#HowIFoundFNaF

I discovered FNAF from my friends and classmates at primary school, we would always roleplay FNAF irl (phones wheren't allowed) where one person pretended to be the night guard and others would be the animatronics. Best school experience.


STORY TIME:

When I was in 2nd grade at school recess (2014), my classmate tried to introduce me to FNAF, where he wanted to roleplay the game irl with me (phones wheren't allowed so everyone would just try to replicate a videogame experience on the playground lol), and since I didn't know what the game was at the time he told me what where the animatronics, the night guard, the objective and etc.

He was the night guard and I was foxy (he simply told that there was a "robot pirate fox" so I went with it XD)

I still didn't discover the actual game until a year later (I think), where my friends and other classmates encouraged me to roleplay the game with them and after that I asked my dad to download FNAF 1 on the PC (I think it was the Demo version first)

I really got into it and one of my classmates even told me and my friends some of the FNAF lore.

I also introduced FNAF to my best friend, we where playing together and we fell off the chair after a jumpscare (I asked my friend about this since I forgot most stuff not sure if my friend also remembers these memories accuratelly).

Preview of the 1st level's final tiles (W.I.P)

I made some changes to the tileset itself too (and might make more).

Medals... Stars... All over the place!

Added star collectibles! You can collect 3 of them in each level. (Also updated many screens to include stats on your medals and stars.)

VERTICAL LEVEL!

Here you have to go up instead to the sides to complete the level (the jump mechanics work much better in this level format!)

This might or might not replace the existing horizontal (normal) levels.

Art that I made for my game during the #Devruary challenge!

I didn't got to post these directly to the game page, so here's a post with most of them there!

(Link to the original posts in the article )

Preview of the new 1st level: Now in vertical! (W.I.P)

If I put every single "1st level" I made into the game now then I'd have a full set of levels already

Also did some changes to the jump mechanic and did a bunch of optimization.

Remaking the first level! (Tile set not final)

Some of the feedback I got previously pointed out that the current level design felt too boring/empty, so now I'll remake the existing levels and change some aspects of the overall level design of the game.

Decorated the level + extended it just a tiny bit. Also added more bird enemies to balance with the many mice enemies in the level

Still going to make more changes to the level (all of those checkerboard tiles at the start might not be visually appealing)

So I was adding a new screenshot to my game's game page (on the "Design" tab), I deleted one image since I didn't need it there anymore and then after I saved it ALL the images in the page got scrambled or something!

Has this ever happened to anyone else?

Development flow is at max speed! I'm confident that I'm finally getting closer at properly finishing working on the Demo!

- Remaking the 1st level (W.I.P)

- Repurposed medals to be the end goal for levels

- End level screen (W.I.P)

- And more! Read

1st level almost done!

Coded a new enemy system: they appear in 10 different places, but in reality there's only 4 of them! (It's not clones, that might be impossible on Gameboy unfortunally)
