More details on the update.


I’ve been thinking of new mechanics for NSaF:R’s update, and I’ve come up with quite a lot of ideas. I haven’t decided which ideas will make it in and what I’ll leave out yet, but I can tell you that both the graphics and gameplay are getting huge changes.

In my previous devlog, I said I’d be adding NSaF 2’s characters, something that may change. There still is the possibility that I’ll add them, but I’ve already completely redone the Toys’ AI to be more aggressive and have thought of new mechanics for them, so adding NSaF: 2’s characters could be pointless or too difficult.

Regarding the music box, (a very much hated mechanic by me) I haven’t thought of too many things I could do with that. I need to keep it (this is a remake, not a completely different game) but I want it to serve a different purpose as to not be just another “wind-up the music box” game.

I know I said NSaF:R would have a “more ways to play” option instead of a custom night, but with the Toys’ AI having been totally redone, I now can add a functional custom night. I had an idea that I could just have the regular AI settings, but then another page full of other things that can be altered (like how long the night is, etc.), but whatever I do, I can tell you that the update will be unrecognizable to this; a completely different game.

Next up

Newest draft of composite video shader fixes color issues (caused by different versions of GLSL clamping values differently) and uses real sampled CCD sensor thermal noise. See for yourself!

First stable version of new multi pass shader ported. Paired it with a lower resolution and era-appropriate aspect ratio for vibes. (and to make sure the shaders scale properly)

Also shows off some of the enhanced entry area.

I was working on installing drop down menus and I get an error on some old code for "REMOVE THIS CODE ONCE DROP DOWN MENUS ARE CREATED."

Thanks, past me.

Localization efforts have been expanded to more areas of the game. Instead of just important buttons and labels on menus, I am now having as many elements as I can translated.

QOL features are harder to design than actual gameplay stuff. Been working on configuration and settings in SP all summer. Mind you actually porting the main gameplay stuff from Clickteam only took 30 days.

Literal bug-turned-feature. I am gonna make this happen if you try to move the window while there's no camera feed.

Working on the better camera shader.

Full lens, CCD, and transmission emulation.

It just keeps getting better and better.

Game.
