Right now the game is in testing phase, I've had it private for a while but the game page is basically ready to go, so why not.
However, the internet is the internet, and I'm going to need to make a very important statement.
This goes without saying, but I am well aware of the reputation Green Jerry got after what happened with Chaves Nightmares. I've been thinking about making this public for a while, and I think now is the right time to announce the game. Without going into too much detail and for those who aren't in the loop (it's a big rabbit hole and I'm not trying to deal with that), scroll through some of my old Game Jolt posts and look for FNaBP But Better's cancellation. But basically put; Green Jerry got himself into a very bad spot some time after Chaves Nightmares blew up on Game Jolt (these followers were not real), due to horrible moderation in that game's Discord server and also showing very immature behavior. And no, I do not condone any of Green Jerry's awful shit he did.
So, why did I make this game if I knew that Green Jerry was like this and knowing about the negative reception this game may get? A couple reasons. First, One Night at Lockjaw's always stuck out as an interesting game to me, and the 2nd game caused me to get pretty hyped. Second, when it was cancelled and I saw the MFA, looking at it gave off what was probably the most disappointed feeling I've ever had in a game developer in a long time. Yes, you can consider me someone who likes One Night at Lockjaw's. I'm not exactly a fan of the game, but the idea does have potential.
There's also the fact that Green Jerry also left Game Jolt and deleted his account (which, why? that only makes it harder to find your games and other shit you've made), meaning most of his stuff is gone. People have reuploaded his games, but there's more to the rabbit hole.
So, to wrap this up, I know what happened to Green Jerry and I don't condone what he did, and I don't expect a fully positive reception to come out of this game. But, I'm asking that you PLEASE do me a huge favor. For the love of God, do not bash on the game just because of Green Jerry's actions. Instead, treat the game based off of how it is as a game, like the graphics, the gameplay, the lore, the balancing, etc. If you give this game a fair chance, then you'll be fine.
If you're actually at this point and really did read everything, thanks for understanding why I'm making this game and hopefully giving this a fair chance. I am fully committed to making this game the absolute best that it can be, and truthfully the game is mostly done anyway (about 65%), so release shouldn't be all that far off. Now, take care.
