Now that's Winter, I'm thinking about NEWSLETTER. But I haven't written anything for one yet... Right now, my energy is going towards preparing Chapter 5 for localization. The translation process begins next week. We have extracted all the English text and we are now annotating it.

I finished annotating (most of) the translation with 8-4's assistance. I skipped a couple unfinished parts, but it's enough for the translator to properly start work on Monday! Yay!

#DeltaruneTomorrow — это райское предвкушение. Ничто в мире игр не может повторить эту магию: слияние ностальгии, дерзкого дизайна и музыки, пробирающей до мурашек. Сообщество затаило дыхание в едином порыве. Этот ажиотаж уникален и неподражаем. Мы ждём не просто игру — ждём возвращения домой.

That horror movie dialogue, it's weird route dialogue I can imagine the cheeky grin as you chose THAT dialogue to tease here, because without context, it DOES seem normal!

No, this certain power resembles a power of yellow... and pink. Like... no No, like hi̵̳̽m̸̨̤̮͌͐̇ ̴̨̝̥̦͆ͅì̵̢̺̬̝͉͂̄̑͝n̴̪̽̽̕͠ ̸̡̲̖̓m̷̫̼̻̊̈́͋͝y̷̦̏͛͂̒ ̵̳̞̗͋ḍ̵̼̟̫̂̍͋͘r̸̛̘͇̠̫̐̆ͅe̷̡͂̚a̶̢̪͎̰̅m̶̞̜̊͒́.̷̤̞̭́ Like the sea...

the most important lore implication in this image is that kris now thinks of susie when thinking of their own shampoo and to be loved is to be changed like that. im very happy

#DeltaruneTomorrow — это великолепный всплеск творчества и надежды. Сообщество живёт в ожидании, наполняя сети искусством, теориями и искренним восторгом. Каждый тизер, каждая деталь — как подарок. Эта всеобщая страсть, это единение в предвкушении — настоящее волшебство.

considering that the seam dialogue is cut off before he actually finishes, i'm assuming this is a classic Toby Misdirect, and shadow crystals will have something other than determination, he just WANTS us to think that they do for the time being

YES SEAM IWAS RIGHT ALL ALLONG!!! THEY ARE CRYSTALS OF DETERMINATION IN ITS PUREST FORM!!! I WAS RIGHT!!! I KNEW IT!!! OMG TOBY!!!!! COMPOUNDS IN ITS PUREST FORM TEND TO FORM CRYSTALS, AND A THEORIZED ITEM THAT COULD ALLOW US TO CHANGE FATE HAS TO BE IMBUED OR BE DETERMINATION!! I WAS RIGHT!!

BUT !!! BUT !! FROM WHO DID THAT DETERMINATION CAME FROM, OF SUCH PURITY... SOMEONE WITH AN INMENSE SCIENTIFIC KNOWLEDGE COULD HAVE EXTRACTED IT!! BUT FROM WHO??? DESS???? HOW?? OH NO PLEASE HELP!!! I NEED ANSWERS!!!!

What the hell we're waiting for? Just procced and it won't hurt at all You just got time to release your games While you're waiting for the hammer of, hammer of justice While you're waiting for the #DeltaruneTomorrow Give it to me one more time!

determination is in shadow crystals = the knights sword gives us a shadow crystal = dess has been surviving the dark world through determination = de termination #truthbomb

DOES the Knight's sword give us a Shadow Crystal? I always assumed they just dropped it from somewhere else at the same time it was chipped. How would the Crystal be staying on the Black Knife? Genuinely asking cause I'm curious.

it gives both the black shard and the crystal at the same time with the same pick up sound effect. theres no evidence that it just appears out of nowhere. added evidence that the shadow crystals are connected to the knight are when gerson says he got one right after the knight makes the DW.

I’ve been pondering this over all day. It might be a joke it’s like so obvious in hindsight. Dark worlds are created with determination, you concentrate your will and that determines the conditions of the world. Shadow crystals are tied to Freedom, especially choice in the past two chapters

The knight has you choose repeatedly to fight an impossible battle until you force an alternate outcome, Gerson’s arc is about Susie determining her own story and fate. Arguably Spamton is about pursuing a potential beyond his ability and Jevil finds freedom through his perception of the world

people are talking about the shadow crystals while im more intrigued by the shampoo line both being another apple mention and getting into if susie would be friends with the real non-player kris

do we think perhaps 'hyper' is covering the word 'trickster'- [I am forcibly dragged away for making a Homestuck reference in 2026]

Probably yeah, Queen establishes that every lighter posses the power of determination, and that's why she needed one to make a fountain. Therefore darkeners can't have determination, and shadow crystal being a fragment of determination that a darkner can use would fit very nicely

Now an interesting question arises - where did the shadow crystals get the determination from? (My bet is on Dess being involved in some way, probably not very good one)

Toby Fox, I sincerely congratulate you on #DeltaruneTomorrow! Recently, space and time themselves proclaimed a P R O P H E C Y, telling us of the coming universal end of the beginning. THE BEAR 2026 WILL CONQUER THE PLANET THE BEAR 2026 WILL CONQUER THE PLANET THE BEAR 2026 WILL CONQUER THE PLANET

true, but it’s been established that titans and titan spawn are made of courage through flavor text, and since both them and the shadow crystals are made of pure darkness my bet’s on courage for now

"creepy doll" "Your brother never wanted to watch them" "Then just never came back" We control Noelle = creepy doll. Asriel being afraid of the movie = foreshadowing of us killing Asriel in chapter 5. But if Asriel is already dust (Ralsei)... Double piles of Asriel's dust theory?
