Deltarune, Undertale And Penumbra Fantasm

Deltarune, Undertale and Penumbra Fantasm

Penumbra fantasm is an unreleased track that Toby fox worked on for homestuck. Motifs from it were used in other homestuck tracks like 'Doctor' and "Patient"

The original track by Toby is mostly inaccessible but there are multiple restorations of it uploaded to SoundCloud and youtube here is an example of one of these restorations.

A recording of the original MIDI file (AwakeningCrap2.mid) by Toby fox has been posted here

Toby fox did a livestream of the song in 2012. A recording of that is below

But what does this have to do with Deltarune?

Well A motif from this song has already been used in "THE HOLY" in Deltarune

It has also fairly recently been isolated in the background of 'Hopes and dreams' in undertale and seems to be in 'another medium' too.

Futhermore,

Deltarune fans including me think it may show up more in Deltarune and some think it may even be in an important boss battle or have something to do with gaster

Now just because toby has used this once in Deltarune doesn't mean it'll show up again? What makes people think it will show up again or have greater significance?

Well Years ago before Undertale and Deltarune came out in 2011, Toby was asked on social media about penumbra phantasm to which he replied "AT SHADOWS EDGE SHATTER THE TWILIGHT REVERIE" That certainly sounds like it has to do with dark worlds and we know that Toby had ideas in mind about deltarune before he made Undertale at least regarding deltarune ending which he says came to him in a dream.

W D Gaster who's fingerprints all over Deltarune is known for speaking in all caps much like the penumbra phantasm quote and thought to have (in universe/fiction) made the tweets on Toby's account shortly before chapter 1 was released.

Plus Toby fox's first ever tweet was "The edge of the shadow, where reality and dreams meet." Which not only is similar to the "twilight reverie" quote but sounds like it alludes to dark worlds even more with them being compared to dreams many times in game.

Both of these social media posts by Toby were made in 2011! The same year that Toby had the fever dream which inspired him to make Deltarune, giving us even more evidence that this track was written with Deltarune in mind.
