Hello everyone, in this episode I will tell you how I came up with and added various monsters to the game.
Caretakers:
Yes, according to the game's lore, these characters are called "Caretakers", although in (Unity) I called them by the name (Bob), this was done for the Easter eggs for those who will climb into the game files.

Initially, there weren't supposed to be any monsters in the game, but a few months later, when I was working on the 2d version, I thought about adding creatures that just stood there and looked at the player for the sake of mystery. That's when I drew the first sketch of this creature:

After I started writing scripts, I came up with the idea that these creatures are silent, but then I decided to make one of them talkative.
By the way, I came up with that room with a lot of caretakers while working on the second chapter, and I had to draw faces for a lot of creatures.



For the portrait, I took as a basis the creatures from my previous game (Nightmare Dreams):


The Eater:
I've already shown you what inspired me to create the eater:

I don't know why I wanted to create it, but it appeared in the game. I had a lot of difficulties creating it, especially animating it, because it was bigger than the main character, so it was difficult for me, and I had to spend 2 days animating it.

As for the eater screamer, at first I wanted it through rotoscoping technology, but then I changed my mind and left the idea of rotoscoping for the next project, so I drew a portrait and animated it in (Unity):


The idea for the second variation of the monster came to me when I was finishing the plot of the game, initially I thought that in the second variation it would be all red, but then I realized that it would be strongly mixed with the rest of the game.


Something:
The idea of adding something like these are higher powers (Although according to the game's lore, he is the higher powers of purgatory) it came to me by chance, I was thinking that I would like to add another creature, and at first the idea of a big eye came to my mind, but then I watched that video (which I was talking about here - https://gamejolt.com/p/as-i-said-in-the-previous-post-here-is-a-reference-that-i-was-insp-usugerud ) and after a couple of days I decided to make something in the form of a head with this look.

Also, while I was thinking about the design of something, I had a nightmare at the end of which he was:

I thought I had another idea for something, but when I tried to draw it on paper from my nightmare, as you can see, it didn't work out (I still think I had this nightmare because I watched the channel (Doctor Nowhere)).
To emphasize that Something is something higher, I decided to add voice acting to it like in analog horror movies.
That's all, see you in the fourth and final episode.
