Hi everyone this is the first proper devlog for the game since a lot has been worked on.
PROGRESS 80-90%
Nice progress overall ! Outside of sounds the Main Gameplay is entirely coded. Only leaving the extras stuff to add. Insure how long it take due to having to plan out some very specifics thing for it.
ASPECT RATIO ( I SWEAR IT'S SORTA INTERESTING)
I want to talk about the aspect ratio of the game for a bit but to fully understand that you will need some context. The original Five Nights at Wario's : Rebooted was made using Scratch. Scratch is an engine that only allow for the most part 4:3 game and Rebooted was no exception to this rule.
Below you can find screenshot of it.
Those are screenshot I took myself since I have the game however if you wish to see more click here to watch @EpicTagey_Games videos on the game. I recommend giving his older video a look you can find quite a lot of interesting older fangame and I been listening to those while working on the game. To go back on topic. This version you are more likely unfamiliar due to the fact a Clickteam version of the game was released later and became more popular.
Here some screenshot from that version.
Those screenshot come from Tagey video on the game. Click here to give it a watch.
As you might have noticed this version is in 16:9 and honestly look bad. That due to the game being stretched from it's original aspect ratio to this one. For SE I decided to go back to 4:3 so that the game look overall better. However I know there are people out there who may not be a fan of the game having black border when being fullscreen. This is why I been working on a few thing that should hopefully make it nicer.
BORDER
Honestly I am not sure if I have seen other fangame try to add border into their game but I still did it.
I think it look great and work very well during the time I been testing it. You can also see that the color change depending on where you are on the game. You can also change it's brightness.
But what if you somehow STILL don't like it even with border ?
ASPECT RATIO TOGGLE
Directly in the options menu you are now allowed to change between the game being 4:3 and stretched 16:9. This should hopefully make it so everyone can play the game how they like. Either in the good old 4:3 or in all it's stretchy glory.
HOW DID THIS GAME HAS TAKEN SO LONG
In all honestly I was sure this game would be done in a month. As time went on I wanted to add more stuff and changed other thing around. Recently the game also have gone trough a huge glow up as you can see with the screenshot with new options. I had also recoded the entire main gameplay to make it more polished. This should be the end of the devlog so cya.
