AFTEREFFECT DX: Directors Cut

Vanessa is a young employee working a dead-end job, but in a twist of fate, she is sent on a company mission to go to an abandoned factory. It’s up to her to explore the secrets within and unravel the mysteries of Fazbear Entertainment in this narrative-driven visual novel.

Long after Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza closed its doors, the tragedies that took place there only exist as tall-tales, rumors, and hoaxes. A rogue indie developer creates horror games based on these tales which takes the world by storm, inspiring a wealthy entrepreneur to revive Fazbear Entertainment. Now working to rebrand its image, the company starts work on many titles which serve to clear their image in the mind of the public.

You are Vanessa, a vastly unqualified IT worker who is down on her luck. However, in an unexpected turn of events, she is sent on a company mission by the senior manager of Fazbear Entertainment. Their goal is to visit the elusive Dekogon Industries, a robotic parts manufacturer. However, once they visit, they realize they’ve been trapped within the facility by an unknown entity. Vanessa and her unlikely accomplice will have to join forces to escape. What they find inside might be friendship, memories, or even dark secrets.

Q: What is the gameplay like? What do I do during the game?

A: AFTEREFFECT is mainly a narrative experience, with some slight exploration and minigames. It is most comparable to a visual novel, however, it does feature some exploration and gameplay despite this.

Q: This is cool, but FNAF: Security Breach is coming out and it will most likely develop Vanny’s character in the canon. How will this affect AFTEREFFECT?

A: Similar to some other fangames, AFTEREFFECT takes place in a separate continuity that is not bound by the canon story. Any lore revelations in any upcoming titles will not apply to this game.

Q: Can I make youtube videos/stream this?

A: Yes! Just link to our gamejolt!

Q: Is AFTEREFFECT DX a remaster, expansion, sequel, or what?

A: AFTEREFFECT DX: Directors Cut is simply a new version of the game with all the content that had to be cut from the original GameJam release. The biggest addition is the new ending, but it is not a comprehensive remaster or remake so don't expect that. It is essentially a small expansion to the original.

The original AFTEREFFECT was a submission for the Fangame at Freddit's 2 GameJam.
