Earliest in-dev gameplay footage of AHaR...?

More info in the article


Hello everyone, it's TFO04 here.

Today marks the third anniversary of the full release of AHaR! woohoo... I don't really have anything new development-wise, but I am going to try and get v1.5 finished and out before the end of March next year. But I wanted to show you a video featuring the earliest known in-development gameplay footage of it.

This video has been sitting unlisted on my youtube channel since mid-April 2021, four months before the first demo's release. I wanted to show some of my friends how much progress was done at the time of making the game. Some noticable differences are that a lot of the art for the rooms and the office are unfinished and unpolished, notably the E. Hall corner has a different floor compared to the rest of the rooms (I was originally going to have the floors of Raichu's Palace be completely blue, instead of blue and yellow tiles. and this is just a preliminary remnant that would later get replaced!)

The A.I. for the characters is also slightly different than version 0.95 and the final game, I would later replace the coding for the A.I. in a similar manner to how the first FNaF game did it. But other than that, the art for the office, rooms and the characters remain the same in the final, just with a little more polish added to them and stuff added. Also the name "spongebobpaul" on the game's date in the main menu is my former alias. I stopped using it in late 2021 when I decided to officially use TheFireOshawott04 as my alias instead.

Well I guess that's it for today's post. More progress on version 1.5 of AHaR is yet to come, but stay tuned. Hope you all have had a great Christmas (If you celebrate it, I know I sure have had a great one) and I'll see you around, take care.

- paul (TFO04)

new supply closet camera is done; here it what it looks like in-game. I've also remodelled some parts of the camera map a little bit if you couldn't tell, just so it's slightly more consistent with the size of the rooms

A.I. changes [warning: flashing images]

More info below

alright. time to get myself into gear and finish version 1.5; hopefully before the end of the year. and i mean it!

here's a new raichu image for the game's main menu to replace the old one I made waaayyy back at the start of development (in the 2nd image)

Fix Fredbear

now time to revamp the party area camera

if you're wondering how I do this, I model the room in roblox studio, take a screenshot once finalised and then trace over the image. not the most preferable method but I do it because I am very bad at perspectives

Sonic's ending pose from Advance 1... in classic form instead! I drew this last month, I plan on doing the others as well but I haven't got around to them yet.

Might be for something I will be working on after AHaR v1.5 is done? who knows!

Process of one of my Pikachu drawings. This is a perfect example of when I start losing myself in art land, but suddenly snap back to basics when I realize "Oh right, I have no time!" You'll see what I mean.

revamped party area is almost done - here I used GIMP to place the pokémon images on the walls using the program's unified transform tool. I'm going to draw some new images next to where natu and hoothoot are, just to fill in the empty spaces
