Day 5 of posting fanmade Deltarune content until Chapters 3 and 4 release. This time, a fan's concept and animation for a certain hypothetical cowboy boss who's got a friend inside of him.
This is honestly not only my favorite concept for the theory of the potential "Woody" Secret Boss, but also quite possibly my favorite concept for a Secret Boss in Deltarune so far,
period. He's still clearly crazed, and seems to have connections to the same person who supposedly contacted Jevil and Spamton, but unlike those two, he's much more cold and retains enough of his sanity to be highly calculating, and doesn't go into any insane ramblings outside of his vague but accurate warnings about the SOUL Kris has, all making him a very unique character instead of just essentially being a retread of Spamton like tons of other Secret Boss concepts I've seen. The smooth and complete animations his sprites have are also befitting of the game's art style yet also look uncanny and out of place at the same time, giving him a vastly different feel from both every character in the official game as well, including the known Secret Bosses so far, while still being in-line enough with Deltarune's art style that it like it could actually be from the official game.
Part of me honestly hopes that the cowboy boss theory is true solely because some of the concepts explored here would make a great narrative addition to the game, and potentially help make the character better stand out from the previous Secret Bosses.
