Thereโ€™s so much I want to say about Undertale, but with a limited word count this is what I was able to submit. Thanks Toby for making such an amazing game :)

Oats We Sow chapter 24 is live! You can find it on AO3 :)

Itโ€™s been a while! Now Iโ€™m back with another chapter, and revamps of the first six Oats We Sow chapters. Enjoy!

A very quickly drawn picture of Rubinal, a fox-like character with fangs and a crest of feathers lying flat on the ground on top of a green background.

I had no clue these chapter rewrites were going to take as long as they are now. Bear with me. More progress updates coming soon

New OWS chapter: 7276 words long (unless I change anything last minute, which is unlikely.)

Focusing completely on early chapter rewrites now. Have an end goal in mind for them

Text on top of a blue, green, and yellow background, the colors blended together. Text reads: โ€œOWS update: I've had a lot going on in my life, so I fell out of writing for a whileโ€” however last night l managed to get almost the entirety of chapter 24 done. In my editing process I decided one scene needed to be longer, so that's what I'm refining right now.
Chapter revamps are still 1/6th of the way done. I'll begin on them as soon as I finish chapter 24- they shouldn't take too long.
I don't want to say a release date just in case I don't finish it by then, but l do have one in mind.โ€ A smiley face emoticon is at the end.

Update! OWS Chapter 24 is currently 6044 words long *without revisions!*

As I work through the revision and editing process, the count will likely get bigger.

How much was the blurred timeline shown in the November 2021 devlog adhered to by the final version of the game? If something changed, what was it and why? Will said timeline ever be shown unblurred now that the game has been out for a year?

Thanks so much to all of the team for making UTY ๐Ÿ’›

Anyway. Just realized it as I was watching the stream and wanted to point it out because I thought it was cool :) Thanks UTY devs!! My life is yours if yโ€™all eventually post an official timeline ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™

It lines up timeline-wise, as according to Cerobaโ€™s dialogue about Chujin and his garden, The Meadow became the Dunes as Chujinโ€™s health deteriorated. Which means, the Meadow HAD to still be around when Chujin was working for the Steamworks, as that was before his health started to deteriorate.

I have been *way* too into timelining UTY for a little while now, despite the complexity of it, and only NOW realizedโ€” This is the Meadow.

And then, after being asked if itโ€™s a reference to the Microsoft hill background, just with a cave ceiling: โ€œItโ€™s not that itโ€™s just a cave roof, uh, keep in mind considering how long the Steamworks has been going on for, and how old the place is. Wonder what that backgroundโ€™s based off of.โ€

โ€œThereโ€™s still a little secret here that I havenโ€™t seen anybody figure out yet. This monitor right here, uh, the image on there actually has a bit of a secret on it. Itโ€™s not a huge secret or anything, but a couple of things of connections I havenโ€™t seen people put together on it yet.โ€

So I was rewatching the 2024 Prismathon stream for UTY, when I caught an interesting quote from AeroArtwork at 07:40:12 in the VOD:

A cool thing I noticed in UTY about this monitor (which is probably well known by now but I wanted to yap), a thread ๐Ÿงต #undertaleyellow #uty

Text on top of a green and blue background, blended together. Text reads: โ€œOWS update:
Working!! Very slowly!!

I haven't gotten time to write as of recent, but the new chapter is slowly being completed. Going to try to lock in next week and get more done, because l've been REALLY wanting to write it (just haven't had time.)

Also might do some minor rewrites on earlier chapters (nothing major changed, just making the writing nicer) so look out for that when the new chapter is done!โ€

Hi Bluesky!!

Not much youโ€™ll find on my page other than infrequent art and fanfic updates when I have them. Enjoy :)
