All Kris had to do was follow Susie to the supply closet to retrieve some chalk, yet moments later, they’re a mere twenty-four hours away from the worldwide reveal of Charles Feldman’s Y2K plan.

(Context and a better look at the sprites under the cut!)

I initially didn’t plan on making an entire post for this, but given the effort that went into it (Even if it looks identical to the source material at first glance), I figured it was worthy of showing on my main blog!

As of a few days ago (As a result of my good friend @minxxikuo being a big fan of it and with the veryrecent release of Chapter Two), I decided to give Deltarune a go, and man am I glad that I did. It may have been a good five years since I’ve even touched anything having to do with Undertale, yet Deltarune does enough differently from its predecessor that it’s a whole new experience entirely!

Though, my experience with Deltarune so far isn’t necessarily the point of this post (Though you can find similar insight in the tags). Rather, once I discovered that there was a meme where Kris and Susie find themselves in varying media that isn’tDeltarune (Much to Susie’s frustration), I just had to make a contribution to it.

And what better way to do that than by putting the human and monster duo in the world of Override— specifically, this scene? I went into the creation of it knowing only Knives and whoever else I decided to show it to would understand it to its fullest, though it ended up looking so good that I decided I ought to post it!

The original Deltarune sprites are featured on the left, whereas my Override-styled interpretations are on the right side! Kris was particularly easy to draw a sprite for, the only thing that was challenging for them was trying to match their body type to their original sprite, as well as stylizing their hair.

I was anticipating spriting Susie would be a muchmore daunting task (Because of her overall design coupled with the fact that I had to redraw a veryspecific frame of her), though resizing the sprite just a notch and adding some finer details (Like the pocket on her jacket, the belt loops on her pants and a whole ton of shading) made the process much easier.

Then, there was the fact that I had to recreate the general scene where Lauren’s out investigating the SGN-DRN crash— really, I still had all of the sprites, the toughest thing about the recreation was getting the lighting (Which I didn’t have on-hand) to look as identical as possible to the original. Suffice to say, I think I got pretty close!

For a joke I only intended on showing a couple of people, I’m still really proud of it, and am happy to have put my spriting smarts to good use for such a creative meme!
