#MyFavoriteAnimatronic design is Daycare Attendant.

I love how it compliments the design sensibility of the series. So many designs play off of the, admittedly creepy, Chuck E. Cheese animatronics and then Day Care Attendant feels more FAQ Schwarz.


I grew up going to both Chuck E. Cheese and FAO Schwarz, but as a little kid the FAO Schwarz animatronics scared me more (especially the tree.)

I think part of why they were scarier is because they were less humanoid, but also because they felt more real?

Chuck E. Cheese's kayfabe / artifice always had holes in it because Chuck was somehow both on stage and wandering the restaurant at the same time. (And they both looked radically different from each other.) As a result, I never really had the sense that he was real. Meanwhile, as far as I knew, that living tree was the only living tree in the whole world. (It wasn't.)

It's hard to pick one favorite #FNaFFanGame, but I *DO* have a soft spot for The Glitched Attraction due to the interview I did with the devs.

Heck yeah, I mastered @KniteBlargh 's entire Cloud Cat and Sun Lion pack!

One of my favorite pieces of #FNaFMerch that I own is this plush Freddy!

#MyFaveFNaF is probably still the original.

There's something really cool about how minimalist the gameplay is.

Obviously, my favorite part about the #FNaFMovie is Matthew Lillard!

I drew this cow for both #GameJoltColors25 and the Story of Seasons #FanArtFriday! I love the series’ cozy and cute art style so this was really fun.

I played #Lynked and had a blast! The game is full of personality and the combat is really fun.

It also lets me make my character look like a weird guy with a green mustache and pompadour (which is always a big plus in my book.)

A game series that I'd love to see get dedicated LEGO sets is MechWarrior. #GJAsks

It feels like a really natural fit given how many different mech designs there are.

#HowIFoundFNaF is, in part, through Game Jolt!

I was familiar with the franchise before I joined but what's been really exciting about it for me is seeing how much creativity it inspires in the community (and diving into the lore.)

It's not the MOST obscure piece of #FNaFLore, but I love that the Freddy & Friends: On Tour! cartoons had secret messages about how to solve the cipher in Security Breach.

(I'm a sucker for parodies of and homages to Hannah Barbera stuff.)
