BeatdownBound

BeatdownBound is an RPG Maker game set in the world of Smash Bros Lawl Beatdown. The game is an exploratory lore based game where Frisk explores the Smash Bros. Lawl Beatdown Mansion, talking to characters, helping them out, battling enemies, and finding secrets, alongside other things. It was revealed during the Summer 2020 direct. Game progress was shared during 2021's April Fools video, and the game was released on April 15, 2021.
The game is inspired by the Homestuck interactive flashes, specifically Alterniabound and Openbound, which involved characters walking around areas during the story and talking with various characters. Despite the Homestuck origins, the visual style of the game is a direct nod to Undertale's visual style, even within the battle sprites emulating Undertale's.

==Trivia==
*BeatdownBound marks the first appearances in the Beatdown Lore for Dr. Roxanne Winters, Sans, Qrow Branwen, General Ironwood, Enya the Hag, Terence T. D'Arby and Garfield the Deals Warlock.
*When talking to Markiplier, he tells Frisk that he seems to be familiar with a few of the other residents of the mansion already, specifically mentioning Watts & Rosalene, Frisk and Viola. This is a reference to the fact that Mark has done Let's Plays of To the Moon, Undertale and The Witch's House in real life. Interestingly, Mark doesn't mention knowing The Batter, despite the fact he has also done a Let's Play of OFF.
**However, Mark's Let's Play of OFF would later be referenced in the outro to The Batter's moveset video, when The Batter himself walks past Mark and Kiran inside the mansion, while they appeared to have been submitting some forms to have their Final Smashes updated, with Mark looking at The Batter in confusion.
*The intro to the game appears to be based on the intro to Deltarune.
