Now that a little time has passed, I thought I'd talk about my work on Deltarune Chapters 3 & 4!

While Chapter 2 released in September of 2021, I actually started work on Chapter 3 a couple months before. My main responsibility for 3 was Mr. Tenna's Marvelous Mystery Board. We did a lot of iteration before landing on having full control over the player and being able to explore all of the Desert Board and Kodakoda Island. Making a game within a game with characters in the game above that game talking to each other and reacting and controlling their players was a hell of a challenge, but I think we pulled it off. I wonder what the world record for the Lawnmower game is.

I was also responsible for a bunch of the Teevie World overworld sections, one of my favorite being the stealth section where you make inadvertantly make friends, and also get to meet Goulden Son. I'm so glad Toby decided moving slow sucked, it made the stealth more of a rhythmic running section than a plodding Metal Gear segment.

For Chapter 4 I was primarily responsible for the first and second versions of the dark world, and some of the third. After all the wild stuff we did in 3, it was a joy to climb back into the comforting arms of making Deltarune's overworld sections. I learned a lot while working on it, improving my workflow and finding new ways to make cool stuff. The Chapter 4 dark world also got a lot of iteration, making sure it was fun to explore and well-paced. I think we all nailed it.

The last four years have been a lot. I lost both of my parents, we came out of a pandemic, and the internet has become an even more divisive and miserable place. I'm so thankful that during these difficult years I've gotten the opportunity to contribute to something that has brought so many people so much joy, and I look forward to spending more time doing the same.

And hey, if you don't know who I am, find me on Bluesky or pick up some of my games. Thanks!

Well, looks like everyone's put the pieces together... Nobody's very happy about it, though.

Also yeah I know this was supposed to be an ask section but I turned off asks for a section to keep the flow better. There's going to be a LOT of asks next section, though.

Kris "very complicated feelings about being a human and other humans" Dreamurr VS The seven (eight if you count Chara) Collage buddies.

i might (emphasis on might, my life is becoming busy soon and idk if ill have a lot of time to draw) draw this in the future but right now i would like to say, i personally think kris being uncomfortable about seeing pictures of other humans absolutely comes from a place of species/gender dysphoria as a nonbinary person (like, they look them up on the internet and think, “when i grow up i have to look like either an [image of adult human female] or an [image of adult human male]?? this sucks”. or the two types of discomfort are intertwined because sexual dimorphism in monsters seems a lot more non-existent or at least imperceptible to humans, and kris wishes they were that). they probably dont have a lot of opinions about other humans as people.

i cant say how its like for them with the 6 other humans because theyre still a work in progress, but i like to imagine kris finds frisk and chara a lot easier to interact with because the two are also nonbinary and serve genderless swag, so its like a, “im not alone?” moment for them (which is also why in my silly comic i kinda drew kris being like O_O upon seeing the two in their own subtle way)

having been unsure abt humans their whole life they may find themself strangely quickly becoming comfortable around those two.

I tried pop art....ngl i love drawing arts like this

[spiderybobcat]

I love the headband theory, so I like to think the reason Ralsei keeps his hands behind his back is because Kid Kris would draw their monstersona the same way. Hands are hard to draw.
