Undertale megathread v5 - An award-winning RPG where nobody has to get SPOILERS. YES, that STILL inc

[QUOTE=Jetamo;49974149]Months after the game came out, I'm still listening to the soundtrack and assorted remixes. :dog:[/QUOTE]

I can't listen to something other than Undertale for a few minutes before wanting to hear another remix.

[QUOTE=StrawberryClock;49973929]
Like, I know it's not a completely fair hypothetical but if you could talk to Toby Fox over a cup of coffee for 15 minutes would you actually say to him that you feel "disgust" over what you perceive as a lack of effort or would you give him the benefit of the doubt and just mention that you're disappointed?[/QUOTE]
I wouldn't say I'm disgusted unless he flat out said he wasn't going to do it, which isn't the situation right now.
Also if I talked to him I'd probably just be like 'hard mode when'.

[QUOTE=RIPBILLYMAYS;49973093]I also want to throw out there that from playing around with Game Maker, making a video game from scratch is an absolute nightmare.

I tried creating a sprint key and my character couldn't stop sprinting and ran out of the map.

I tried adding gravity for a platforming section and the whole room fell off the screen.

I tried giving enemies pursuing AI and they clip through walls.

There's so many little things you take for granted. I understand Toby's sentiments of needing a break.[/QUOTE]

I recently finished a college class on game development where we used Gamemaker, and this is pretty much the experience. For my final project, I made something mildly similar to Undertale's bullet hell minigames, and developing each attack to be fun is a significant undertaking. Once you get the attack working how you want it to, it only gets worse. There is always sound, sprites, etc... Timing it with everything else so that it's fair and flows well (sound, animation, everything) despite random selection of attacks is even more of a nightmare. Each enemy battle in Undertale isn't something created in a day, (At least not at my skill level.) it's far more time consuming than that, even with limited color palette sprites, reused music for most battles, etc.

Gamemaker may not be the most powerful game development tool out there, nor may it take quite as long to develop in, but it isn't a baby's tool either.

So I just beat this and apparently got the neutral ending or something. Is a genocidal or pacifist playthrough any different, or will they basically just change the endings?

They are both VERY different. I'd recommend you do pacifist and I doubt you'll be able to bring yourself to do genocide.

if you didn't kill anyone, you can still do pacifist ending off that save file. otherwise yeah you'll have to reset.

Without spoiling, why's that? After the neutral playthrough I feel like the only thing that would discourage me from doing a genocide playthrough is that the FIGHTing mechanic ins't that interesting.

I only killed one thing during the tutorial before I found out how strict the game was, so I guess that made me too much of a homicidal maniac to be a pacifist unfortunately.

Then yeah you'll have to reset. Which isn't that bad since some of the text in game will be different this time around, and also you get a slightly longer game

Will a pacifist playthrough go into more detail like why [sp]Flowey is somehow the main antagonist, despite being in the game only at the beginning for two minutes? I thought that was really dumb in the neutral playthrough since it's just the reverse of a deus ex machina.[/sp]

yep. both genocide and pacifist expand the fuck out of things.

[PotatoArmada]

Alright, thanks for the info.

We won't rest until either [sp]Asriel is saved[/sp] or :dog: takes over the world. Whichever comes first.

Anyone know the progress on that comic Toby promised?

I don't think anyone asides Toby and those immediately close to him have any idea. It's all been hush-hush since it was posted as a kickstarter goal.

And so, Asgore absorbed all seven souls and became the Emperor of mankind.

As a WH40K fan, I can dig this artwork of Asgore "Can't reach the door, smash them through the floor" Dreemurr.
[sp]Am I going to hell for this?[/sp]

Yes hello I'm here. Despite that outburst earlier this thread, I really love Undertale and lurk this thread a lot.

[ironman17]

I think it's fair to say that the denizens of the Underground wouldn't last a second in the 40K universe. They'd probably evaporate the moment they walk out the door, and even if they didn't they'd probably end up as auxiliaries of the Tau.

For a few hours. Before they get obliterated by an Inquisition fleet.

Holy crap, I just discovered "HARD DRIVE" by Grifinilla - Probably my favourite piece of vocal fan music for the game now.

Goddamn.
