What do you think?

Found this from the TRTF Fantasy Land server, and I gotta say, this seems really interesting. I wish you the best of luck on this! :D

played the pre-release 1, obviously a treat as a TRTF 5 fan, was a big fan of the way things were lit, and how it looked with the flashlight off.

Yo this project looks awesome so far! I especially like the lighting in the teasers. Which version of unreal is this made in?

-Description-

"Did any of this ever happen? Is everything a lie? I feel the constant shift in reality. My mind is scrambled. I must leave this twisted and distorted world..."

"Life is but a butterfly's dream..."

TRTF Ascent is a reimagining of a cancelled FNAF fan game called The Return to Freddy's 5 by Edmund Ahlstöm (formerly BFPfilms424 and PoniatorFilms). This game is rebuilt from the ground up with new ideas never seen in a TRTF game and aims to fully realize the potential of TRTF5. The story is rewritten but remains somewhat faithful to the original story. It features reimagined gameplay with full free roam, many floors to explore, puzzles to solve, and threats to avoid. Throughout your ascent through the dreadful Fazbear INC, your past will unravel as well as the events that lead to your journey.

This games inspiration comes from the TRTF series, the FNaF series, the Amnesia series, The cancelled P.T. Silent Hills, and Silent Hill 1 - 4.


-Features-

  • 11 main floors

  • A few secret floors

  • Free Roam gameplay

  • A full inventory system
