The Dev Log (3/20/26):

What’s been up with development?

Development has been relatively slow and rough over the years, but it’s been okay. At some point the mod was near completion when it was on Psych Engine dated back to 2023, but it never reached that finish line because there was a decision to switch engines to Codename, and that’s one of the main things that’s been occurring since the very beginning, engine changes (Psych, Codename, Godot, etc.).

Engine changes have led to constant demos because one of the main targets was to test engine capabilities. But now, a major leap was actually made, since one of the top priorities is to have this fangame run like Baldi’s Basics and have it as faithful as possible. To an extent, this fangame now officially uses Unity!! That’s right, with Godot being too “simple” and not preferable by Nanes, he decided to make yet another switch. But hey, it’s for the best! If the Psych Engine build was released back in 2023 it probably wouldn't have come out as great and detailed as it is now. As for FNF Engines they are way too complex for 3D stuff and gimmicks, while it is possible they require extra coding typically with experience and is too much for one person. Now remember, Nanes is the one that is in charge of all the programming, assets, modeling + maps, music, and all that extra stuff that’s done for the game. 

Reasoning for lack of updates/announcements:

As mentioned, solo development work is pretty complicated especially if you’re basically the only person doing literally everything for the game. While working on the last demo, Nanes had other stuff on his hands which is why it had to be delayed several times. Another overwhelming thing was having to run the social media and game pages by yourself, as it gets to a point where it just becomes hard to manage over time. That’s why Twisty and I, Whizchis (mainly the one writing this) are here to serve you with as many updates as possible so you guys aren’t left in the shadows! Worse than that, possibly even the deep depths of Baldi’s Super Schoolhouse.

Conclusion:

To conclude, there is plenty of stuff coming in the future! Development is currently going well, and now Twisty and Whiz will be assisting Nanes in his journey to make sure that announcements, teasers, sneak peaks and updates drop. We have many more dev logs planned and this’ll be our first, we do know it’s short but it’ll do for now. We can’t reveal too much either. Instead look forward to what we have planned 👀. You may have already seen this posted on our social media and Discord, but take a look at what’s brewing in the Wild West!

Anyways, thank you all for tuning in! See you guys in the next dev log!
