The Underside

Post by moshboy »

Game: The Underside
Developer: arthur lee
Description: the underside is an exploration based action platformer in the vein (it's a pun~) of games like castlevania, metroid, and cave story. however, unlike most other games in this genre, the gameplay is driven more by plot than by free-roaming exploration (though the world is fully explorable). the underside has been under development since early 2005.

There was a hot discussion somewhere (tigsource?) between Derek Yu and Podunkian, who was accused by Derek of ripping off Doukutsu Monogatari graphics... If I'll find it again I'll give the link here since it was really hot and involved innocent bypassing fans (of Derek, Cave Story and Underside).

Still in development. Or maybe not. Anyway, the hype has worn off and nobody talks about Underside anymore.

Still under development. And Arthur "Mr. Podunkian" Lee has a new, nice looking website:
