Freakshow:Anniversary News

[h3]First[/h3]
At the beginning of this new development stage (for FA) I talked about chapter 1 and chapter 2. Then in the final game you only got “Story mode” basically I scraped chapter 2 (that would have been a recap of Freakshow 2... the original project on steam. Still playable on gamejolt) I discarded the project due to lack of resources for the art and wanted to only to do something for the anniversary of the first game. So the ending for chapter 2 was later reused for the after credits of FA. So basically chapter 2 won’t be coming out. I think Freakshow should be left where it is. I explored the different places I can take the story. But I tired myself from working on the game and anything related to freakshow. As much as I love the characters, I need to let go and work on other projects!

[h3]Second![/h3]
I’m currently working on a new project that is in the works. But I’m slowly working on my project whenever I get the chance between work and personal projects. It won’t be coming to stream. It will be uploaded to gamejolt and itch.io! So if you’re interested, give me a follow and you’ll see it whenever it’s close to completion! Also working on side project with friends and such.

Lastly[/h3]
Do you want to see the cancelled “Freakshow 3” game? It’s uploaded to my new gamejolt page that contains a bunch of canceled projects that I got! (Link here)

Anyway that was my quick update. Thought you guys should know. Sorry if there was any miscommunication. Thank you guys for the support!

Also I will keep updating the game if there’s any bugs that pop up! (Just keep me posted in the comments or anywhere!)

Thank you again,

-KevinTheWolfy!

Added a way to see the controls from the title screen (The puzzle piece)

Report any bugs and send feedback for small changes!

-KevinTheWolfy

Just a few bugs fixed! Small update!

-Fixed achievements
-Fixed some meta data (Nothing important)
-Removed music option. (Always on)
Creates a weird bug that didn't make sounds play. The only way I found to fix it at the moment was to keep the music always on. (Temporary fix)

Report any bugs!

Thank you for playing the game!

Okay another update! I just took a couple of weeks off to chill and take a break from game development.


#1: Chapter 1 & Chapter 2



Chapter 1: It has been completely finished! (Needs bug testing and some polish!)



Chapter 2: no work yet. A couple pieces of art by me and a few simple code has been done. Nothing crazy but still figuring what I want to do exactly!



#2: Achievements

They have been updated in the game. Not tested.
Also they are not all in the game yet because chap.2 isn’t done! But that’s my next step!
The only one that stayed is “Bork” and the rest are brand new!



#3: Voice acting

I have gotten all the voice lines. They all have been edited. Now it’s time to implement them! Can’t wait to show you!
Really love the voice for the ringleader!




This was just a small update to say that I’m still working and alive!

Thank you for supporting the project!

-Kev

P.s: Bork(?)

Hey guys! I want to start making devlogs to talk about updates and features about the game!

#1: The soundtrack! (+new name!)

Yes the official sound track is available to download on steam!
It will be available to everyone to download (for free!)
https://store.steampowered.com/app/898420/Freakshow_soundtrack/


Also a few of you might have noticed the description a bit! ;)

The name will be changed to “Freakshow:Anniversary”!
I’ll prop explain the name in a future devlog! But for now. That’s all you get!



#2: Circus games

The circus games (maze, hammer game, cup game, etc..) they will not be in the final product! The only one making a return is “The duck game” you’ll need to buy it at the prize shop! But you’ll get tokens for playing!



I will be replacing the circus games with 8 new mini games! (You’ll need to buy in the shop for 1500 tokens)

Won’t talk about them much yet, but I can say that there 100% done!


#3: Story mode!

Story mode will be spilt into “chapters” one and two!

Chapter one: This will be the story of “origins” fully recoded from the ground up! I started coding this section... not done yet! But so far there’s an inventory system, heart beat mechanic, puzzles and more! Can’t wait to show you!



Chapter two: This will be the story of “freakshow 2” reimagined, a new story (reworked!) and hopefully interesting mechanics... haven’t worked on this chapter yet!

#4: voice acting!

Currently I have filled all the roles with new voice actors! I wanted the voices to be the same throughout the entire game!
Currently waiting for all the clips to come in and start working on that!


#5: Early access!

Cause this game is early access, I’ll release a version when the trailer comes out! (Roughly a month before the final release). This should give me enough time to iron out any bugs!

Also a week or two before the trailer, I’ll make another update because I’ll be removing the original version “freakshow 2” and putting it on a different site! (Gamejolt)

The day the trailer comes out, I’ll also update all the art work+description!


#6: Achievements!

I know some of you got 100% for my game. Sadly the new version will have a new set of achievements. So the old ones will be deleted and replaced with new ones! (+new art!) but one good thing is that not all will be deleted! Some will stay. Like example: “borf” will stay with some new art! Anyway I’ll keep you posted on the ones that will stay and the ones that will go!


Okay so that was my major updates that I wanted to talk about!

What do you guys think?

Any suggestions for the game?

Tell me in the comments below!


Thank you for reading and supporting the game! I’ll make devlogs whenever I get the chance!
