October Devlog - No, there's no reason why the banner is more rendered than usual


General Progress as of 17/10/2025

Work has been progressing smoothly, mostly on two fights and the paths between them.

A mini-gimmick has been set-up for one of them, here's a small peek:

I'm also excited to report that the chess puzzle is now fully functional and less dumb as a system. It will be more used throughout the game.

Btw what happened to some tracks on Youtube?

I watched that hour long Shayy interview with Materia to understand what happened with Undertale Yellow, and long story short:

  1. Youtube tries to "help" you copyright your music by checking if other people uploaded videos containing your music

  2. There's no clear difference between Toby Fox's Undertale music and your remix to the automated checks

  3. Youtube might mark other people's videos as "your music", and either you or Materia must step in to resolve it

The advice to get around this mess is to just not upload music to Youtube unless you buy a license from Distrokid or something similar to do it for you. I'll probably get round to doing that when the game is in more of a mature state. In the mean time, any track with Undertale motifs is not going to be public on Youtube.
