"News Post Thingie" numero uno for Cube's Dark Hours 4

(June 24th, 2025)


Pretend the image is a 1, or flame me in the comments, do whatever ┬┴┬┴┤(・_├┬┴┬┴


Will CDH4 take inspiration from FNAF4?

No, the game will not take any inspiration from FNAF4. This means there won't be any nightmare characters, no listening for breathing, no checking the bed or the closet, none of that.


What game will CDH4 take inspiration from?

I have no idea. There's no definitive answer for this one... yet.


How many characters will CDH4 have?

If we're only counting the "foes", the ones you "fight off", less than 10. That is, if I don't change my mind and accidentally make it 30.


How many cameras will CDH4 have?

Less than 20.


Will Night 6 be shorter in length compared to CDH3 and CDH1 Reopened?

Yes. I'm ready to ditch the 11-12 minute length of the night. I am also planning to ditch the time-set-back event that happens. Spending that long on a night is frustrating, even if Night 6 is on-par, harder or easier compared to Base Game nights.

The pattern of long, dragged-out Night 6s seen in CDH3 and CDH1 Reopened were more frustrating than fun, even with story significance or difficulty.

With CDH4, Night 6 will still be longer than the Base Game nights, but it will be nowhere close to the 11-12 minute mark.


Will Night 6 finally be on-par or harder?

I hope :p


Will CDH4 have more easter eggs and secret events?

Yes, yes it will. CDH4 will probably be the first game to have the most easter eggs and secrets... maybe, I don't know.


Which characters will we see return in CDH4?

Cube is here, as usual. There's The "Shadow" as well.

...I think that's where the list ends. Not a lot of characters, makes me a bit worried. Usually you'd see Anty, Spidor, etc., etc., but this list is... unusually small.


Will any previous VAs return for CDH4?

No, none of the previous VAs will be returning for CDH4. You'll understand in due time.

Hey, I'm still here!.. I think...


Will CDH4 have more settings?

Probably not. There were plans for adjustable audio, but I quickly realized that I have absolutely no idea how to make sliders. I'm talking about a custom slider, not the one that Clickteam includes.


Will CDH4 have controller support?

...How the heck do you even make that happen-


Will CDH4 have any ports?

No.

HTML5 would need lots of "sacrificing", which, at that point, it wouldn't even be CDH4.

An android port won't happen because I have no idea how to.


Did you plan to make CDH4 before CDH1 Reopened?

I did, but then I quickly decided to change my plans and set my sights onto making CDH1 Reopened. That's the simplest answer I can give, because we all know the original CDH1 needed to be remade/reimagined.


When are you going to remake the banner?

¯\_(ツ)_/¯


Just what the heck will you reveal once you reach 100 followers?

Something. Somethings? hmm, samethings. sumthing.

yeah.


That's all for today!

I could've shared more...

...Were you expecting me to say something?

Either way, take care, stay safe, God bless!

Fixed even more mobile-specific bugs for CDH1 Reopened (one example is the game over screen "return" and "restart" buttons not taking you to the correct locations)

GameJolt was down for a whole day, here's my "apology" post for not being able to share anything

How funny would it be if I were to make a v2.0 update for the original CDH1? Mainly for those that just want to either re-experience or are coming from Cube's Dark Hours Reopened

New poster to accompany trailer

After CDH4, I should consider getting beta testers for future games.

Anywho, here's some scrapped assets for the flashlight, and the whole flashlight mechanic itself.
