Indie auteur Tobias Fox has publicly shown his face for the first time in years, while doing a bit and pretending to be a schizo during a promotional stream
This wouldn't be special, if the guy didn't go out of his way to hide his face from the internet. Some photos from his days before fame surfaced up over the years, showing a wondrous transformation
He went from looking like a huwaite boy with jewish characteristics
Into el judío mexicano
The last photo of his face that he officially posted on his social media during e3 2015
Ever since Undertale got popular, he began mystifying his character and using all sorts of masks to conceal his face (likely inspired by some japanese devs)
Sometimes, japanese media would "leak" his face, like this signing from 2018
This is the first time since 2015 that he willingly shows his face, playing a scruffy schizo character, likely wearing a wig and recording it using a shitty camera
Allegedly, his entire vidya dev career is based on a few fever dreams he had as a teenager. Imagine making millions from stuff that literally "came to you in a dream"

imagine creating a black hole of distilled tumblr autism based off of a literal fever dream, man is a savant. I don't really blame him for hiding his face for years, best to keep people's obsession about the characters

I thought his career was based on homestuck

that is actually semi-true, as a lot of undertale fans are also homestuck fans. one of homestuck's animations ([s] collide) actually contained a straight up undertale reference

That's true, he also did a lot of the music/gameplay late homestuck, and hussie shilled for him pretty hard for a bit there

I guess "career" was a bad choice of a word. His networking in Earthbound romhack and Homestuck communities undeniably played a role in his success. I meant to say that the primary inspiration for the events and characters in his games came from fever dreams, which is still quite impressive. I am sure he heavily embellishes their actual importance, but every artist needs a good myth for their work process.

Yeah that's crazy, I hadn't heard that before but I believe it bc UT totally has a dreamlike vibe (like a real dream, not an uwu dreamy one)
I wish my dreams were that inspiring

Ok, seems like I was the one embellishing their importance
Officially only the ending for Deltarune was directly inspired by a fever dream. The actual characters seem to have other, more conscious inspirations.

This comment + interview made me want to play deltarune more than any of the ads for it did

viz media remade the site, making it more mobile-friendly. they also "fixed" the animations by reuploading them as youtube videos, although the quality of those is shit.

You can get the unofficial homestuck collection and it's way better than shitty youtube videos
I'll surely finish it and see what made everyone so mad some day
