Something I hadn't considered until now; what if the monsters won the war? The monsters won and banished the humans to the underground. All except for one. If the humans and monsters coexist peacefully, than why is Kris the *only* human we see? The baby bunny in the overworld ("Are you a human? Does it hurt being made of blood?") seems to confirm that Kris is the only human in this small town.

"No one can choose who they are in this world." So find yourself a different world.

this is EXACTLY why i disagree with imagination theory, i think the world is made out of the imagination of kris or us, but it becomes real.(matpat is really pushing the “its all a imaginary game they are both playing) also, i think the reason why you can control this world slightly more is because your not 100% controlling kris at this point, your controlling the avatar character in this fantasy world that is being played by kris, so its another filter, one that isn’t 100% kris.

I am 90% with you on this. I'd just like to add that I believe that the force behind Deltarune (whether or not it's Gaster). Is making Kris's imagination into reality. Instead of the Dark World being completely metaphorical, I believe that it started that way, but was brought to life by the higher force. (Like so he can see for part 3)

[@mmopronick7443]

This. everything about this, and the fact that lancer, not kris, pulls through to susie, I think kris had nothing to do with lancer existing and causing issues (or literally running over ralsei early on, that DEFINITELY is not something Kris would have wanted to see.

[@vazquez2073]

Yes! Absolutely! Give this man a Lancer's Cookie!

[@vazquez2073]

I dont know if it really is Gaster or some other entity behind it, but I'm almost certain that the dark world is not 100% imagination. I dont buy the "it was too immersive for Susie" excuse. You never come out of a game questioning if what you experienced by it was *real* or not, no matter how moved by it you were.

[@thethrowawaymoth791]

You're more likely to get seen on the reddit. Just a heads up. Good luck! :)

I like this idea! It also adds to the "Your choices don't matter", as Kris' imagination is then literally taken from them and forced to come to life, and Kris forced to live it without being able to control it.

[@matheuskirisame]

To tell the Truth there is at least 1000+ theories,some like: -Undertale is a dream and Deltarune the real world -The barrier was broken with Asriel and Chara with a different process we know -The war never happened -Monsters won the war -It's a world created by Chara in Genocide Route final -It's a reset scramble -It's another AU nothing related to Undertale -It's another AU somehow related to Undertale -Gaster experiments -Or a Undertale Frisk dream mixing everything in his/her life But something we know,the most accurate theories are dream related or some Gaster could have a connection,but it's only in our death we gonna know what will happen in chapter 2

[@matheuskirisame]

And Easter eggs are always revelating,so Super Smash Bros is a hint of something like number of chapters Deltarune have?

[@froilanjosephpaz4941]

If you noticed in Entry Number 17 from undertale...the reasons it was cut out from the True Lab cause its not related somehow. Toby Fox before releasing Deltarune released tweets with words referencing Entry Number 17. And also that entry from undertale is Gaster saying that he is making a new experiment. Toby Fox talks like Gaster which shows that Gaster is the creator of the world of Deltarune. And that in Entry Number 17 shows that Gaster is making an experiment, that experiment might be a teaser for the upcoming deltarune game that was released. If we payed attention to this. Then perhaps Deltarune's release might be not much of surprise. AND maybe those 2 other guys that Gaster was referencing was Sans and Flowey...I think. Its ridiculous to say all of this that I want someone to correct me xD. Also that Jevil's mind was BLOWN AWAY when he knew that everything was a game which was said by gaster...but many would refer that the Dark world was just a game...BUT it could also mean the GAME in general. In Matpat's other theories...he showed that the followers of Gaster that can only be accessed through different fun values said that Gaster was shattered through Time and space...what if he was transported into the actual real world? Where he is watching the whole world of undertale and deltarune....and sans and flowey are actually real too. This means that Gaster believed his own world from Undertale was the real world...but when he fell into his creation, we would think that he is lurking around that isn't detectable anywhere...cause he is in the real world...and after a while...he got much comfortable in that place...he started to make games now.

If the war never happened why is Kris the only human? It seems more to me like the monsters won the war so Undyne grew up one the surface.

I already said this in the last part, but it's even more relevant here: It's quite possible that we'll get a *different playable character* in the second chapter. Since the heart doesn't represent Kris' soul but rather the player's, whichever character wields it is the one that being played (with the soul even representing the entire party in chapter 1, at least during battles). So probably *Asriel* comes home and finds the soul inside the cage in the room, or maybe even *Toriel* does so the next morning.

@@CanaanTheWingedOne That would be really interesting, but both Deltarune and Undertale seem to be establishing that we (the player) are in control of the red soul.

There are no other humans in that town (as far as we've seen) so for it to go to us controlling a different soul, we wouldn't be able to see all of the things the game told us to come back to the next day.

That would actually be super cool, especially in the context of Sans asking you to meet him the next day. If he knows he's really talking to us/the red soul instead of Kris, us/the red soul playing a different character and meeting him would confirm his suspicions or maybe cause him to reveal to us if he knows about Undertale

[@omnipresentmicroorganism9692]

Some things I wanted to bring to your attention, if you read this. If you choose to go back to bed at the very beginning of the game, it skips the prologue entirely. That says to me that Kris just does the same thing with or without our control. Again, our choices don't matter. Perhaps the Sans we see is from one of Undertale's neutral timelines? One where Papyrus survives, considering the "trousle of bones" text when you check his house. It would also have to be bad enough for him to vacate the timeline, although I can't think of a specific one right now. The music during the create-a-vessel scene is called "ANOTHER HIM". That seems relevant. One more thing: During the vessel creation, at the very end, the change to "your choices don't matter" seems very sudden and unnatural to me. The font changes entirely, too. Almost as if Gaster was interrupted.

[@aliceuzeda8630]

Another Him is literally gaster's theme slowed down, so... Also, I agree with you about gaster being interrupted. Someone theorized that maybe that was Chara taking control over the game. They discard the vessel gaster helped you make and force you to play the game to their rules.

[@firebluetoad3990]

15:14 It's funny, the same is true for Undertale. Funny no one really thinks of it, but in Undertale Frisk is controlled by you, You're the one making all the decisions.

[@gooolixx]

yes

[@YourLovelyGuy9442]

Yes smart

[@guifdcanalli]

To be fair if the pacifist is the true ending, then doing so you are doing what Frisk would do, in the end they are aware of everything as they said their name to Asriel normally, whitout our control, showing that our control over them was an illusion, at least in pacifist route, as undertale is open for many choicex While in deltarune is the opposite, if Kris is the alternate version of Chara, they are closed in one unique timeline in deltarune, the pacifist timeline that Chara/Kris would never do This is the difference, undertale you are a good person that HAVE the choice of being a bad person through the player, while deltarune you are a bad person THAT DOESNT HAVE any choice but being the good person their entire life because the player cant choose

@@baker7280 especially when Toby has stated that he started planning Deltarune before he started working on Undertale. Deltarune was partially planned out already when he started working on Undertale to work on a smaller game before trying to work on a larger one. It's highly unlikely he just put the Delta Rune in Undertale for no reason considering it was a big part of the plot of Deltarune, and then in Undertale saying "it's original meaning has been lost to time". There's definitely many things that you could say people are looking for connections where they don't exist or are stretching to find connections in things that weren't meant to be over-analyzed, but for the game that was actually thought of second (Undertale) to include the symbol by the name of the game he started writing first, is something too large to be simply a re-usage of the name.

[@Transformers2Fan1]

Toby had asked people to wait and not post about Deltarune until 24 hours after it had been made available. After, he said he understood the people who didn't wait, because he himself had been waiting six years. This is that kickstarter goal that was reached, a second game.

The voice is not Gaster, it is Kris. Kris CHOSE to allow the player to take over his body DURING THE DAY. You can tell this was preplanned as, even though he has never been possessed before, he knew to have that cage in his room, ready for the player's soul. He also seemingly dealt with the player with complete confidence and control at the end; a person newly possessed and regaining their will would likely panic, definitely not react with excitement and confidence. Kris let ththe player possess him. Likely the reason is because he needs your soul, along with Susie's monster soul, to create that illusionary world for BOTH the player and Susie. The world created is real, but controlled like a TTRPG by Kris, thus the reason Susie honestly wonders if it is a dream or not, upon coming out of that world. You and Susie played a game in that room, but that world was as real as the illusion worlds created by both Omega Flowey and Asriel Dreemurr. The power of a human soul and a monster soul has been shown to synergize into reality warping magic. Kris, no longer tied to his physical form, used Susie's and the player's souls to create the Darkener world and the entire adventure for you all. Extra theory, Ralsei is Kris's inserted character. Kris normally is shy and unassertive compared to his brother. It would be obvious that if he controlled a character playing in that world then he would probably act a lot like the meek shy prince, Ralsei (using his brother as inspiration for his character's form). Primarily, Kris may only be doing this as a form of escapism and to finally fill a void, left by his brother going off to college, by playing with both you and Susie, as his own character (Ralsei) along with the DM. Hey MP, you knew this right?

I'm starting to believe that this was sans's original universe. Notice how they randomly "appear" in Undertale and he seems extremely depressed and lazy. I believe it's because he was sent to a war torn world by some kind of mistake vs this world which was not war torn. Not to mention his lines like "I gave up on trying to go back a long time ago". Judging by all of that and another line stating(rough quote can't remember it off the top of my head completely) "Its a picture with three people on it, on it is written 'don't forget'. Sans states that he'd like you to befriend his younger brother who I'm assuming is a very young papy, so when they are transferred over to the world of Undertale Sans still remembers the three... Kris, Susie, and "Ralsei"(Asriel). But that's just my theory lol.

Babo Woah, that’s a really good theory! I think I agree with you on that! Also, I don’t know if it matters, but ‘Don’t Forget’ is also the name of the credits song, and it’s melody can be heard in different music throughout the game (most noticeably in ‘Field of Hopes and Dreams’).

@Karol Gutowski If you noticed in Entry Number 17 from undertale...the reasons it was cut out from the True Lab cause its not related somehow. Toby Fox before releasing Deltarune released tweets with words referencing Entry Number 17. And also that entry from undertale is Gaster saying that he is making a new experiment. Toby Fox talks like Gaster which shows that Gaster is the creator of the world of Deltarune. And that in Entry Number 17 shows that Gaster is making an experiment, that experiment might be a teaser for the upcoming deltarune game that was released. If we payed attention to this. Then perhaps Deltarune's release might be not much of surprise. AND maybe those 2 other guys that Gaster was referencing was Sans and Flowey...I think. Its ridiculous to say all of this that I want someone to correct me xD. Also that Jevil's mind was BLOWN AWAY when he knew that everything was a game which was said by gaster...but many would refer that the Dark world was just a game...BUT it could also mean the GAME in general. In Matpat's other theories...he showed that the followers of Gaster that can only be accessed through different fun values said that Gaster was shattered through Time and space...what if he was transported into the actual real world? Where he is watching the whole world of undertale and deltarune....and sans and flowey are actually real too. This means that Gaster believed his own world from Undertale was the real world...but when he fell into his creation, we would think that he is lurking around that isn't detectable anywhere...cause he is in the real world...and after a while...he got much comfortable in that place...he started to make games now.

[@ruedadesalami8317]

Kris started with us because we will try to stop it but now that we aren’t in Kris body anymore we can’t do anything to stop it

There’s actually a secret area with a man that gives you an egg and at the end of the game, you can put the egg in Asgore’s fridge.

[@damecube]

Sans also didnt changed his clothes. And Toriel, Asgore, Alphys and Undyne changed they clothes. Sans is 100% the same guy. What if this is the world he comes from and in Undertale he wants to go back to Deltarune. I mean the Underground is a world of suffer and Deltarune (Overworld) is a world where everyone is happy.

[@aydenkotnik4296]

Damecube That.... Makes a surprising amount of sense

[@anl9130]

Damecube yeah he can be a darkner. because at the sans fight only way you can beat him is making him tired. and no monster bleeds in undertale but sans. and darkners probably bleed too.

[@noextra542]

Damecube actually a solid theory :)

[@muaz1048]

@KEVIN ACKERMAN I mean if that would be the case, then Papyrus has to wear other clothes since in Undertale Sans said that he made himself his "battle armor" after a birthday party or something

[@QuizMasterEntertainment]

I'm still not sure about the "it was all just a game" thing, sounds kinda lame and it's been done since heart of darkness. as for the bit about the player taking over Kris, that one I totally agree, specially considering how originally the save name is kris and then it's whatever name we decide. the big question is, if Gaster truly was divided into papyrus and sans, how are they here now? Gaster would not have become the royal scientist with no war, that makes me really curious about a lot of stuff, I'll just have to wait until the second chapter of deltarune

[@Ultrakillisprettycool]

I agree, It kind of feels like he's just looking for excuses to make it just a game at this point.

[@marcusmattson1216]

I think gaster migjt have determination even after being separated so maybe parts of him can returen from time to time to change the world since sans has so much power gaster must be at a even higer level then that so maybe thats how

[@Kleoath]

I do think that it is all just a game, but I also think that there is more to the story. Perhaps Kris has some otherworldly powers similar to that of Sans where they can create alternate realities based on their imaginary worlds.

[@marcusmattson1216]

I think that it makes sense personaly but if you dissagree thats ok

[@usmansiddiqui1384]

That's a good question, but Gaster being Sans and Papyrus is as valid a theory as Sans being Ness. He could be someone totally different, like the guy in the hospital, or someone we haven't met yet.

[@SileyCone]

I like how Mat just explain theories and stuff and Kris having a knife and throws his heart into the cage. Just to ends up knowing Kris just wanted a pie and.

[@g6ob812]

Everyone just wants sans to be connected more to the lore lol

[@remukko5178]

Sans' "sex" joke with "I've already 'met' your mother." Is just him saying he met her already in a timeline where undertale takes place!

[@TheAdvertisement]

LapiLikesCookies Yeah no that’s not what he means at all.

[@xedusk]

No, he said he met her last night when she stopped by his store to buy chocolates.

[@weirdpal43]

Undertale and deltarune are NOT CONNECTED TOBY FOX SAID SO

[@weirdpal43]

@Emmanuelle Kirlin toby fox said that deltarune is not related to undertale so what you just said. IT SOUNDS LIKE BULLCRAP

[@TheAdvertisement]

Emmanuelle Kirlin Yes, that’s because it’s supposed to be like an AU. The two universes, however, are not connected AT ALL. Toby has said this himself in his faq.

[@TheMagnifikle]

I have a theory that Undertale, is actually just the story that Asriel created when he was playing with Kris. I can see the two kids playing in a world where they take the role of the two most powerful characters in their fantasy world, but Asriel is telling the story and that’s why Asriel is dead in undertale, because he is playing a DM kind of role, where he does not have an active character, and can focus on creating a story based on Kris’ actions. I can see two kids shipping together two random individuals (Undyne and Alphys) in their world because they wanted to make it interesting. Notice how Undertale’s story is darker and that might be because Asriel is older. Also notice how in Undertale being a human is such a great deal, that might be Adriel’s attempt in making his little brother feel better about being the only human there and not like a freak. I am so happy, that so many people liked my theory!!!

[@saitamasensei8752]

what about sans then?

[@antoninaego5186]

Sister. His little sister. I can agree with the rest.

[@magikenn]

I only have one question... Where the hell is Papyrus?

[@therussbuss5314]

In his house, trousling bones

[@rebeccagober8522]

A Failed Artist Not anywhere in the game, but we can assume that he’s in Sans’s house because if you knock, you hear the distant trousle of bones. Papyrus’s theme is Bonetrousle.

[@magikenn]

That makes sense.

[@jimothyhasleftthechat2667]

Ikr, I missed my spaghetti

[@user-qj3cp1xu7z]

A Failed Artist not 100% sure, but I think sans asks for you to look after his little brother in the epilogue

[@eastoff8]

I have 2 questions.....1. if the war never happened then where are all the humans? Shouldn't they be living peacefully with the humans? Like why is "Kris" the only one. It's even been said that some monsters (deer from hospital) are scared of humans. 2. Who are kris parents? Where are they? Why did Kris have to be adopted into a seemingly all monster society?

[@eastoff8]

*living peacefully with the monsters

[@cralo2569]

Maybe this town is only filled with monsters, or we just didn't see a human on that part of the town.

[@LanceWhiteCh]

If the war between humans and monsters never happened, that doesn't necessarily mean that the relationship between the two races is all fine and dandy. Maybe something else happened, or maybe the humans are just racist and don't want to associate with monsters.

[@Jojo-on7pk]

wait, what if in this timeline it's not that the war never happened, but the monsters won that war, but spared the children because of their innocence? then the monsters adopted the human children and Kris just happens to be the only human in the village.

[@jinmushui1soul]

@@LanceWhiteCh Given human history, not sure we could expect much else. #separatebutequal

[@midshipharpy9283]

Theory #1 :In the genocide route of undertale at the end chara asks the player to move on to the “next world” which is the deltarune world. So let’s say the name you give the creator at the beginning of deltarune is actually the name your giving the undertale character. It explains why the first time you save you overright a save file which Kris’s . It means that when the player moves on to the next world at the end of the undertale genocide you move on to deltarune and you overright Kris’s save file. Theory #2 Of course if you do pacifist after genocide, in the end you either see charas eyes, or a picture of your friends with Their faces crossed out. Once you do genocide, chara is connected with the player. Even if you go to deltarune ,you are still punished for being a violent murderer chara, can still take over.

[@Schattenkobold]

I don't think that's the case. Chara simply said to move to the "next world" which is another undertale world where you may do the pazifist run. But after the credits you get a bonus scene of chara flashing her eyes after the pazifist run when you did a genocide once.

[@bluelagoon134]

Schattenkobold See, I feel like Chara may be connected to us *as the player*, seeing as after you do one genocide run in Undertale, Chara never truly leaves, even though you’re in *another parallel universe”. So I think it’s possible that since we, the player, are now interacting with this parallel universe, we have brought Chara to this universe simply by choosing to play the game. And now Chara has come to this universe to make a mess of it.

[@midshipharpy9283]

These are some good points, I will edit my comment

[@splat6617]

@@bluelagoon134 this theory is great except for one thing chara its not chara toby said this has nothing to do with undertale dont try to put her into this its not chara its the genocide player now i know it has ties to undertale but none of this has to do with chara but it does have many references to her like the song when it says "ill be with you in the dark" and chara is powerful in the dark but until we get more info with future games we shouldnt be so sure
