INTRODUCTION
Welcome to Devblog 2. This devblog will cover many different things, the first of which is our first ever look at gameplay!

Please enjoy this small preview. In addition to this, you can listen to Wing’s theme, “Bona Fide”, as heard in the video, here; (YouTube, SoundCloud)
As shown in the video, Vesper is reunited with Noelle quite quickly, and they’re both introduced to Wing. I originally wanted to demonstrate combat in this video, but it’s still not ready to show off in full. A lot of the battle animations have yet to be completed. This preview video is only a taste of what’s to come in the game’s eventual demo…
RESURGENT STAR
In this section I will discuss more details about the AU itself. While Resurgent Star was originally envisioned as a swap AU, it’s evolved past that to become its own thing in a way. The main characters, Vesper, Noelle, and Wing (Sans) share parallels with Deltarune’s main cast, but they are different in their own ways. There are many new characters in the cast that have yet to be revealed, as well. Most of the Dark World bosses are original to Resurgent Star, and aren’t based on UT/DR characters. Two exceptions to this will be seen in the first two dark worlds…
THE GOLDEN SANDS
I want to talk a bit more about the first dark world; The Golden Sands. While the main inspiration is Ancient Egypt, we’ve done our own take on it, so you might see some unexpected surprises here and there. There are two main landmarks in the Golden Sands; The town, “Jadara’s Veil”, and the Pyramid. The town will be where you can buy useful items and interact with the people of the Golden Sands, while the Pyramid is where you will end your journey in the first dark world, and seal the fountain. More will be revealed about these areas in the future.
I’d also like to reveal a main character appearing in The Golden Sands, Asriel.
This is a new take on Asriel, as you will see in Chapter 1’s story. You can listen to Asriel’s theme, “Lonely Prince”, here; (YouTube, SoundCloud)
There are a few more characters that will appear in The Golden Sands, but they will be revealed at a later date. For now, here are a few screenshots of the Dark World.
NEXT
So, as part of these new reveals, we’re opening the game’s public Discord server today. The Discord will occasionally get some exclusive reveals or previews, so be sure to check it out!
Join here:
Progress on the game has been going well! A lot of assets are complete for The Golden Sands, including music, and about a 1/3rd of the rooms are complete. Battle animations and enemy attacks still need to be completed before we can show that off. We’re planning to make more frequent, smaller posts showing off the game in the coming months, so keep an eye out.
In addition: We’re still looking for people to join the dev team! You can apply here.
