This would mark one of the few indie games that got representation in the game, aside from Cuphead and Shovel Knight.Īfter the success of Undertale, Toby then moved on to making another game. Undertale’s popularity is nothing to scoff at, with the game becoming so popular that it’s been ported to consoles, as well as giving Toby the chance to hang out and play against Masahiro Sakurai, with one of the characters, Sans, being included in Super Smash Brothers Ultimate as a Mii costume.
The game is called Undertale, and after a short Kickstarter, it was funded by the same people who had seen Toby grow from working on Rom Hacks & Webcomics. This game changed how players fought enemies, making turn-based RPG titles into action-packed bullet hell, mixed with the ability to spare enemies if enough kindness is shown to them. After these projects honed his skills, he made a game with a spin on the RPG formula. He started out making a hack of the game earthbound and then soon found his way working on the webcomic Homestuck, where around 52 songs can be attributed to him. Toby Fox is a game developer and musician who spent his time inside internet culture for those who aren’t familiar.
