be done.

If the dog music and petting the dog fight didn't sell you on it, it's not the game for you.
Nah, that's not really the most compelling aspect of the game.

I've kind of been getting this vibe

I have a vague sense of where this is going

Not sure what you mean. It's your choice how you want to approach battles, but you do get currency by not running from fights and they have fun flavor text and bullet dodging challenges.

Play the game in whatever way feels "right" to you.

Also, if you're struggling at all feel free to load up on healing items.

It's a quirky meme/indie game, and its main strength is its humorous tone. Though it's unique for a turn-based RPG, combat isn't exactly revolutionary (it's basically just an inferior version of top-down shoot 'em up games, platformers, etc. depending on the battle).

The story is decent and the ending is cool, but it's not as good as its fans would have you think.

ok I finished it and I'm torn. Amazing, surprisingly deep, it's got all of the depth and self awareness I want all games to have. On the other hand, the gameplay wasn't fun to me. But I went down the youtube hole and watched all the endings, they really put a lot of thought into it.

I appreciated it, I can see how it would have a cult following. If they'd just make the gameplay a LITTLE better... more streamlined, more lived in world, any one thing... it would be an instant classic

I'll still give Deltarune a go

Never trust a flower, that's one of the constants of this world

Yeah, the gameplay isn't one of Undertale's strong points. Its generally pretty fun and well designed, but the game feel is lacking.
