Hey Deltarune Fandom

I know its 3am as I wright this but I think I found something online that might be important- or at least, be something to consider- food for thought and all that jazz-

you see, I was scrolling thought reddit when I came upon a particular post...

it starts of seeming very normal, right? I mean, it's just your average detarune fan asking about equipment advice, right?

but.. somethings... off, to say the least......

Not only is the wording weird when talking about Spamton, (with the phrasing of "Spamton dude" being particularly odd, as to get to Spamton's shop, you need to get fairly familiar with him and his character, but this user seems to be acting like this is their first time meeting him.) But Spamton HIMSELF seems to look... Different than usual. Or, at lease, different than his usual shop sprite that is...

and I was not alone on this sentiment, as the comments noticed too!

which leads to wonder....

... yeah, that...

To which OP provided an... Interesting answer....

D-.... Didn't have the money? But, deltarune is free game? Or, at least, Chapter's 1 and 2 are...

you see, a while back, Toby mention online that Chapters 3, 4, and 5 would all be released together, and, unlike the first two, cost money. (or as a certain salesman would phrase it, cost some [[Sweet, Sweet KROMER]]!!!)

Not only that, but its kinda ironic that this user pirated a copy of a free game, and have the one character who has a history with shady links (or in other words, [[Hyperlink Blocked]]) be the one who's changed... Almost as if this bootleg game has its own bootleg of Spamton... The one character who literally tries to be a bootleg of ANOTHER character in-universe. *Cough cough* Swatch- *Cough cough*

But this also leads to question... are there any other differences in the game? I mean, it is a pirated game, surely there has to be some other differences from the original game other than some seemingly random shop sprite of spamton, right?

luckily, I was not the only one who was curious about this and a user by the name of kuro50 ask OP to quote:

To which OP responded:

how... convenient.....

I mean- don't get me wrong- I get that feeling not having any program to record with (though than again OBS Studio exist)- but even still, all of this seems a little bit too, odd to just let off as something "normal"...

but, than again, its not like there's anything necessary wrong about it either, right? I mean, sure, it weird that someone pirated a free game, but, maybe they're just some gullible kid online?

...Except, a user by the name of ThePotatoPerson510 pointed out a few striking things...

And then... it all stared to click...

I went to check the profile and, just as ThePotatoPerson510 had said,

"u/ThatDudeTobias, Cake day December 27, 2022, made 12 hours ago..." the same hour as the spamton post was made... almost as if the account was made just so they could post this.... (Note: the previous image in this post of the spamton post says it was made 10 hours ago. This time gap is because I have been writing this post for 2 hours straight now- coming onto 3 hours- as such, I give you this screenshot showing both the post and the profile, and thus, showing they were in fact made in the same hour-)

MID WRIGHTING UPDATE: It seems as if there WAS a time gap between the two post, as its 5:24am and I just took THIS screenshot showing the time gap. Take this how you will I suppose ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Now, about the name... It seem kinda... on the nose, to say the least. I mean, Toby, Tobias, seems a little to similar, right? But, at the same time, knowing Toby, he would be the type to use a seemingly obvious while still not TOO obvious name to fuck with us (he DOSE have a history with being a troll when it comes to his games ¬_¬||)

Also, looking back at the spamton image and comparing it to the name "Tobias", they both share one thing in common... They're both SIMILAR to their originals, to the point where you can tell what they're based off of, but, somewhat off...

As for the one other post on the account, well...

its..

... A comment on MeIRL?

Well, what's the original post?

A..... Video of some guy walking up the stairs, only to keep looping up the same steps, unable to get to the end?

Well, that's... anticlimactic..... Sooo.... Is this just some random account then? Was all of this just for nothing? Was it all red hearings in the end? Well, that's what I thought..

For you see, I realized something....

Toby Fox is a well-known fan of anime, but, not just any anime.... specifically, JOJO'S BIZARRE ADVENTURE. How do we know this? Well, in undertale, there is an item in the game called a Punch Card

When this card is used in battle, it says, "OOOORAAAAA!!! You rip up the punch card! Your hands are burning!" This increases your attack. "ORA" Is a common phrase screamed in JOJO' when one of the Jostar's are attacking.

Not only that, but in deltarune, main antagonist of chapter 2 is Queen.

her battle theme? Attack of the Killer Queen

Killer Queen is the stand of Yoshikage Kira. The main antagonist of JOJO'S BIZARRE ADVENTURE: Diamond is Unbreakable. Which is the 4th Chapter of the series.

So, what dose ALL of this have to do with the video "Tobias" commented on? Well, you see, in JOJO'S BIZARRE ADVENTURE: Stardust Crusaders, when Polnareff, one of the main protagonist, tries to walk up the stairs to face DIO, the main antagonist, he finds himself in the same loop as the man in the video. Continuously walking up the same set of stares, unable to reach the end.

Meaning, the video that "Tobias", or, as we presume, Toby commented on was in fact...

A JOJO REFFERANCE, AND THUS, MAKES PERFICT SENCE AS TO WHY HE WOULD COMMENT ON IT

...... And so with that last tidbit out of the way, we are left with 3 conclusions that we can come to... 1. This "Tobias" is actually Toby Fox teasing us about Chapter 3 and or some other upcoming scheme of his he has up his sleaves.

2. This "Tobias" is actually Toby Fox just fucking with us

and 3. This is some third party not affiliated with Toby but still making something and teasing it (possibly and ARG or something of sorts) .... That or I've just spent over 3 hours of my life typing this up only for it to be a shitpost by Temmie or something :/

either way its 6:41am as I type this and I have not slept all night so I hope you liked this deep dive analysis into this possibly important reddit account that could hold significant lore for the upcoming chapters of deltarune and if you'll excuse me I'm going to go collapse on my couch for the rest of the day :) have a wonderful time zone <3

#toby fox i swear- #if this is you fucking with us i will sue- #for emotional abuse and mind fuckery that is- #seriously why must you be like this- #i just wanted to scroll reddit in peace- #not worrying about secret lore drops from estranged reddit accounts- #god dammit toby #yall better not let this flop- #it is 5am #i have not slept ALL NIGHT #I AM STAYING UP JUST SO I CAN WRIGHT THIS #DO NOT LET THIS FLOP I BEG- #toby fox #deltarune #deltarune thoughts #deltarune theory #deltarune chapter two #deltarune chapter 2 #deltarune spoilers #spamton

GUYS I JUST HAD THE BEST DREAM IN MY LIFE FR FR

So if you don't know yet (you must do) i'm obssesed with miracle musical and undertale

WELL GUESS WHAT

I DREAMED ABOUT A FANGAME OF UNDERTALE X HAWAII PART II

it was hyper mega sad

And hyper mega delulu

I remember a cutscene like the end of the Asriel fight where he tells how was life with chara and him (in yellow filter) but with Simon and Stella saying something like "im too insane to remember not to remember you" and depressing stuff like that

Also, at the starts of dialogue instead of an asterisk it was an Stella octongula, neat detail my brain made, huh

Anyways, here's what it looked like (except more beautiful)

#undertale #undertale pacifist #simon hawaii part ii #simon #stella octangula #hawaii part ii #hawaii #joe hawley #sweet dreams in sea mayor #the mind electric #miracle musical #tally hall #toby fox #cutscenes #illustration #i swear to god im going to cry #thats one of my favorite dreams and now i want an undertale fangame with miracle musical😭 #im eating this concept right now

Toby Fox does not hate his fans. Toby Fox just likes to psychologically torture his fans.

Me: you should draw something you like that’s not Deltarune related. Maybe like all of the other things you’re passionate about.

I'm sick of people still spreading misconceptions about the Earthbound Halloween Hack, like, it's 2024, please actually understand the plot before making comments about it

Hello everyone, it's your favorite Toby Fox Loremaster Lolmeowaj (aka mew). If you guys did not know I'm a mod/co-owner for the unofficial Brandish fanclub discord server. I won't get too much into things to not cause drama, but we've had an influx of memebers recently who just... don't understand the plot of the Halloween Hack and generally have a lot of disrespect towards Toby's old works...

I completely understand the Earthbound Halloween Hack is a confusing story, I am the first admit this, particularly it's ending (I don't think the ending is bad, just noting it's confusing to understand at first). However, implying Toby was somehow lazy or extremely incapable at the time due to the story having a few short comings I find extremely disrespectful.

Firstly, if you look at his later works post EBHH (ie UT & DR) he's clearly reflected on many aspects that didn't work in EBHH to make his works better. While I don't think criticisms of EBHH is a bad thing, I think it's ridiculous how many mean and aggressive critiques of the game that I see. Like. He's already proven he can improve from it, like, looking at EBHH to begin with is honestly mostly a curiosity thing... Second of all (if you'd bother to read his makingof.html you would know) EBHH was made using PKHack, which, for those who aren't in the know, this rom hacking program is EXTREMELY hard to use, I mean, consider the fact half of AWQ's plot is about how hard it is to program in PKHack. It's so bad in fact if you go to the PKHack board on starmen.net now of days it specifically says to not use PKHack and to use Coil Snake instead. To say Toby was lazying while making EBHH he was most definitely not.

Final point (and I hate I have to say this) do not make fun of Toby's old works. Like maybe a joke or two or something like that, but people genuinely bashing on his old works in a disrespectful manner are the reason why people like me who want to look at his old works out of curiosity and love for his works. Yes. His starmen.net works are not the best, but he was in middle school and highschool when he made all of these works, to been aggressive towards them in their pitfalls is disrespectful and you should be ashamed of yourself if you say those things.

Anyways I may make my own video going into historical contexts and analysis of EBHH cause I love it that much but here's some videos I really love to get ya'll started:

#undertale #deltarune #toby fox #earthbound halloween hack #earthbound #I swear to god if I see one more person dissing on the Halloween hack #Bro did and allnighter on his BIRTHDAY to finish it #Like... andounts' magicant and physiological analysis of his character is the whole point of the plot #To think its boring is so stupid... #Like did you actually play the game???? #I hate the internet sometimes #Youtube

[obsessivefangirl]

Undertale fans seem okay but then you admit you bend canon or explore a different side of someone or just have hcs that they don't have and they froth at the mouth because HOW DARE you say character a is adhd in your mind how DARE you canon diverge and have Sans remember resets (you're disgusting) how DARE you use a canon line in the game how DARE you interpret something other than I did

#yall are snobbish asses i swear to all things good -_- #my ramblings #undertale #tip: some writers cant write characters like they are! they're still allowed to write them! deal!! #just because i cant replicate Toby Fox's work doesnt mean i cant do anything with the guys #anyway queueing this so no one knows who I'm talking about

[depthecho]

does anyone have anything i can write music to

#music #film score #composer #musician #film #game music #i swear i'm not toby fox

[1tsteatime]

Does anyone ever get the urge to abandon this timeline and go on an otherworldly adventure with zany friends and scheming characters and jokes along the way, while an overarching plot forces you to decide where your morals lie as your very will is put to the test?

So does anyone ever get the urge to just experience Undertale?

#undertale #deltarune #toby fox #i swear to god #the grip that this series has on my soul is ridiculous #sometimes you don’t want to study #you just want to do a found family speedrun

Happy 2 Year Anniversary to The Chara Timeline ✨

I FINALLY made drawing references for you guys, yippie!✨

It’s wild how long I’ve been working on this comic without reference sheets. I’m never that consistent with my art style, so I figured it was a waste of time 🫥💀😔 this is my first full comic okay…

Thoughts and Feelings About the Comic Below ❤️💖💕💞

Wow. It’s been 2 years??? I thought I would be done with this comic in 2 months! I don’t know whether to feel worried or accomplished!!

(With months between each update, I understand why it’s been 2 years. I’m a slow writer and artist and well- many things have come up in my life that had to come first, like my sisters wedding! 💞 and college 😅)

I want to thank my family and friends (WHO DO NOT READ THIS COMIC- THANK GOD) 💕 AND I want to THANK YOU! The readers! 💐💐

You guys are relentless! I’m as impatient as traffic and yet you guys wait for weeks or months at a time for like 4 pages?! You guys don’t even complain!!! I truly want to thank you all for that ❤️ it helps me so much. Being busy and getting burnt out are common and it helps me feel relaxed that i'm not on a timer. Literally tho- you guys keep this comic chugging I swear. Tysm 💐

Unorganized rambling about the comic ahead :) ⭐️🔥

—

My feelings with this comic are actually so complicated. On one hand I hate looking at my older art because GOD IT LOOKS SO OFF I want to stab it, and then on the other hand I am so so proud of myself for even continuing it this far. Ngl the weird route has been one of my favorite parts of this comic. It took me FOREVER to figure out an ending, but damn do I still get chills >:) hehe.

I’m still miffed that I named this project “Deltarune: The Chara Timeline” I could have gone for something so much COOLER. Doesn’t help I use like 7 different titles for it either. We got Deltarune the Chara timeline, Deltarune chara timeline, THE Chara timeline, chara timeline, Ct??? Man,,, I’m crazy. I take after my family so hard. We have 3 names for each of our dogs 💀.

Comic/Animation Tip i have learned. It is VERY GOOD to make the character relatively simple in design. Shape language is also super important, ((but I never really got around to doing that before I was half way through the comic, woops.)) These things can make ur process go by so much faster. This whole comic has been a HUGE learning curve. LIKE OH MY GOD. I had to learn how to draw backgrounds, write dialogue, plan a story, learn how to draw fast and draw noses (which god damn I really still can’t). And I had to learn how the heck to squeeze art into a tiny page and make it not look grainy. It's intense!

Anyways.... this has been such an awesome opportunity! Thanks Toby Fox!

I totally ran out of “art time” for my iPad and wanted to finish this today. So it’s a bit rushed. I’ll add weapons and possibly the other characters later :)

Oh shi- I forgot to add this grainy image of the next few pages lmao

#chara is literally built like a rectangle. idk why ive never noticed that #a thick greenbean #and Asriel is kinda half and half when it comes to standing on his toes or regular foot. He has a more top heavy approach to his balance #bread #undertale #deltarune chara timeline #my art #chara #asriel #character sheets #character references #art #deltarune #happy 2 year anniversary!!!! #college chara #college asriel #darkworld

Okay so..... Scarlet/Violet hot takes

Nemona is the best of the 3, sorry arven i love you and you had the most emotional story line but nemona was just pure fun.

Tulip is the best of the new gym leaders, girlie pop serves so much cvnt and i love it. Like going thru the game i knew some lil gay had a hand in this but when she came up and said we slayed.... dead. Larry is a stupidly close second tho, the fact it took us this long to have a normal gym leader that was a monotone office man character is criminal but atleast he was good.

I SWEAR IF THE DLC DOES NOT INVOLVE GOING BACK IN TIME TO SAVE THE PROFESSORS I WILL SCREAM, WE NEED ARVEN TO BE HAPPY AND FOR US TO HAVE MOMMY AND DADDY BACK. The fact they have given us the HOTTEST professors and they are dead..... like the girls and the gays are suffering....

Speaking of DLC, idk what they are gonna do in terms of enviroment and vibe because area zero.... AREA ZERO. The music and just everything is so amazing. The battle music and area music are easily the 2nd and 3rd best tracks in the game.

On the topic of music tho Penny's battle theme is the BEST track in a pokemon game. Toby fox really put his whole pussy into this OST. Its giving cascade/ early 2000s euro dance and it goes so well with her hackerman vibe.

#pokemon scarlet and violet #pokemon #pokemon violet #pokémon scarlet #nemona #arven #pokemon penny #pokemon tulip #pokemon larry #i love these games so much
