ANIMATRONIC SPOTLIGHT - Helpy


(NOTE: The popup frequency in this video is artificially increased for the sake of showing them off; They don't show up nearly as often in the actual game!)

Helpy is a nonlethal animatronic - that meaning that instead of jumpscaring you, he'll just annoy you! Throughout the night, he'll spawn in a barrage of popup ads, blocking your view of the screen until you close them out. While completely harmless on their own, these popups run the risk of blocking off important visual cues from other animatronics which may lead to your death. Be sure to close them quickly, too - if you delay for too long, your screen might be full of popups before you know it! He can be especially painful to deal with if he happens to be blocking the minigame window.

While Helpy can certainly be obnoxious, he's overall probably one of the easier characters in the game - the popups are pretty easy to get rid of so long as you're quick on your feet. (Or...your mouse?) His salvage value's pretty low to reflect that, but if you just wanna give yourself a break from some of the other more dangerous animatronics, you may want to pick him up during your run!

(There are also already almost 30 unique ads that Helpy can spawn in, many of which even being made by guest artists! The ones shown here are just a small preview, so I hope you look forward to seeing them all in the full game :D)

Anyway, happy Frickbear Friday! I'm gonna go back to playing Mario Kart now.
