They're my nostrils. I can still see through them, though.
When you first went into the closet with Susie, I was fully expecting for the lights to flick on and it be a normal room, and then Sans walks in and goes "Oh its just me your janitor Sans."
I'm pretty sure Deltarune doesn't actually modify your Undertale installations, despite some claims to the contrary.
I've run the game with 'strace' (which logs file system activity, such as what files or directories the game is reading), and the game doesn't seem to look for any Undertale files. Furthermore, scanning the data.win and DELTARUNE.exe files for strings using the 'strings' application doesn't match any of Undertale's save files, although it finds matches for true_config.ini and dr.ini, which are files created by Deltarune.
That, or Toby is using obfuscation to hide his trails, but I doubt that.
Ah, finally got around the survey and I love it, especially susie and ralsei. Can't wait for more.
Ended up finishing Deltarune in one sitting. Haven't been this excited for a video game in a long time.
Did I miss something aboutthe knight? The king mentions him several times, but he never shows up. Or did I misunderstand and he was referring to you?
I guess you're right. That's probably why it's weird for me to see so many people using 'he' for them as a girl.

It's offset by being a shitty programmer with the coding skills of an Ubisoft intern.
I point to the execution of the uninstaller as evidence.
You might think I'm being rather bitter and aggressive over the matter, but when you've had one of those 80's era balding-on-top with long hair men wearing a cardigan with thick rimmed glasses, corduroy trousers, brown loafers and a sex offender beardstache give you shit for an out of line if statement and not writing everything perfect in pure assembler a rookie error like improper pathing tends to stick out.
It does makes me wonder if there was a poor soul during the first few hours of release and installed it outside its own folder, and then uninstalling it after finishing it, getting all their files erased and thinking it was still part of the spooky meta-game for a minute before toby announced it was a fault in bad programming
One of the scripts went so deep into itself that it caused a stackoverflow in the primary decompiler due to nesting so deeply
I think the number one best composer you can have as a game designer is yourself, as you have the best idea of what your game is like and so the soul of it rests within you
That COULD be rudimentary a decompiler trap... or something as terrible as
if(ent)
if(ent.params)
if(ent.params.dog = dog)
if(dog)
if(dog.icon)
if(dog.loc == 'desk')
if(player.zone == dog.zone)
if(zone.desk)
if(desk.occupant == dog)
if(!dog.behaviour)
if(dog.icon !=working)
if(!game.finished)
if(!dog.state == 'sleepy')
dog.icon == 'dogwork.gif';

Just finished the first chapter, good stuff.
Think about where the undertale fanbase produced content started out, mostly cosy with dashes of funny.
Then where it went, creepy and possessive.
Then think about the zillions of "sans undertale" you've seen over the past year.
This is the entry point for Deltarune, but with the energy and fervour of a NEW game and a newer more efficent internet machine, capable of taking the smallest thing, turning it into a TERRIBLE meme, grinding that meme into dirt and casting it out as speeds faster and in quantities several orders of magnitude greater than three years ago.
If this is the sort of stuff we're getting now, I dread to think what'll happen when the game has been out six months, the fan theories are discussed to death, the good fan-artists are burnt out and everyone is content starved and desperate.
Is this a serious post?
Personally my rule of thumb is never let a rabid fandom ruin stuff you like. It's always going to be inevitable whether it's a small niche thing or something that blows up in large swathes.
I mean it's neat being able to reasonably discuss the games without a large divide between the anti-people who hate the game just because it exists and due to the fans and will shit on anyone who even mentions it, and the diehard fans who can't stop spouting memes and quotes left and right every discussion about it. But either way they won't affect the game, nor the moments and fun discussions you had with people will be erased.
I remember following a few fan-made stuff a few months after Undertale was out like that Dreemur Reborn thing, then just kind of lost interest following every theory and stuff after it just branched out with many derivatives and feature creeps and outlandish ideas from fans, along with the lack of any word of updates from toby on where the game might be headed next. Despite losing interest in the fandom however, I still love the game and just the memories of playing it and having fun talking about it with people during its initial release won't fade away.
Deltarune might most likely go the same path, but no matter what I'm just excited to see the story and world toby wants to create and show the world, and no amount of terrible memes, gamer theories and fan derivatives is gonna change that for me.
Now that Undertale is once again hot and relevant (yay btw), its about time we got a discord going for that deep discussion i cant stop talking about this game please talk to me about this game on discord

Not really...
But at the same time, I kinda wanna see how deep fried the memes get.
And at the same time the internet IS producing memes more frequently, reaching higher peaks, and crashing harder and faster compared to four years ago. The upside is we'll see much funnier stuff along with the enhanced cringe.
For me it reached the point where the words "Undertale" and "Sans" brought back nice fuzzy memories and a good way to get the snowding music stuck in my head for yet another week but "Sans Undertale" didn't make me think of anything undertale related whatsoever.
Aren't those installers/uninstallers usually the kind where you enter the files to install and the location, and the program churns out a complete installer without any coding effort?
Not that he's an elegant coder; there's a switch statement in the original game with hundreds of cases that handles all the "yes/no" dialogue boxes in the game.
Yeah, Steam's done the same thing with uninstallations. I modded Sonic Mania a bit, and had to reinstall the game after computer problems back in January, only to get hit with the entire directory and all the mods gone in an instant. It's weirdly very selective about this and sometimes leaves shit behind.
I think one just needs to remember not to be a dumbass and stuck SURVEY_REPORT in with other things.
I think I know why the Darkworld has a pseudo-Alice in Wonderland aesthetic.
Everything is just a little off, isn't it? We're through the looking-glass, boys.
It's such a lovely game,but I feel like we're going to have to wait 5 years for the next chapter,and I hope to god I'll be able to live for the next 5 years.
I was quite surprised to see this thread pop up at the top of the list in Games section, and after a few clicks I thought "wait, there's been several pages of discussion in such a short timespan? Wonder what this is about."
Cue me learning about Deltarune and being thoroughly absorbed in the survey.
It was an absolute blast, but I must ask something.
Did anyone else really like the character creator and curse at Toby for bamboozling it at the end? I got super invested into it, making someone who likes soft food and has a blue SOUL of kindness, named 'COMPASS' - both for compassion and always knowing their bearings.
God
Damn
It
With the red horns on Ralsei & Toriel's dialogue, is it possible that he is what Kris wants to be? A character everyone loves, just like his brother with the same letters in his name, with an eerily similar backstory to Undertale? I feel like we are intentionally being played to adore Ralsei.
