Time sure does fly by, woops

Page updates

If you check this page often then you may have noticed that there have been a bunch of updates to it.

Starting off with the title, I finally decided to drop the episodic model. So instead of FNaCreeper 3 Episode 1 and FNaCreeper 3 Episode 2, you'll get FNaCreeper 3 and FNaCreeper 4 instead.

This is how it should've been since the beginning but I'm a dumb bear who decided to overcomplicate things.

I added a couple gameplay screenshots to the page since the gameplay is nearing completion (more on that in a bit)

I also added images and system requirements to the description just to make it look a bit nicer.

Progress

In 2020, I barely made progress on this game. School, COVID and personal issues have been affecting me and I didn't have time or motivation for game development. On top of that, I started to regret some of the decisions I made for this game, which just made things worse.

This has changed recently though and I've actually made a good amount of progress last month, and I think it's because I decided to cut out a bunch of features and details that were unnecessary and decided to just focus on the important stuff.

That said, here's the state of the game:

• Nights 1 & 2, including cutscenes and everything, are fully complete and playable. There's still a few details missing here and there, but I'll add those later.

• Main gameplay for nights 1-5 is completed. All except one of the characters have been programmed.

• All voice work is complete.

• Work on all cutscenes has begun.

If you want to keep up with the game's progress as time goes on, you can check this post every once in a while. I didn't update it too much recently but I'll start updating it again soon.

Trailer

I started working on the trailer a long time ago, but just like the game, not much progress has been made. I already know exactly how the trailer is gonna be structured but in terms of production, it's only about halfway done.

I can safely say that this will be the best trailer I've made so far, at least from my perspective. Why? You'll just have to wait to find out I guess.

(love gamejolt's crispy jpeg compression!)

As for the trailer's release date, I have an idea for when it'll be released, but I won't say anything because I'll most likely just end up delaying the trailer.

Special announcement

And finally, the most exciting thing to happen to this series in quite a while, Five Nights at Creeper's Remastered is getting a major update.

I know, I said many times in the past that I wouldn't do it, but I just really wanna get rid of the CRINGE CYCLES NOISE that plagues this game's renders...

Seriously though, I have many reasons for this.

• I've learned a lot about Blender and Clickteam since I made this game.

• I bought the Fusion 2.5+ DLC so I can optimize this game even more.

• I wanted to make some small retcons and this update gives me the opportunity to do it.

• The NULL bits need to be reworked.

• FNaCreeper 3 continues the story from where FNaCreeper Remastered left off, so this is the best opportunity to do it because FNaCreeper 3 is nearing completion.

Keep in mind that this isn't a remaster of a remaster. The game won't actually change that much. I will simply update the graphics, make minor improvements to the AI, change the story bits that need to be changed, and also add some fun little extras.

If this update does well, I'll consider making a major update of FNaCreeper 2 as well.

So that's it for this devlog. See you soon.
