Guess that extra month of development time probably wasneeded. Update 22 Jan, 2016: Scott Cawthon, creator of the franchise, says he released the game too early and it doesn’t have features it needed. Still, a great gift to a playerbase that was certainly frustrated with the latest entry, if not wholly negative. Even with Cawthon’s legendarily quick development time, throwing away all that time and money isn’t cheap or easy. It’s a fairly extreme measure, even by the standards of friendly indie developers. From this point forward, the game will always be free.”Īs well as those promised additions and upgrades, he urged anyone who had bought it to refund, no matter how much they had enjoyed it.
When I’m ready to update the game, I will replace the demo currently on GameJolt with the full game. I’m busy creating a fully 3D overworld for the game. I’m still going to work on FNaF World and polish it up.
“Even though the game had a ‘Very Positive’ rating with 87%, I was not satisfied with the reviews and ratings it was getting. The announcement was made via the FNAF 4 Steam page, where Scott had this to say:
When it does re-release, it will be completely free and significantly upgraded. However, he has now pulled the game from sale while he works on it and has told Valve to allow customers to get a refund no matter how much time is on the clock. He said he would continue to work on the game and update it with these things for free, as well as expand it in general.
Releasing his game a month early, Scott Cawthon initially apologised for the state FNAF World was in, saying he had ignored key features that should have been available. Update 25 Jan, 2016:Scott Cawthon has pulled FNAF World from sale and is offering indefinite refunds. While development and release of the was certainly initially rushed, it looks like Cawthon is committed to correcting his mistakes, and totally free of charge. Via the Gamejolt description, this is just the first of planned updates for the game, which sits at version 0.1.1 on there. Knowing his past games, chances are something mysterious and bloody has been added in as an easter egg for dedicated fans to find too. Here’s what the new map looks like:Įxactly what else has been changed isn’t clear, but Cawthon’s promises upon first apologising for its early state and then taking it down included improving the interface to provide more pertinent information easier as well as the graphical upgrades.
Fans of the Five Nights at Freddy's saga will undoubtedly like the game, but it only takes half an hour of playing to realize that it's an outdated title in every respect.If you want to play it you can download it on Gamejolt. The battles, just like how they used to be in JRPGs from the 90s, are random and annoying and they're turn-based.įNaF World is an entertaining but improvable JRPG. In other words, you manage a group of characters, level them up, equip them with different objects, etc. Nothing makes any sense, but nor does the game try very hard in this respect.įNaF World's gameplay is the one typically found in the JRPG genre. Basically you play more than 40 characters from the FNaF universe as they embark on an adventure through a fantasy world shared with other evil creatures. Yes, those famously terrifying animatronics and all their friends: they're the protagonists.įNaF World's story is just as crazy as its cast of characters permits. FNaF World is an RPG with a turn-based combat system where the protagonists are the characters from the popular horror franchise Five Nights at Freddy's.
