Bound to the Dark World

Bound to the Dark World is a retro-style RPG that reimagines Deltarune Chapter 1 as if it were released during the 1990s. Built as a full Earthbound hack, it transforms the familiar story, characters, and gameplay into pixel art and mechanics that fit the era’s classic SNES look and feel.

Players explore a detailed world filled with quirky dialogue, challenging battles, and nostalgic visuals that mirror how Deltarune might have looked decades ago. The project took two years to finish, leading to a polished experience that feels authentic to both Earthbound and Deltarune fans.

You can play Bound to the Dark World quickly and easily for free online, directly in your browser with no installation required. It’s a creative and faithful remake for players who appreciate old-school design mixed with modern storytelling.
