November 2021 Devlog: New Boss Theme + Other Tidbits

Seasons greetings!

Boy has it been a while since the last time we posted a devlog. Sorry about that! We are seriously running low on content we can show you all without spoiling too much, BUT! We are currently working towards a much BIGGER announcement that will occur next year! In the meantime, we managed to scrounge up a fresh release to tie you over :)

Before that, however, the general update!

We are currently knee deep in the neutral final boss. It's taking much longer than expected because it has slowly grown into one of the most ambitious parts of the game. We believe it will be a standout moment from what we've made so far and the concepts of what's to come!

Other content we've added into the game since the last devlog include all of the fourth area's enemies and bosses which should be a lot of fun to battle. We also did final planning for the larger story beats we will tackle in the pacifist endgame - creating this timeline of events to make sure our plot is strong and in-line with the lore of UNDERTALE (censored for spoilers).

So anyway... Deltarune Chapter 2 am I right?

In 2018, we talked about how Chapter 1 might affect UTY. For 2, its incredible presentation inspired us to go through our game and give it a nice sheen all around - from attack flair to cutscene pacing and delivery. However, first and foremost we are trying to be a followup to UNDERTALE so don't expect a bunch of Deltarune mechanics to sneak their way in. If they do, we planned for those mechanics before Chapter 1 ;)

...Seriously, there are a strange amount of features that have overlapped lol.

Now, who likes boss themes? This track has been a favorite among the team and beta testers for a while so we thought we should let you all hear it!
