Reading the entire game as a metaphor about design makes the ending a more complex development and the game would be worth a look even if that's all there was to it. Indeed, it's possible to refer to the 'tutorial' as 'mother', which pleases and puzzles the blasted thing. The weirdness of the characters and narratives is more directly satirical, and the suffocatingly parental character makes the entire game seem a parody of controlling tutorials.

If you don't play until the depressed ghost makes an appearance, you have seen nothing. Stick with the demo through the alternately bizarre and bland opening minutes, and there's a tiny world of wonder. It's a weird adventure in the style of a JRPG, with random encounters, a silent protagonist, single room puzzles and turn-based combat. Ten minutes later, I was ready to quit and around half an hour after that I'd completed the demo, which is a complete short story, and was glad that I'd persisted.

I had been playing Undertale's free demo for two minutes when the memory of Space Funeral popped into my mind like a drunken Jack in the Box.
