Mad Father remains my favourite remake of the modern era.
- Original game a small cult classic ✅
- Hindered by lack of resources and/or lack of experience ✅
- Remade by the same author years later ✅
- Enhances and magnifies original intent without reinventing the core game ✅
- Just all around very dope results that elevate the experience ✅
At the end of the day, it's still a short WOLF RPG Editor horror game, and it's nothing you haven't already seen in the horror realm of things nor in the RPG Maker adjacent spectrum. It's pretty standard indie oldschool horror. But damn, it looks fantastic, does its thing and it doesn't overstay its welcome. Short, sweet and to the point. Very recommended.
