Auldernet is a fan project based on the Deltarune setting (an "alternate universe" or AU). Basically, it's a second version of the Deltarune setting where the overall world is actually the size of a small planet, and where I explored a cracktheory that the Undertale-Deltarune universe is actually a Cold War narrative where {{game|Undertale}} and The Underground symbolically represented something similar to the Soviet Union or North Korea; within Auldernet, Undertale is almost exactly the same as a setting or narrative except that relative to the Light World it functions as if it was [[E:superstructural fantasy world|in-universe fiction about {{em|the Auldernet world}} or a dream somebody had about it]] after living in it, although it is also "real" in its own right. Auldernet combines {{game|Undertale}}'s concept of recruiting 'actual' Monsters and Humans with {{game|Deltarune}}'s ability to have Dark Worlds, although there is also a second type of "special world" that gets more focus &mdash; past historical events. The central thread of the story is that the characters have to {{em|resolve the problems created in the past}} to save the world from disintegrating.

You could think of it as "Deltarune on the other side of its world", "Deltarune's earth instead of Deltarune's Alternia", or "Deltarune post-scratch" &mdash; although that might be an overcomplicated metaphor because Auldernet is vastly more straightforward than {{book|Homestuck}}.
