Hey! Were back! We have a lot some stuff to get through so lets get started!
A New Face?
Yep! Let me introduce you to a new UTBB character; Princess(?) Emily Emerald!
Emerald is a young spider monster (13 years old) that you will be familied with in the demo and through out the story. She lives in the Ruined sewers with the rest of her sibling, maybe you'll even get to meet a few of them
(Art work made by Hollow)
Progress!
[ Coding ]
As of writing this, our custom base UT engine is almost complete! We only need to work on a few thing regarding the battle & overworld system. After that we will start implementing some changes such as adding out reworked magic system and a few new special changes.
Then we'll get to work on rooms, tilesets, and backgrounds!
[ Music ]
We've been releasing a few tracks on our game page and YouTube! You should go check them out when you have the time. Our composers work hard on every OST they make and we hope you enjoy listening to them just has much as the team!

We only have a small amount of OSTs at the moment, but were trying to chip away at at it step by step! We don't want to overwhelm anybody here since most of the team have their own projects they have to work on as well.
[ Writing ]
As of now the demo as been fully written out! With the addition to new team members and the director reaching out to different writers in and out of the community, the game has under go some major rewrites which were heavily needed. The rest of the game has been perfectly outlined and I'm currently halfway through the Geno/No Mercy script for the Snowden section. However, writing for the rest of the Ruins after the demo on pacifist and neutral runs is still a work in progress
The plan is to work on neutral scripts after Pacifist and Geno scripts are done. Just to make things a little easier on the teams main writer (Skill issue we know lol). Also, I am glad to say that all of UTBBs main cast as been fully made! Yes we still need to work on their section/area script but like I said before, those have been neatly outlined.

Gamepage & Social Changes;
We've updated the gamepage a bit more. We've added a features, Mechanics, and a special thanks!
We felt like the special thanks was long over due. These projects helped inspire UTBB and it's only fair that they get the credit they deserve.
[Cancelled] Undertale: The Otherground by @poody_blue
Undertale Kindred Spirits (Fangame) by
DELTARUNE: Broken Destiny (Fangame) by
Undertale: True Genocide (Fangame) by
Undertinge (Fangame) by @TeamTinge
BLIND DETERMINATION/Grimmstale (Interactive Comic) by Blind Kite
thank you @poody_blue ,@PurrSum (+ The entire UTKS Crew), @Starlightshore ,@CrystalZeroChaos ,@TeamTinge ,@souptaels , Blind Kite, and everyone in the Othertale/Otherrune Community. You are the people who helped inspire this project and I can't wait for you all to see what we've been planning.
Make sure to go check these projects and their creators out! These are the very projects & people that inspired Undertale: Brave Beginnings in the first place so it would be amazing if you went over there and showed them some love and support!
Social Change
As you may have noticed, UTBB has been freely promoting other projects and as been collaborating with other creators. While we are still participating in these collabs we have decided to take a step back in promoting other creators/project. In all honesty, that wasn't supposed to happen. You see, out director is really proud of the following he and this project has gained, and thought that he was "popular" enough to promote lesser known projects or projects just starting out in development. And as you can see he's been promoting a lot of projects. More so it's starting to feel like that's all he's doing publicly and fears that it may be a bit to much.
So with that being said, we will be taking a step back from the promotion of other projects after this dev log. However! We will leave a list (now) of projects that Reed planned to promote but never had the time until now and won't be put up in promotion ever again (unless super big news comes out like the demo/full release or it being cancelled).
Undertale Brave Faith by @TeamDarkLegend
Undertale: Bold & Benevolent by Team Papya and @the_fluffernutter
Undertale Ivy's Justice by @TeamUTIJustice
UNDERSWAP: ECHOED by @_pancakez
Undertale ICEBOUND by @LucanaDLL & @__b
Undertale ALTERATION by @Pixel-Icon15
We know most of these projects are already popular but Team beginnings still wanted to show their support!
What To Expect Next Time?
As you can see, the game page has been getting a few tweaks as of late. We've updated the description and more promotion art should be coming soon! We will also no longer be giving monthly dev logs (Not like we did before lol) and will only post when we have more content to show.
The End. . . ?
No, no no!!! The end of the Dev log, not the project! Thank you all for taking the time to read through this. I hope you have a wonderful day/nigh/afternoon wherever you are! I guess this is the end of the dev log. See you all later!
