    Testing out new felt pens

    My mom saw it and said it's "like Heroes" (which in Poland = Heroes of Might and Magic III, unless specified otherwise). You can tell she doesn't consume much fantasy media...

    UTDR Newsletter Summary - 9th Anniversary

    Interview with Sans (https://toby.fangamer.com/interviews/nine/)

    • It's supposed to be about the number 9
    • It soon gets derailed into the whole cast arguing about the lore of the "7 8 9" pun
    • The last two lines are in binary. Sans' is "7 8 9"; Papyrus' response translates to "SANS!!!"

    9th Anniversary Kitchen Set

    • Fangamer made a [promotional video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k0i2Wa-oMhU) for it
    • It consists of
      • (Toby's request #1) A Toriel-shaped oven mitt (it might be too flammable to be legally an oven mitt, though...) and a matching potholder. (https://www.fangamer.com/collections/undertale/products/toriel-oven-mitt-potholder?utm_source=newsletter&utm_campaign=ut9)
      • (Toby's request #2) An Annoying Dog-themed cup (with the dog inside, at the bottom). (https://www.fangamer.com/collections/undertale/products/annoying-dog-mug?utm_source=newsletter&utm_campaign=ut9)
      • A plate which has Papyrus with spaghetti on it. (https://www.fangamer.com/collections/undertale/products/papyrus-undertale-spaghetti-plate?utm_source=newsletter&utm_campaign=ut9)
      • A Sans fight cup. Some parts are transparent (Sans' eye, your SOUL, and some bones & blasters), so their color depends on the liquid inside. Toby asked everyone to be careful with the AU-making power we've been given. (https://www.fangamer.com/collections/undertale/products/sans-glass?utm_source=newsletter&utm_campaign=ut9)
      • A dish with Toriel holding pie on it. (https://www.fangamer.com/collections/undertale/products/toriel-pie-dish?utm_source=newsletter&utm_campaign=ut9)
      • A purple (the same shade as Toriel's robe) apron with the Delta Rune on it. (https://www.fangamer.com/collections/undertale/products/toriel-apron-undertale?utm_source=newsletter&utm_campaign=ut9)
    • In the future, there will also be salt & pepper shakers shaped like Sans' and Papyrus' heads. (https://www.fangamer.com/collections/undertale/products/sans-papyrus-salt-shaker?utm_source=newsletter&utm_campaign=ut9)

    Deltarune Progress Update

    • The new Gamemaker function still has some issues, so the fanbase mass testing on CH1&2 will be delayed.
    • CH3 is currently being checked by 8-4 (the Japanese translation company) to see if everything displays correctly.
    • Beginning of "professional testing" on PC is planned for mid-October.
    • CH4's content is done, there's only bugfixing, translation, and the console port left.
    • Everyone who's not working on these is moving to CH5.

    End

    There's an extra, mysterious mini-letter: https://toby.fangamer.com/interviews/letter/.

    The theme of Genocide 9's for this newsletter is fun. I didn't know "sic" can be a verb until this lol. I love that everyone's opinions on 7 8 9 reflect their in-game beliefs:
    • Papyrus thinks 7 was misled (belief in Geno Frisk)
    • Alphys tries to justify it as a necessary course of action (Amalgamates)
    • Toriel disagrees with her (firing Alphys in the True Pacifist epilogue) and says 7 is weak and duty isn't an excuse to hurt others (her opinions on Asgore)
    • Undyne just wants to wreck all the numbers (= her approach to SOUL-gathering & life in general)
    The extra letter at the end is also interesting. I'm pretty sure the "best friend" being described is Chara (the 9 theme, power, mentions of flowers and creepy faces), which would make Flowey/Asriel the author (additionally supported by the "nothing can hurt" part and the idea of losing the ability to make new good memories if you have too many)

    UTDR Newsletter Summary - Summer 2024

    Progress Update

    • CH3&4 are almost done (and longer than CH1&2).
    • Part of the team is moving on to CH5.
    • The release is "still far"
      • The team wants to release the game for consoles and in Japanese at the simultaneously with the English PC version
      • There are more details (about 5 things they need to do before the release) at https://toby.fangamer.com/updates/quests/
        • They're testing a new function for Gamemaker. In a few weeks, they'll release a version of CH1&2 for the community to test.
        • They need to test the game for console-specific bugs and other differences and update the game for each console's rules/standards.
        • The Japanese text is essentially ready to be put in (except any lines they forgot to send to the localization team). However, the "location and timing" still need to be adjusted.
        • The game has to be bug-tested. They have hired a company to playtest the game.
        • There are also other things left: age rating, the OST, making the trailer and releasing materials (and possibly more).
    • The release schedule for CH5 and beyond will be "a lot smoother"

    Hololive Collab

    • Toby and Camellia made a song for Houshou Marine: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QfGuQELt1Tk
    • They were sent Megalovania as a reference for the song.
