Damn, been a while since i last posted something serious on here wasn't it

It's been a while since this game has released, about like... 2? 3 years ago? My first ever game for that matter, it feels like cheating to release something actually decent as my first ever project because i got a hand from Lan and Joaco to make this real, while i was the guy with the idea about what should go here and there, you know it.

Now, when i look at Shadow Nights 2 i think ''damn we did a really good job'' and it was thanks to everything i learned from shadow nights 1 development, but what has been of the game all this time?

My Thoughts

I've got... quite the mixed opinions when it comes to the first game, in one hand i go ''yay im so glad it released!!!!!!! shwoodio nits negras noches!!!!'' but on the other hand i go ''Ehh....'' Now i don't want you to think i actually hate this game, because that's NOT the case, i learned so much from it as a person and as a game developer and it would be selfish of me to hate it, specially considering how much help i got from my friends, i now am a much more organized guy when it comes to game development and how i want to form my team and all of that (i think) but when i look at it i feel like if we were to redo it, it would be better, WAY better

The game itself is pretty lackluster when it comes to the lore, because well, it only tells you that Fate worked in the place because of the money, few nights later the dark entity haunting the place confronts him, and at the final night he dies, the end! But that's not really a bad thing, this game started the lore of a series i always wanted to do and i got myself a fanbase waiting for more because of it, but i feel like theres nothing really interesting to know in this game other than the fact fate will come back with a better plot role, the gameplay only consists of going side to side without using the cameras because they pretty much became useless in the update now that there is no music box (good riddance tbh) and the artstyle is outdated, to both lan's and my standards

What happened to the Smaller Update? Wasn't it gonna fix those errors?

I'll make it quick for you, it's not happening anymore.

The Smaller Update's only purpose was to fix some of the flaws the game had, like the lore or mechanics, even better as make the cameras useful, but even with that it still wouldn't change my view on how i look at the game because there was still more flaws i could notice from a mile away, and if the update only fixed SOME of the flaws the game has while there is still other noticeable flaws, it would be pointless

Why don't you make a remake of the game?

Okay this one is kinda funny actually

Long time ago when the game restarted development to be improved from the ground up i somehow had the idea of already making a remake of the game, mind you, WHEN THE BASE GAME STILL HASN'T RELEASED

Like what would i change or put in the remake if i still haven't released the game? I don't know what even was i thinking when doing this im sorry

This showed me i was just making shit just to make it (i actually was just trying to copy villca lol), and if i wanted to get something decent done i must actually put time and effort on it, so 2 hours later i deleted the category, and this was the only thing surviving of reshadowed in the dev server

A remake of the game isnt really what i look for, as most things would stay the same but better graphics n shit, and i cant remake something the way i dont like

A Shadow over Villca's

With this releasing i can tell you it's pretty much the better alternative to play Shadow Nights, its a collaboration between villca's game and mine, and it came out more than decent! It's because i had a proper game development knowledge and what should i do, but that didn't stop development hell to happen, yikes...

The visuals are nice, the cameras are useful and the lore is- wait NO ARGGHH AHH- MFMMFFPMFPFMPFMFPMFFFMPFMPFMFPF!!

(You will find out when you play the game, go check it out)

So with all of this said, what can i tell you about the first game?

For the time being it was crazy good, but now that i see it with experimented eyes in direction and proper game development knowledge i can tell you that it could have been better, its like a 6/10, its not bad, but not THAT good

HOWEVER if you actually read through all of this up to this point i wouldn't want to leave you empty handed, so have a little something that will satisfy every part that can happen in the future.

With all of my yapping being said, gudbai
