The official website for Moon, is now live, offering new details about this game developed by Renegade Kid. Moon is a sci-fi, action-adventure title for Nintendo DS which places gamers on the cold lunar surface in the year 2058. Researchers are shocked to find a sealed, alien hatch during construction of a new lunar base, but it's a shock that soon pales in comparison to what they find beyond the hatch. Moon promises to deliver high-quality 3D visuals, intuitive controls, real-time lighting, and dynamic audio.
Today, Onion Games announced that the legendary RPG – or rather, the anti-RPG – Moon has been re-released for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC. The game was originally released on PlayStation in 1997. It was resurrected 22 years later on Nintendo Switch and now on other platforms.

As the wait for Deltarune continues, this writer wanted to offer her readers a collection of similar experiences. Considering Undertale’s beginnings as an Earthbound hack, this piece aims to explore some of what could be considered Undertale’s family — games that also began with RPGMaker, were inspired by Earthbound, share a similar ideology, and games focus on reactive stories. Additionally, this piece hopes to highlight some of the lesser known Undertale-esque works, the ones readers might not immediately find when sifting through Google’s suggestions. As an added bonus, these games are budget-friendly - several of them are even free! Others range from $5-20. (Many were included in the BLM bundle on Itch.io, both Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass and Anodyne from this list are included.) There’s something for every Undertale fan in this list, so hopefully you readers will find something new to ease the anticipation for Deltarune!
