WELCOME BACK! It’s time to drop the curtain and welcome all of you back to the real world, where the line between fiction and reality are not such a complete blur, yes? Now put that pumpkin down, there ain’t no candy for your sweet tooth, but there is a sampling of recaps for “What on earth was going on” in Overtale forums. Let’s begin shall we?
SWEET TOOTH ARG(Alternate Reality Game) -
I am still proud of you guys
Things got a little festive this week, not just simply because of the natural course of things that is Halloween, but the reality that the team had to face. Rather than being pulled down by a certain situation, we turned it around into a fun little parallel activity that can only be described as a very elaborate jigsaw puzzle. Inboxes came rushing in, strange messages, pictures that made no sense alone. Utter confusion!!! Eventually some of you figured it out soon enough, rounded everyone up, pieces were formed and you got the picture, sort of. Although it was not completed in time, we admired your efforts and determination. This was a very radical experiment in how we spice up fan interaction for Overtale and whether you got a true fright about it or had a great time(Or Not), the team thanks all fans who have participated! You will not be forgotten! Thank you for SAVE-ing Overtale! Oh and if you wish to finish the puzzle you can still attempt it here!
Birby Likes - Sometimes you find things on the forums that is just fun! It doesn't have to be perfect, because nobody is! This here is the segment where I post things I find that I like, and I think you should like it too! If you would like your content posted here, either hope that it catches my eye or feel free to send them my way (geojjx@gmail.com) and who knows? Maybe you might see them appear here someday! Here are some of my picks not in any order.

By hamedebu50 A for effort
In Closing -
The Newsletters will go on a hiatus for the moment, but look out on the forums for future updates! Some things are still cooking in the works, it’s just a matter of when. I have a feeling something fun is coming up pretty soon, but its just a feeling that definitely probably does not confirmnordenyanything. Until then, this is GeoBirb signing off! Happy Halloween!

In the face of that character you can BARELY see the words what and i... I don't know what letters are after the I. Can somebody help me out with that. Also under that is a message saying, it's some sort of code. I tried to download the image to see if it had a code but it was differently randomly generated numbers and letters. Unless you guys find out something I didn't.

It also has a question mark at the end. Meaning it's a question. Normal when what is in a sentence then it's a question but sometimes it's not so, I just wanted to point that out.

Ok here's what I got. It is differently a conversation starting with the person in the picture. Who is the person in the picture? None other then Dr.Alphys assistant(Who's name I did not have time to find.). The dome around there head is likely to keep in energy. We see in the Overtale poster that this monster has a Shocking ability. In theory, Alphys might have made that for them and they decided to help Alphys as a token of gratitude. Here is what I could get from the dialogue boxes and hidden dialogue boxes. (The first line is all the letters I could make out.) What i it?(Likely what is it?) It's some sort of code What are you!(Likely with a question mark as well,LOL.) ... Then last we only get the letters, "uses un.

What this might be is a flashback or current event where somebody made a monster(Monster as in a amalgamate... Sorry... I think beast is a better word then monster so i'll use that.) and then...Something... But what? From the size and shape of the last dialogue box we can only conclude 2 things. Either it has a really long name and it's using an attack(Like how in Pokemon they say Pikachu used thunderbolt) or there is something way more important hidden behind that pink cloud looking stuff. We should also note that there are a lot of ones and zeros. For those of you who somehow don't know, these are normally used in the very source of computers. It's like, inner inner coding. Either this is a reference to the leaks and how this person went through files and got information, or this beast is not a beast made in a lab. At least a science lab. But a computer... Or computer lab.

Update: Her name is...Siara? Sorry if I didn't spell it right... She has that around her in another concept art. (All information found in devblog.) Also, nothing in the source code when putting the image in another tab.

Wait, so there is some sort of binary code hidden in the picture? and from what I tested it seems to be legit I need moment to crack it

I think I might make my theory into a video at this point. It's cooler that way XD

It was standard 8 character long binary and to be fair it is very clearly shown But first I thought it was just some flavor text due to the event but it was too regular to be just some numbers
