OFF is one of those games that deserves a remake if only because people weren't paying enough attention back in 2008. Yes, it became a cult classic that I was more than aware of thanks to having a Tumblr account (for my sins), but as a free, French RPG Maker game relying on fan translations to play it was easy to overlook. This luscious OFF remake is easier to play than ever thanks to a multi-platform release, and it adds several enhancements that makes it slicker.
Unproductive Fun Time, the joint project of Mortis Ghost and Alias Conrad Coldwood, originally developed the game, with Mortis returning for the remake alongside Fangamer (who is also publishing). Undertale creator Toby Fox is also involved with the new soundtrack, who has mentioned before that OFF was one of the inspirations behind Undertale (alongside the likes of Moon, Touhou Project, and more). There's even a new, small reference to Undertale in the early hours of the game. With thematic parallels and a similar playfulness with the medium, OFF is a real must-play for Undertale fans.
