  • What's Lv Stand For? – Dychotomia Pomiędzy Człowieczeństwem I Potwornością W Grze Undertale
    Kultura i Historia nr 32/2017 WHAT'S LV STAND FOR? – DYCHOTOMIA POMIĘDZY CZŁOWIECZEŃSTWEM I POTWORNOŚCIĄ W GRZE UNDERTALE. Martyna Bakun Uniwersytet Marii Curie-Skłodowskiej w Lublinie [email protected] Abstract: What's LV stand for? – dichotomy between humanity and monstrosity in Undertale The means of expression, narrative and gameplay in contemporary video games, especially those that might be called mainstream, are quite limited and repetitive. The reasons behind this situation are high production cost which leads to using the safe and popular motives that are easy to sell. To find games that are innovative and avantgarde one should consider the analysis of independent branch of the industry. One of the examples of games that avoids using clichés is Undertale (Toby Fox, 2015). In the gameplay and narrative the game refers to classic productions of jRPG and “Shoot ‘Em Up” genres. The narrative is a simple story about a kid that accidently falls into underworld inhabited by monsters. This basic concepctions are just the starting point. The author uses intertextuality, emmersion and plays with clichés to build the truly postmodern game. One of the focal point in Undertale is dichotomy between humanity and monstrosity. In the complex approach to this topic the game explores such themes as references to the modern culture, classic fairytales, mythology, and, innovative gameplay and narrative mechanics. The purpose of this text is to analyze these elements in the context of building monstrous and demonic figures. Keywords: video games, independent video games, game studies, Undertale, deamons, monsters, RPG Abstrakt: Współczesne gry wideo, szczególnie te należące do głównego nurtu produkcji wysokobudżetowych, operują szeregiem powtarzających się środków wyrazu, rozwiązań narracyjnych i mechanicznych.
