no
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I wouldn't see that working, also this Noelle is ugly
I don't mean like a straight-up adaptation. More like something that takes place in the same universe with the same characters.
Toby once promised a comic for Undertale. It really depends on the execution.
Toby's narratives don't work in actual storytelling mediums, which require a frick ton of work just to get from point A to point B naturally without alerting the audience that something is off, pacing, blocking, scene transitions, backing music, composition, coherence, camera work, setup, payoff, order of scenes, dialogue, voice acting etc, their existence by default excludes some stories from being told if they rely too much on abstraction.
Games however, especially older ones or ones that ape old games because of how abstract they are, allow for much more freedom in approach since the audience is responsible for controlling almost all of it and the suspension of disbelief is much higher, while investment is more personal. Stuff that works when a player experiences it in a game, breaks down when you try to adapt it and show it in an animation happening to "someone else".
Players are content to do nothing but walk for five minutes, run into an NPC, hear a line of dialogue, accidentally talk to them again and hear the same line, and still stay immersed, this allows you to do a sort of freeform approach to storytelling where you just scatter pieces around and the player is responsible for piecing the them together, but try making a cartoon episode that has five minutes of nothing but walking and a character saying the same line twice, and people will lambast you for wasting their time.
Hey hey heyyyy someone knows what the frick they’re talking about. To anyone else wishing to adapt a game to a comic, read this post here.
It doesn't have to be adaptation, though. Adaptations are boring. Give me an animated prequel.
bump
while i agree with a lot of what you are saying, i thin animation has the ability to adapt, change and evolve in a lot of diferent directions that could explore different forms of story telling
if there is a medium to adapt something so weird as toby foxs games then it would be animation, but it would need some experimentation and a lot of talent and heart working on the proyect
Toby's games aren't really weird, it's just a brand of autism that only works confined to a game where your mind fills in the gaps, as soon as you start realizing it in higher fidelity all the autistic gaps shine through and become cringe.
>TFW a homestuck gay understands how to employ the strengths of vidya in a narrative better than most AAA directors
I know it's because most of them are just failed Hollywood people but it's still funny
It's just basic JRPG narrative, the less of it the better, like how retro games look better than the modern realistic soulless shit
Deltarune and undertale are pretty charming, but is hard to say how much of that charm would be able to be translated in to a proper narrative. There is a lot people excuse on the story because is a game and narratively speaking the passing and tone work really different than a proper television show.
I don't think is impossible but also so much of the narrative in the game is tied in to the mechanics and how they are presented to you that I don't see it holding up the the game. It could work as a short webseries similar to machinimas where are just the characters hanging out, but again, if you are going this far why not just put in the game?
Undertale wouldn't work because its shtick relies on meta Cinemaphile commentary. Deltarune is perfect for animation, though.
It'll only work if it's purposely animated in an archaic style. Ever watch Schoolhouse Rock?
Neat idea.
UT/DR are purposefully aping Mother's style, which apes Peanuts. It only makes sense if the animated adaptation deliberately went for a 60s/70s "dark age" cartoon style, with lots of scribbles and off-model drawings. I'm surprised there isn't a lot of fanart alluding to this.
Wrong board

Toby's writing is making a corridor with jokes. You find something or someone, they do the joke, and then you move to the next joke. I don't think it would work well in other mediums unless you change a lot of what was done.
Got any more pages? All I have is this
>queer
these are actually really neat edits, i've never seen someone try to emulate the 80s/90s kids' chapter book style before. I actually feel like if this had been a real book when i was a kid I would have loved it. Love how the artist translated the sprites into not only a more appropriate style, but also slightly adjusted the designs to be more period-accurate
>Susie's tail
What tail?
>chris
The story can get pretty complicated and varies depending on (you)r decisions, so it wouldn't work as an animated show unless you account for all possible decisions.
That being said, I wanna pinch Susie's stubby littlw tail
Toby Fox's style of writing and humor is entirely reliant on his medium being a video game.
>implying Kris cares enough to identify as anything and wear a pin
Only if they get Jerma to voice Spamton.
Im not even kidding. Knowing Jerma he'd voice him for free.
So you're saying I missed nothing by refusing to play both Undertale and Deltarune. Good to know.
It's just homestuck for zoomers
I think it could but the stories would have to be completely different from the games (Undertale especially) and more focused on the characters’ personalities clashing.
A harder question is whether you could make a good adaptation of Planescape Torment.
Homestuck fans in the industry would flock to work on it. Bad idea
It wouldn't keep in Toby's soul either
Hussie really got under your skin, huh?
Boil do you really want to start another fit because I made another article about Homestuck, it will end badly for you
There's some Kino elements to the series
Frick off schizo.
Would you go back to Cinemaphile?
No.
Damn
