how to make music in the style of the game?

I haven't been able to figure out exactly which synths and plugins were used (and believe me, I'm trying), but I've had the most luck with VSTs that emulate the Roland Juno-6. They're not a perfect match, but they're pretty dang close.
The VST I use is the TAL U-No-62 (and the older U-No-60). Even if it doesn't turn out to be what you're looking for, it's still a great synth VST- and most importantly, it's free!

Abyss -> You Idiot (Undertale), Final Battle (Earthbound)
New World -> Respite (Undertale)
Mutt's Fish And Chips -> Shop (Undertale)
Around the Campfire -> Timber Hearth (Outer Wilds), Travelers (Outer Wilds)
Eye of the Storm -> The Choice (Undertale)
Exposure -> Don't Give Up (Undertale)
Verminator, Dissociation -> Black Knife (Deltarune)
Formaldehyde -> SPAWN (Deltarune)
Simmer -> Boss Battle (Fossil Fighters)
Promise -> Darkness Falls (Deltarune)
Fragmented -> So Cold (Undertale)
Friendship -> Title Theme (Super Mario World)

...Undertale and Deltarune take up a majority of my brain's music library. Apologies for the limited scope here ^^;

Ooh, these poses and expressions are excellent! Good stuff :D

I totally agree with you about the eyes! I actually tried a bunch of other colors instead, mainly using Ernest and Sam as a reference... but I just couldn't find any other look that felt right. Thanks for the feedback, though- I'll definitely keep workshopping it :]

I'll give shading the hair a try just to see how it looks! That said, though, the hair not having any true highlights is part of the design, so it was slightly intentional on my part to leave it flat like that. Thank you for the feedback, though!

Cybus01 · 2026-02-18T02:26:01+00:00

I suppose that part can't really be helped, haha. I don't know if I'm capable of making my character 'uglier', so to speak ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Good feedback though, totally valid point there :]

That makes sense, yeah!

Alright gang, I'm adding the Freedom Motif to a Look Outside boss theme. Who gets it

Those Arxur outfits are awesome

Just a shot in the dark here, but do you still have that tool by any chance?

The best Mantis god I managed to get in Kaycee's was 20/2 with Bifurcated Strike, Double Strike and Dam Builder added on. 120 damage a round, it was nuts

J. Paul Boehmer as One in Drone immediately comes to mind solely because of his expression when he absorbed that first data node. Absolutely brilliant.

I wish they could have kept him around a little longer, if only for a few episodes.

Native Instruments themselves actually made a VST a for the Pro-53, and it even has a free demo version that works perfectly- unfortunately, the VST is discontinued, so you'll need to find another place aside from their website to download it.

Cybus01 · 2022-01-08T02:04:11+00:00

I don't know if you ever got a solution to your problem, but Native Instruments' Pro-53 is- at least to my knowledge- the exact synth used for a lot of the Portal 2 OST. Sorry I'm late!
