Yup, TNF is getting a brand new image, take a look! 




Last year I started to make the whole game again from scratch (It was only the first chapter so not really a big deal)
Why?
At first I just wanted to upgrade the graphics, overall it wasn´t looking how I wanted it to, so I started messing with lights, lighting settings, etc. and I don't know if it had something to do with a certain package or with a Unity update but...
let's say the project just wasn´t working exactly fine. 
Something went wrong with the rendering and I didn't know what to do, most things in the game were just magenta blocks and I started to really think that was the end of the project. But then, I saw an opportunity.
I thought about how some of the 3d models weren´t mine, and didn't have any optimization at all, I thought about how many players had struggles dealing with the mechanics, and also I thought about how messy my code was.
So that's how I decided to remake the whole thing, with my new knowledge and also the story of the game (which has not been revealed but it's being written by me and @_moon    ) starting to take a clear direction, I think it was a good choice to remake everything so it adapts to the current situation of the game.

Well, if you are somehow still reading this, I'll give you a little context for the screenshots you saw at the top of this post:
You're playing as Aaron, and living his nightmares.
This first chapter takes place in his house, when he was kid and was in a sleepover with his friend, Matthew (Not in the game yet) waiting for a marathon of their favorite show to start at 3:00 am.
The mask is the antagonist of said show, and it represents a kid's fear of the unknown evil hiding in the darkness.
If you played the old version of the game, here are some diferences in the mechanics:
- The window is now replaced by the closet. 
- You can no longer hide in the blankets, it's replaced with turning the TV off. 
- The totem no longer exists, it's replaced with Matthew, whom you must keep awake. 
- The chapter now ends when the clock reaches 3:00 am, but starts at 10:00 pm. 
I think that's pretty much it, I'll try to finish this chapter as soon as possible so I can finally work in the second chapter.
