[deltarune] no spoilers but, it's great to watch the SA Deltarune thread just popping the fuck off

I'm trying to catch up, and I'm 20 pages back and it looks like a CIA document

it's a good thing chapters 3-5 will presumably be dropping together because this thirsty fucking fandom.

toby fox said after ch 2, production would speed up too
skerple
yeah! it makes sense, he's got his team now
skerple
and he's mentioned engine changes and stuff so presumably some previously time-consuming things have been streamlined
skerple
no more cutscenes that are just long strings of if statements lmao

toby is also not making the whole thing himself, which thank fucking god
moontouched
otherwise his hands would probably self-destruct

i mean he did do undetale with a super small team... but that's also a 6 hour game

I'm so glad he's got a team helping him; wrist injuries are no joke

no more bullet pattern testing for the dog

I'm glad he'll be charging for the rest of the game because please Toby let us support you.

And your team! Because they did a great job! CHAPTER 2 WAS SO FUN?
❄️⌒[>。<] BIZ
Like Chapter 1 was already great, but the gameplay was kicked up so many levels in 2. New mechanics and abilities. GREAT WORK, EVERYONE.
skerple
yeah it's honestly so buckwild that chapters 1 and 2 were free
skerple
2 alone was like half an undertale
skerple
1 being free made sense, considering it was proof of concept/interest-gauging as much as anything (and as one poster on SA put it, "the level of interest could best be described as Yes")
skerple
but like. he could have justified charging for 2. he really really could have.
skerple
"so, you liked chapter one! great! how about that, but like twice as much of it, and better?"

I think he was originally going to charge for chapter 2 but decided to release it as a "sorry you're having a hard time" gift to the world
skerple
... that makes sense and is very sweet
