Deltarune Chapter 2 SPAMTON [Pipis] (Easter Eggs, Secrets, References & Spamton NEO Boss Fight) 

We just announced Alice is Dead: Hearts and Diamonds! A *complete* remake and expansion of the original trilogy. Please give that one a Wishlist, and help us build some hype ► store.steampowered.com/app/1826770/Alice_is_Dead_Hearts_and_Diamonds/

Fun fact: It’s almost directly implied that Spamton might be the way he is in part because of Queen having him thrown in the acid river. She mentions that the acid causes things to shrink, which could explain Spamton’s tiny size compared to other Addisons, and could also explain why he is obsessed with being BIG. Also, sweet, cap’n and kk say that spamton hired them to sneak into queen's mansion, and when you ask him why he doesn’t go, he says that the men inside would do something to him, referring to swatch and the swatchlings, who probably were the ones to throw him in the river. And finally, of course there’s the lines, I USED TO BE NOTHING BUT THE E-MAIL GUY, NOW I'M THE [[It Burns! Ow! Stop! Help Me! It Burns!]] GUY! and VACATIONING IN [Burning acid] WHILE YOU SOAK IN THE [Hyperlink Blocked].

Fun Fact: Spamton has extra dialogue if you select OUR DEAL twice in a row before buying the KeyGen. Here's how it goes: KRIS!! BUY [KeyGen] FROM ME AND GO TO QUEEN'S MANSION'S [Luxurious Basement Apartment]!! WHAT!? GO MYSELF!? KRIS!!!!! NO!!!!! THE MEN INSIDE WOULD THE MEN INSIDE WOULD

Additionally, if you were to buy the thorn ring, spare Berdly and go to the first Spamton battle and fight him, he’ll say “You think you can do that just because you bought my commemorative ring. You should’ve at least bought 2”

7:44 Can I just point out how genius the entrance for Spamton's shop is? Every shop in Undertale and Deltarune have a little fade out and fade in effect as a transition from screen to screen, but Spamton's shop doesn't even has that, he just pops up out of nowhere on your screen with that creepy face and creepy, melancholic music after going through some creepily silent rooms with just the sound of the wind before entering it, it just makes the weirdness of Spamton even more apparent and just shows how Toby pays attention to the tiniest of details, what a genius!

Ive heard it said that kris yelling could be because they are scared what will happen to them after seeing spamton collapse without his strings. I think kris might've related more to spamton than any other character snd so when spamton achieved the goal that they also had and collapsed because of it, it was terrifying to them

Spamton keeps referencing his "brands" when you talk to him in his shop. When you buy the bow tie from Swatch's shop, the description says that its tag is cut off, implying it was once a Spamton-brand bow tie.

31:38 When you're skipping through the first Swatchling's dialogue, you can see "There was a mint under you electric cage. Don't make a mistake, this is not a hotel" seeming to refer to the named-by-Asgore song "Can You Even Call This A Hotel, There's Not Even A Mint On My Pillow Or Anything"

“Cungadero” a small red car with a yellow lightning bolt design. Could be used as a replacement word for swears (also has Mexican connotations, I think they use it for when they forget the word for something, eg.a lot of English speaking people say ‘thingymabob’)

Strangely, Spamton seems to realize that he's part of a video game (or some sort of pre-written narrative, at least) at the end of chapter 2's Snowgrave route. He even seemingly gets mad that he was only supposed to be a secret boss. It reminds me of the part in Inscryption where an NPC complains that he didn't get to be a Boss Fight. Combined with Ralsei being worried when you don't check on Susie like you're 'supposed' to, it does imply that some in-game character is specifically setting up the story to go the way it does, and that the Snowgrave route is messing that up.

I think it's interesting that both Spamton and Jevil are largely forgotten by the world as a whole. Jevil was forgotten locked away in a dungeon, and Spamton apparently lost the massive amount of wealth he had accumulated in the blink of an eye. This could be an interesting parallel to Gaster, who had everything he stood for yanked away from him, and he was kept separated from everyone by being scattered across time and space.

Spamton NEO releasing smoke as he’s defeated could be a reference to Mettaton EX when he releases smoke as the battle goes on and he loses his limbs

At 21:42, when mentioning the taste of pain, it reminded me of how pain was a possible favorite flavor for the vessel. Probably means nothing but I felt like pointing it out.

I'm just now realizing how unsettling it feels to walk out of a somewhat long, emotional, and creepy sidequest to then have one of the characters try to convince you that it didn't mean anything. the heck is wrong with you ralsei

I realized the actual meaning of the mural of the clouds and sun, it could be in reference to Spamton objective of reaching the sky into heaven.

In the console versions of Chapter 2, you can still do the F1 trick during the fight with regular Spamton, even though you can't press the F1 key on console. Instead you need to press R3 (i.e., push down on the right control stick), which will summon the little Spamton angel and heal Kris just like on the PC version.

You know, I'm surprised that no one mentions that at the very bottom of the deltarune/Undertale website, toby states "if you find a pillow at the bottom of a garbage can, please don't take it away". Sure in this case it might be spamton wondering from garbage can to garbage can, but still. Also teenie tiny tid bit, spamtons glasses color match with the only other two characters eye colors who've sold stuff in a garbage heap, catty and bratty

WAAAAA THE INTRO WAS SO COOL the "i'll leave some of the heavier theorising at the [basement entrance] for now" bit was so clean omg

The Frayed Bowtie is actually not even THAT bad, since it gives a small amount of damage, which is currently not very common for an armor to have, and it also gives extra resistance against those sound waves attacks (or against the “cat” element, it’s a bit weird). I actually wonder if this “element types” mechanic will be more fleshed out in future chapters, since there are also some unobtainable item that supposedly give resistance to certain elements.

9:34 That rain in his eyes is actually pretty significant because of the song from the 2nd Sans date (It's Raining Somewhere Else) and what the goner that looks like Monster Kid says if you bring him an umbrella, "An umbrella? But it's not raining..."

The fascinating thing about Deltarune is that most of the characters from Undertale don't seem as happy or fulfilled in Deltarune, like they know they don't feel like their best selves. Meanwhile, there are characters in Undertale that were swept under the rug or unhappy. But in Deltarune, their dreams come true and they become their best selves. Deltarune is Undertale flipped on its head and more.

I seriously hope every secret has the flavor text “The air crackles with freedom”

I feel like the spamton text in [[brackets]] are spamton taking words from ads, kinda like bumblebee does with songs on the radio in that one movie.

I think Undertale/Deltarune are two of the deepest and most detailed games I've ever seen.

21:19 Oh hey, that's my footage! I'm glad I uploaded that video so people can still see what the glitch was like prior to the patch haha. It was so dumb but so much fun. For the record, don't worry at all about using the footage, I'm honestly kind of honored! Feels good knowing I was able to document a part of this game's history.

I wonder if keeping characters like jevil and spamton "alive" will have an affect on the later chapters. 9:35 also, it's raining somewhere else...? Eh? Maybe??

Also, additionally: You can speak with the black walls in the room in the basement in wich the NEO body is. The black spaces there. When you speak with them, the text says "There's nothing interesting." and you can do that with any of the black spaces there. I always wonder why that is instead of just having no text there at all.

i think the bigger foreshadowing of future bosses that nobody talks about is the line, "WE DON'T NEED ANYONE ELSE!! WE DON'T NEED [Easels] OR [CRTs]!!"; while those are two seemingly random objects, spamton mentions them as if they were *people*, which i think is the damning evidence that those things will be future darkners, combined with the heavy implication that kris's old tv (possibly a CRT tv) will be a character in chapter 3

From the way I understand things, I'm like 90% certain that Spamton was contacted by Mike first, who proceeded to help him and them probably end up scamming him which screwed him over big time. Afterwards he was contacted by Gaster who told him about the machine in the basement, and probably how it would lead him to "heaven". If it had JUST been Gaster who he had called, it wouldn't make sense for them to be speaking again after he allegedly "disappeared". I think it's implied he met the Knight at some point as well? I'm not quite sure about that though

Something I found a bit unsettling is if you remove the sound file for Spamtons shop, the phone never does the ringing animation. I can't really confirm this i saw a video of it if i find it i'll give the link. There's just something terrifying about the shop being completely silent and the phone never ringing. I've also had this theory that considering the next chapter is supposedly tv theme, we'll be able to fight Mew Mew, and considering she can apparently control people to help them with their problems it would be a cool mechanic if Ralsie or Susie were to be enemies for a bit of time, similar to Berdlys fight with Queen EDIT: To add to the theory. Most people are focusing more on "Mike" because Jevil mentioned Queen in chapter one. However, it's also possible that Jevil and Spamton foreshadow the secret bosses of the next game as well. Considering that "The Circus" uses the same leitmotif as "Dialtone", I theorize that the next secret boss is foreshadowed by a character's theme rather than being mentioned directly. So the fact that the "Dummy!" motif is in Spamtons theme, It's possible that the secret boss might be related to one of the ghosts TL;DR Secret bosses might foreshadow each other by leitmotifs in their side songs EDIT 2: (God, I'm talking so much) So i have a few more details. So far both secret bosses have similar characteristics, Both are like 30 pixels tall excluding their hat or hair, both are discarded things (Joker cards are hardly used in card games, and spam emails are often deleted, hence him living in the trash), and their names are puns. This comment is just me theorizing out loud at this point lmao

"It pulls the strings and makes them ring" has a sort of double meaning. Spamton pulls the strings attached to him and makes them ring, but another interpretation is "it (Mike) pulls the strings and makes them (the phones) ring." Implying that someone figuratively used their influence to make Spamton into a big shot

I've never seen anyone point this out but Spamton looks a lot like Bob Sparker, one of the inspirations for Mettaton, so I'm pretty sure Spamton was also directly inspired by that character Also the way Spamton slides offscreen at 27:23 is just like the mad dummy at the end of the fight, it's even the same sound effect

Fun fact The last three lines of spamton's dialogue when the player defeats him violently change if the player bought the thorn ring from him, of course this can only be seen in an aborted snowgrave route

At 21:52 the boxes look like ridiculously simplified Spamton faces. This isn't a theory, I just think it's funny.

5:27 Interesting idea, I don't believe anyone has suggested "sound" yet. Especially since it lowers the defense of the balls of yarn, the whip itself (physical), the little bolts of lightning, the "flying heads," basically all the bullets that come from Spamton Neo (both routes, including Funny Cheats damage), Tasque, and Tasque Manager. Also same problem as "strings," I'm not sure why it wouldn't protect against "normal" Spamton's bullets when he's yelling words at you.

Spamton NEO fight has a lot in common with Mettaton EX fight: - Both includes yellow soul mode - Both have some flavor texts where audience is mentioned, however Spamton seems to have no audience while Mettaton has a lot of audience - Some of their attacks has a lot in common: objects what can be destroyed by shooting, heart that can be shooted for visual damage and Spamton heads / Mettatons who shoot - Their battle themes have many leitmotifs which mostly include their previous themes

This isn’t particularly noteworthy or anything, but after Spamton is spared and his wires are cut, he’s hanging by the vines on the wall. The strings on his neo outfit were green, just like the vines. To me, that says that he regained those strings, that maybe he needs that kind of support to survive, or that maybe he’s incapable of doing anything on his own? Make of it what you will

The thing that I wonder about Spamton is whether there is significance to whether he uses [One Bracket] vs [[Two Brackets]].

I wonder if over time the player’s relationship with Kris will change depending on how much our choices align with the choices Kris would have made. Like eating the moss and picking the most Kris-like dialogue options. Maybe then we eventually get along with Kris as the story progresses. But picking choices that go most against Kris, like with things like the Snowgrave route, maybe Kris turns on the player then.

Didn’t Jevil say “the true power of NEO” or something like that in his voice lines? I remember reading that on his fandom wiki. Also I believe that NEO IS actually very powerful in defense, the player was just more powerful as they gained more LOVE. We were able to kill everyone else (sans and Chara “killing” the player) in one hit after all.

Something that wasn't mentioned about keygen: Key genertors often played music while the user waited to for the computer to generate the key. Usually, it was chiptune music. Thats why that YTP had this music. In addition, keygen music is now sometimes used as a name to the genre fo songs that used to play in keyGens

I think the mannequin actually protects you from ALL of Spamton’s and Tasque Manager’s attacks.

"and the Lighteners never even looked his way." is such a depressing line for my scrunkly scrimblo, but it's simulatenously funny because, if he was in this reality instead, things would be different. I mean, come on, do you see how the entire fanbase lost their minds for Spamton? He's just a leetle boye

The first time you leave the duck in the acid river (when that giant hand is blocking the way), you can check the duck, and it says "Looks like a certain bird is having a ride on the acid river". I think it is a callback to what Queen says it would happen if Noelle didn't join her, when we arrive at the palace. Maybe it's not that meaningful, but I think it means she wasn't going to do anything with Berdly, and THAT was what she was talking about. (Sorry for the bad english)

8:56 Jevil's battle also includes the text "Jevil is laughing incomprehensibly", which is similar to how Spamton avoids saying the name of the 'stranger' he made a deal with.

2:53 Not to add more depression to Spamton's story, but do you all think he's possibly talking about something that happened to him? It sure seemed awfully specific...

you said there is "rain behind spamton's eyes"; there is a song from UT called "it's raining somewhere else" supposedly connected to Goners and their existence and lack of in parallel universes; could it be that Mike is a Goner who remained in files and can communicate trough Spamton?

That broken sword might be a reference to Homestuck and the character Dave Strider, who uses a broken sword as his weapon, and because he specifically uses broken swords he can weild an ultimate weapon

19:24 I tried looking up if "cungadero" is some obscure slang I hadn't heard of, but the only uses of the word I could find before Chapter 2's release were a single random tweet, and a bunch of social media accounts that changed their name to a Deltarune quote afterwards (which is still included in the search because the page itself was made earlier).

Good to know that even after you defeat spamton he is still alive.

15:56 I'm the Mike crackhead theory guy, but I never would of made the connection to the file name being "friend" and Mike being mentioned in the friend option. Good catch!

I don't see this mentioned very often, and I don't recall if this has been covered before in this channel, but in the underground area the low drone that plays as music is actually Your Best Nightmare's intro, played in what seems to be cello or some kind of stringed instrument. You can speed up the song to confirm this, too.

Thanks for putting so much effort into documenting this game! PS the intro is awesome :D

8:46 knowing that Spamton is afraid of clowns makes me want to see him and jevil interact even more! 💵🃏

I always thought the pipis thing was a reference to Griffin and also the internet’s fixation/malware or spam emails related to the “little blue pill” but that’s just me

Btw, deltarune has been mirroring Undertale, but kinda backwards, with chapter one resembling new home, and chapter 2 resembling core.

“Now’s your chance” and “BIG SHOT” have the same rhythm as “World Revolving,” which is a sped up version of “Don’t Forget.”

I'd just like to point out that the real world species of freshwater clam commonly referred to as pipis are abundant in Queensland Australia. QUEENS-land!

29:03 It really seems like Kris pitched the idea of wearing Susie's jacket.

You missed one tiny insignificant but really funny piece of dialogue, which is once you beat Spamton and go back to the trash zone, when you talk to Trashy, his dialogue changes to "There were a group of guys looking for you to the west. They were muttering something about muttering something about deals" It's just really funny to me for some reason

I’m STILL learning bits about Undertale to this DAY. Wow

No one ever talks about just how many references to the Mad Dummy Spamton's songs and quotes have and it's honestly pretty astonishing

A few days ago I replayed the Octo Expansion from Splatoon 2 and the phone reminds me now of Spamtom

I just discovered a dialogue glitch in Deltarune Chapter 2. So after you enter the Dark World (the normal one not the Cyber World) , when I was talking to Susie , at the end of the dialogue, when it said "KRIS HURRY UP" , there was this weird thing that happened with Ralsei. He said, "Fine , I'll guess we'll try to not let you die of lonliness". The same line when Susie was talking to Ralsei. Ralsei had his delfault face ( the one where he had a straight expression and looking a quite serious ) , it is a weird dialogue glitch and I was freaked out by it too. NOTE: THIS WAS AFTER I HUGGED THE RALSEI DUMMY AND I WENT BACK FOR SOME EXTRA DIALOGUE I just wanted to share the strange glitch story with you guys!

You know, when I first found the door to Spamton's shop, I had no clue what it was. Before meeting Spamton, I thought it looked a lot like Gaster's door in Waterfall, and that really unnerved me.

I start to think that Undertale is a game Asriel makes in Deltarune. And since it's an indie game he takes characters from his hometown to add them to their game. That's how the 2 games are connected to eachother.

Imagine if Spamton broke down your door, starts playing Big Shot, and asks you “DO YOU WANT A [[BIG SHOT]]?”

Hi, I think I have a good question. I have been wondering for a while how some characters in deltarune are aware of others, like for example: Jevil mentions Queen in his fight, but they are kinda in different dark worlds. My conclusion is that earlier they lived in the same dark world, but now my question is what happened that the orginal dark world shattered into smaller ones.

"The phone in Spamton's shop were supposed to look like the ones Ness uses to call his dad" Game theory: I'm about to end this [[BIG SHOTS]] whole career. *Inhales* NESS IS THE SON OF SPAMTON

Characters like these put the ending theme "Don't forget" in a much darker light. Someone said that Jevil and Spamton are basically this world's Gaster. Had everything at one point in time and had it all taken seemingly instantly. And now, they're bonus characters that you have to dig for information on. In other words, forgotten by the main world in whole. I keep hearing that people are saying those lyrics were probably referencing Ralsei watching over Kris, but what if it's not? What if it's those forgotten characters watching Kris, not wanting to be forgotten anymore? That puts a whole new slew of theories in this game

I love that intro I cannot wait to watch the rest of the video

Holy crap I didn't realise Ralsei references chocolate, butterscotch, and cinnamon... The thing Toriel's pie was made out of, as well as Chara's favourite food that Toriel kept in her fridge. Ralsei......... You're so sus.

Butterscoch and cinnimon for the cake flavors are references to Toriel in Undertale, I think, with that Butterscotch-Cinnamon Pie. But. Juice might be a reference to the name of the pie in battles. It's called Butt. Pie.

Spamton Neo: “Didn’t you know Neo was famous for it’s high defense.” also mettaton Neo: One Shot Edit: I think the spamton Neo body was made by Asriel because he seems to be making undertale

25:55 ohhhh this part is interesting. Spamton neo is actually a cat enemy, just like tasque. Maybe it has something to do with it?

14:05 I always thought it was implied that's where you shove berdley's body in the Weird/Snowgrave route, hence the strange flavortext

30:28 there is some dialog change after that, which is something about trying to make Susie hug Kris I think? It goes something like (What why me, hug Ralsei You don't really gave hug much so it's more valuable hell no I'm not hugging anyone)

I'm not so sure about this, or if anyone else has already said it, but Spamtom NEO's beta attacks got long hands. that would give more meaning to the dialogue where Susie says "Are we really not going to talk about that? That was god damn weird, Puppets... strings... Hands..."

This was a great comprehensive video!! I really enjoyed watching this, and the intro was pretty cool lol

6:52 I thought Swatch was about to say “in order to get the look right” and then go off on a whole spiel about fashion or whatever before catching themselves

I viewed Swatch’s basement comment as a reference to “There’s no basement in the Alamo”

About the egg and the man behind the tree... 1st chapter is write in present, 2nd chapter is write in past. Maybe the next chapter is write in future? If this is it that could confirm a bit more that the man is Gaster, bcause of how the void from the thing he created (dont remember name) messes up with space and time

Not sure if anyone has pointed this out yet, but during Spamton's shop song, one of the jittery bits is Gaster's theme (you can hear it at 8:16 in the background)

Fun fact (unrelated to Spamton): sweet looks suspiciously like sound master, which is a character from the web series cucumber quest, which toby made a song for.

"why did HE deserved this?" he looks more original then Addisons so probably the one behind secret bosses was like "this will be good Target"

I don't know if this is any relevant, but the French word for urine is "pipis". It's more aof a casual term that kids use to describe it, but yeah. That's actually the reason why the "pipis room" is called as such in the original video - "pipis room" is just a way french kids refer to the bathroom. Probably not that relevant when it comes to Spamton, but uhhh.... Cool trivia, I guess ?

thanks for making this! I always look forward to these videos about undertale and deltarune :)

Is it just me or are the plugs in the basement smiling similar to the flowey boss fight intro were he opens his eyes?

15:40 thanks for the heart attack

30:45 It Wasnt Exactly The Same, At The End Kris Asks Susie For A Hug

very well made video!! ive never seen anyone else mention that poster before even though i feel like its important detail!

Maybe the broken sword is a homestuck ref. because when bro strider breaks Daves sword, the sprite looks really similar.

"I'll leave some more details on that in [The Basement Entrance]" That was great

noelle saying the dealmaker is familiar makes a lot of sense since the lore from the spamton sweepstakes reveals spamton and noelle have actually interracted on email

been waiting for this!! thank you so much for another great vid!!

If it's raining in some kind of weird space in Spamton's head, that means it's literally raining somewhere else. I think [[HYPERLINK BLOCKED]] could be determination, freedom, or a body. Especially since Spamton seems to have some understanding of the unique nature of Kris' existence & could be offering different things to the two entities known as Kris. The "Friend" in that file name is probably either a reference to Spamton or Flowey. Or both considering references to those two tend to go together. The idea that Spamton's "VERY, VERY" is a Gaster reference is supported by the fact that his line & Gaster's are both typed like they're more sentences than they actually are & they're both in all caps.

The secret boss, I have no proof but I think it might be the pie Susie and toriel bake

Amazing video, so many little references, secrets, lore things, and jokes made by Toby that I easily missed!

15:08 Just looking at it, this feels like it would reference omega flowey's introduction to the boss fight.

12:10 to add to that, this ganre of songs is called "tracker songs" they're commonly used in keygens and shady installment programs and the song ganre itself was illegal until like, the 90's (I might be off on the time there) there are programs to make these kinds of songs, they're called trackers and I want to learn how to use one of those
