Game
Five Nights at Freddy's: The First Location
1 year ago

Now that I've made this page public, I'm gonna give a little progress breakdown. I'm new to this new-fangled gamejolt, so I've attached a more in-depth article to this (I think?). Feel free to call me a boomer if it doesn't work.


All but two of the main mechanics in the game are done. The doors work, the lights work, the power meter and usage meter work and are tied to everything they should be, the cameras work, and the music box works. Only missing two major mechanics which will be revealed at a later date, and one minor mechanic. Game Over can be triggered, though there is nothing to trigger it yet, as I lack jumpscare animations (for now). The in game clock works, though it doesn't end a night at 6 (yet, working on that very soon). Save data is implemented for everything that it needs to be implemented on.

Enemy-wise, Marionne, aka the Marionette, is basically finished, they just need a jumpscare animation that will trigger a game over. Work on Fredbear will begin soon. After them, Spring Bonnie and Balloon Boy, and the main game will be largely done at that point, but I am planning to give this game as much love and care as say, FNaF 1, so don't expect me to just release it when it's "done".

That all said, I hope you look forward to it. I wanted to be more transparent on the game's development than most fangames I've seen tend to be. Not that I won't be keeping any secrets, of course. Stay tuned.

Progress Update No. 10

Progress Update No. 9

Demo Version 1.0.6

I've outdone myself today. Probably the happiest I'm going to be with something I do in a game for a long time. Not only do the physics and controls work great and feel awesome, but I made a cinematic camera system in like 20 minutes. Feeling great.

This is BEYOND early WIP, but a promise is a promise. Thanks for 300+ followers! Have a peek at a certain feature which may or may not be present in the demo (to an extent)

Unreal Engine has some uh...interesting rendering bugs...

yeah idk how this happened. I just accidentally moved a slider too much and hell broke loose.

Progress Update No. 9.5

Merry late Christmas from Fredbear & Friends!

See you next year :)

Alongside the First Location, I've begun work on a 3d platformer! I need a break from horror, and I want to eventually make action games & platformers, so this felt like the right next step.

I swear it's more fun than my atrocious gameplay makes it look
