#deltarune code

ok wait hear me out on my thoughts about this Carol sprite that was “unused”

there’s a lot of stuff about Kris losing a hand, like one of the shadow crystals saying “You looked through and you thought you could see through your hand” and the gachapon machine scene (and other moments and lines I can’t remember right now)

so what if, at some point, we fight The Knight again, they cut off Kris’s hand and their blood splatters onto their face, and then we go back into the Light World and we see this sprite (that’s just assuming The Knight IS Carol, right now I believe it’s her, but idk I could be wrong lol)

i would just like to point out this line if code.

that is all. carry on.

Hi! my little bro noticed a thing while messing around with the dialogue of Deltarune; in Kris' room there's a thing called "obj_readable_room1_Slash_other_10_gml_11_0": that says "*Suddenly, your body seizes up^1.&*What are you looking at?/%" we've been trying to find what is the object that gives that dialogue but apparently is not there? maybe it was unused :D

(deltarune spoilers)

Actually, this line exists in a script for obj_readable_room1. This script provides the dialogue for 62 different rooms.

View the script here.

As you can see, this message is initially assigned to global.msg[0]. However, global.msg[0] is assigned another message depending on the object you interact with.

This line is a default ‘failsafe’ message attached to all objects you can examine. If the game is working properly, it is a message you will never see, since the game will override this default text with the correct flavor text. The only way you could see it is if Toby Fox accidentally forgot to assign flavor text to something.

It’s good practice to assign a default message to your string object. In Undertale, there is a default message in Sans’ judgment that can actually be seen under certain conditions.

However, in this case, “your body seizes up” message will likely not be seen unless an error somehow occurs and global.msg[0] is not overwritten in an object interaction. (Unlikely, but not impossible.)

The message makes sense in the context of DELTARUNE’s plot: Kris cannot sense anything around them if the appropriate dialogue box doesn’t appear. It is an in-game explanation to an error occurring in the game.

* just realized that the “him.png” image’s first archive is from December 2015

* the first version of the image is the excerpt from entry 17 that says “THIS NEXT EXPERIMENT SEEMS VERY VERY INTERESTING”

* Dess (full name December) is presumably missing in the Deltarune world

* and, if you believe the theory that Dess is the person trapped in the code and the one who tries to talk to you in Spamton’s shop, then this all becomes very

* very

* interesting

Ok so, someone found Chapter 5’s code dialogue and I’ll just put it here for Tumblr:

“I do have one thing, though.

And that's memories.

Memories of my life...

Maybe that's all I am at this point.

A collection of memory...

...

Then all I can do is...

Don't forget.

I have to keep telling myself that...”

I’ll add that someone noted that 2_0 through 7_0 have a b at the end(side B???) but 8_0 to 10_0 don’t.

Curious, very curious.

Also here’s a link to the Reddit thread I found it from:

Reddit - Please wait for verification

Personally, I feel this calls into question if it’s Dess actually in the code and maybe Noelle instead.

I’ve been leaning towards Deltarune Gaster in the code for awhile, but it’s basically dead in the water now so it’s come down to these two in my eyes.

I lean now towards Noelle since we have more proof that she could’ve fallen into the code than Dess, but she doesn’t sound close to the state she was in in Chapter 5 as she does in the code so idk.
