made this little remix, wanted to share with you guys!

have had this idea for quite a while now. wonder how many people will catch on to what i mean by that ;)

(also snuck in another little detail. not sure which one's easier to catch, but it was fun to put in regardless :) (and also allowed me to be a bit more lazy with things!))

composed in musescore. transcribed the original track in 0cc-famitracker, and made an edit using audacity.

newsletter summary:

• deltarune chapter 3's almost complete, and chapter 4 is underway
• toby's changing the release plan for deltarune again, now chapters 3 and 4 (not 5 anymore) will be released for purchase together
• there's a nice little dev team interview for deltarune chapter 2
• various images of characters dressing up as each other!
• a spoopy narrative to tie it all together

nice stuff!

trying out this cross-post feature with a little thing i did that's relevant to two different video game fandoms! cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/6129824

i was thinking about how elfilin was shaped like a heart for some kind of valentine's day concept. and then... that turned into the following kirby/deltarune crossover thing. spoilers for kirby and the forgotten land!
