Hey there, everyone!
You may have noticed a lack of screenshots and new information lately. This is sadly because my wifi has stopped working for a while, making it rather difficult to work on the game. Therefore, sadly, the next update won't release as soon as I'd like it to.
In other news, I realized I only described my plans for the next update on the Discord Server and in-game. So, I'd like to give all of you a quick overview of what is planned foe next update. Keep in mind that plans are always subject to change and some of the things may not exactly appear as described in the actual update. Furthermore I won't be revealing everything that said update will contain.
Firstly and probably the biggest news, this update will not replace the latest version of MTO and rather counts as a seperate game. This is because this update will be a complete reboot of MTO, with a new plot (yes, the old game had a plot at one point), more polish, new mechanics and new areas. Also there'll be an actual goal. I know, having a goal in a video-game sounds crazy, right?
Let's start of with one of your guys' favorite topics.
Skins
We will be removing a few skins that we didn't like as much for various reasons. There will be a few new skins, but don't worry, there'll still be your precious meme-skins. Every skin that will remain in the game will also be completely polished and fixed in every possible way, so stay tuned for that.
By far one of the biggest additions to the skin-system in MTO will be our new skin-menu. I won't be revealing much yet, but the final version will look better by a lot.
There's an even bigger addition though, and trust me, you're gonna love this change and none of you are gonna get upset because of this change and leave an angry comment: You have to unlock every skin. Doesn't that sound fun? Now hear me out, unlocking skins is relatively easy, you just need to get to places and find NPCs. This only unlocks the basic skins though, there are more NPCs you need to find and bosses to fight in order to make these bad boys work in PvP. However this means that several skins won't be unlockable in the next update until further areas have been added. Though speaking of areas..
New Map
MTO is getting a new map, that's right. The next update will contain a new, redesigned Subspace, which will still mostly act as a hub for all areas in the game, and the entirety of the Ruins from the original Undertale. You probably could've guessed that part from all the ruins-related devlogs, but isn't that amazing? Chances are that future updates may even add areas past the ruins.
Each area will also contain several NPCs required to unlock skins, with the Subspace being the only area to host the non-Undertale skins. However, in order to actually use these skins in PvP, you need to fight some bosses to prove yourself worthy of using their moveset yourself. While on the topic of PvP...
PvP
PvP is returning in a shape that's better than ever. We'll not only be working out all the bugs, but we'll add multiple new skins to the list of pvp-compatible skins. This list includes, but is not limited to:
Toriel
Asgore
Flowey
Frisk
Chara
Sans
Yes, you read that right, Sans is on the list. He is getting an entirely redone and overhauled moveset that's more balanced and more accurately represents his bossfight from the original game. In addition to that, players with a Level Of Violence above 10 will also recieve Sans' infamous "KR" effect from his attacks. You better prepare yourself when fighting a Sans player, because Sans may just be one of the hardest skins to unlock for PvP, meaning anyone wielding this skin in PvP knows what they're doing.
But that's not all, we'll bring back EXP rewards for winning PvP battles. We have yet to write out a new formular for the EXP-calculation, but rest assured, getting to LV 20 will be possible again. Additionally, there will be several additions to make sure that anyone can win against anyone else, such as various temporary bonusses for low LV players or capped damage.
New and Improved Chat-System
Chat will be seeing some major improvements, including better input, a better looking UI, the ability to scroll through past chat-messages you recieved, color modifiers, more facial expressions, a higher character limit, the option to talk without a portrait, general design-improvements and so much more!!
Undernet
Undernet will recieve an update that'll allow you to setup your own little profile with your own status and such! I initially didn't mean to announce this, but it has come to my attention that someone else has been working on a very similiar feature, so I felt it was best to just announce it before any wrong assumptions are made.
Well, those are only a few of the things that are planned, but I don't wanna ruin any suprises. I hope you're as excited for this update as I am and I'll be saying you all later.
Ciao!
