Trivia[]

  • Toby Fox has visited this wiki's Dog Residue article[9] and commented on a piece of misinformation on the Papyrus article claiming that the character was inspired by Octopimp.[10][11]
  • Toby Fox is embarrassed by his Halloween Hack and has dubbed it "bad ROM hack with swears".[12][13]
  • Although Toby Fox's official website's content was replaced with a link to the UNDERTALE website, a part of it with music composed by Toby still exists. For some reason, the name "musics" in the URL is misspelled "msuics".
  • The program Toby Fox used to make the music of Undertale was FL Studio. According to music tags in the beta version of Stronger Monsters from his website and the tracks he made for Temmie Chang's RPG, he uses FL Studio 10.[14]
  • The copyright on Undertale and Deltarune is registered to "Robert F. Fox,"[15] and Toby's Halloween Hack was credited to Robert "Toby" Fox,[16] suggesting that Toby's birth name might be Robert Fox.
  • Toby Fox and Temmie Chang animated a commercial for Kenny Omega when he went to go fight in Japan. The commercial uses music used in Undertale and is stylised as Undertale's gameplay.[17]
  • On April Fools' Day of 2023, Toby Fox "accidentally" sent a picture of himself covered in a large amount of foam to some of the "TRUCK FREAK" subscribers to the Undertale/Deltarune newsletter.[18]
    • People subscribed to the "Foam Shower" tier also received several other images, with the previous image of Toby photoshopped into them.[19]

"Going off the information given, I was banned from the Undertale Wiki yesterday (Nov. 2nd, 2015) for adding false information to page for the character Papyrus, where I added to the Trivia section that he was based off the YouTube Octopimp. Alongside the claim, I provided a link to a now-defunct live stream for the YouTube channel Game Grumps. However, yesterday, the creator of Undertale, Toby Fox, said on Twitter that this wasn't true, with Octopimp later following suit and also saying it was false. I was later banned from Undertale Wiki for adding said false information, with the accusation from replies to Toby's tweet that I was a troll." - GamingFanatic. November 4, 2015. Wikia.
