Hi guys! I decided today I would post a QNA for the anniversary of the original Five Nights at Sonic's 3. This was originally meant for the FNaS Anniversary, I was kind of just lazy and never typed it until yesterday.

Q: What got you into FNaS?

A: I got back into the series in the summer of 2020, but recently I found a few comments on Taste’s channel on FNaS 5 and SPS so it seems I definitely was a fan for a while. I guess I could say it was Taste who got me into it, combined with my love for Sonic and Mario.

Q: Do you think you’ll make another FNaS Fangame?

A: I have a lot of ambitious ideas, both relating to Reburned and just other ideas in general. If I put them into action, they won’t be revealed until I have a good amount done, but I do think some day I will make another FNaS Fangame directed by me.

Q: How did the MM Recoded/Infinite and Reburned Crossover happen?

A: There’s actually this really old message from December 2020 or January 2021 with Smiler saying how he wanted Reburned in MM Plus (before PLUS was officially canceled, it was planned to be fully recoded after Next Gen) So when MM Infinite started development, it was kind of inevitable in my opinion that Reburned would have been added eventually, since I was on the dev team before then.

Q: What do you think will be your future career?

A: This question was asked before then, but I’m actually taking a Graphics class in high school now that gives college credits! After high school, I will probably either pursue a Graphic Design/Artist career or maybe a Computer Programming career.

Q: What made you want to make Reburned originally?

A: If you go really far back into my messages in the FNaS Server, (I was really weird in like November - December 2020, so ignore that…) You’ll see two other ideas I had for FNaS Fangames, being FNaS Act 2.5 and FNaS Cobalt Edition. One was an in between of FNaS 2 and 3 (It didn’t really work since I barely knew about the real story of FNaS) and the other was a cobalt chaos like game (it was basically some sort of copy because I thought the game was dead lmaoo.) Who knows, maybe I’ll reincorporate Act 2.5 into something new. ;) Anyway, I think I just wanted to make a FNaS fangame and chose to remake FNaS 3 because nothing originally I thought of really worked.

Q: Which FNaS game is your favorite?

A: FNaS 3. It’s the most fun to me because it’s always so action packed. 

Q: Who was your favorite and least favorite AI to code?

A: My favorite was probably Salvage (Normal Night). He took the longest since the others are based off him, and it was fun trying to find good ways to make his AI work, even if it's dated and could definitely be better. Least favorite would probably be Balloon Toad, not due to the programming itself but the way I did it. I don’t dislike it but I definitely did it kind of weirdly.

Q: What was your inspiration on changing Withered Toy Yoshi’s design or having the mechanic of BOO?

A: Withered Toy Yoshi’s design is a weird one. She was originally supposed to not even have claws, but when I first made the drawing Mark suggested giving her claws (probably as a joke but I actually did it and liked it.) Boo’s mechanic is based on how they dislike it if you look at them in the Mario games.

Q: Why does Withered Toy Yoshi have claws?

A: Outside of the game, it was just a fun little addition and I personally think it made the character design cool. Canonically, no reason would really make sense. In my mind at the time (I believe it’s stated in game)  I said Eggman had added it to her for fun, which makes no sense since he doesn’t really get any gain from it. I’ll stick with this reason for now, though.

Q: What’s your favorite character?

A: Assuming it’s about Reburned, my favorite would definitely be Boo. I personally think his  character design and art aged the best out of everyone else. FNaS Itself, I think it’d have to be Withered Toy Mario solely because we’re both deaf (Fun fact, I was born partially deaf in both ears.) I also like Withered Mario and ‘27 Golden Sonic.

Q: How does it feel to have one of the most followed FNaS Fangames?

A: It’s an incredibly weird feeling. When I started, I thought when I made the page nobody would like it at all and would get extremely unmotivated. Obviously, this wasn’t the case. Even if Reburned didn’t age the best, I’m proud of what it seems to have become. It makes me happy to see others happy.

Q: What would you feel the worst and best parts of Reburned are?

A: The best part of Reburned is gameplay execution. I understand more now what a FNaF 3 type game should play like, and I accidentally made it work in Reburned. Worst part would either be the optimization or the dated art. Probably the optimization, though.

Q: What are your opinions on people who edit the save file?
A: Unless the game bugs you out whatever you’re kind of a wuss lmao.

Q: Do you like FNaPPG and/or SPS?

A: FNaPPG 1-3 are okay, they could’ve been executed better, same with SPS, they're okay. I personally think FNaPPG 4 is a huge improvement over the last 3 though, but I haven’t played it yet, only watched some.

Q: Are you ever gonna add big content to the game in the future, like skins?

A: Sometimes I think about this, but I feel like it’s best to leave the game as it is. I don’t enjoy drawing in the games art style that much anymore, the game is already pretty big due to dumb decisions I made when first starting the game, so it could end up beefing up an already unoptimized game.

Though, just because I probably won’t touch this game, doesn’t mean I won’t ever do anything with Reburned again. ;)
