#doublescramble

For the record it's slow going but I guess I can give a bit of an update

The entire opening scene is done! The main hurdle rn is art assets for the final boss and just like, sitting down and doing it.

The breakdowns looks like:

-Opening Scene (done)

-Fight part 1 (main & background sprite done, need background sprites & bullets)

-Fight part 2 (main sprite done)

-Ending Scene (pacifist walkback)

-Ending Sequence (Bring it in, Guys!)

Life this past year has been EXTREMELY hectic for me, and a lot of the time I get off has been used to develop my YouTube channel (ConnorWing)

It's been brought to our attention that there needs to be a full credits list for the characters / concepts / designs that appear in DoubleTale: Rewritten and DoubleScramble! Complete list under the cut (both for spoilers, and bc it's long..)

Things are going in sprite comic land! Had a bit of a block considering the size of the next part, but I've been able to figure out a way to break it down into smaller chunks. It's still a lil ways off, but hey I'm trying out here.

I think huge reasons why I think I might like it more, is because I really like the more tighter focus (imo) on characters (I like/love DT, and like the characters and focus characters do get, but DT can have/has gotten quite a lot of characters at this point. Which isn't a bad thing ofc! But yeah) and the role swap of characters; with some of the being very unique and/or very fitting role swaps. Like Undyne being the Queen/in Asgore's role and Alphys I think in Toriel's. But in these role swaps, the characters keep more so their original personality, while also being affected by the differences of their world. I also really like how the role changes can really affect stuff too.

Besides Undyne and Alphys, I also really REALLY love Sans as Chara (idk, I just love Sans and Chara stuff, because I find them similar in a lot of ways, and I just like their dynamic and stuff, and I find Sans in Chara's role to be really interesting and quite fitting for him honestly) and Paps as Flowey/Asriel (which is honestly just fitting too, and even more so with Sans as Chara. Though, Sans as Chara and Paps as Flowey/Asriel is also just tragic and dark considering Asriel and Chara's whole thing and if you have read the DS fic. Things don't really end well sadly between Sans and Paps in that).

And I still really like Cter as Sans and Chara as Paps basically, and their relationship. Sans and Frisk's relationship is also just as interesting and cool/"cool" to me. And in DoubleTale, the DoubleScramble fic, and DoubleTime; quite a messed up relationship. And I am betting might become so in this comic too. Anyways, one of my favorite relationships, up there with like, Cter and Chara's, and the relationships between Undyne and Alphys and their (dead, kind of/mostly) kids. To name some. I also like Gaster and Grillby's new roles (esp. love Grillby as Gaster) and Mettaton in Alphy's role is just amazing. He brings so much life and drama to it. To name some more.

Like, I really like the take on role swaps in this, as much, if not, maybe more, even though I like/love them too, as StoryShift, and some takes on Underswaps (more so the takes on Underswap, that have the characters more closer to their original personality or have characters being a mix of their original personality and the character the swapped with. Because I find the comparison more apt in this case, and because I tend to like those kind of role swaps more. Even though I can like, even love, other kinds of swaps and role swaps too). Basically, I really love DoubleScramble, excited to see the rest of the Pacifist route (which, I don't think is that much more now?), and to see the other route(s) possibly. Spoilers:

I am both excited and scared for the genocide route (like, I am interested to see it, but I also don't want Frisk to ruin their happy ending basically; which is something Sans wasn't happy about either. And Sans to break. Cter ofc wasn't happy either). Also, as someone who read the DS fic, and remembers the final fight between Frisk and Cter in that, and how Sans had gotten so corrupted and broken by that point, that he wouldn't even let Frisk give up to Cter anymore as a kind of "punishment" for Frisk (seriously, that part/those parts were jusut chilling. Both Cter and Sans were so scary at that point. Then they stuff that came after the JH fight. Oh man), I am both looking forward to and nervous to see what your take on the Geno route will be (I know it won't be exactly the same as the fic though). No rush though; I am just excited for more.

I can't believe I missed the update, man now I feel bad!

I haven't gone and hand translated the WingDings that Sans refused to read, and I think it might be better if I don't? Leave some things as at least mild surprises I suppose.

The text doesn't really feel like Doctor Fire hazard, closer to Gaster speak. I suppose it explains how Cter and G know each other this time around...

To think, we're two updates (ISH) away from the end of Pacifist. If I were to guess, we'd see one chapter of the various runs, including the original Double!Scramble 'Fake F#cking smile' scene...

Super happy to see updates from you!

Finally, after all this time...
