**Undertale Remake Announcement!**

Hey everyone! I’m working on an Undertale remake! Some of you in the “Chatting Area! Have fun!” might have seen my teaser. I won’t be making the entire game (that would be way too ambitious), but I’m still taking on a big challenge.

The biggest challenge is the original game’s 20x20 tile size. Since I’m working with a 16x16 tile size, everything needs to be redrawn at a smaller resolution to fit. However, the battles will be in full resolution, so I’ll need to adjust the screen resolution for those scenes. That should be manageable since tiles will hopefully not be used in battles.

I could really use some help with redrawing the tiles! @Luke, if you’re up for it, I’d love your help. For music, I was hoping @InvalidProject might be able to help. if that’s okay for you. I only need the Ruins Theme. I found a [piano sheet](https://musescore.com/nickoli_dudyo/ruins) that might help!

As for progress, I don’t have much yet. I’ve got the Frisk sprite, animations, and the first tilemap done. (Though I’ve tried making the second tilemap twice now, and both attempts mysteriously vanished…) That said, I’m really proud of how my mini-Frisk turned out!

Pro tip: For the best experience, open the game in kiosk mode. It removes the simulator, making it look so much better.

Without further ado, here’s what I’ve got so far:

> **[UNDERTALE ARCADE](https://arcade.makecode.com/S35935-34938-39089-08782)**
>
> This is a remake of Undertale inside of Makecode arcade. All the tiles has been manually downscaled from 20x20 tiles to 16x16.

PS: Drawing those stairs were a two hour long nightmare!

I dunno, making all of those alternate senarios and diolog options seems like it would take up too much memory. I like the idea, I just don’t know how you could pull it off. I thought that maybe you could condense what’s already there, but then is it even Undertale anymore?

Please. I understand your request but for the VERY last time, I am not taking any more commissions. You probably haven’t seen my 4th post about it, but I’m not taking any more art jobs. HOWEVER, I am extremely excited to see the game! It looks amazing so far 😃

Btw @Luke if you decide to help i won`t give you a massive amount of work. Ia m only asking to rescale a few tiles and maybe a sprite or two.

Really! Thank you! At the moment, I only really need these plant vines hanging down on the walls. There are three different variants. (I hope this isn’t too much.)

If you want, you could redraw the leaf pile too:

Wa- I’m flattered. But why me?

Sure, no worries, AgentBoom. I’ll just have to either make the music myself or not add it. If I end up doing it myself, it’s going to be a pretty low priority. I was planning to use the MIDI extension, but when I run @UnsignedArduino’s script, I’m not getting good results. And I don’t just mean it sounds bad. It’s playing something completely different from the original!

I even tested it with simple themes like Flowey’s, but it didn’t work at all. I’m probably just doing something wrong. 😅

Anyway, enough about that! What do you guys think of my Toriel Sprite?

 ![MiniToriel](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/3X/f/d/fd8e2aab58e9cc9edb57264e860083840768a867.png)

It’s been a really fun challenge to redraw all the characters in a smaller pixel size. I’m having a blast with it! Toriel was tricky trying to keep that motherly loo. But I think I did a pretty good job.
