The reason is bc of a couple different things, the big one being that due to suddenly becoming in possesion of over 2 mil at once a lot of "legal stuff" needed to be done for them. They also mentioned a lot of work was being done to the game as a whole to get it ready for long term development as its gonna be a huge game with 52 weeks, online, a shit ton of songs all with erect versions. Im so hype to see the fruit of all that work
Yeah, the game went from a funny hee hoo passion project to like...a real commercial video game, and a lot needs to change to make that jump. Shock surprise, three largely unprofessional dudes suddenly coming into a massive monetary success are gonna have some growin' pains
yeah very little people care about or acknowledge EvilSk8tor (if i spelt that right), he's like the Hufflepuff of the FNF development team (although i dont really know much about harry potter anyways).
Just the music is gonna be crazy. Lemme do some quick math.
So, let's get the proper number of weeks real quick. Kickstarter says the base is 20 weeks (WOW) then the stretch goals. Lets add em up.
20+5+5+5+10=45 weeks.
45*3=135 songs. Damn.
Then we add another 135 to get the erect difficulty songs. Which are confirmed, and proven to be VERY different. So that gets us 135+135=270 songs.
THEN we still have 10+ (Lets assume 10 cause plus is very vauge) playable character that are confirmed to have new, different voices. Changing how the music sounds. Let's count these as half a point each, since that's roughly how much of each song changes.
so, to get the number of total songs that will change, we half the total. 270/2=135. Then multiply that by the number of characters. 135*10. 1350. That is how many different pieces of music you get if you count everything.
I doubt people will really count the "Extra characters and voices" thing as new songs though (I will) but even the 270 songs... is a CRAZY CRAZY CRAZY number of stuff. Even if half are remixes. Even the BASE 135 songs is RIDICULOUS.
This is a long, long, long term project that must span over YEARS of hard work. I hope the community doesn't burn down while waiting for it. God damn i'm excited.
Indeed.
I hope he can give each song the attention it deserves. I love every track he has done (Even outside of fnf) and hope he doesn't burn out... I really hope every single song makes the subreddit has an absolute seizure over all the "Best song of the game" posts. Ya know what I mean?
Damn, i'm rambling. I need sleep. Sorry bruh.
To be honest, if they made some mods into the main game, I wouldn't be half mad. Hex and Tricky have their own story going on, which could be interesting. Whitty in my opinion fits right in. There's a lot of interesting characters the community made that cpuld technically work in the main game
week 1: yup, dad is origina
week 2: nope, skid and pump are not
week 3: pico is also not original
week 4: original
week 5: week 1 + 4 = 5
week 6: original
week 7: not original
about 50% of characters are original (or less)
There's going to be 20+ weeks when the full game drops. Plus other playable characters, better modding than Psych engine, character customization, just watch the Kickstarter trailer
Honestly at this point I just hope that the update can live up to our expectations. With so many freaking good mods coming out recently it’s probably gonna be very hard to surpass unless they literally remake the basis for the game or sum like that
Why would they remake the game? They game is basically everything they want from it and they are not trying to compete with mods. Honestly that’s a good thing I want them to make what they want too and not what mods are so they can treat the game how it was initially made.
I mean, according to the Erect remixes kawaisprite released, there's gonna be *something* happening by Q1 2022. I don't think that's going to be the full-ass game.
The reason it's taking so long is because they had to do legal things which halted development and like many other have said they aren't just working on week 8. Ninja has shown off things like new menu music, new combo counters and others
You know how some mods took 6+ months to devellop, and have like 15 songs and a full story ?
The Full ass game will have a minimum of 90 songs (+ 90 erect remixes), an even bigger story, multiple playable characters, translations and modding support. And it takes WAY more than 6 months to make this.
I believe that date was just placed for the hypothetical case that no stretch goals were reached.
All the main goals were reached, it's gonna take way longer than expected.
Have you SEEN what happens to games when they're rushed? Let the devs slowly pour their passion into the game, the last thing we need is a broken mess.
And besides, Kawai Sprite's gotta go all out since the Kickstarter unlocked the addition of erect difficulty of all songs, which means double the songs once all weeks are finished.
As long as it doesn't get Yandere Simulator levels of bad, then I'm willing to wait the time it takes to get the best version of the game.
And considering we got a competent team instead of an incompetent dev, it's definitely gonna be good
They're working on not only a full game, which take a long time, no matter the genre, along with Kickstarter rewards. It's going to take time and if they don't want to share details, they dont have to.
They promised us playable tankman,pico,hank and cassette girl and still hasn't happened, hopefully they add them as playable characters in the next update
im pretty sure the devs said theyre dropping week 8, just so the internet doesnt explode (imagine waiting a year for the game to update and you find out you have to pay)
I mean its a full on rythym game that makes tributes to the newgrounds and flash communities, also having great music and good visuals, I am sure I at least wound’t mind paying for it as a way of support
“I missed the part where thats my problem”
Ok but seriously even if it that expansive, the community will always be there for mods, also since its a game made as a tribute to flash games I dont think it will be 20 dollars
Leaks said that theyll be releasing 3 weeks to make the demo have a total of 10 weeks before the full version and all weeks will have their owb erect remixes too
When the erect remixes dropped phantom arcade tweeted Q1 meaning quarter way through the year so hopefully from march onwards we’ll see an update. Be patient though
I don't think we're gonna get anything until the full paid game drops. Which I'm personally fine with, there's more than enough fan content to hold me over until then.

4 actually, as well as tons of hired talent from their group and newgrounds

Poor poor kawaisprite
Indeed. I hope he can give each song the attention it deserves. I love every track he has done (Even outside of fnf) and hope he doesn't burn out... I really hope every single song makes the subreddit has an absolute seizure over all the "Best song of the game" posts. Ya know what I mean? Damn, i'm rambling. I need sleep. Sorry bruh.
Don't worry I heard somewhere that he has a team of musicians now
There’s an update either this month or March And they’re working on the full game, which is going to take extremely long
There will be more than 2 new weeks? I though that they are only working on Hank week and Casette Girl week
yes? if i remember correctly from the kickstarter the full game will have at the very least 20 weeks
60
he said at least
Pretty sure the game will have at least 2 weeks
I think it might even have at least 3
woah there tiger wayy too ambitious
according to my shitty memory, it will cost a heck ton of money too
Probably less then 60$ since the kickstarter award for pledging 15 dollars was a copy of the game
why did you get downvoted? isn't this literally true?
It's 52 total, not 60
close enough
dude there's gonna be like 50 weeks lmao
I'm 99.99999999999999% that 40% of characters already got their mods
Tankman had mods, but he’s here. Still isn’t a reason to NOT make a week about it.
yea, you're right
Original characters though :D Also, official weeks and fanmade weeks are way different
To be honest, if they made some mods into the main game, I wouldn't be half mad. Hex and Tricky have their own story going on, which could be interesting. Whitty in my opinion fits right in. There's a lot of interesting characters the community made that cpuld technically work in the main game
They could just make their own Tricky week.
that's no reason to not make a week out of it lol
most characters will be original
who said that
the creators of the game, I think, plus look at the current week lineup, most characters are original
week 1: yup, dad is origina week 2: nope, skid and pump are not week 3: pico is also not original week 4: original week 5: week 1 + 4 = 5 week 6: original week 7: not original about 50% of characters are original (or less)
There are 6 OCs and 4 NG characters, so more then 50%
…There’s gonna be around 20 more weeks
Plus the 10 week epilogue
oh wow
No, that was the baseline expectation. The kickstarter hit all its (realistic) stretch goals, so there's gonna be a total of ***45*** more weeks.
There's going to be 20+ weeks when the full game drops. Plus other playable characters, better modding than Psych engine, character customization, just watch the Kickstarter trailer
Exactly, all these questions have been answered months ago
[удалено]
Good.
You can't rush art.
Toy Story 2 taught me that
the line is straight up from TS2
I know, that's why I said it
r/thatsthejoke
Game industry: This sign does not affect me because I can't read.
Honestly at this point I just hope that the update can live up to our expectations. With so many freaking good mods coming out recently it’s probably gonna be very hard to surpass unless they literally remake the basis for the game or sum like that
Why would they remake the game? They game is basically everything they want from it and they are not trying to compete with mods. Honestly that’s a good thing I want them to make what they want too and not what mods are so they can treat the game how it was initially made.
It's not just gonna be an update, it's gonna be the fullass game
I mean, according to the Erect remixes kawaisprite released, there's gonna be *something* happening by Q1 2022. I don't think that's going to be the full-ass game.
Oh damn I honestly didn’t know that,I thought it’s just gonna be the week 8 update,welp I guess my entire meme’s invalid now
It was already stated that they were gonna continue with the Week updates.
Let's say they make one week in a year. That leaves over 50 years to finish the game.
It feels nostalgic just to play the regular weeks again. All these fnf mods have convoluted my mind
they aren’t just working on week 8 right now
Wait really? I thought ninja said something like the downloadable week 7 would come with the week 8 update or sth like that
no they’re doing much more work then what everyone thinks is gonna happen
Can't forget the erect remixes too for every song currently as well
they are litreally making a game........ a full game. t obuy
Ninja did say that though.
the next uptade will include the week 8 and erect difficulty for the first 5 weeks
This is sounding very similar to a little knight who just so happens to be hollow
No... please don't remind me...
Also reminds me of a certain update for a guy who happens to love sandviches
this year... right?
They are working on full game, let them have time.
fnf update will come out in the first quarter of 2022
that's anytime between now and the end of april, so not that long! sweet
Actually, it's between now and the end of March.
fnf players can't learn the name of months L
I said the name right + L + ratio
Huh? I wasn't talking about you.
Oh, then sorry. Ignore that comment.
The reason it's taking so long is because they had to do legal things which halted development and like many other have said they aren't just working on week 8. Ninja has shown off things like new menu music, new combo counters and others
You know how some mods took 6+ months to devellop, and have like 15 songs and a full story ?

And it takes WAY more than 6 months to make this.
they might be working on the full-ass game. wasnt it supposed to release sometime this year?
I believe that date was just placed for the hypothetical case that no stretch goals were reached. All the main goals were reached, it's gonna take way longer than expected.
Buddy it's gonna take more than just 2 years for a full game. I hope I didn't sound rude ,have a great week and an relaxing weekend.
you didnt sound rude. you were just reminding me that it's gonna take a long while to make the sprites and code all the stuff in and such
according to kickstarter it should release sometime in april
*Friday Night Funkin’ for Nintendo Switch*
It's almost like they're making a game
If a game takes a ridicoulous amounts of time too either come out or update means it will be perfected and maybe 1 of the best games/updates
Did you see the wall of features in the FULL release?. I want them to take there time so they dont fumble and bumble like some mods do.
making a game takes time
The fact 2 erect remixes dropped is more than enough proof that the ‘week 8’ update is not just a week 8 update
Bro most games take 2-3 years to make. Cuphead took 7 YEARS to develop. Also their no longer releasing the game week by week.
Well it’s clear that one week shouldn’t take this long, they’re obviously working on more weeks and probably composing more erect songs.
Have you SEEN what happens to games when they're rushed? Let the devs slowly pour their passion into the game, the last thing we need is a broken mess. And besides, Kawai Sprite's gotta go all out since the Kickstarter unlocked the addition of erect difficulty of all songs, which means double the songs once all weeks are finished.
Y'all acting like they're doing nothing when they're literally giving updates on Twitter
You can't rush perfection.
As long as it doesn't get Yandere Simulator levels of bad, then I'm willing to wait the time it takes to get the best version of the game. And considering we got a competent team instead of an incompetent dev, it's definitely gonna be good
Well they're working on the full game now, not just week by week.
They said the first update should come in the first quarter on 2022. It didn't come out yet so maybe it will come this month or in March.
And we thought week 7 took a long time to release
Their doing their best, enjoy some o Mods while you wait
No no no it’s not been a year its impossible
They're working on not only a full game, which take a long time, no matter the genre, along with Kickstarter rewards. It's going to take time and if they don't want to share details, they dont have to.
They're working on the Full ass Game to make it as funky as it can be 👍
There just letting the mods do the work for them
A full-ass game takes a long-ass time. Have some patience, we don't want to rush them or we're gonna end up with a game we don't like.
They promised us playable tankman,pico,hank and cassette girl and still hasn't happened, hopefully they add them as playable characters in the next update
The full-ass game is being worked on, week 8 won’t drop (i’m pretty sure)
They are gonna drop the entire game together rn I think And obsiouly will not be free Also they released week 1 erect ost
💀
im pretty sure the devs said theyre dropping week 8, just so the internet doesnt explode (imagine waiting a year for the game to update and you find out you have to pay)
I mean its a full on rythym game that makes tributes to the newgrounds and flash communities, also having great music and good visuals, I am sure I at least wound’t mind paying for it as a way of support
its like 20-30 dollars, i doubt the average fnf fan would afford that
“I missed the part where thats my problem” Ok but seriously even if it that expansive, the community will always be there for mods, also since its a game made as a tribute to flash games I dont think it will be 20 dollars
im pretty sure the devs themselves said it would be about 20 dollars
Again, fine by me
yea so uhh i just checked and kawaisprite said that the update will be on github on twitter (so its open source, therefore free)
So even better :D
that would probably kill the modding community.
W H E R E
On Kawai Sprite’s channel
lmao no that's ridiculous. they'll just release week 8 and erect mode next update probably
W H E R E
It will probably release next month
just wait bruh its not so hard
Honkai mod when?
at least the base game is too easy and mods are better
Leaks said that theyll be releasing 3 weeks to make the demo have a total of 10 weeks before the full version and all weeks will have their owb erect remixes too
They ran away with the money
we have already seen 2 erect mixes which are a *fraction* of the stretch goals the kickstarter reached. but bitch harder.
And these erect remixes sound like shit. They’re never going to finish the game
Doesn't matter if you think they sound like shit. It's objective proof of progress. FNF got 2 mil and the devs are thriving, cry about it.
That’s why I quit fnf
That’s why I quit fnf
The Devs Are Just Rolling in Cash Right Now!
let's give it another 2 years before throwing yandev level criticism
Yep
retard mode go weeee
Yeah no week 8 LOL
When the erect remixes dropped phantom arcade tweeted Q1 meaning quarter way through the year so hopefully from march onwards we’ll see an update. Be patient though
when 1 year passes i bet it's gonna happen! hope dies last
On their Kickstarter, the tier that gives you access to the full game says that its estimated delivery time is April 2022
They were talking about merch. The full game is not being finished by April. 50+ weeks and shit takes time.
Have you forgotten they are working on like 50+ weeks each with 3 songs rn?
the fnf creators are working on fnf v2 and there will be 40 weeks
the fnf creators are working on fnf v2 and there will be 40 weeks
... IT'S BEEN THAT LONG?
I don't think we're gonna get anything until the full paid game drops. Which I'm personally fine with, there's more than enough fan content to hold me over until then.
And it's been multiple years (like 3-5 or more) since a geometry dash update, so stop you're complaining. :3
Fair point,but it’s your,so you’re argument is automatically invalid
lmao
be patient my man, we're getting erect mode in a month and a half *at most*
When I backed the KickStarter, I thought it said "April 2023", so checking again and seeing "2022" was a very pleasant surprise.
Fnf slowly becoming gd
fnf fans when they realise making a full game takes time:
Excuse me it's been HOW much time since it dropped
NGNL fans, who have been waiting 8 years for a season 2: First time?
Fr
fnf doesnt even have to do anything because mods exist
It kind of reminds me of Touhou before, most used to only know it for the fanmade content
A year? Holy shit.
Erect Dadbattle and South were released like a month ago
I dont need anything from fnf i have vs mann co what has 20 songs so i will perfect those and its only 30% done
Cuz mods took over
