-- INTRODUCTION --
So... What IS DokiTale?
DokiTale is a fusion fangame based on Doki Doki Literature Club and Undertale, built using Coalition Engine by Coalition Enzime/Cheetoss Bakery in Gamemaker.
Now, what exactly is this "fusion fangame"? Excellent question! In short, simple words: Take Undertale's skeleton, shove DDLC's heart into it, put it into a completely new body, skin, and systems, afterwards, give it life and conscience and... Ta-da! That should be DokiTale!
Taking place approximately a decade after the literature club's dissolution, DokiTale is set on a completely new living-and-breathing world inhabited and where both humans and monsters coexist since their very existence, with heavy focus on lore, characters, visual storytelling, and great attention to details. All of the literature club's members, due to their growth into adulthood, have changed beyond recognition as their problems. both old scars and new issues, shaped them into their current statuses while sharing the same club background and, fundametally, still being the same peeople, just grown up and unable to let go of the past...
YOU take control of a mysterious young human foreigner who has just-has-mysteriously arrived to this world, with the help and guidance of this world's benelovent-yet-enigmatic leader known as Monika, you can perhaps get used to this new, both friendly and unfriendly world...
-- FEATURES --
• 1.- Core mechanics:
- Decide your enemies' fate: Fight or Spare! Once again, killing is completely... Ah, screw it, you already know the drill: FIGHT or SPARE! You can go through the whole game without killing a single living being! Ah, but of course, nothing's stopping you from...
- Classic-Yet-Refreshed Undertale-style combat: We are not trying to reinvent the wheel nor add a massive gimmick: This is the Undertale combat you all know and love but spiced up with a plethora of new features:
• Two new buttons have been added to the roster: MAGIC that allows you to both heal, deal heavy damage, and even set your enemies to sleep! (With patience, of course.) Each spell gets progressively stronger depending on your new MG stat and unlocking new, more powerful variants of them as the game progresses along with DEFEND that not only makes you take less damage through the enemy's turn, but also reduces the cooldown for your spells!
• SOUL modifiers system that drastically affects the typical bullet hell gameplay: A pattern may be a lot harder if your SOUL's speed has been doubled or tripled... Or its size doubled! Along with plenty of more and their respective variations that you discover through each fight. Here's a challenge you: Can you beat a bossfight that has them all? (Warning: Unless you are, say, very DETERMINED, you probably won't ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)
- Travel through 5 zones of a living-and-breathing society, and watch as your actions and decisions have consequences on them and their inhabitants: Killed all guards and their leaders on section 3? Watch as section 4 falls into pure anarchy! Insulted a merchant enemy during section 2? Their friends will know and increase their prices because of your hostility!
- Meet now-adult, reimagined versions of the former Literature Club along with the monster inhabitants of this world, each with it's own quirks and lives on this, uh, "special" society! And maybe yourself, too.
- Learn free personal information about anyone with the Logbook system! Every single character you meet has an ID which you can identify them with while reading a logbook that may or may not be theirs, and the contents vary from light-hearted jokes to crime confessions! Don't worry though: All logbooks are free for anyone to read, in fact, everyone leaves them freely in random places of the world... So feel free to be a gossiper!
• 2.- Important Clarifications:
- Original art, soundtrack, wolrd, and lore: We aren't just copy-pasting anime girls into the Underground: All characters have been heavily modified, rewritten, and reimagined to fit in this world while still being themselves, no cheap analogues or simply rehashing arcs from DDLC!
- Classic: The 3 routes! You already know HOW to do them, but how will they play out and where will each one lead to? There may be more to these than a blind eye meets...
- Literature is DEAD, no more annoying poem minigames or fancy wording that nobody actually plays the game for!
• 3.- Just-For-Fun:
- Speed through the game by pressing... Ah, who are we kidding? Most fangames already have that. Anyways, just know that you can *Run.* :P
- Therapy is either extremely expensive or non-existent in this world, apparently...
- Travel, SAVE, and LOAD with [spoiler]and get stalked by[/spoiler]
- I would ask you if you could write the way into someone's heart, but she already did...
- Do consequences matter if I...?
-- DISCLAIMERS --
Although not a horror game, this fangame has content that deals with very heavy topics that may not be suitable for some people, as such, viewer discretion it's advised. This fangame is not intended for younger audiences
This fangame has its own universe and its completely divorced from both DDLC's and Undertale's universe and lore. More importantly, it is NOT a crossover, so if you were hoping for Yuri fighting Papyrus in Snowdin, Sans lazily writing poems in the literature club or anything similar, you're going to have to look somewhere else...
