#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).

Next up

I put the new feature to the test, and it plays horrendous

So I might only apply this new mechanic to only specific enemies in specific areas or a specific object just for this.

But I'll give another shot at making this play better, otherwise...

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)

Wanted to try adding a small feature, it ended up turning into a death battle against bugs that kept getting more bugged after every fix (it was like cutting hydra heads)

The game also crashed a few times... but it's stable now!

The MANY changes I did

New update & Game's ROM now avaliable to download!

- Added title cards & bug fixes.

You can now download the ROM file of the game and play it locally through an emulator!

Read article for more instructions

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 )

Experimenting with something!

Instead of just jumping above enemies and killing them instantly, you simply get above them and you get to pick how you want to use them (jump or jump higher basically)

I will take a while working in this idea though...

"Spiraling fox"

spiral, swirl, whatever same thing

Procreate brush used: "Scallop"

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

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.

Level title cards!

When you start a level, you are met with a title card instead of being teleported to the level right away.

For now it only says the name of the level, but I'm planning to add more stuff like indicating if you collected the medal there
