Undertale homepage, in the page's HTML code.

UNDERTALE is an indie RPG where no one has to die. Inspired by the likes of the EarthBound series, particularly Mother 3, Yume Nikki, and Cave Story, it received critical acclaim for its interesting characters, interconnected soundtrack, and twists on standard RPG tropes. Being the brainchild of one of Homestuck's composers, it was crowdfunded and supported by the fanbase descended from that comic - especially since Homestuck was in a hiatus during that time. For a while, it was difficult to avoid this game.

Developer's Messages

"Don't rip sprites!" Warning

Version 1.00

...and don't even get us STARTED on uploading audio tracks to BrawlCustomMusic!

Please don't upload these huge sprite sheets online. 
Just 'cause most weird things here ARE used, I'd rather them be seen in context first. 
wait like a year 1st...
if you're just ripping normally seen sprites for spriter's resource or smth idc if you use these 2 make it easier tho

abc_1111 contains a crudely-written note addressed to sprite rippers, specifically the ones at the website Spriter's Resource, telling them to wait a year before uploading full sheets online.

Games made with Game Maker, like Undertale, store all of their sprites in big PNG spritesheets, instead of each sprite or character being stored as an individual file. So if one were to upload sprite sheets, the easiest thing to do would be to upload all of the sheets as-is...which would leave all of the spoiler-y sprites on the same sheet as well.

The odd filename was chosen to force it to the top of an alphabetical file listing and make its presence more obvious...which does no good, as the file listing is only visible if the sprites are separated by their internal names. Oops. This was replaced in later versions.

Version 1.001

I don't like the b-bepis either!! I-I swear!

 
you know what i
    HATE?

that's
       bepis

THE TASTE
   the smell
      the texture

hey...
      your
          drooling...

Version 1.001 replaces the no-spritesheet request with this vaguely erotic note about "bepis" that is a reference to a man in Moonside from EarthBound who hates the food the player likes. Toby Fox is a fan of EarthBound, and Undertale takes inspiration from the game heavily. Bepis is a silly misspelling of "Pepsi", as well as a word the developers think is silly.

The lack of any real meaning to this new text and the fact that it replaces the earlier request can be taken as permission to begin posting spritesheets, as supported by this forlorn-looking email.

"Don't spoil the game!" Warning

abc_123_a.ogg

Hello. He-he-he-he-have some respect and don't spoil the game. It's impossible to have mysteries nowadays, because of nosy people like you. Please keep all of this between us. If you post it online, I won't make any more secrets. No one will be impressed. It will be your fault! He-he-he-he-ha-he-he-ha-he-he.

This is a sound file of eight text-to-speech voices telling people not to post the game's secrets online. Who in their right mind would do tha— wait a minute...

The odd filename was chosen to force it to the top of an alphabetical file listing and make its presence more obvious. All other OGG-format music and sound effect files present in the game's folder are prefixed with either "mus_" or "snd_".

This file was updated in v1.001, taking out pretty much everything that was in the original audio file.

Toby Fox's Message

Hmmm...
To do:
Changes to this post-1.001.
Part of this game's charm is the mystery of how many options or secrets there are. If you are reading this, please don't post this message or this information anywhere. Or doing secrets will become pointless.
By the way, most of the seemingly unused text/files are used.
If you can find the in-game context for an asset, you can show it off. But if you can't, it probably means you haven't looked hard enough. Anything truly unused I'll probably post myself, later.
Living in a world like this, where people can simply cheat out the answers from the code... your impatience has REALLY damaged you, hasn't it?

This notice is put into the attention_hackerz_no_2 script, where the messages are set into variables called demonx, demony, demonz and demond, respectively. The messages are, obviously, used to warn crackers. Due of the naming of the script, the messages is put at the start of the internal strings list, increasing the chance for them to be read.

In 1.001, however, it has been changed to this:

Greetings.
You have made yourself completely clear.
Understood.
I, your humble servant, will follow you to the utmost...

The variables have been renamed to demona, demonb, demonc and demond, too. Curiously, the first line from the version 1.00 message is still present along with its associated variable, but has been moved into scr_namingscreen_check, which is the script that handles naming easter eggs.

Xbox Datamining Congratulatory Message

Hmmm...
To do:
Now where's my picture Toby...
* (It's a picture of a dog juggling several balls.) * (You feel satisfaction that your hard work reverse engineering the encryption of the Xbox One has paid off.)

gml_Object_obj_xbox_controller_connect_Create_0 in the Xbox One (v1.12X+) version contains this congratulation for dataminers, appropriately stored in a variable named unusedstring. Toby's foresight is appreciated, considering how difficult Xbox One's security was to crack.

Note that there's no new line after the second sentence in the original string.

Activity Levels

Wait, we're categorizing this now?

Press Shift or X five times at the title screen to get this handy screen.

  • Activity Level A is shown if you get a Neutral ending.
  • Activity Level B is shown if you complete the Pacifist route.
  • Activity Level C is shown if you fight Sans twice or kill him.

If none of the requirements are met, "No Information" is shown instead.

Unused Attacks

Sans

Hmmm...
To do:
Double check these.


Sans' battle has some unused attacks. They, along with used attacks, are handled in the obj_sansb_body object.

Vertical Platforms - The attack is handled by obj_vplatgen. It has bones along the bottom, with platforms randomly placed and scaled scrolling from top to bottom. Some platforms wave from left to right slightly as well. To dodge, you are to stay on the platforms and not fall to the bottom into the bones. There are 3 variations to this attack, controlled by obj_vplatgen's (0-indexed) type variable, type 1 to type 2 are simply sped up versions of type 0. Type 2 is directly accessible as attack type (variable a_type) 9 in obj_sansb_body. There's also a unused 6th Alarm event to the generator objects, which spawns randomly positioned bones in the middle of the screen to dodge every 50 frames. Because the platforms are randomly generated in size and position, it can be impossible to avoid getting hit.

Vertical and Horizontal Bones - Fixed bullet patterns with bones coming from positions vertically and horizontally. To dodge, you must maneuver around the bones. Accessible as attack type 10 in obj_sansb_body. There also exists a variant, accessible as attack type 11 in obj_sansb_body, which is faster and has a different pattern. There is also a "hell" variation of the first kind of the attack, accessible by setting the hell variable in obj_sansb_body to true, which is harder.

Random Gaster Blasters Variant - The sprites for the blasters are squished to be thin, much like one of the final version's variants, although this time the blasters spawn and shoot faster. This can be seen if a obj_gasterbl_gen is spwaned with type 0, which is not utilized by any coded attack in obj_sansb_body.

Final Attacks Variants - There is also "hell" variants of some of the final attacks. The attack where you have to short hop in between a gap in bones (attack type 1) and the one where you hop over a small white bone with a long blue one right after (attack type 3) is faster when the hell variable in obj_sansb_body is set to true. The platforming attack with bones and platforms scrolling across the screen horizontally has a variant where the platforms scroll slower, which is type 0 of obj_3platgen.

Worth to note that there exists an unused pitch for Megalovania in the code, which is also demonstrated in the video in result of the usage of the skip debug variable. Here's the related code, in the Create event of obj_sansb:

if (skip == true)
{
    con = -1
    with (mypart1)
        bounce = 1
    obj_borderparent.visible = true
    global.msg[0] = scr_gettext("obj_sansb_90") // * Skipped ahead.
    global.mnfight = 3
    global.myfight = 0
    global.faceemotion = 0
    normalfight = 1
    obj_heart.visible = true
    global.flag[271] = 1
    caster_loop(global.batmusic, 0.95, 0.95) // <-- here
}

Mettaton EX

The Mettaton EX battle has some unused attacks. These can be seen if obj_mettattackgen is spawned with the respective attack types set in a global variable called global.attacktype.

Hmmm...
To do:
Explain better

Attack type 1 - Columns of boxes

Attack type 2 - Columns of boxes weaving from left to right

Attack type 3 - Some arms weaving from left to right?

Attack type 4 - Literally just legs

Attack type 5 - Activated legs weaving from left to right

Attack type 6 - Boxes and bombs scattered everywhere

Attack type 7 - Boxes and bombs scattered everywhere, but faster

Attack type 8 - Tightened bullet board, bombs appear from left and right

Attack type 9 - Less tightened bullet board, bombs appear from left, center and right

Attack type 10 - Columns of boxes and bombs approaching fast. The pattern is replayed after a while

Attack type 11 - Columns of blocks that go upwards when shot

Attack type 12 - Columns of blocks that go upwards when shot, plus sparkle bullets which only appear in the Alphys Lost Soul fight in the final game

Attack type 13 - A lot of mini Mettatons throwing hearts

Attack type 14 - Another lot of mini Mettatons throwing hearts

Attack type 15 - Mini Mettatons throwing sparkles

Attack type 16 - Mini Mettatons throwing sparkles again

Attack type 50 - Some arms with moving yellow block?

Attack type 51 - Fast disco ball

Attack type 52 - Boxes and bombs scattered everywhere, again; also kinda fast

Attack type 55 - Yet again, literally just legs

Dog Error Screens

Two screens featuring the annoying dog are present in the game. These are used as "error handlers" in case something goes wrong, such as loading a corrupted save file or entering an invalid or otherwise inaccessible room with an edited save.

The song "mus_dance_of_dog" is used on one of the error handler screens (the left one), at a random pitch. The other song is "mus_sigh_of_dog".

Unused Item Drop

In the internal monster setup code, there are mentions of item rewards and the chance for an item to drop. This never happens within the game, leaving these global variables unused: itemrewardid and itemrewardchance. Below is an example of the variables in the code.

global.monstername[myself] = scr_gettext("monstername_3") // monstername_3 = "Froggit"
global.monstermaxhp[myself] = 20
global.monsterhp[myself] = 20
global.monsteratk[myself] = 4
global.monsterdef[myself] = 1
global.xpreward[myself] = 10
global.goldreward[myself] = 20
global.itemrewardid = 1
global.itemrewardchance = 50

Old Toriel Dusting Data

scr_getvapordata contains a piece of ASCII pixel art of Toriel's death sprite, spr_torielboss_kneelsmile2, (mostly) composed of 0s (representing black) and 1s (representing white). Along with other data contained in the script, this was meant to be interpreted by an old version of the game's sprite duster, obj_vaporized, which produces dust particles according to it; the final game instead uses obj_vaporized_new like all monsters other than Undyne and Glad Dummy. (The following representation of the data cuts it to lines with 72 characters each, which is half of 144, the original sprite's width.)

Obscured Assets

Snowdin Building Mockups

Placeholder Snowed Inn Lobby

Hidden under the image for the Snowed Inn lobby is a mockup of the rooms layout made of the Snowdin tiles.

Placeholder Snowed Inn Rooms

Like the lobby, there is a placeholder layout for the rooms in Snowed Inn, featuring some not so comfortable beds...

Placeholder Librarby Inside

A mockup of the inside of Snowdin's Librarby, being made of snow and bits of trees.

Early MTT Hotel Outside

Hidden under the MTT Hotel outside image in the respective room (room_fire_hotelfront_2) is an early version of the hotels outside, being made up of tiles instead of being one image. The ground tiles are placeholders, using the ice cave ground, a tile that was used as a placeholder throughout the entirety of Hotland.

Early CORE Entrance

Hmmm...
To do:
Relocate this somewhere, this doesn't seem to fit here.

Undertale room fire precore hidden area.png

Hidden in the right side of the room for CORE's entrance (room_fire_precore) is what seems to be a placeholder version of the entrance, made of Hotland assets. Yes, the background (should) loop like that in the game.

Oddities

Annoying Dog's Sale Price

The Annoying Dog can be sold for 999G and haggled up to 1251G (the highest sale price of any item in the game!), but it will disappear if taken out of the room it spawns in, so this can never be seen on a normal playthrough.

Mettaton's House

Mettaton's bed, upper walls, and TV have collision, but it's impossible to get in that section of the room.

Death By Glamour Speed

Mettaton EX's battle theme, Death By Glamour, is played at 0.95x speed after the pre-battle intro cutscene, but plays at 0.97x speed instead if Mettaton's dialogue is skipped; this is the value set in scr_battlegroup, the script that defines all of the encounters in the game. The version in the OST plays at full 1x speed, matching neither of these.

Inu Slots Coin Donation Saving

When you save in the Xbox One version, the game stores the value of flag 299 (the amount of coins you donated to the casino Dog Shrine) to global.xbox_coins_donated, then writes the latter into the save file. When you load, the number is read into the latter, and only to the latter for some utterly baffling reason. What's more, the global variable doesn't appear to be used otherwise.

Toy Knife Room Name

The room in the Ruins where the Toy Knife can be found is internally called room_ruins18OLD. This is the only instance of a room labelled as old being used, and there's no non-old version of the room.

Internal Sound File Names

Hmmm...
To do:
Make the explanation simpler.

There are alternate file names for some sounds and music in the game's code, in the format music/*.ogg, from the phase of development where the game used GameMaker 8 and played external sounds and music through an extension. When the game was migrated to use GameMaker: Studio, it was changed to use GameMaker's native sound system for that instead. So to not change already existing code using the sound extension, compatibility scripts were made, one being caster_load, which converts the filenames that were originally used to pointers to GameMaker sounds by calling scr_getmusindex.

Music/Sound Metadata

As with the demo, music/sound files have some metadata. The ENCODER field seems to be always overwritten by GameMaker: Studio, but there's still some information from FL Studio's LAME encoder.

The "Snoopy, Come Home" metadata refers to the fact that both snd_hit and snd_victor are sampled from the song "Snoopy, Come Home" from the eponymous soundtrack, which Toby seemingly took from an online rip of the original vinyl without changing the metadata.

Developer Oversights

Mettaton EX Battle Essay

Mettaton EX has an "essay" question where you can type in text and have him comment on it. Unfortunately, typing "x" or "z" ends the essay unless CTRL is held down, leaving some words (in most playthroughs) untypable. This was corrected in the PlayStation 4, PlayStation Vita, and Nintendo Switch versions of the game, as they use an on-screen keyboard.

The following words can't be triggered:

  • sexy
  • foxy
  • tantaliz (covers both "tantalizing" and "tantalize")

Naming the Fallen Human

In the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita versions of the game, entering the name "Gaster" will result in a crash, rather than the intended restart of the game.
