Making My Own DREAM SCP Horror Game - Devlog #1

[@Kell-b9n]

Another person who missing concept of SCP's entirely. But what to expect from someone who played only 5K and SCP SL. I bet you are one of those ppl who disovered SCP Foundation post-2018. Maybe making SCP related game isn't your best bet, if you can't take it seriosly for minute.

@@Kell-b9n womp womp

[@Kell-b9n]

@@LenexTL This is what i talking about. Seems you cant take criticism really well, when you pinned me. Learn to tolerate other peoples views, not everyone is here to glaze you. Another shallow SCP game, from someone who wasn't in the fandom for 10 years. Learn some mannerisms.

[@V6HAVOC]

You got bigger problems bro some random dude getting SCP slightly incorrect will not affect your quality of life

[@Kell-b9n]

​@@V6HAVOCyeah it will.

If I don't sound as energetic in this video as I usually do its cause I recorded the audio for this devlog at 12am, and did not feel like getting my ass whooped by my mom :3

[@gamor_lol]

I think it will be a cool addition if you make the player have arms and these arms appear in different locations depending on the current item held. For example if holding a flashlight it wouldn't just be a floating view model in your face and will look more like you are actually holding it like a person. Also if the player's shadow will be visible you can make it so it looks like the player is holding the camera with one arm. Good luck on your project!

[@LenexTL]

I will most likely not do this for this project, as I have already implemented a lot and would have to rework it to add the arms, but for the other parts this does sound like a really cool thing to add

[@LenexTL]

For anyone who wants to say updated on the game and its series, this is the official Discord channel where I'll answer questions, post updates, and etc: discord.gg/dXgBu9J93P

[@chatt3rbot44]

Dang this looks good... This should have wayyyy more attention than it does. Glad I got to see it

[@razvanvasilache7834]

i'm waiting for this to randomly blow up like 3 years later

[@LenexTL]

@@razvanvasilache7834 why not 3 weeks or days 🥲

[@razvanvasilache7834]

@LenexTL rewards need work sadly

[@Somebody0960]

Just to clarify, there are a lot of scp facilities, not just one

[@artg556]

I think it's a good choice to distance yourself from the concept of facility, as cool as it is, it ends up becoming very repetitive and cliché after a while.Also, I think it will be much easier to work with one scp per chapter than working on multiple ones for a single game. Anyway,good luck with the project.

[@LenexTL]

@@artg556 exactly my thinking. People would not be as interested in the project and game if it were just another SCP game inside the facility. But considering its overall more story driven and focuses on SCPs not commonly (if at all) seen in games, people are more likely to check it out and buy it

[@galacticempire42]

Man I'm loving it so far, hopefully when you get the game completed you can have igp play it

[@burglar1235]

That honestly looks really fun! Can't wait to follow the project!

[@Willetin]

You should try to actually recreate the behaviour of 4666 (stalking from the woods for about 2 ingame nights, then staring from the window at night for 1 or 2 ingame nights, then start having it climb into the attic, or roof (generating a smell that the player notices, continuing this behaviour for about 3 nights.) then have it break inside and have this current type of behaviour(chase the player around until it either catches the player, bringing it to it's lair and basically making the player a slave (bad ending) or the police/MTF get there on time, eliminating 4666 and the game ends in the good ending.), (It needs stages to it's behaviour), and not have it just roam around, the graphics are good, the models are good, but the behaviour is absolutely garbage.

[@LenexTL]

@@Willetin as said in the video, I’ve already thought of that and I can 10000% promise that the AI during the actual gameplay will act like 4666 (at least the best I am able to make it)

[@TheCatMask]

I'm genuinely excited for this, this seems like its going to be good (please add a sandbox)

[@LenexTL]

@@TheCatMask a sandbox game mode?

[@TheCatMask]

@@LenexTL something simple, a decent area that could double as a dev map with summonable items/scps and stuff,

[@LenexTL]

@@TheCatMask I'll see what I can do. Never made a sandbox before, so that would be something new.

[@TheCatMask]

@ yeah, even outside of just being a sandbox like I suggested it could be good to test things in Like behaviors in different areas or around SCPS

[@tropical2153]

Good luck man

[@nexus_tn]

the game so far looks great! and you really got me motivated to continue making my own game so thanks soo much you deserve sm more attention. also a suggestion you could do is some kind of aquatic scp. because a lot of people (including me) have thalassophobia which would be absolutely horrifying

[@commandercat1222]

this is honestly impressive, cant wait to see a finished product! _if only this constant camera wobbling and filter didnt make me dizzy tho_

[@LenexTL]

I'll most likely add an option in the Gameplay Settings to disable the VHS filter (although it wouldn't make sense story wise) to accommodate people with motion sickness or etc

[@toastedwaffle11]

You should make it so that 4666 stalks you and like in the lore there’s a day system where he goes from stalking you to attacking, just a suggestion though. keep working and I can’t wait for it to release!

[@LenexTL]

I to take creative liberties with some aspects, but without spoiling anything, the game stays relatively lore accurate for all SCPs in the series

[@thedestroyer4342]

You make crazy Santa and that makes me happy

[@krakengang9085]

I hope you do one of the chapters on something from the cactus verse or that big sea monster that teleports you to it with water! keep up the good work!

[@thebonkman]

i hope this project continues! i really want to see and play this game.

[@velocityglass]

i thought this was a channel with like 100k subs not 1.5k you deserve way more attention

Bro we need more SCP games

No, we don't need.

@@Kell-b9n ya we do

[@Kell-b9n]

​@@TobiMorrisonStudiosI rather high quality SCP games with depth and some phylosophy in them, as original SCP CB, than something that only cashing on it cuz It's trend rn.

[@TobiMorrisonStudios]

I’m not saying for people to pump out games im saying we want more high quality games

[@christianroos6260]

this is going to be an interesting ride. 6 games?! now that's a challenge but if your 2 weeks in and its looking like this i have high hopes. can't wait to see how this adventure will go :) (btw i liked)

[@LenexTL]

So far development has been really quick and smooth, so hopefully that continues. Plus if this game makes good money, I can hire people to help speed things up A LOT, but yes I will agree it is a challenge for sure

[@ilovemywhiteshoes]

give me a manager card. you can trust me to manage an scp facility.

[@Genesis29941]

I'm a little worried about this game since you never really mentioned the most important feature of 4666, that being a family, as the biggest part of 4666 is the fact that if your lucky it'll just leave a toy made of flesh, and if your unlucky it'll break into your house and torture each family to death in front of the others before kidnapping the child. Honestly my best suggestion is read the article 10x over and come with a conclusion to if you think your game will represent well, after all that's what SCP games should do at least. either way I'm optimistic that this game will do well in development.

[@LenexTL]

@@Genesis29941 no need to worry, the game stays true to the Weissnacht event, and 90% of the game takes place during it, but I didn’t talk about it cause I wanted to avoid story spoilers for specific things

[@Genesis29941]

Ok ima trust you

[@nexus_tn]

@Genesis29941 hmm that seems a lot like the 2016 krampus movie..

[@probablyari]

There are very well made SCP games out there, as you mentioned, SCP:5K which is based around the lore of well SCP 5000. Are you going to try rivaling them?

[@LenexTL]

Not sure if rival is the correct word here, as SCP: V/H/S and SCP:5K are different genres. Yes, both are SCP games, but SCP:5K is a multiplayer tactical FPS shooter, whilst SCP: V/H/S is a single-player psychological horror game (with elements of survival horror), so you can't really compare them tbh. Plus I work solo and the SCP: 5K team is quite big (not sure how big but its impressive with their equipment and etc). I respect those games too much to try and rival them, if that makes sense. Other SCP games like SCP:5K, SCP: Unity, SCP: CB, and SCP: SL have definitely inspired me and the work I want to do, but I am not actively trying to make a a game that's "better" then those games, but hopefully a game that people will talk about as a good SCP game alongside those other titles.

[@probablyari]

@@LenexTL Thank you for the comprehensive response. I strongly agree with you. I am also planning on developing, or at least work on it as a hobby.

[@LenexTL]

@@darcycolcott-i3h I talked about in a draft version of the script, but basically I put that idea on the back burner cause of its size, and also as another commenter said, SCP games inside the facility are WAY to common nowadays, and I wanted to do something new, but it’s not cancelled

@@kavinsai1734 the 1st part is purely psychological horror with survival horror elements but sadly no shooting, but I want to explore a lot of genres in this series, one being FPS Tactical shooter similar to SCP:5K And for the console part I’m not sure, as I’m not sure how to do that exactly to be honest, and also idk how I could publish to consoles like the switch, xbox, and ps4-5

[@Qnpol308]

just say how much how much for this game?

@@Qnpol308 not sure yet about how much it’ll cost, cause that comes down to a few things: 1: how long the game is 2: how long it took me to make 3: how much money I spent on it 4: overall quality of the game

I hate 4666… he’s just the worst… not in writing, but how he looks and what he does

[@LenexTL]

@@Megalon-qc8pf fair enough, but out of curiosity, what SCP (preferably not mainstream) do you think can provide good gameplay for a horror game?

[@luipirronecook8474]

@@LenexTL first thing that comes to mind is SCP-4975 "Times up" although it might be a bit similar to the scp you are currently working on but I think this could be a horrifying scp if you give it the chance to shine (Especially with the ticking sound it makes which i think could be implemented into the gameplay loop for a more unique experience) I would recomend you to watch a video about it if you haven't already
