UNDERTALE
UNDERTALE Only Up - Climbing Adventure Through The Underground
Discover UNDERTALE like never before in this innovative Only Up adaptation that transforms the beloved RPG into a challenging climbing adventure. Journey vertically through the Underground, encountering familiar characters and locations reimagined for platforming gameplay, all available for free in your web browser.
Unique Gameplay Concept
This special version maintains the heart and soul of UNDERTALE while introducing vertical climbing mechanics. Instead of traditional RPG combat, you'll navigate treacherous ascents through iconic locations like the Ruins, Snowdin Forest, Waterfall, and Hotland. The game preserves the original's spirit through environmental storytelling and character interactions during your climb.
Key Features
- Iconic Locations: All major UNDERTALE areas recreated as climbing challenges
- Character Encounters: Meet Sans, Papyrus, Toriel and others during your ascent
- Multiple Routes: Pacifist, Neutral, and Genocide paths affect climbing difficulty
- Original Music Adaptations: Beloved tracks rearranged for platforming sections
- Browser Accessibility: No installation required - play directly online
Climbing Mechanics with UNDERTALE Twist
The core Only Up mechanics are enhanced with UNDERTALE's signature elements. Some sections allow for "ACT" options instead of pure platforming, where choosing dialogue options can create new pathways. Enemy encounters become environmental hazards to navigate, and boss characters appear as particularly challenging climbing sequences.
Visual and Audio Design
While maintaining the pixel art aesthetic that made UNDERTALE iconic, this version expands the visual language with verticality in mind. Each area features distinctive climbing mechanics - icy surfaces in Snowdin, echo flowers creating temporary platforms in Waterfall, and conveyor belts in Hotland. The soundtrack adapts original themes to match the pacing of climbing sequences.

Tips for Ascent
Success in this UNDERTALE adaptation requires understanding both climbing mechanics and the original game's logic. Some obstacles can only be passed by "showing mercy" (waiting patiently), while others require determination (precise platforming). Pay attention to environmental clues and character dialogue - they often hint at upcoming challenges. Remember that falling doesn't mean failure in the Underground; it just means another chance to climb higher.
Whether you're a longtime UNDERTALE fan or new to climbing games, this unique fusion offers a fresh perspective on beloved characters and locations. Begin your vertical journey through the Underground today.
