Well when it comes to coming up with stories I don’t tend to follow the traditional way. By that I mean someone sitting at a desk writing random words then try to make a story out of it.
I tend to rely on my dreams for inspiration. Whatever my weird quirky mind comes up with when I’m sleeping is a potential story for me.
So that’s pretty much what inspired me to write this story. My mind was being weird one night and was like, “Hey! What if Undertale was real? What would the hardships they’d have to face be? What a way to break the fourth wall!!”
The idea wouldn’t leave me alone so I wrote it down and here we are today :P
By now you all probably know that the creator of Undertale, Toby Fox was a fan of the Mother series aka EarthBound. Also the fact that when he was younger Toby Fox would make is own fan games of the Mother franchise, most notably the EarthBound Halloween fan game. One can’t leave out the fact that Toby Fox seems to have put in Undertale a few Mother references…
While I was watching a Game Theorists history of Mother (EarthBound) video I noticed something that caught my attention. While the narrator was rambling about something I forgot now I noticed a particular lamp in the video clip being played. A lamp that looks all too familiar.
This is the lamp from one of the Mother (EarthBound) games….

And this is the lamp from Undertale…

They look oddly similar, don’t you think? :3
