Five Days at Sunshine Daycare

Pre-Dev Log #1


🌞 Pre-Dev Log #1

🧠 Status: Sunshine... but something feels wrong...

✅ Progress:

  • Planning core gameplay loop and survival mechanics

  • Core idea solidified: You're not just surviving... you're completing tasks under insane pressure

🎭 Planned Vibes:

  • Bright, colorful daycare masking pure horror

  • Animatronics with too-perfect smiles (uncanny valley x1000)

  • Tension of daytime horror: you're awake, alert, and still not safe

  • "It's just five days... how bad could it be?" (Answer: REAL BAD.)

🖥️ Gameplay Core:

  • Camera system = your eyes, your only line of defense

  • Balancing survival + work = the ultimate stress simulator

  • SmileTrack = your so-called "helper"... (trust issues unlocked)

🔮 Dev Note:
"Sunshine doesn't mean safety.
Sometimes, the brightest places cast the darkest shadows."

👀 Bonus Hints for the Real Ones:

  • Animatronics have routines... but routines can be broken.

  • Not every task is as harmless as it seems.

  • There's something lurking even beyond the cameras... something SmileTrack doesn't want you to see.

Daycare theme but creepy

Probably weird daycare robots

Here's a peaceful little forest scene for this #screenshotsaturday, from the beginning of the game.

I have added rewards for quests so that villagers can give you something in return for your hard work helping them. 🥳

I want to know - what's your favourite quest reward?
