After a long period of declining activity, the development team for Undertale: the Otherground has decided to put the project on an indefinite hiatus. While this is by no means a certain cancellation, disorganization and lack of direction has left project development stunted. This announcement is not an easy one to make- many within our team are personally devoted to the project, the team, and the community, and long to see it succeed. But with organization and morale issues long plaguing UTTO’s progression, it has become clear that some announcement is necessary- the team is owed decision and the community some long-denied clarity. It is with our deepest apologies that this message is written- and our deepest hopes that you will follow Othertales into the future, whatever it may hold.
[IMPORTANT UPDATE] Hiatus. (It's still not over, for the record.)

EVENTLOG: Welcome, Burke Day 2021!
Happy birthday, Sunny & Renee Burke- and happy 4th anniversary to the team! We've come a long way since the reboot about 2 years ago. :^)
In celebration of today, we have a small event going on! Read below for more!
MICROLOG: Oops! I forgot to show off the map we devs made, drawn by LukeWarmGuy! This is Mongale Island, AKA what the title is referring to as the "Otherground". This is where the events of the game will unfold. Hope you like it, and huge thanks to Luke!
Discord Update: I'm on track to getting back in, but Discord keeps passing down the processing job, so it's naturally taking forever. They're doing their job, which is something to celebrate regarding their reputation.
Have some cute art for the server :)
forget the professionalism, it's 4am and i almost fell out my chair when i saw this thank u all so much for 2k we're so close to the proof demo it's exciting just a few more things to finish up and we're ready to drop i hope it'll be worth the wait :^)
DEVLOG: Happy late birthday, Undertale! We're going to show off a little something you might have already seen in our Discord, but for those who haven't, we hope you're excited. :^) Take a look below!
MICROLOG: Here's a special treat for 2k followers! How about a quick peek at our intro? We don't have it programmed in yet, and we only have a few slides finished thanks to ArtemArt as well as myself.
Hope you like them! :^) Avast the Eimmet Sea, 2XXX...
It's been a long, long time. After many years of sheer development hell, the game is being canceled- but, if you don't mind, please read the attached article. Thank you all for the memories and experiences, you all really changed my life.
MICROLOG: Just barely missed our shot. Don't worry, though! Everything except programming is ready to go, aside from a few lines in writing that need fixing and an optional track we wanna add. :^)
We should be able to drop super early in July, I promise!
It's been five years; half a decade.
It's late at night as I'm writing this, but I'm still in disbelief that Undertale turned 5 today.
I wished we could've released UTTO today as a gift to Undertale & its fans, but we'll keep working hard until then. :')
MICROLOG: A feature we've promised for a while and can finally confirm it coming: ambient creatures! As Louis and friends travel Mongale, there'll be small creatures that will hop, crawl, and fly around in each and every environment. Here's some examples!
