The plot of Deltarune is similar to Undertale — a genderless protagonist falls into a world of monsters and has to find their way home.

Deltarune is also an amazing game on its own. First off, the graphics are modeled after classic 8-bit games like Metroid and early Mario games. This stylistic choice sets Deltarune apart from the majority of games today, which tend to value 3D animation. Although 8-bit games are considered old, their inspiration in Deltarune is pleasantly fresh.

Another outstanding aspect of Deltarune is its soundtrack, which utilizes synthesized sound and electronic components. The music, like the 8-bit art style, feels like a throwback to old games and is quite refreshing. Outside of that, the music is catchy, well-composed and pleasant. Make sure to play it with headphones, because the tunes are half of the experience.

The game introduces a new battle dynamic that differs from its predecessor and includes new characters along with old ones that separate the game even more from Undertale. The story relies on the dynamics among the four main characters, Kris, Susie, Ralsei and Lancer, who are unique to Deltarune and are not present in Undertale. The relationships among the four are satisfyingly complex and form the emotions and personalities of each individual character nicely.
