It’s a tease. A promise. A riddle hanging over the heads of Toby Fox fans for nearly half a decade.
We know that in Deltarune , we (the player) are not Kris. We are the "Red Soul" controlling them. Kris rips us out at the end of each chapter to eat pie and be creepy. 2 player deltarune
Toby Fox isn't just adding a co-op mode for fun. He is adding it because the story demands two entities fighting for the steering wheel. Whether that’s you and your little brother arguing over who gets to play Susie, or you and the ghost in the machine fighting for the fate of the town of Hometown... It’s a tease
If you have played Deltarune —even just the free Chapter 1—you know the feeling. You boot up the game, expecting a solo RPG in the vein of its predecessor Undertale , only to be slapped with a pop-up window that reads: "2 PLAYERS (FUTURE)." We know that in Deltarune , we (the player) are not Kris
But what does a true two-player Deltarune actually look like? Is it just controlling Kris and Susie at the same time, or is there something darker—and more brilliant—hiding in the code of the game’s lore?
