Listen to reason, man. Why make your job difficult?

I think the game is turning out really bad so I'm going to put some meme references in it so when everyone realizes it's bad they will think I made the game bad on purpose.

i'll make the scary nightmare section of the game with the distant sounds of a crying baby and a laughing clown and i will include a maze of hallways that are just a texture of trollface repeated

Huh. I didn't realize there was actually a game like that, I was just riffing on FNAF and the infinite knockoffs.

So it's like the hedge maze from the end of the shinning and yeah that's just it. Just do the end of the shinning exactly.

Anyway if we call it "Shining: the Parody" I'm pretty sure we can get away with not getting sued by WB

Always remember that the former President was dumber than the dumbest person you've ever met by a wide margin

I'm working on the prequel game that takes place in medieval times. It's the origin of Clownfoggio the demon. In this one, you wander through the halls of the castle and escape a demonic jester. It's a pretty fresh take on the whole thing.

1. who built this victorian mansion and then filled every room with Meat Hooks
2. Meat Hooks and other farm implements next to nice furniture?
3. one area is just a slaughter house, but in a mansion?
4. why the clowns
5. aren’t these clowns 1940’s era clowns why are they mixed with people in old timey victorian clothing
6. ok that’s a like renaissance ruffed collar that def doesn’t belong
7. I don’t think they had cassette tapes in any of these past eras
8. ok so, wait, why is there an oil painting of the mansion owner holding a Meat Hook, in a family portrait?? sure yeah decent into madness and all that but he hired someone to spend 80 hours painting him holding one?
9. sepia toned vhs filers doesn’t just mean “old timey” it should be like a phonograph

these and other questions def will not be answered in Hallway Simulator, Decent into Madness©️™️

We've themed it around the Mexican day of the dead. None of our Finn developers have ever been to Mexico but we really like the aesthetic and Jussi does the accent really well.

The people who owned this house were reasonably rich, so everywhere looks like the inside of Trump tower.

The dev's only reference for a typical US house is Home Alone.

Trixie Hardcore posted:

Just realized I could save a ton of development time if instead of having the player click the doors to open them I just put them on a hinge and the player can use their body to push the doors open.

To make it more realistic, the doors are not double-hinged. While being chased, you must remember which way each door opens.

Man wakes up in a haunted insane asylum. He sees the faceless surgeon standing over him. He tells the surgeon, "Doc, I feel trapped. Helpless. There's no escape from this endless nightmare asylum. What should I do?"

The doctor replies, "Go find the evil clown who stalks the halls of the asylum. When he catches you, he'll kill you and end your suffering."

"But, doctor!" the man cries, "I am the evil clown!"

Great ideas team, but how about we also give some of the game files slightly weird filenames? That way some internet weirdos will make hours long deep lore videos and basically make up the plot of our next game for us

a nostalgia pastiche of the 80’s, 90’s, and early 2000’s,

but as remembered by someone under 30 who is nostalgic for media that was celebrating the 80’s and 90’s of their own childhood which was like 7 years ago

So I want all the seventeen characters in my game to be fully voice acted. Voice actors cost money you say? whatever I'll just do all the voices. The webcam on my computer has a mic and sure I've never acted but I was the one who wrote all the dialogue. Like just remembering your lines is like 99% of what actors do right. It'll fine.

The game will be PC exclusive and require a controller to play effectively. The second part will include a mini game where you need to remain silent by controlling your breathing by slowly pressing the triggers in sync with the on-screen indicator. But your character has bronchospasm from their traumatic smoke inhalation as a child, so the indicator will jump around alot. If you fail this game you die.

Also there's permadeath because we don't want to coddle the player.
