Toby Fox created Undertale, a critically acclaimed indie RPG inspired by Earthbound, largely by himself. Starting with RPG Maker 2000 as a kid, Fox developed a unique battle system where players can spare or kill enemies. After raising over $50,000 on Kickstarter in 2013, he handled writing, design, and music composition, though the project exceeded its summer 2014 deadline. Released in September 2015, Undertale achieved 96% positive Steam reviews, sold over 6 million units, and grossed roughly $30 million, becoming one of the most influential indie games.
