7 Tigys at Night

7 Tigys at Nightis a FNaF fangame developed as part of the FNaF Swap 9challenge event.

7 Tigys at Night is a very ambitious FNaF Swap project I made with the goal of being one of - if not the - biggest FNaF Swap games to date. It features, of course, 7 characters, all being variants of Tigy Tiger created by Spacer789. If anybody has contact with Spacer, let me know. I'd like to find them on the internet because their games are very iconic, at least to me.

How does FNaF Swap work? Well, each participant begins by designing a menu and characters for a new game. Then, each round, everybody passes their game onto the next participant who must design another part of the game. The categories for each round are:

-Menu & Models

-Office/Setting

-Cameras/Other Mechanics

-Mechanics and AI for characters

This was probably the best FNaF Swap I've had, personally. I begun the first round by making not just the menu, but the office and cameras too. This was to allow the people after me to make the 7 Tigys with enough time. Then, on the second round, I overachieved again and made not only the office, but a working character as well as began developing the cameras - which I screwed up and accidentally began a domino effect with to make the final product of THAT game... Subpar. On the third round I added functionality, cameras, and three characters to @Gamemaster_64 's game, which turned out pretty nice. And on the final round, I was handed a completely broken game that seemed hopeless, although I managed to pick it back up, finish it, polish it, and get a pretty nice end product out of it.

When I received 7 Tigys at Night back? It was okay, although I was a bit disappointed to hear about how it had been handled by the others working on it. On the second round, which I hoped would be used for adding the camera buttons to finish off the cameras as well as have plenty of time for adding 2-3 characters, it turned out that only the camera buttons were made. That's fine though, because on the third round the game was picked back up and, despite only 1 character, Golden Tigy, being made, all of the mechanics were finished off and the game was handed over for the final round where all the 6 remaining characters was all that really needed to be made. In the end, all 7 Tigys were made, and the game ran fairly bugless.

It was, however, completely cheesable, as there were no penalties for using the doors or lights, so they could be kept on/closed at all times, which prevented 4 of the characters from doing anything. Then, one of the characters, The One True Tigy, had been coded with the variable for Tigy's position instead of his own, meaning that The One True Tigy did not function and Tigy functioned at double speed. Golden Tigy's mechanic relies on you flipping your cameras, so you could just cheese the entire game by holding the doors closed and keeping the mask on for the other potential threat, Final Tigy. To add insult to the injury, the game was endless.

I decided to polish the game up before release, by first adding power and fixing The One True Tigy's code. I also remade the light mechanic to be a flashlight you direct rather than two lights that act as second doors, since it made more sense and double doors kinda just sucked. I changed Plush Tigy to Final Tigy because that is what Final Tigy originally was for some reason, idk somebody changed it. I added 7 nights, power, and a decent bit of polishing and then declared the game done and polished up.

For this game, 7 Tigys at Night, I designed the characters, name, office, cameras and menu. The others helped to make this game awesome. Those others, by the way, are:

Menu, Office, Cameras, Original Conception - @SamSuperhero 

Camera Buttons and original flashlight mechanic that I brought back in the end - @pikachurian

Door Light mechanic, Mask, Lure and Golden Tigy - @Nedum

6 Other Tigys -@MC_Creeper

Finishing Touches -@SamSuperhero

How to play:

Controls:

-Press A and D keys to toggle left and right doors.

-Hold Spacebar or F key to use flashlight.

-Press mask button to toggle mask.

-Press "Click" button on the monitor in front of you to open cameras.

Your goal is to survive for 7 consecutive nights against Tigy, Old Tigy, Golden Tigy, Nightmare Tigy, Office Tigy, Final Tigy and The One True Tigy.

Mechanics:

-Tigy: Moves to your right door. Shut the door on him until he leaves.

-Old Tigy: Moves to your left door. Shut the door on him until he leaves.

-Golden Tigy: May appear in front of you when closing the cameras. Re-open the cameras to get rid of him.

-Nightmare Tigy: Moves to your office via the left door. The door cannot stop him, instead hold your flashlight on him when he is in your office until he leaves.

-Office Tigy: Moves to your office via the right door. The door cannot stop him, instead hold your flashlight on him when he is in your office until he leaves.

-Final Tigy: Jumps into your office from the left, wear your mask until he leaves.

-The One True Tigy: Makes his way to your office, and cannot be stopped. Delay his onslaught by using the lure on the camera he is on. He doesn't like the lure, so it will deter him back to the start.

Enjoy! Obviously the game is pretty small, since it was made in a few hours total by several devs who did not work on the game together, but separately. Regardless, I find this game to have hit the mark perfectly in the end, and am glad that it became as big of a game as it is. This is my favourite FNaF Swap game for sure.
