The FNAF Fan Game “Based on Real Facts”

this FNAF fan game is based on true facts well at least that's what the trailer claims joy and me chapter 1 is a Five Nights at Freddy's fan game that was released May 6 2022. the game was developed by a single Indie developer who had only previously worked on a few projects when I found this game on game Joel I didn't think much of it until I actually checked out the game's trailer and read this right here based on real facts or in other words this FNAF fan game is based on a true story the description of the trailer also reads investigate in this story based on real facts of sleep paralysis and live the nightmare of the creator of the game this coupled with the already promising looking visuals that I saw in the trailer was enough to spark my curiosity enough to actually go download the game for myself so join me today as we look into joy and me chapter one The FNAF fan game based on real facts immediately when launching the game we are shown our very first cutscene the rendering of these cutscenes and the actual models in game look absolutely amazing this cutscene also features some voice acting and while it's a little hard to understand what the character is actually saying I'm gonna let it slide as the developer I'm pretty sure doesn't speak English as their first language and the fact that the game features both English and Spanish voice acting is a really nice addition the character who is actually talking in this cutscene is our protagonist or also the developer of the game and he talks about his parents passing away on his birthday which was over a week ago he also talks about the thing in front of us which he refers to as a doll he says he will never forget the day he got it and he also claims what hid inside was the Devil Himself after this our first Mini-Game of the game begins we are once again playing as our protagonist as we sleep away in our bed that is until [Music] we are suddenly awoken by a loud black orb our character gets out of bed and we are now free to explore we leave our room and enter our parents room only to find them on their bed covered in blood that is until the mini game cuts to Black and this happens foreign to the first night or level of the game there's not really five nights like any other FNAF fan game but I'm just gonna call them Knights for convenience so before we actually get into the night itself a few tips pop up on screen telling us how to survive the night they give you like two seconds to read these though so I had no idea what I was doing the first time I played they seriously should have added a start night button or something because I had to go back in my footage just to be able to read this stuff anyways in this game we are only going up against one animatronic or in this case it's actually a doll who goes by the name of joy joy will trigger sound every time he moves aiming your flashlight at Joy will scare him away however it won't work every single time if you take too long to flash Joy with your light next time he returns it will be much sooner making the game unfair Joy is also able to dodge you if he thinks you're going to shine the light at him and can go around the room to kill you you can survive again means Joy by keeping him out of the room and if Joy makes it into the room it becomes much more difficult to actually win the section yeah they somehow wanted you to read all of this before the night started anyways for the actual office setup it's interesting so remember how good the cutscenes looked in the beginning they were fully rendered with 3D models everything looked great well for some reason the actual gameplay consists of what I'm pretty sure is just pictures of the devs room I understand that the developer is the main character of this game and using these pictures was an easy shortcut however I feel like modeling these rooms would have just looked so much better as it's really hard to tell what you are even looking at most of the time the images used for the office are very zoomed in and it feels like the field of view is set at like 70 or something it's like insane anyways as for how you actually navigate the office there is not much to say you can move left by pressing a you can move right by pressing d and you can move forward by pressing W pressing W an additional time will also open the door in front of you and this lets you open the door to flash the light on Joy if he is outside of your room actually getting through this first night section wasn't too hard at all as it only lasted a few minutes you kind of just flash your light in whatever room you heard a sound cue come from for a few minutes and then it's over so after actually getting through that section the mini game Fades back in and we see our characters standing there crying the black orb suddenly appears once again at the end of the room and we now have control of our player once again as we try to escape the black orb that is hunting us down you leave your parents room and run around the house for a little bit before making it back to your room and hiding under the covers this starts the second section of gameplay and this one is identical to the first one with the only difference being that this one is much harder another difference in this night though is that our character actually brings up his phone and starts texting one of his friends for help my parents are dead there is something at home that is about to kill me this is not a joke please Juan come pick me up and call the police as soon as possible come prepared whatever it is that thing is dangerous please don't think this is a joke after sending this text message shortly after we receive a reply from our friend who just says it's a joke right and after checking that message we can actually move through that front door into a new section of the house we must continue surviving in this new part of the house while we continue texting our friend it's not come quickly our character tells his friend and after this our friend replies with I'll be there in four minutes and we are now forced to survive four more painfully long minutes surviving against Joy finally after this night concludes we are once again taking to the mini game our crying player makes his way over to his front door where he meets up with his friend and after his friend makes it to his house he actually walks a little bit deeper in only to discover a body laying in the middle of a house the screen then cuts to Black and then we see one last scene which is really weird it has Joy leaning over what looks to me like the FNAF table like where you interview the animatronics I'm not really sure what it means but yeah that's how it ends I was very curious to find out how a game with killer dolls could possibly be based on true events in the dev's life but after finding out it was a nightmare they experienced it all makes a lot more sense overall I didn't think the game was bad but I also didn't think it was too great gameplay wise there wasn't a lot of variation when it comes to the actual mechanics you are basically just flashing your light on Joy the entire game with no intervention from any other threats or anything like that and the mechanics also just don't feel very polished like for example the battery on the flashlight won't recharge unless you drain it fully meaning if your flashlight still had a little bit of battery left over it's better to just drain it in order for it to recharge than to try to save the little amount to flash Joy again I'm not sure if this was done intentionally but it does feel very weird when you are first getting the hang of the mechanics graphically the game is a mixed bag for me the cutscene at the start and also the actual model for Joy look fantastic the jump scare animations are also very smooth and actually look good however stuff like the real life pictures being used and also the lack of any sort of effects on the mini game sections just make the graphics overall feel like they could be a little bit better in terms of the story I'm actually not sure how I feel about the story honestly originally that was what pulled me into the game however after completing it I still feel like I need to see more more luckily joy and me chapter 2 is still being developed and is scheduled to release sometime in 2023 it's being developed in Unreal Engine 5 this time and the one trailer that has been released of it so far does look pretty promising so I will for sure be checking that out whenever it releases here's a short clip from that teaser so you guys can see what's coming up next three so I am really curious to hear what you guys think of this game so far did you like it did you not like it let me know Down Below in the comments with that being said thank you all so much for watching and I will see you all in the next one peace [Music]
