I'd like to apologize for the lack of updates about 17 days ago, but I'll just get this post out of the way explaining on what's been going on behind the scenes, addressing the elephant in the room and the future for this fangame aswell.

Alright so, even though some of the assets for the weekend nights and the game over screens being half-way done. Bonnet's Location 2: The Grand Reopening will be receiving yet again another overhaul, because of it's 2024 version that was previously announced around 11 months ago has unfortunately now been scrapped, cowabummer, I know..
But let me explain as to what's been going and why @FoxyGamer1980 isn't going to be coding for this game as the second developer anymore.

Simply put, @FoxyGamer1980 is leaving the fnaf community and your first question would be why?
The reason why is because @FoxyGamer1980 got wrongfully shitted on, just by looking into a drama situation to see which sides are in the right or wrong and losing motivation after developing on start of week 2 - (this was before the second overhaul)
I won't go into full detail, but if you want to get a more better understanding about this, go watch the statement video by @FoxyGamer1980 : https://gamejolt.com/p/a-statement-2sthn2si

Despite all of this, does it mean that Bonnet's Location 2: The Grand Reopening is getting cancelled, along with it's future projects?
Obviously, the answer is no.
Bonnet's Location 2: The Grand Reopening is just in a rough position of being in development limbo, but it is still happening along with Poppy The Cat: Let The Show Begin and that Bonnet's Location remake too. Even including Bonnet's Location: Custom Night, which was previously announced on the 4th anniversary devlog for Bonnet's Location.
Speaking of which..
@FoxyGamer1980 has something to say about it, so here you go!:
FOXYGAMER1980 - โReal quick let me just say this, this version of the revival wonโt be the same one that was announced November of last year (which I should say now, that version was called โBonnetโs Location: Aftermath") this version aims to be somewhat faithful to the original scrapped version of that game and will simply be called โBonnetโs Location: Custom Nightโ, Iโll tell more details on what this game will be like once 2025 rolls in, but Iโll just say this, hope youโre ready to revisit aftonโs auction inc one final time!"

Now, although the poster from 17 days ago did reveal a slated release for 2025, do keep in mind, that an actual release date is still yet unknown until Bonnet's Location 2: The Grand Reopening is fully finished and beta-tested first.
I want to make sure that this fangame isn't rushed or filled with bugs, I especially don't want it to act messy either.
So, the release date will be announced whenever it's really ready.

From now on, Bonnet's Location 2: The Grand Reopening will still be developed by me, but will be seeking out a new second developer for further coding / development. I might also end up adding a third developer to the roster, but we'll see.
@FoxyGamer1980 will still be voice-acting as sparky and asset-making will continue as per usual, albeitย with some having small changes, but it will remain the same.
I'll also be taking the time by watching youtube tutorials, plus getting advice from my friends to improve and learn new things about game development than before.
I will explain more info regarding about the overhaul, when the time comes.

No clue, but I'll get out a proper announcement about it soon until someone agrees to partake into being a second developer.
For now, that will remain a mystery for me to figure out..

And with that all out of the way, I just to apologize yet again for making ya'll wait this long and it sucks, I know.
But I kindly ask all of you to wait patiently for a bit longer, as this fangame will be slowly picking up steam when it's development continues.
However, I'll be taking a break for now as I am going to watch the new animated transformers movie at a local odeon luxe cinema, so expect a review of that movie for tonight or tomorrow!
