The newsletter also confirms that only the stuff in the game itself is canon.

As in… none of the Sweepstakes are canon?

…There goes a lot of what we thought we knew.

https://deltarune.com/lostwheretheforestwouldgrow/ not sure what this could mean. the tree also has the same texture as the ‘jockington grows the beard’ thing, so i feel like they’re somehow connected

I always consider canon to be a pretty high standard. Just because this isn’t canon doesn’t mean it isn’t true or relevant… it’s really saying that there might be minor discrepancies and all the important bits will probably be revealed again in the game proper for people who aren’t looking for content this die-hard. It’s still stuff written by Toby and meant to connect to the game in some way.

Remembering what else Toby worked on… yep, you’re probably right. (It could be true and relevant, but not essential. …I can’t believe I’m referencing the Homestuck Epilogues, but Toby worked on Homestuck, and it’s the only thing tangentially related to Toby that explicitly defines the term “canon”, so it’s actually our best reference on his definition of canon. …Yes, our best reference for defining canon is actually Homestuck, and not even the main Homestuck, but the Epilogues. I wish I could find something more closely linked to Toby that defines canon so I don’t have to use the Homestuck Epilogues, but I don’t think I can. Let’s just hope the pillars of canon are easy to explain to someone who hasn’t read 8000 pages of a webcomic then went through an officially made sequel that’s diagetically a fanfic of that webcomic.)
