'Wtf is going on': Indie dev discovers their neglected Steam game is powering an Undertale multiplayer mod following its freak 1700% jump in player activity
Indie developer RetroSpecter discovered their 2018 game, Crashphalt, experienced a 1700% surge in player activity on Steam, largely due to its use as a workaround for the Undertale Together multiplayer mod. Players are copying Crashphalt's installation files into a modded Undertale directory to enable online play, leading to unexpected reviews and a second life for the neglected platformer. The developer expressed excitement about the game finding a new purpose and even humorously suggested a collaboration with Undertale's creator, Toby Fox.
