Welcome to the official-unofficial topic for DELTARUNE, an official spinoff game to the popular indie title UNDERTALE. This topic serves as an alternate platform to separate the discussion from the UNDERTALE topic.
By continuing to read this topic, you agree to the risk of spoilers. We highly recommend you to complete both Chapter 1 and 2 on your own before heading into the discussion, as DELTARUNE is a fairly recent game that is best experienced when played blind.



DELTARUNE is an upcoming official spinoff game to UNDERTALE, the popular indie roleplaying title where nobody has to die. They are both developed by Toby Fox, who was previously known for his Earthbound Halloween hack and music contribution to Homestuck. In DELTARUNE, the player takes on the role of a human living in a world where humans and monsters co-exist. The game features an all-new original soundtrack, new characters, new locations and a new adventure.

DELTARUNE currently has no set release date and is far from completion. Chapter 1 and 2 are however available for free and can be downloaded here: https://www.deltarune.com/

I want to try the demo SO BAD but I have a problem with my computer. I might try to ask my parents if I can get the game on their computer though

its alright i guess, i never played undertale. i just found deltarune earlier today.

I would love to try the demo of this game but I currently use Windows Vista (the laptop in my house is always taken) and I tried downloading it but it crashed.

I’m pretty sure it’s only for Windows 10, but I’m not really sure though
And why do you use Vista? Isn’t it like 10 years old?

It should be compatible for Windows 7 and above.

24 hours have passed! Discussions are now open.¨
(guidelines updated)

so far it's a direct upgrade to undertale

lancer is lucas

I played and beat the demo and it is amazing! I love it and can't wait to play the full game when it comes out. Though the ending confused me: What was that in the end? Kris ripped his soul out and his eye glowed red. Just what was that?

My IRL friend is very very very very excited about this game

if the game is installed to a folder along with the uninstaller, DO NOT UNINSTALL, IT WILL DELETE ALL FILES FROM THAT FOLDER!

I realized that undertale is the earthbound counterpart and this one is mother 3.

I changed my pic to celebrate this game.

Mother 3 and delta both have chapters and are darker than the predecessor

Didn't Toby fix that in recent releases?

Oh, I get it! Deltarune is an anagram of Undertale!

Just played through it and I'm very intrigued to see where its going. It was great getting to see all the characters from the previous game. Also, that intro bit with the character design was hilarious tbh.
