Chang was primarily responsible for its most complex elements, including cutscenes and several characters. Her most notable characters are the Temmies, a dog-cat mixture species derived from a sketch by artist Betty Kwong, named after Chang. The widespread acclaim and commercial success of Undertale allowed Chang to pay off her student loans and gain notice for her work. She regularly works with the animation studio Yotta and has collaborated with video game developers WayForward and Team Meat. Chang has released two RPG Maker games, including Escaped Chasm (2019), followed by Dweller's Empty Path (2020). Fox worked on the music for both games, while Japanese composer Camellia also worked on Dweller's, arranging most of its music.

Chang is known for her distinctive style of pixel art and animation with flexible lines and dynamic subjects, conveying a sense of nostalgia.
