Baldi's Brand New Game Refreshed - Progress Update #1

Introduction

Hey, it's GrandGames, sorry for being inactive on itch.io for quite some time now, I've been pretty busy with personal issues and working on Baldi's Brand New Game Refreshed. Most of the issues have now been resolved, and I can continue regularly developing Baldi's Brand New Game Refreshed again and even announcing things more often, so stay tuned for that.

Basic Information and Features

Baldi's Brand New Game Refreshed, as many of you know, is a fresh new decompile that will allow me to start fresh. I have a list of new features (some of which didn't exist in previous titles of the series):

• Stunly
• Grappling Hooks
• Captions
• Improved YCTP
• Lip-Syncing in YCTP
• Improved Playtime
• YTPs (Johnny's Store hasn't been added yet)
• AND more small bug fixes, improvements, and features (features that I don't want to spoil/announce right now)

I've been really taking my time to develop this mod because I want it to have high-quality features, and I don't want it to have too many features.

New Character Idea

One idea I've had for a character for a good while now is "Coach Sprint", where you would have to run in front of him, or else he would blow a whistle, attract Baldi to your location, and even temporarily make Baldi faster. Coach Sprint will give you a few seconds to run in front of him before blowing his whistle so that it isn't unfair whenever you encounter him. Coach Sprint was originally a character I had in mind for Baldi's Brand New Game Remastered but ended up being replaced with Tripware (Stunly 2.0). I do currently plan to add Coach Sprint to Baldi's Brand New Game Refreshed, however.

News Regarding Tripware

Speaking of Tripware, the character was short-lived. Since information regarding Tripware wasn't exactly clear, I should probably explain it here. I didn't end up liking the design and mechanics behind this character, and honestly thought Tripware was Stunly 2.0. So, Tripware is not returning for Baldi's Brand New Game Refreshed.

Planned Content

I currently plan to add the following:

• Johnny's Store (2D)
• Coach Sprint
• An option to enable/disable the YCTP
• Some other features from Baldi's Basics Plus
• More features that I don't want to spoil/announce right now

So, When is Version 1.0 Releasing?

I currently don't know when I will release the mod, however, it will most likely be released in early 2024.

Conclusion

Sorry again for not being active on itch.io recently, and thank you so much for your patience and for reading this and staying up-to-date with the latest and greatest information regarding Baldi's Brand New Game Refreshed!
