Hi there, I thought I'd tell you about the game now.

Honestly, the game has changed a lot since its announcement. Until February of this year, I wasn't particularly interested in the original Lost Hope. In fact, I didn't even know it was canceled. Back then, I was just starting to learn modeling and programming, so I initially planned to make a simple recreation of the original game. I even considered contacting RoirawG himself about my idea, but I couldn't find a way to contact him. Over time, the game evolved and evolved, until I finally changed my plans entirely and switched from a recreation to a full unofficial reboot.

My friends helped me with this game, especially with the coding... (I hate coding). A lot happened in development over the summer, but at the end of the summer, I had a falling out with my team, and I ended up finishing the alpha version alone. I had very little time (due to personal circumstances), so I rushed its development, and in the end, I published it without finishing some mechanics. The game was full of bugs; even before its release, I asked people not to criticize it, as it was my first experience. But to be honest, some people actually liked the game (despite some bugs), and I was incredibly happy when I saw the first playthrough of my game by KemetromX. I had planned to take a break from the project until the end of the year, but for some reason I decided to continue development. (And regarding the team... I made peace with them a long time ago.)

Now, let's move on to development progress.

As you can see from the gameplay, a couple of new mechanics have been added to the game that were supposed to be in alpha.

The demo will only feature two nights, with P.N.M. and Oswald; I can't promise more for now.

I can only confirm that the game may have another demo with a night 3, but that's not certain.

The current design of Neglected P.N.M. and Neglected Oswald:

I would have stopped the devlog here, but there's more...

The thing is, as I mentioned in the alpha version, I have very little time to develop the project due to my studies and upcoming exams, for which I'm actively preparing, so I've decided to stop development until early summer and focus on my studies. I'm very sorry.

Well, that's all I wanted to say for now. See you at the beginning of summer (possibly)!
