  • Undertale Yellow is a wonderful experience, and I figured I'd compliment it with a video essay diving into why its a fangame that compares to the original.

    The best part of Undertale Yellow is that this fan game wasn´t just a love letter to Undertale, but it's also a love letter to Desmond/Etika, who many know sadly took his own life years ago, and was also a big fan of Undertale, I may not have watched his streams, but if he was still here now, he would have loved this game.

    I absolutely loved Undertale Yellow, the best game I played in a long time. It stayed strong and true to Undertale's narrative, but didn't shy away from making it's own concepts. The characters were great and just like you said, you weren't wishing for a character cameo. Truly the fangame of all time...

    To me, I don’t really like them, monster, designs, and undertale yellow the original monster designs were Grody and most of the time kind of ugly. They’re not the well-rounded cute designs of undertail yellow Most of the time, undertail, yellow character designs, just makes them look like Furrys which is kind of a turn off for me in kind of pulled me out of the game as a whole for me. It doesn’t really come close to the original It just feels like it’s trying too hard to match the original original, and in doing that it loses the charm of it ironically the best part of the game is the flowey They really make him work in this game but that’s about all the praise. I can give it.
