DELTARUNE and the Fourth Wall || THE DEVICE THEORY [PART 2: DEMO]

{ WARNING: this video has several moments which contain flashing colors/lights/imagery and what have you. i believe all of the most warranted moments have warnings of their own that appear just before, but this is a blanket warning for the video itself and that if you are sensitive to such things, watch with caution. take it easy! }

a simple theory video about DELTARUNE, turned into an existential disaster of an analysis. join me as i seek to answer how DELTARUNE may be using the fourth wall to further its message, through examining how UNDERTALE did it, applying it to both demos of DELTARUNE so far, as well as making my best attempt at a character analysis of the Man HIMself along the way.
i promise you, there's a solid theory in here somewhere...

the list of music and sources i used actually exceeded the character limit for the description, so here's a link to it instead: https://files.catbox.moe/q1el8b.txt
HOWEVER, some of the songs and a video on there, particularly ones that use japanese characters, got all messed up, so here's a list of the ones with those characters in order of usage:
Oblique Occasions - 薄い氷の上 { ALTERED }
lolrust (.flow OST) - 兄妹/Siblings
lolrust (.flow OST) - 学校/School
-Deltarune Pacifist & Massacre play comparison (오로라 스튜디오 Aurora Studio)
Sally in 2D - スサノオ (    • スサノオ   )

also, i actually have more videos that i wanted to put in the editor as cards but youtube only lets you put up to 5 of them at a time in any video. so here's the rest of the ones i either alluded to or mentioned i would be linking: https://files.catbox.moe/nvupd5.txt
