Mercair's Silly Deltarune: THE ROGUE'S GALLERY (Part 1)

It's finally time. The BAD GUYS are here, at least of them.

Allow me to present them to you:

The Director & The Host: Also known as Anne Tenna and Mike Roffanni, rulers of their own movie/TV themed dark world. Their main objective, after being sent to sleep for such a long time by the lightners, is to make the BEST OF IT.

To make the GREATEST show, the BEST movie... THE ULTIMATE CINEMATIC EXPERIENCE.

And The Fun Gang will be the main characters of all of their shenanigans, whether they like it or not !!

Chapter name: "Back on Stage!"

LW Objects: Antenna, CRT TV

The Captains: Captain Cyclon and Captain Frag.

DEADLY RIVALS !!

What? You thought they were gonna be working together? Pfft nah, these guys can't stand eachother!

Captain Cyclon. Professional superhero (says no one), with his super strength, electric powers, and a really cool cape, seeks to take control of the entire dark world, to turn it into a really strange utopia where everyone is lazy, and lets HIM and his precious sidekicks do all the work. Why? Easy, he's a hero, and an idiot.

Captain Frag. The low tempered king of the seas, mean, always angry, short, and in control of one of the biggest dark world army. He wants to take control of the dark world to turn it into his own empire, where everyone works for him and does what he say, like giving him your entire stash of gold or something.

And the only way for both of them to accomplish their objectives is... TO TAKE OVER THE FOUNTAIN.

Befriend, one of them, and stop the other's plans, if YOU DARE !!

Chapter name: Brotherly Rivalry

LW Objects: Sans' walking cycle, Papyrus' pirate flag.

The CEO: Ahh Ice-E's Pezza... Such a horrifying place.

The CEO, "ultimate" boss of the Ice-E corporation. Though he looks abnormally nervous and insecure, don't let it fool you, this guy is a true boss! It's not like Ice-E himself is threatening him to do this or anything. Nope. Not at all...

So, his objective is quite simple actually: THE ETERNAL PROSPERITY OF THE ICE-E CORPORATION, NO MATTER WHAT. Anything that hurts or threatens Ice-E's image must be ELIMINATED ASAP. You want to close Ice-E's FOUNTAIN? Then you're in for some trouble.

Chapter name: Is Ice-E REAL?

LW object: Ice-E's Employee Manual

The Showmaster: THE FESTIVAL IS HERE !!

The Showmaster is funny, jolly old man, who's only objective... Is to make your adventure the most magical experience possible. Come on, have fun a little! Get on a ride, watch some of the wonderful performances of his crew while you eat your favorite food!

There's nothing to worry about! There's nothing to worry about! There's nothing to worry about!

Specially that pesky "Knight"...

Chapter name: The Knight

LW object: Merry-Go Round

And that's it !!

For now... Hope ya' liked it.

See ya !!

Every (Serious) Prediction I Had for DELTARUNE Chapters 3 & 4

exactly what it says on the tin, just about everything I had some degree of confidence in would happen while having avoided subscribing to any particular major theories lol, obviously spoilers and all that, i'll throw in a couple predictions i made as i was playing too

obviously even besides everything i had written here the general way things went was absolutely nothing like i expected lol

i had an entire like soundcloud take parody planned out to make fun of how ridiculous some of them got but gave up on it due to not having enough freetime to learn music and more pressingly getting outstupided by people unironically doing things so maybe i'll make a post out of that too eventually, but i'm leaving that stuff out of this because none of it was genuine lol

Chapter 3 (Before Playing)

Chapters live up to the hype - HELL YEAH THEY DID

Chapter 3 is the house in general, not just the TV - Mostly incorrect I think

Lots of minigames - Correct

Tenna ruler & final boss - Correct

Tenna lives up to the hype - Correct, thank god

Chapter premise being forced into shows by Tenna - Correct

POINTs as chapter-specific currency - Correct

Perfect score rewards to torture players - Correct, T-Ranks

Tenna fight has a Mettaton EX rating-esque gimmick - Correct somefuckinghow

...But you beat him by making his ratings tank - FUCK.

Toriel is this chapter's Noelle - Incorrect

One of the cops shows up, probably Undyne - Correct somefuckinghow

...But as this chapter's Berdly - FUCK.

Mike is the phone - Incorrect

Mike doesn't live up to the hype, minor role, everyone was wrong about who he is - Correct (Unless you count the fight in Castle Town as "living up to the hype" which no everybody was saying he was gonna be integral to the plot, and those Mikes were literally making fun of Mike theories)

Chairiel character, shopkeeper? - Incorrect

SB is either Technician Theory or the Flowers - Incorrect (Though I'm much more pleased with the SBs we got than I would've been with either of those for obvious reasons)

Remote is a character and got a messiah complex from being saved from the couch after however long they were stuck there, potential SB given they were just given Freedom by Susie, or final boss by taking over Tenna? - Incorrect, I never saw anybody actually say this (Closest was a take with a Rook as the remote) that was literally just my own cooking lol

More Susie personal life lore - Correct

...Leading to Toriel letting Susie sleep on her couch as a guest - Incorrect, I wasn't super serious about that one I just thought it would've been sweet and I guess we kinda got something similar of her going to church?

Knight irrelevant to this chapter, if brought up by anyone only by Ralsei - Goddammit

Ralsei'd chew Kris out for making this Fountain - Incorrect

Reverse Undertale theory, corresponds to Hotland - Correct I think?

Squiddles and/or Midnight Crew references - Goddammit lol

Tenna (And CH3 recruits in general) doesn't come to Castle Town because why would Toriel let you take the TV - Incorrect

Rouxls rematch - Correct

Another milk boss - Incorrect

FRIEND is an actual character that wouldn't be properly revealed yet - ????????????

Shadow Mantle isn't actually here, has greater significance (Gaster's robe in the Mysteryman sprite or something?) - Incorrect, do we even know what it actually is???

Susiezilla doesn't actually come up - Incorrect

SB has Purple Soul - Goddammit

CH3&4 have more scenes for visiting the Shelter like what happened in CH2, and for every chapter up to 6 - Incorrect lol

Video game theming would be some other chapter, probably 5 so Reverse Undertale theory with Snowdin & Ice Palace - Incorrect apparently

At one point months ago I made a joke about Tenna having body doubles that look nothing alike as a joke making fun of takes - I was so close. If I had just said Mike. IF I HAD JUST SAID MIKE. THAT WOULD'VE BEEN THE CRAZIEST CALL I COULD'VE EVER MADE.

Chapter 4 (Before Playing)

Church - Correct, but that was only because of the last trailer so that doesn't really count (I had NO IDEA what it was going to be beforehand, in my take from earlier I mentioned I had the Church as Chapter 6 to be the Ruins since I figured that made the most sense but I wasn't also trying to be correct with that so like whatever)

Chess theory not necessarily debunked by Tenna, they only appear in Fountains made by the Knight - GODDAMMIT

Ruler is Bishop, Darkner version of the lectern - GODDAMMIT^2

Catti, Jockington and/or Alvin - GODDAMMIT^3

Jockington's amount of new portraits is equal to the amount of duplicate ones he had in the files lol - GODDAMMIT^4

Gerson relevance - HELL YEAH

Knight debuts here - Uhhhh... I mean... They do appear...

...But isn't fought - AWESOME

...Their identity not hinted at besides maybe by the SB - FUCK.

...Directly shown to be ordering the Bishop around, Bishop realizes they suck and that's how they come to Castle Town - I mean... The Knight does make the final boss here? I... I guess?

Mayor debuts, only in the Light World - Correct

If the Sweepstakes pizza box does appear in a DW related to it's physical location and not just a random cameo, it'd be here - ...I mean... Uh... Is it too early to write this off? Like, that caveat means I win if it doesn't appear at all or just randomly appears outside of it's context as an SB or whatever... But also wasn't it said the Sweepstakes stuff was noncanon actually or something??? I don't know anymore

New Roaring lore - Correct

New Angel lore - Incorrect kinda they at least get brought up I guess

New Ralsei lore - Correct, though I was thinking like his specific nature as a Darkner not just him as a person so maybe this doesn't count

Reverse Undertale theory, this is Waterfall - Definitely correct, thanks Gerson (Though it also kinda felt like the Ruins at times)

Weird Route either has Berdly funeral since it's the church, or he's in the hospital - Latter's correct

...And he's Fallen Down - GODDAMMIT (AFAIK that's not said, at least, I forgot to check the hospital when I did my Weird Route run)

Noelle doesn't have major relevance again yet - ...I mean... I meant in the Dark World... So... I guess I was right? Kinda?

...Because she'll be in Chapter 5 which is Ice-E's - Prominent theory is Flower King now so FUCK.

Piano puzzles because Waterfall - Correct somefuckinghow

Pianpian motif shows up here as a culmination of the piano puzzles - I'm gonna take Pianpian itself playing as a victory here even if it's not exactly what I guessed

SB is Gerson's Hammer - CORRECT SOMEHOW. SOMEFUCKINGHOW. I THREW THIS OUT AS A BULLSHIT GUESS BECAUSE I HAD NOTHING. This is the one that got me the most out of all the things I got right, this and Undyne

Other SB guesses were either some kind of apocryphal book of the Angel religion that explains the Angel's Heaven is Bad Actually, or the Legendary Artifact - I would've bet way more on those than the goddamn hammer so do I still lose

Pluey is irrelevant - Correct, unless you count them being one of the Mikes but I swear someone made like a half-hour video trying to guess what they'd be and I thought that was the dumbest shit ever (I also didn't watch it)

Another Rouxls rematch, another milk boss - Incorrect

SB has Green Soul - Correct

Predictions During Playthrough

Rabbicks return in Chapter 3 - Sorta correct, with the Ribbicks and the single Rabbick in the S-Rank room

Fourth collectibles in the Boards factor into the SB - ...I mean, you do need S-Ranks, and those do help a lot... But that's not what I meant...

Block puzzles lead directly to Rouxls rematch - Incorrect

Ramb SB - Incorrect but I think everybody thought that, kinda wanna cook up my own take on what his fight would've been like so post coming soon maybe (Is it just me or does his hair shape almost look like a phone? Not that that'd make any sense for him to be the phone, but I thought it at the time)

Tenna's looking for Toriel - Correct I think? It was never specifically stated who that call was about but I dunno who else he would've been after

Tenna kidnaps Toriel - Correct

I'd start hating Tenna once the kidnap reveal happens - Incorrect, thank god

You can enter the "leftover area" - What actually happens doesn't really count, does it? You just pass through it to get back to the part you see in the main Board

Rouxls' rematch will be him in a weather-themed outfit - Incorrect, that would've been so funny though

Tenna's going to kill Toriel for being strict about what Kris could watch - Incorrect, that came from me reading the Raise Up Your Bat lyrics but I was so focused on the minigame because I sucked ass at it I only actually saw a few lines

Something funny'd happen if you rafted to the Atlantis tile early - Incorrect, goddammit

The manhole in the S-Rank room factors into the Egg - I haven't actually gotten the CH3 Egg since I only tried in my Weird Route run where killing everyone seems to disable one of the NPCs needed for this one, but it doesn't seem like the manhole ties in from the instructions I've read?

Cold desert area is the Glaceir - Nope, I saw the leaked song names so I was just trying to guess ahead of time what played where lol, only guess I actually had for what'd play where was Concert For You was the Pianpian motif, which I was close lol

The noodle amalgamate you know the one appears behind one of the Chapter 3 curtains - Thankfully not, though the 1225 secret made up the Would've Scared The Shit Out Of Me factor this would've had

Tenna bringing up the Knight meant they're not an actual Light World person but some kind of avatar of the Fountains/Darkness in general to communicate with the rulers because there's no way the Knight just knew to show up to this random Fountain Kris made, right - Incorrect

For the like 5 seconds when Tenna was attacked before it was revealed it was the Knight I thought it was Undyne attacking Tenna due to misunderstanding him as a threat just as he stops being one - Incorrect, though I was so close to her timing lol

Catti makes the Church Fountain - Incorrect

Tenna actually died - Only in the Jerk Route lol

Batshit theories like Friend Inside Me wouldn't be acknowledged because why would they - Goddammit

Dark-colored door is Dess' room - Does this even count as a prediction like obviously it was lol

Kris ripping the Soul out and storming out of the room meant they were about to make a Fountain in front of Susie & Noelle - Thankfully incorrect, could you have imagined

Segment of running around as the Soul would lead to you either controlling Susie or Noelle - Thankfully incorrect again that would've been HORRIFIC for the Weird Route

Phone's the Knight - Incorrect lol, I called it being the Mayor when it said they'd be right there but that doesn't count

Mayor'd chew Noelle out upon showing up/be a negative presence - Obviously correct, also made me had to pause the game because I Sure Do Have No Personal Problems This Would Stir Up At All Nope I'm Okay!

If Tenna reappeared in Castle Town his arms would be gone - Incorrect but this would've been hilarious, could you imagine him doing his stupid dance animation but without his arms

Church Field theme one-ups the one Church Field theme I found one time that was one of my favorite fansongs - Correct, thank god, all of Chapter 4's songs were peak

If Chapter 4 has a Weird Route, Toriel may die - Thankfully the Weird Route didn't effect the Dark World that would've given me a heart attack with how freaky it got here

Chapter 4 would be my favorite chapter - Thankfully correct, minus the mayor bit obviously

Ralsei's being shifty because he doesn't know the real Prophecy/has the wrong one - Incorrect... I think, I know the theory going around now is the Prophecy is inaccurate lol but like I mean as in he knows the same one we saw here

The Red Things in the black rooms were Gerson fucking around/having some kind of evil alter ego he'd slip into due to being undead - Incorrect thank fuck, you can imagine the fear I felt thinking this might be the case when the Fake Gerson fight happened

Gerson's writing a letter to Alvin - Correct, but that was pretty easy I think

If the Weird Route effects the Dark World, Gerson the Undying - Thankfully incorrect, but again you can imagine the fear I felt from Fake Gerson

...Or you have to kill Gerson in - Also thankfully incorrect, I would've CRIED

Sealing the first Fountain wasn't actually the end - Correct, though I expected a surprise fight like how Spamton NEO cuts you off in the CH2 Weird Route so incorrect I guess

Ralsei'd chew Susie out for making this Fountain - Incorrect again

@friendlyneighborhoodmenace said there was "an enemy I'd really like" and "I'd know it when I see it", and I figured it'd just be a witch instead of anything specific - Correct lol, Wicabel (My big worldbuilding bullshit has a shitton of witches, for context, I'd link it here but nobody's fucking reading my 70-page psychosis because of a Deltarune post ...it's in my pinned post btw)

The weird black orb things get a Smorgs-type fight - Incorrect for now, I assume they're related to the Knight/Titans so hopefully we'll get one eventually that'd be so fun

Final Prophecy is someone dying (One of the main trio, Noelle, or Dess), the Roaring can't actually be stopped, or the main fountain has to be sealed - Guess we'll see

Ralsei saying he wants there to be more than one ending bodes poorly for the Weird Route - Guess we'll see^2

so uh all in all i'm glad i avoided watching all of those super long video essays because i honestly did way better than i expected myself to lol... i say as if anyone will believe i called fucking undyne & gerson you're all gonna think i'm full of shit

[garden-of-absurdity]

so i just now finished deltarune chapters 3 & 4

im a little brain overloaded rn so this is gonna be super scatterbrained, i also havent done everything there is to do in those 2 chapters (i didnt beta gerson in chapter 4 and apparently you can ebeat the knight in chapter 3????? gonna look into that later)

jackenstein is a bitch of a fight. i did not expect toby to make the world's hardest game in deltarune what the fuck

chapter 3 blew me away with visuals and gameplay like goddamn

WHAT THE FUCK IS KRIS'S DEAL??? LIKE EVERY ASSUMPTION I HAD ABOUT THE MOTHERFUCKER JUST GOT SHATTERED LIKE 5 MINUTES INTO CHAPTER 4 THE FUCK

also soul vent gameplay lowkey kinda sucked. once you got out of the vents it was fun but just traveling through the vents at a snails pace was killing me especially when i had no idea where to go. then again i could not resist my instinct to explore so part of that mightve been my fault

susie is still the best character in the game (no surprise) the only bad thing she ever did was tell noelle the dark world was a dream because i really could've used sleep mist in chapter 4

wtf is asgore doing who let this man have plot relevance

kinda thought we would meet mike but i couldnt find the bastard

gotta be real i think the knight is dess because:

roaring knight is a lightner as they have a form in the light world

they got antlers

is, or is atleast aligned with whoever Kris is talking to on the phone (phone said there would be a dark world in the church, didn't want susie to get into the bunker where the knight took Undyne) and the end of chapter 4 implies that Kris has an emotional connection to this person given that they promised something to them

this figure on the phone knew about the code hidden in Dess's guitar

then again im operating off of definitely incomplete knowledge here

what with carol being blue. did not expect. bitch looks oxygen deprived no wonder she's so cranky

this mf ralsei really needs to get over himself and start talking like bro. we need that info.

i forgot to fuse gear in castle town and the game never gave me an opportunity to go back (this was sometime in chapter 4) and im still mad about it

[hueberryjam]

Aight I got a few questions because I love SNEO so much and don't wanna flood your inbox! (Also I have found another angst lover :])

What would happen if I ask SNEO about Mike or do/say anything related to Mike? Does SNEO remember him?

How did Spamton feel after the first few days he was tangled up, and then the first few months?

Did He scream at all? I'm assuming if you're down in a basement tied in your own 'veins' you'd be screaming for help. And I feel like with his giant form at least *someone* would hear him.

What would SNEO do if Kris returned somehow? Perhaps by messing with game files

Can Spamton learn to write?

You said that Spamton just wanted to nap all the time after he was free. Why couldn't he sleep when he was tangled? Was it the hysteria or smth?

(And random fluff question for some reason!! :D) Who is his favorite Addison? If he had the ability to speak to them somehow what would he say?

So sorry for all the questions 🙇‍♀️ I just l9ve your au SO MUCH

Hoo-whee! You sure sent in a lot of questions! (This isn’t even all of them!) Been mentally preparing myself to answer these since I’ve been so burnt out with school, buuuut I really appreciate how much you care about my silly little AU!! Thank you for all your love and support!!

BUCKLE IN! THIS IS GONNA BE A LONG ONE FOLKS!

1. What would happen if I ask SNEO about Mike or do/say anything related to Mike?

Of course, Spamton has some pretty strong emotions tied to Mike, as we can clearly tell from canon Spamton. But, since Mike’s in-game influence on Spamton has been left fairly vague, I can’t fully expand on this as of now, at least not as much as I’d like to. I will have to wait for the future chapters of Deltarune to release so I can piece together their dynamic, and include it into my AU’s lore.

However, I can say this for sure, he wouldn’t initially react strongly. If he can’t fully recognize the Addisons, his own brothers, even when they’re right in front of him, then simply mentioning Mike’s name or talking about him likely wouldn’t trigger much at first.

That being said, his reactions are always situational. Depending on his current state of mind, level of lucidity, and the way Mike is brought up, there could be different signs of recognition. This could range from the twitch of an eye, a frustrated grumble, or a full on meltdown.

Though, as far as we know in canon Deltarune, the Addisons probably don’t even know who Mike is. The chances of this ever occurring are low, but something similar definitely could… 📞

2. How did Spamton feel after the first few days he was tangled up, and then the first few months?

As you already know, at first he was in a complete, blind panic. This abrupt vanishing of Kris, of their SOUL, of his last chance at FREEDOM. There was ugly thrashing, frantic screams, this sudden abandonment had shattered something deep inside of him that he could never explain, or even begin to comprehend. He was off-script, and he could sense how wrong this current reality was deep in his code. Yet, despite the cold, inexplicable dread he felt, he never became fully aware of the script’s existence, and in a way, his ignorance to the diverted script was a mercy to his sanity. Of course, he’s not exactly the spitting image of well adjusted in the present, but at least he’s not… Jevil.

As the weeks he spent bound down there dragged into months, the deafening silence, the isolation, the cramped aching in his synthetic but oh-too real limbs, it all became maddening. Dull. Repetitive. And so, completely and utterly desperate, he somehow managed to alter his code, de-spawning his armor and wings in a final attempt to snap off the strings that clung to their rigid edges. But, unfortunately… this only made things so much worse.

Sure, a few of the wires snapped, but the remaining strings were now in direct contact with his synthetic skin, his body no longer protected by his armor. So, of course, when he struggled and tried to slip out, to pull himself loose from the strings’ relentless hold, they only tightened to a new extent, this time constricting and digging into his skin. The wires compressed his throat, damaging his vocal cords and causing partial paralysis. This resulted in his persistent drooling due to impaired swallowing reflexes and made speech both difficult and painful.

So… that’s what happened, but how did he feel? Well, definitely frustrated in the beginning. As far as he knew, this was just another cruel joke fate was playing on him. But, as the months went on, and on, and on, well… not taking his mental corruption into account (as that’s a whole ‘nother can of worms), I’m sure Spamton felt pretty fucking hopeless.

3. Did he scream? Did anyone hear him?

As I mentioned before, he screamed a whole lot. If the wires hadn’t taken out his vocal cords a few months in, I’m sure all his screaming would’ve eventually done the job. Though, your other question about others hearing him wasn’t something I considered. As I see it, the Basement and SNEO within it exist in an entirely different plane of reality. When the error originally occurred, it started in the Basement when the player logged off moments before the SNEO boss fight. That’s why only the Basement got softlocked, because the script altering error began in that room. That room doesn’t exist to the rest of the Cyber World until the Basement door is unlocked with a KeyGen, but it still exists to Spamton in the meantime. Meaning the sounds within it, and the frantic screams echoing through it, cannot be heard until that door is opened.

Though, the stuff about his wires being his ‘veins’… geez that’s pretty messed up!! And you guys say that I’m the sick one! Though, jokes aside, that’s an interesting take on what the wires are! And… probably not even that unlikely to be canon now that I’m really thinking about it…

4. What would SNEO do if Kris returned?

Not a hell of a lot, or maybe he’d kill them. I dunno, roll a dice!

5. Could Spamton learn to write?

Well, I’m fairly sure I posted a crappy little doodle on here ages ago of Mac trying to teach SNEO sign language, though come to think of it… how does Mac even know sign language?? Maybe he’s learning it too for him, and also trying to teach it? That’d be sweet I think? ANYWAY I’m getting off topic…

The answer is, yes! You better hope you have gigantic pencils though, and an even bigger patience… SNEO isn’t only… slower… because of trauma (though that’d probably be understandable at this point), but due to the corruption in his body from malnutrition and the error itself. He’s incredibly glitchy, and prone to some pretty severe headaches. His handwriting would probably be… illegible, but hey- maybe let him try draw something instead?

6. Why does Spamton nap all the time now that he is free? Why couldn’t he sleep while he was tangled?

Spamton definitely slept while he was tangled in the Basement, more so during the later years of his confinement. Who would want to stay awake for 3 years of nothing?

He still naps a lot for many reasons. For example, he’s not exactly in great shape. He’s malnourished, despite Darkners not needing to eat in my AU to live, they still suffer consequences when they don’t. His limbs and muscles atrophied from disuse, and aren’t very helpful for doing more than feeding himself, and engaging occasionally in whatever activity the Addisons want of him. He’s giant, sure, but unfortunately he’s also quite frail. Most of the time he naps to conserve his energy, hold himself together, so to speak.

Though sometimes, he just sleeps to avoid processing his current reality.

7. Who’s his favourite Addison, and if he had the ability to speak to them, what would he say?

His favorite Addison? Definitely Mac. Mac and him were always pals back when they were younger, despite Link being closer to him in age. Sure, Mac wasn’t there for him emotionally like Reen was, not when Spamton was feeling low or depressed, but he was always there when Spamton needed something to cheer him up. Whether that was a video game, a new hand-sewn garment, or just a few laughs, Mac was the relief he always seemed to need.

If he could say something to him? Well, that would mean he’d have to remember him! So, if he did remember him, he’d probably say:

“I’m sorry. I’m so sorry you have to see me like this.”

But then again, he’d probably say that to all four of them. Good thing he doesn’t have a great grasp on who they are yet!

[jasonsstuffiguess]

Ok, this is some heavy speculation environment, but just from this single sprite animation from the Deltarune Winter Newsletter, I feel like I can already fully visualize the opening scene of Chapter 3:

First, when you boot it up, it will open up with a black screen.

Then... a single spotlight appears, showing either Kris or Susie first, followed by a second spotlight showing the other(in whichever comes first, Susie will be in the sleeping sprite there when she's "revealed").

Then Susie and Kris wake up, only highlighted in the darkness by the spotlights(maybe some short gameplay walking sequence)

Susie goes "God damn it, where the hell are we?" Etc.

Maybe Toriel also appears in her Darkworld form.

Then as the two, or three, are confused in the darkness, a new voice appears.

A voice going "Greetings/adies and gentlefolk/etc".

Suddenly, the whole room lights up! Revealing a stage or whatever, and then enters the main villain of this chapter(Mike or Tenna or whoever), probably introduced as like a showman of sorts, saying:

"WELCOME TO THE X SHOW"

[pixeljade]

[tessenda]

I just played chapter 3 of Deltarune, and I have… thoughts.

Thoughts I can’t share with anyone cause they haven’t played yet.

But I need them out so here: spoilers ahead!

No one suspects Kris of opening the dark fountain huh?

Huh. Usually the save file has Kris’s name before we save in a chapter for the first time.

Ooo! Confirmation that the darkners can’t leave the dark world. Also, an explanation on what a dark world is. Ralsei’s messed up belief system vs Susie’s rebellious nature.

Susie once again proves she is the main character.

3D!!!!!!

Tenna, you are so extra. You even brought in another dimension. (Also Mike)

Toriel is that grand prize right?

An rpg in a rpg?

I’m so glad Lancer has time to shine! Was worried he wouldn’t show up ever again, except small cameos. (Technically he still was, but more than chapter 2)

THE PLUSHY IS CANON!

How the heck do I get past those cacti. I want that 4th key!

The couple breaks up.

✨I suck at minigames!✨

Rama.

Gambling!!!

I love the camera. Kept taking random pictures of everyone and everything.

I cackled hard when I put the bow on Susie. Did it immediately after she tricked Ralsei into smelling bad. I hope this is what Kris would’ve wanted.

Ralsei got a taste of what it’s like being player 1. Then Susie ripped it away from him.

Ocean secrets!!! Man, wish I had Noelle here. She would’ve gotten us into those hidden areas that Tenna rudely tries to keep us from. (How do you destroy that bush!!!)

World’s worst polycule.

DESS LORE!!!!!

Tenna why do you keep bring up Kris’s home life. You’re probably hurting their feelings.

Glad Ralsei had fun with the rhythm game, but please keep Susie away from it.

“Airholes” -> Yep, Tenna has Toriel.

Susie: “Man, I hate it when people keep stuff from me” Ralsei: *Nervous sweating*

Honestly, I am so glad Toriel is sleeping and barely in the chapter at all. She had her moment in Undertale. Also I called it!!! (Her dark world design is neat. Clearly a call back to her queenly status in Undertale) Tenna, I think this counts as torture. (Spamton you were right, this guy sucks)

I have no idea where the secret boss could be, all I know is the threat of Tenna overshadows them by a lot.

Horse Ralsei.

Good call, Susie. Good call.

This about the divorce isn’t it?

Glad the sneaking sections along with the cowboy sections didn’t get scrapped.

Roulxs Card changing the rules of the game in his boss fight?!?!?!! Also Lancer and Roulx bonding?!?!?! Also apparently it was Roulx’s plan all along to get those two back together, by being the worst boyfriend possible.

Shred the paperwork.

Everyone is leaving Tenna. He only has himself to blame. Or that Mailman he was talking about. (Roaring Knight or Spamton)??

Why did people start turning to statues, and why was it the chapter 3 guys and not the chapter 1 guys??? What’s with all the snow?!?!? Is it related to Dess’s disappearance?!?!?

Dess’s silhouette!!!! Oh, and Noelle’s mom’s silhouette too.

Interesting how Dess is the one who disappears first. The order of disappearances might set up a timeline.

Dang, Spamton you stole a lot from Tenna.

✨I hate Tenna’s final attack✨ (it was the reason it took me 3-4 tries to beat him)

Ralsei telling Tenna that it’s his fate to be abandoned and thrown away, really shows Ralsei’s world view on darkners.

Also, glad Ralsei is getting the spotlight this chapter when he was mostly forgotten in chapter 2.

Susie lore!!! (And once again proving she’s the main character)

Glad, that’s all settled. Now let’s close that fountain- and Tenna is dead. Your 3Dness will always be remembered.

WHO ARE YOU?! WHY ARE YOU HERE?! I AM TIRED!!!! ARE YOU A HOLIDAY?!?!

So, Kris isn’t the knight.

NOOOO! I barely survived Tenna and didn’t save!!! (Thank goodness it’s a battle we’re not supposed to win)

I’m sure there’s a peaceful solution- *Ralsei gets murdered* Violence it is.

(alternatively) Susie: We got a kill this guy. Player: Darn.

Susie once again proves she’s the main character.

Undyne!!! Her darkworld outfit is super cool. Also, here to save the day and finally have someone to fight! She also can’t deny dark worlds now!

…Rip Undyne.

The knight is definitely not Papyrus. He wouldn’t do this.

How many times do I have to repeat that Susie is the main character?

Keep in mind, Toriel is still sleeping through all of this. Did Tenna put her under a sleep spell?

So, the bunker is a dark world…

Huh, the theories were right. The whole chapter, (except one small part), was in the dark world.

Okay, Kris may not be the knight, but they’re definitely working for them.

Anyways, this chapter sucks cause there was no Berdly (joking). Going to play chapter 4 tomorrow. Then look up where the secret bosses and eggs are.

I was replaying some deltarune soundtrack in my head because I couldn’t sleep (as one does), and tell me why my brain suddenly thought that one title was "MIKE, the second TOWER, please!"

[fakeassfriends]

me, constantly: why am i so tired

the apparition of mike 'deadline' deltarune who lives in my head and calls me slurs: Have you considered it's because you sleep at ridiculous times of night?

me: no i think i just have a disease

Before I sleep, I got a lot of Deltarune thoughts I need to get out. Spoilers for Chapters 3 and 4!

So Gerson is here... are the spirits just around in the dark world or something?? Or is he somehow not dead? Either way glad to see him, but apparently Kris didn't know him before he passed.

So before I thought that it was possible that Kris would be revealed to be the Knight but now definitely not. Pretty sure it's Carol, but we'll see

Because if not then What The Fuck is up with Carol???

Poor Kris.

We got way more references to Dess in both 3 and 4 than I thought we'd get so far.

What the fuck happened with Kris at the bunker???

Both in the past and the end of chpt 3????

So I need to go back and do the minigames when I replay 3 but I did go through the Mike room when I got to the castle town in 4. So I guess Mike isn't the chapter 3 secret boss. This is how Woody Theory can still win.

I was legit surprised by how abrupt the c3 ending was. So glad that we didn't have yo wait for 4 after that.

But what was up with the opening scene of 4? A memory dream of them closing the fountain?

Loved the stuff w Kris and Susie hanging out in the beginning of c4

It was crazy hearing Kris play the piano while they had their soul out. And I was briefly stunned when Noelle mentioned how they pretended to rip their heart out when playing with her as kids. Curious about them not playing piano well while we play as them. Is it a defiant choice or are they literally unable to? And now we can control their playing for puzzles in the church dark world so...?

Who were they talking to? The Knight? Or was it *him*?

Curious about Asgore. If there were hints to him being the cleaner for the Holidays I didn't pick up on it. And it sounds like there's something else goin on w him too.

I was very excited when they brought Tenna to the Mettaton ghost, and he had that line about the music videos awakening something in him.

So it seems like Ralsei's having an arc. With Susie talking about how Darkners shouldn't be forgotten, the scenes in the castle, then the line to Susie after healing Kris.

The music has been fucking amazing as always

Loving all the designs amd art. It all looks so good!

Love the humor. Nothing hits quite like it. Even the stupidest stuff I find absolutely hilarious. The tone,.timing, 'delivery' - magnifique

Krisuselle lesbian throuple when?

Anyways I love this game so much. Definitely top 10 probably top 5. Who knows, when it's done it could even be my all-time favorite game. It certainly has that potential. (If woody theory is real im giving it every game of the year award)

[hall0wedwyrm]

okay watching the Deltarune trailer back again and i just have to point this out

The only lightworld segment we see.. is Sans in his shop.

For chapter 2, showing the Queen makes sense, but prominently showing Spamton??? and not really anything else????? not even cyber city or anything???

this is just so weird to me. I know this isnt a definitive trailer (like a full game trailer, we'll get that when the game is complete obviously) and its just to showcase the release of 3+4, but it just makes me think that we might not have seen the last of Spamton if hes so prominently in the trailer (AND in the newsletter).

also the 3+4 'waiting' reveals are so cool but. Chapter 1 is King, 2 is Queen, 3 is Tenna/Mike/whoever the TV is and 4 is.... a chase sequence??? Chptr 4 is so mysterious and being really hidden from us its so insane. but i do think its going to be in the church, with all of the imagery and the window sillohuettes and the floor too... it just makes sense to me and also ive alway's like that theory

anyway these are just some thoughts before i sleep lol its so late for me i gotta go
