I've Been Making a Game!! (Hello, Neighbor! Reborn Devlog 1)

[@Arisvfx69]

havent seen the vid but it probably looks cool af

[@OwenCampos]

You have no idea how happy it makes me seeing the progress you've made in just a few months. I set out to give people the basic building blocks of a Hello Neighbor fan game with my template, and let people build off of it and call it their own. And you're doing exactly that! I can imagine you adding a bunch more unique mechanics and systems in the future! Keep at it, you're doing great so far.

[@greeshargamesarchive]

Owen btw i also used your template and yeah your template is the only one that exists so thank you

[@siddpujari7091]

Yo man. For the boiler, you should make it so that when you use it, it distracts the neighbor and makes him come there and he changes the temperature back.

[@gornotheperson3771]

awesome idea

[@Wasplin_Official]

yeah and should also add an idle task where the neighbor fuels the boiler periodically

[@Ferrez_fnfplayer]

I have more ideas: if you click e on a toilet it will flush and the neighbor will run to the bathroom. Another idle task: make him clean stuff like tables, and drawers. Make the neighbor hear your mic cuz why not. and the last one: if you get caught alot in the same area and theres a closet there, theres a chance the neighbor will be in there and then jump out at you.

[@Mike14264]

Hey, very nice! It's cool tbat you're working on a fangame of your own!

[@sunnystar707]

the sound effects are EVERYTHING i love this so much!!! the ambiance is so good i cant wait for this full thing to come out !! even if its far i cant wait for the demos/videos on current progress !

[@justsomebritishdude]

This looks cool! It’d be great to bring back the MC's hand when holding items, but less in the player’s face. I'd say it would fit because Hello Neighbor tried to give the protagonist an identity, unlike most Mascot Horror's which either tease or make them blank (I know, a positive in Hello Neighbor, crazy). Just a suggestion, obviously a simple addition like this wouldn't make the game 12000x better, do whatever you think is right

[@Ukifukso]

This is super impressive for a first game, and only being made in around two months too is insane, even with help, you should be really proud! I also have a few ideas for the game you might want to think about, probably would be pretty hard to implement but still some cool ideas, like the neighbor being able to see objects missing or broken, lights being on or off that weren't before, the player's footsteps, doors being open, doors being closed near him, boards on windows being taken down, stuff like that. I'd also really like to see the unused pre alpha neighbor mecanecs, like him being able to hear things being thrown or moved loudly, any locks on the basement door being unlocked near him, and the object traps he sets up in hallways you go in a lot. I know that's a lot to think about, but you really don't need to add any of it in if you don't want to, do whatever you want its your fangame, just giving some suggestions. uh anyway looks super cool great job!

[@BonnieFan69]

@@Ukifukso those are all really good suggestions, and i do plan to add all them! or as many as i can. i wanna make lights more of a major focus in the game as well, such as different bulbs having different properties and the neighbor not being able to see you as well when the lights are off. i wanna make him feel realistic as possible. sort of a mix between his pre alpha and alpha 2 ai

[@Vambrayse]

@@BonnieFan69 great to hear!

[@b.e.b.e9685]

I know you can do it I have been watching you vids for A long time you are really talented can’t wait to Play and see your game never give up 😅.

[@mathewzuniga1760]

looks very cool and has alot of potential, very hyped for a playable release 👍

[@Tracer_James]

you should make animations for using things like using the hammer and opening doors with keys

[@dinosario1236]

awesome stuff man, by far this seems to be one of the most unique mods I have seen for the game, keep it up bro

[@SomePigeonBuddies]

This is Amazing! You Should Make Tutorial How to make FanGame Like that

[@spaceguy6182]

Looks kinda similiar to that one hello neighbor pre alpha remake game, Btw someone is remaking alpha 1 you should try it out it looks like an 1:1 recreation and still captures that "magic vibe" that the offical old hello neighbor builds had.

[@Kacper42PL]

Well that's a surprise to be recommended something like this after getting into HN mood lately. Can't wait for the entire thing!

[@PanMan47]

Been a while since I caught up with your channel, looks awesome!

[@kicacekov4962]

I love the sfx its like asmr almost, thats a good thing too.

[@DrSeaDevil]

This is shaping to be incredible! Though I’m not sure on the box placing down sfx because it’s really only meant to play when the box is placed on plates. Just a thought that maybe it doesn’t play a noise unless that happens? That’d be cool

[@BonnieFan69]

ive heard about that before but i dont know if it's true because it seems like a really niche scenario to have a sound effect for

[@DrSeaDevil]

@@BonnieFan69 Eh idk I thought it’s just for the trailer just to add. But just an idea :)

[@lookitisstorob]

You did nice with this devlog! I am excited for the devlog 2.

[@CooperTeague-ps5vx]

Bro this looks cool! Are you gonna give it a story?

[@BonnieFan69]

@@CooperTeague-ps5vx yep! it won't be a story driven game though, but there will be a story in the background to piece together

It looks amazing! When it will be released please make full walkthrough of this!

[@Kaltec.]

Looks fire bro i cant wait to play this when it releases 🔥🔥

[@jcrimson.]

this is sick!! will there be a full house for the player too? also the code for the door should be random, and if you do all fhe floors you should add an elevator

[@BonnieFan69]

@@jcrimson. the player house will be bigger, yes, cause rn it SUCKS

[@Ferrez_fnfplayer]

Make it so that if you for example, open a door and dont close it behind you the neighbor will go into hunt mode for a lil bit

[@Daniel_d573fjd]

Tbh I think that should only be the case for the front, back, and garage doors. I'm sure most people wouldn't really care if random doors around their house were open or not

[@Ferrez_fnfplayer]

@@Daniel_d573fjd yeah that makes sense, i think people would be scared if your front door was open

[@jcrimson.]

There should be a chance for the neigjbor to take off/just not wear his gloves, using the hide and seek model

[@Daniel_d573fjd]

Like when he goes to bed or takes a bath

[@gornotheperson3771]

i am so hyped this looks awesome

[@gornotheperson3771]

very small suggestion: add animation for door handles

[@C.Nathan-z8b]

Yo! It looks sick! I noticed you added the Pre-Alpha house, is this going to be like that one mod where it was the Alpha 1 house with all floors but now it's the Pre-Alpha house?

[@BonnieFan69]

@@C.Nathan-z8b thats the plan!

[@C.Nathan-z8b]

@@BonnieFan69 Cool!

[@ili-h]

in one stage, the neighbor can do these things. in the second stage, the neighbor does not do these things, but does this thing, and the rearrangement of the house changes. this is my favourite feature in Pre-Alpha this is me - Zoom-733

[@skipperiny]

Im a HUGE fan of the pre-alpha and seeing this mod makes me excited for its future i like the outdoors ambience alot it makes the house feel isolated and the switch from the loud streets to the quiet and mysterious ambience combined with the neighbors footsteps makes the exprience even scarier i have high hopes for this project

[@Wh1te0ut15]

Honestly looks amazing, kind of disappointing yet amazing that the quality and passion that goes into these fan games is greater than what went into the actual game.

[@MaddMaster69]

This looks amazing. I’m an aspiring game dev and am wondering if you have any advice for getting into that “industry” for a lack of better terms. What kind of education do you need?

[@BonnieFan69]

no education whatsoever. im a highschool graduate and i managed to get into it. it just takes practice and a lot of patience. and tutorials in my case, lol

[@MaddMaster69]

@@BonnieFan69 Wow, that's pretty cool.

[@RingoDingo19]

can you add the old door locking sound effecr and the neighbour swearing

How do you make the neighbor passing sound?

[@BonnieFan69]

i just use a box collision that enables whenever the player is hidden inside the wardrobe with both doors closed. then it checks to see if the neighbor overlaps it, and if he does, it plays the sound

also do u know where ur going with the story/lore?? or are u still in process of making that?? because it would be so awesome if there was cut scenes and stuff , i feel like cut scenes was what was missing from the game from the very start , the lack of story explaining was so upsetting. having a cut scene of the player (nicky) move into raven brooks , interact with the neighbors son (aaron) exactly like the book , that small of a cut scene would have literally explained everything. a 1 minute thing , its so disappointing everything is tbh 😭 the potentials wasted despite everything else

How do you make door locked with the door latch?

[@BonnieFan69]

@@MyEditionOfficialChannel its a long process and i made it in the most inefficient way possible. i seperated the model into 3 parts, and whenever i interact with the latch it rotates, then moves, then rotates again. and then for closing it does that just in reverse. and then there's just a variable checking if the latch is closed or not the way you're supposed to do it is with a skeletal mesh but i admit i couldn't figure that out

How do you make the neighbor can open the door and close it?
