Just a thing I found out, the file names for this image and every other image/gif/video EXCEPT for the green room are labeled c4 or ch4, meaning this most likely takes place in chapter 4.

If you go to the official deltarune status update and save any image as a file, the file name is something like "update2022-dr-ch4-cafe.gif"

[@blockbite.2]

Hope that helps :)

[@bharatsachdeva6683]

Green room is likely Asriel and Kris' rooms. You can see a maus hanging from its tail in the back, and Asriel's side of the room has the computer and its mouse. Right couch has slash marks on it, and there's a bucket of knives in the background to right of the maus.

[@isthatbraised]

@@bharatsachdeva6683 Yup you're probably right on this one, the stars, the cactus like plants, the couch being green and with a yellow stripe, and the things you mentioned. It could also be the whole 2nd floor of the house, with the cactus plant I mentioned, just unfinished and not detailed yet(its very empty so that's what im guessing) The bathroom and livingroom/kitchen could be separate areas.

[@cobalttheprotogen312]

I've only been playing Deltarune for a little over a year (I was playing before Chapter 2) but this still somehow brings back a feeling of nostalgia. Just something about hometown in general just unlocks an emotion I didn't realize I had. All of the talk about your brother leaving for college and just being able to explore and talk to everyone just hits all the right spots for me.

Do you mean the very beginning introduction? Or do you mean the first section of the song after that? Because that first section after that is the school theme, not Snowdin Town

Papyrus might be in this chapter if that's the case (just a thought)

[@lilo7770]

@@Unoriginality_Incarnate_stupid It depends if Asriel comes to Hometown before Chapter 6 I think, since there's a chance of Sans saying "Maybe when your brother is around" or something like that in Chapter 2

I genuinely think I just cursed myself So when this ost first released I was like "hey, why don't I make this my alarm for school?!" Bad idea Now whenever i hear this song I just get reminded of waking up at 5 AM feeling the cold wind of the early morning while forcing myself to get out of bed Thanks Toby, very cool

My theory is that this will play after Chapter 3, since the fountain opened at night, it will likely be daytime when the chapter is over

[@jolt5399]

If i am not mistaken the police station was not closed in chapter 1 or 2 but is in this clip on screen, maybe hinting at something that will happen in future chapters with undyne or napstablook

[@lavenderinthedark]

1:25 maybe we could be seeing the festival sooner than expected? this part doesnt really make sense to be coming out of nowhere, it sounds like something that would be added to the track based on where you are in the map. think the bunker gaster noise but a song instead of a sound effect. but then again, we see the police line right there in the associated gif... and its sorta implied that will be where the festival will be held. idk we ball on nonetheless. ps - hi future me reading this to look at how much of a doofus i was, hope youre enjoying the new chapters!! pps - you listened to this song for hours back in march lmao post post script - who wrote that damn valentines letter?!!?!!?? did you get any confirmation? i saw a video saying that it was the egg man and that makes a lot of sense but it could just as easily be someone we havent met yet..

[@professorantasma6591]

Ok, time for analysis from someone nobody knows: Me! First of all, we've seen screenshots of Hometown Day where it's not raining (The picture of Susie and Kris at the lake.) So, either the rain will stop at one point, and the scene shown will be scripted, the rain will stop after the next Dark World (unlikely, as it will likely no longer be daytime when you leave the next dark world), the GIF above and the lake picture take place in different chapters, or my personal favorite... that little blue thing is doing a rain dance! But that's not important to me. what IS important is hidden in plain sight. *The police station is closed.* I don't know exactly what this means, but it helps cement the idea that we'll have Undyne (or napstablook) in chapter 3.

[@ecstaticwooper368]
