Holy guacamole, y'all! 😱 When I heard OFF – that legendary cult RPG Toby Fox credits for inspiring Undertale – is finally getting a Steam remaster after 17 years? My soul practically did a happy dance. Seriously, this game’s DNA is woven into every pixel of Undertale’s charm, from those quirky skeleton bros to the surreal battles. And guess what? Toby himself is composing new tracks for it! Talk about full-circle magic ✨

Playing OFF feels like wandering through a haunted dollhouse designed by a poet. You’re this Batter dude in a monochrome world called The Zones, swinging a baseball bat at... well, everything. Ghosts? Check. Talking cats? Absolutely. The atmosphere? Thicker than my grandma’s stew 🥘. It’s got that same eerie-but-playful vibe Undertale masters – unsettling yet weirdly cozy. That moment when a spectral choir surrounds you? Chills, babes. Actual chills.

And the Undertale connections? Chef’s kiss! Toby straight-up said Papyrus’s goofy grin was inspired by OFF’s first boss Dedan. Sans? A mashup of Zacharie (OFF’s masked merchant) and The Judge. Even Napstablook’s melancholy jazz battle traces back here! Playing OFF now feels like decoding Undertale’s secret diary – you’ll gasp at familiar silhouettes in the fog.

But here’s the kicker: Toby composing new music for OFF’s remaster? It’s like watching your fave band cover their own influences. Will it hit like his Pokémon bangers? Who knows! But that raw, jazz-infused soul he poured into Undertale? You can taste its roots in OFF’s claustrophobic hallways. It’s not just a remaster – it’s a reunion 🎷.
So mark August 15 in blood-red ink, folks. Whether you’re a diehard Undertale stan or just crave something beautifully bizarre... OFF’s waiting. And honestly? After all these years, it still feels like it’s winking at us from the shadows.
