  • Funny thing

    Actually, deltarune was planned even before undertale was. Undertale was like a prologue to deltarune. Also, in deltarune, there is a gaster Easter egg in which “Dark, darker, and yet darker. Photon readings negative. This next experiment is very, very, interesting” in Wingdings is shown on the screen. This is probably a reference to dark fountains. So, in summary, Toby fox is too good at game making.
