Hey, remember way back when when I said something was afoot in the Core ?



jazaaboo designed the monster that falls, it's called a Pterofractl! |D It loves math and "inventing" and "solving" math problems, but actually knows nothing about even basic math and generally has no idea what it's doing most of the time. It’s a poor flier because it always gets too caught up in 'calculating' flight vectors and angles and parabolas and such, thus why it didn’t fly itself to safety.

I was originally going to use the mole in the hardhat from the Mettaton Hotel, but when I went and checked it was completely wrong for what I had in mind, so instead I used a really obscure cameo from an old Sierra game I’m willing to bet nobody has played, haha. If any of you recognize him I'll be very surprised.

Asgore is wearing one of his old beta outfits I saw in the art book for a change of pace. I'd get on Gaster's case for how stupid and pointlessly dangerous the Core's design is, but honestly it's not even as stupid and dangerous as the Lambda Core from Half-Life, and those scientists didn't even have magic as an excuse.

Why does falling into lava erase a monster's existence from history? Why was Pterofractl a lost soul?

Don't think it's lava. The core seems to manipulate spacetime in order to generate power.

ChaosShadow In reply to ??? [2017-01-02 10:46:12 +0000 UTC]

So would you say that monster is a Rorschach test on fire, in addition to being a day-glo pterodactyl? Or perhaps a heart-shaped box of strings and wires? A badass fucking fractal?

...well, he's certainly not going to save the day (or sweep all our fears away (can't change the world in a tiny way)).

so I'm glad this notion has been put into comic format.

surely there's at least one apparent problem if an area that should be well manned is revealed to actually be understaffed? and no one ever did anything about that? why, it'd seem a bit boneheaded of the doc to simply not care about it~

Sooo, Gaster. You WILL shoot lasers into children's eyes, resulting in headaches, blindness and hallucinations, to explore a theoretical concept... and beat a child into a semiconscious delirium, to discourage the theoretical event of a child using blue magic against you... but you DON'T see the point in installing guardrails on narrow, shifting platforms above a lethal drop, in an area frequented by monsters that show signs of being profoundly mentally handicapped.

Somebody get this guy some hard liquor, and make sure he ingests enough to affect his judgment. From where it is now, the quality of his decision-making and conclusion-drawing skills has nowhere to go but up.

StephOBrien In reply to zarla [2017-01-03 05:31:38 +0000 UTC]

Sounds like the Peacekeepers from Farscape. "If you screw up on the last day of simulator training, you die."

"What, the simulator kills you? ...Why does that not surprise me?"

Though, back to Undertale, that could make an interesting backstory for Asgore. Maybe his father was the king at the time of the war, and was highly zealous in his pursuit of security - hence the dangerous traps like spikes. Asgore disapproved, and later worked on getting rid of the more hazardous puzzles, much to the confusion of Gaster and the dismay of Papyrus. After all, children LOVE deadly spikes! If you meet any children, you should ask them.

Aww I could see that, haha. ASGORE DOESN'T SEE THE NEED FOR DANGEROUS PUZZLES, HONESTLY

Papyrus however ONLY knows dangerous puzzles practically, haha

StephOBrien In reply to zarla [2017-01-04 18:54:43 +0000 UTC]

Who needs dangerous puzzles when you have Undyne, and monsters who can kill you by accident while trying to clean you?

Just don't use conveyor belts, because they are awful and should never be used.

Well The Core is a Magic-Geothermal Plant.... I think it's the infusion of magic with the temperature of the lava that's causing the dissapearances... I mean Magic sorta bends reality... and that much, on top of lava... >.> well

My sister and I played that game to death when we were little, to the point where I heard that guy's voice in my head when I was learning the periodic table of elements in school.

On a side note, it would be interesting to see one of your more serious/dramatic comics with Gaster's normal head instead of the Lost Soul version.
