What the game is about

The theme of this (currently unnamed) game is dreams, specifically lucid dreams. I took inspiration from FNAF 4 and Project Box, hence the art style to create a gloomy looking game with a very limited colour pallette. Although it might look somewhat similar, the gameplay will look completely different and takes on the form of a simple FNAF 1 clone, at least to begin with.

What characters will be in the game?

I chose to make my characters mostly original in this game, simply because I cannot for the life of me draw any FNAF character other than FNAF Plus Bonnie or Freddy (I tried making a FNAF+ game for ages). Also, if I like the designs, I could reuse them and put them in something original.

As of now, I have created one original character (with a similar one in my head) and added in a character from one of the Clickteam games who I shan't name until the game releases (Trust me, it's not who you think).

Why are you making this game?

Didn't you read the title? -_-

But in all seriousness, I made this project simply to practice and learn GameMaker, so I'd be able to create something bigger in the future with the experience gained from this game. This is my first actual game I've made, and I wanted to deliberately make it as small as possible, but if people actually play it, maybe I'll remaster it and add post game content or smth.

Stuff I don't yet know

Number of nights/levels there will be,

Amount of characters exceeding the 3 planned,

Lore,

If there will be post game content,

How the doors in the office will work

How I'm gonna do jumpscares

When it'll release (It could take until 2026 for all I know)

Anyways, that's pretty much all for now, I'll just be silently working on this for a few months and will show some new screenshots when the game is more developed.
