F.A.Q. - Five Nights at Betty's and FNAB2
9 years ago
General
I get a lot of similar questions about the games, release dates, what will be accessible when and for who.
This journal will answer most of these questions so I have an easy way to respond. If you have any new questions that are not answered here, please feel free to ask.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Where can I see the real life Betty Fursuit videos and photos?
My wife
linapilchard who is the voice and fursuit model for Betty posts regularly to her FA page and her sexy fursuiting Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/linapilchard
- Where can I play new FNAB2 Episodes?
While the full FNAB2: Episode 1 is posted publicly as a demo, Episodes 2 and beyond and all re-skins and bonus content will be released exclusively on my Patreon:
https://www.patreon.com/foxmcfly
Completed episodes will be remain exclusive for at least 3 months on Patreon before being posted anywhere else. Keep in mind, Patreon support is what pays the bills and allows me to make these games.
- I donated to FNAB2 in the 2015 campaign. Do I get access?
If you supported the FNAB2 fundraiser from early 2015, you will gain access to each finished episode via email.
They will be sent to the addresses attached to the Paypal account you used to donate.
However, you will not have access to the WIP or alternate versions of the episodes made exclusively for Patreon.
If you donated to the second game and have not been contacted about access, please go through your paypal records and find the transaction record (should have been between January 1st and March of 2015) and send me a note with the date you donated. I'll confirm it and give you access.
If you donated to the first game, all levels and main content (excluding special re-skins and bonus extra content) will be posted publicly for everyone to have early access. It is on hold at the moment while the 2nd game is in production and will be finished after that (odd I know, but they will all merge as one story that way much better).
If you have not donated at all yet, the only option to gain early access to FNAB2 content is to be a $5 Patreon patron or higher to gain access to whatever material is available that month.
- Where can I play the original FNAB nights?
Play Nights 1-3 here: http://www.furaffinity.net/gallery/.....ed-Game-Nights
Additional previews and content here: http://www.furaffinity.net/gallery/.....-Extra-Content
- When will the next Night of the original FNAB be released?
The original FNAB is on hold until FNAB2 is complete. Nights 1 and 2 are fully complete, Night 3 is complete except for sound, and Night 4 has a short preview. FNAB2 is a prequel so it won't spoil continuity. This was voted on and approved by supporters.
- When will the next Episode of the FNAB2 be released?
I aim to have a partial update for each episode every month, if not a fully completed episode.
Each Episode of FNAB2 takes a lot of work, more than the original FNAB Nights did. I estimate they will take anywhere from 2 to 8 weeks each to complete. Episode 1 will have taken about 4 weeks or so to complete, but some episodes won't be as complex and will recycle assets made for previous episodes. Some will take more time due to complex mini-game debugging or animation. Keep in mind that "X weeks" doesn't mean "X weeks from the date the last episode came out". I have other projects like pinups and other animation. So "X cumulative weeks of work" is closer to being accurate.
- Who will be the characters? Will there be male or herm characters?
There will be 2 male character, and at least one female who is more than just female.
The following is the roster for the game. The order may not stay the same and may be altered at any time.

Ep8 -

- I want spoilers
Sorry, no spoilers. The FNAB games already have very little story, and spoiling what little there is might ruin it for the other players.
There will be clues and special bonus material hidden in encrypted easter eggs throughout linapilchard 's Betty Fursuit photo shoots.
Feel free to ask new questions and I'll answer them the best I can.

ActionScript 2
I have one more:
Will any herms/futa/dgirls make it into FNAB or 2?
1. Have an idea of what the work is (from the client)
2. Find a really sexy pose I like, usually from a porn photo to use as a pose reference.
Sometimes I draw my own gesture from scratch if I can't find what I want, but that kills time - which may make the price higher or I'd be at a loss.
3. Taking the gesture drawing or photo, I work over the top of that to ink in the exaggerated proportions. In the end, I really only keep the bone structure vectors and some of the relative proportions of that. Every line, form, and curve is adjusted to my liking, never just simply traced over. Wider thighs, simplified hands, curvier calves and thinner ankles, hourglass waist, Big floppy realistic boobs, etc. Taking an already appealing figure and making into a perfect fantasy body.
4. Make the head from reference. Adding my own style where I can.
5. Add any wardrobe over the top of the figure.
6. Color it (I use Flash so I can blot in color with a single click and not have any issues).
7. Shade it and add lighting effects in Photoshop in needed. Also drop in a background and my logo.
8. Post it to FA or wherever it needs to be posted with proper tags and credits.
FNAB is a MUCH bigger process, especially FNAB2. Not always in this order:
1. Write a concept for the overarching story and perfect it. Make sure it's both fun and sexy, and fits with the original plot concept without being too much like other concepts.
2. Book each episode either with a commissioned character or with a character of my own. Then write a scenario unique for that character that is different enough from all the other scenarios, again sexy and fun. Work it into the main plot and find a good order for each one.
3. Find photos for environments that match the episode being worked on and modify them in Photoshop to make them unique and accurate to the story environment.
4. Create assets for that episode, like in-world objects.
5. Create coded mechanics (like the flash light effect) and debug them (possibly for re-use later).
5. Design the level so it plays out well, code each button with mouse-over text and other effects.
6. Create mini-game coding (like the Whack-a-Kraken) and play test it.
7. Create the puppet or puppets for the sexy character encounter.
8. Animate the sexy character encounter.
9. Add multiple secret endings and awards. Code them. Design logos.
10. Add dialogue that forwards the plot and makes the character sexy. Make sure the player's character's gender is ambiguous, leaving that up to the player.
11. Record (or outsource) the spoken dialogue.
12. Edit the lines.
13. Add the lines and debug the game.
14. Release the game and any teasers and promotions on Patreon and FA.
15. Get feedback and debug any reported problems.
16. Repeat the above steps until all the episodes/nights of the game are done.
I can wait for the game to be made at the least.
I just don't want to rush you since your health condition problem.
Well, take good care good friend!
Once you've got your situation handled, you'll finally be able to return to your goal and dreams
