I love the game but i keep dying on the bear traps...i think? The screen says "You tuck forward" and kept going on (i have also check the walkthrough but i kept on dying) and the soul who was supposed to thank me doesn't appear. So if anybody knows how to get passed by this, please tell im about to go insane. Awesome game!
it's actually frostbite that is killing you. To survive, you need to chose clothes that keep should keep you warm when choosing your characters preferences, that way, you won't be stuck in an endless loop of death
I absolutely adore your games, but I do have to give some light criticism with this update.
As a player, it becomes frustrating when I set my character's appearance, then I find out later that the options provided were not just cosmetic, but have actual consequences that lead to death later in the game no matter what I do, thus forcing me to start over from scratch. I think if the death had come up very soon after setting the appearance, it wouldn't have been as frustrating and would have been a good indicator that I should consider my options more carefully. Setting the death later on in the game feels like an unfair punishment, if that makes sense?
I don't want this to come across as unjust criticism and if you have a reason for this particular death end, I would be very glad to hear it. I apologize if you did already state as much somewhere and I just didn't see it. The only answers I found were on your most recent walk through, which simply stated that my chosen dress was what led to that particular death end.
Thank you for hearing me out and thank you for developing these incredible games! I'm not actually a very big fan of Undertale and have never played it before, but your games are just so well written with such interesting branching paths, I can't help but to keep coming back for more! All the best~
I totally agree! I feel like the "death depends on your appearance" mechanic just takes away the creativity and joy while customizing your character. I wish Petal would add events where we can pick up items and use them to stay alive instead of unavoidable death from the beginning. Of course, to keep the game from being too easy, the events could highly rely on reaction time or a memory test with randomized answers every time. Anything would be better than confirming the player's fate at the character customization stage, where it's supposed to be fun.
I disagree. Although it may be annoying (and yes it happened to me too) isn't it to be expected? If you've played Petal's other games you would notice that small, trivial little things always play a role in whether or not you live. Especially since this is a horrortale fangame you should know that there will be a surplus of things that can kill you. But all I'm saying is that the criticism is quite unnecessary! It's a game, and that's really the only time your appearance even matters and well, it is logical if you think about it. How would you ever be able to survive wearing (I don't know the specific things that kill you but I'm sure it is the miniskirt, the skirt and the shorts [there are two types I think])? Legit impossible and it gives the game a bit more of a realistic aspect ontop of the fact that horrortale is a more realistic version of undertake. But, this is just my opinion on you two's opinion, don't take it to heart!
you have to die from Toriel enough times to get that option, i recommend first trusting her and then continue from there because that's how i get those options
...WHAT. Sawing the note, surprised. Hope you will gave birth to your child health and safely. Will wait for ur baby(s) to born & the next chapters(plus the IF: Mafiafell one, mweheheh)😍😍
For some reason I'm not able to go on any of the routes, I've tried everything but nothing seems to be working for that? Is anyone else having that problem?
Hey, I'm having some trouble. When I reach the part where it shows how many times I died and who I'm currently romancing for the first time, I can't move on to the next step. Is there something I'm missing?
I believe the game hasn't updated any further, as it shows the same for me, and if you look in the development log it says something about the other locations not being finished. Just make sure to save your current spot and keep an eye out for new updates! :)
I love these games, they are so fun! I just learned about Altertale, and I was wondering if you are planning on doing that soon? I just got so much gender euphoria looking at Toriel.
Okay this game is just absolutely fantastic and made me go back in all Undertale vibe, I've laughed so hard on some text this is just incredible
[ *SPOILERS BELOW ]
i just need to be sure about something ; i see the game is still in development so is it normal if I have nothing after escaping Toriel? like the page "good time to save" with the summary of what happened, relationship and all appears and then nothing, I can't continue. Is it normal because the game isn't finished yet or is it some kind of bug?
despite this not being to far in, with what is given so far is absolutely fantastic. love the conversation at the start [my only frustration I had was when trying to scroll up while the text popped, and I was dragged back down. like Siren!Sans dragging me to the water] a unique lil start and giving an excuse to lead our poor character to the game itself. felt a bit sad the soul trait gone with be determination, but that faded away after first fall and makes much sense. as no other soul trait could endure...that and also piss of a certain skeleton that I was downright cackling as I refused to perish.
with the only encounters being of flowey, and dear sweet toriel my heart truly broke once I finally got about reaching the end of the demo. she was so sweet, and also even when I fucked up I just went right back to where I was prior [I had a mental lil snort thinking if there'll also be a death tracker as in your other work of Underfell]
I cannot wait to see what you have in store for the upcoming chapters and the undertale cast met along the way!
Another great game as always! ahhh klsjksk- i cannot wait to see how you'll continue this. I just love how detailed everything is in these games and your writing style too. Your content genuinely makes me and others so happy. Plus, it isn't often that I'm able to find a good customizable mc.
I clicked into this not realizing it was smut, and that second character creator option threw me into a jet engine. I stopped playing right after the character creator, but I'm still rating 5 stars bc it was A+. I want a Dark Souls game with that choose-how-you-swear option.
I can look into different colors for the text boxes.
On the save screen - what device are you using? It works for me on PC Windows, Tablet iOS, iPhone, and Android without issue.
On the mobile, the save screen will take up the entire screen, but it lists all 8 slots for you to save / load, and there's a white x at the top right to close out.
PC. Chrome in particular. The save window is just scaled oddly large, like it's below where you can access it from like save 5 or 6. It's only on this and Siren that I and other have seen it.
Okay. So since you're on PC Chrome, are you able to zoom out? You can press and hold CNTRL on the keyboard then use the scrollwheel on your mouse, or hit the little magnifying glass up by the favorites star and zoom out.
Hey! I absolutely love all of your games!! Since you've done a bunch of au's I was thinking, what if you did a dreamtale one? Just a suggestion! Have a nice day ❤️
haha ty, I didn't see that there were multiple choices which is why I kept picking the option that effectively got me killed. Almost immeadiately. Love your work btw :))

my friends: AHEGHEGE
error sans and me: OH FU- DUST YOU ASSHOLE >=|
(im so sorry)
Hey so when trying to escape Toriel, I'm pressing "run down the left path"
But it's acting like I'm choosing to go down the right path and I keep dying.
Okay I'm just a silly guy who's reading things wrong whoops

Ooooooooh! Thank u for explaining!
I am stuck on one part, it won't let me continue. I'm sad I was having fun TwT

Yo congrats on your pregnancy!!!
What does it mean when it says I am on the yarrow route after snowdin? Who's yarrow?

is my character like, dating Lily in the beginning? It seems like it but i'm not sure lol. (I want to so badly)
you have to die from Toriel enough times to get that option, i recommend first trusting her and then continue from there because that's how i get those options
There are only three lots saved for me, is this the case for everyone?
yea, must be because this game isn't full bent on murder.
...WHAT. Sawing the note, surprised. Hope you will gave birth to your child health and safely. Will wait for ur baby(s) to born & the next chapters(plus the IF: Mafiafell one, mweheheh)😍😍
there's this error when we're tied up by sans, i didn't flirt with flowey, or any of the other characters except for the ghost..
For some reason I'm not able to go on any of the routes, I've tried everything but nothing seems to be working for that? Is anyone else having that problem?
you need to start romancing two characters for it to show, found that out when i was doing it
OMG UR PREGNANT??? CONGRATSSSSS IM SO HAPPY FOR U GIRLIEEE!!! :DDD
HELP, I THOUGHT THE TRAPPER AND REAPER SANS WERE THE SAME, AND NOW I'M ROMANCING ALL THE SKELETONS :sob:
what suffering from success looks like LMAO
How do i pass the ghost chasing part 😭
you turn on your heels and quickly change directions, all the other options will kill you
THANK UUUUUUUUUUUU<333
you're welcome <3
I’m a bit nervous about the ‘is your character able to carry a child’ option- /j /nsrs
I Know what’ll come up, and I’m hyped don’t get me wrong but my jaw DROPPED when I saw it BAHAHA
Hey, I'm having some trouble. When I reach the part where it shows how many times I died and who I'm currently romancing for the first time, I can't move on to the next step. Is there something I'm missing?

Thanks in advance!
I actually have that too, so I do believe it's because it's not finished.
Ow if it's the same for you yeah, I think it's that! Thanks!
The game is still being made, if you look at “More information” it shows that it’s in development.
Yup, I saw it was still in development but I thought maybe it was just a bug and there was more, but now I think it just stops here for now! Thanks!
Happy to help any time!<3 P.S Like your pfp!
Sooooooo, I'm stuck on where you run from the ghost- Everything I chose, I die- Anyone know how to get passed it?
NEVERMIND, I GOT IT AFTER LIKE 20 ATTEMPS
HOW PLS TELL I'VE BEEN TRYING TO GET PAST FOR Like 6 months TwT
Never mind my bird brain figured it out☠️
HOW.
take a pic of ghost and run away (heart option if romancing) -> drop low & spin on ur heel
can be confusing to see the second option because it can be hidden by the bottom of the screen, just scroll down all the way on the page :)
Why the Ghosts voice kinda hot tho
I'm so glad I'm not the only one who thought that-
thanks! I did my best to make it sound as hot as possible
The voice acting in the beginning had me feeling things I was NOT expecting to feel for a goopy ghost...
you are very welcome :)
Just started but i already love the friend group honestly reminds me a ton of my friends
Hey darkpetal! I found this error tag. It's when you accept death with papyrus after dying to Toriel, specifically to the tea.
STOPPPP the message texts are killing me. I, too, want to smooch the ghost 👻 ♥️ (loving your work as always)

?????????
Smut??? Where??
Do you mean where I ask you to confirm your sex after your gender????
LMAOOO THEY PROBABLY DID HELP 😭😭
You are such a talented creator, I've played a couple of your other games and they are all amazing!
Thank you so much!! I really enjoy making these. (:
No female ROs?
Nope. Tori is Mother Figure, and I ship Undyne & Alphys.
After playing this like a dozen times, I finally realized what was confusing me!
Is there a way to make who is texting a bit clearer? I can really only see the green and somewhat red boxes so I keep losing the conversation.
It's also doing the same thing Siren Call is doing where the save window is too big for the screen.
I can look into different colors for the text boxes.

Hey! I absolutely love all of your games!! Since you've done a bunch of au's I was thinking, what if you did a dreamtale one? Just a suggestion! Have a nice day ❤️
Hi! Thank you!! We'll see where the muse takes me after I finish what I have up. (:
The intro is very long, could you make a way to directly skip to the part where you have to make decisions please?
Other than that, great game.
Hi! Thanks for playing.
Not at this current point in time. Per the walkthrough, recommend saving after the text sequences so you don't have to redo the prologue.
i love this game smmmm! i had such a fun time playing!
Thank you! I'm delighted you had fun playing. (:
Loving this already! Remember to take your time and stay hydrated!!! Great work ❤️
Thank you!! WIll do. <3
This is really cool. Keep up the good work! :D
Appreciate it. (: I'll do my best.
i keep dying when the ghost shows up-
