The warden, originating from Minecraft’s deep dark regions, was a major part of the roster for a long time now, with it set to be the 4th killer. I had finished a moveset, render, and animations for the warden, with it being pretty much done aside from scripting.
THIS WAS DUMB OF ME.
I have recently learned of mojang’s strict copyright on their characters, even obscure mobs like the warden. I don’t know how I was not aware of this while working on the warden, but now that I know I feel super stupid!!
It was very unlikely the warden and its respective map (the deep dark) would make it into the final release of the game’s warden update, which is now cancelled too. It was as such that I decided to scrap it and replace it with a slightly obscure yet copyright free Minecraft entity, Integrity from the broken script mod.
Do keep in mind this does not mean that the warden’s survivor counterpart, Steve, is fully scrapped. Steve has made it into many popular roblox games (most notably forsaken, one of the most popular games on the platform at the moment, with the “Crafter” skin literally being Steve) and so we may use Steve, buuuut the chances are pretty low. He’d have to be renamed anyway, probably to something like “the hero of the village”.
I was also planning a herobrine skin for guest 666, which will NOT be scrapped since mojang does not own the character of herobrine.
Sorry about this, i was really looking forward to these two in game :( integrity will be a good replacement tho! I’ll do my best to make this game’s alpha release as awesome as I can without the original Minecraft reps!!
Ok bye!
