“I got too eager to show the things that were finished, that I neglected to pay attention to the things that weren’t.”
Despite giving a release date of February 19, Five Nights at Freddy’s creator Scott Cawthon released his newest game, RPG FNaF World, yesterday. While releasing games ahead of schedule is nothing new for Cawthon, he has now penned an apology on the game’s Steam page, stating that this is the first time he feels that he’s released a game before it was ready.
“You know, I’ve been accused of rushing my games ever since FNaF 1, but I’ve never felt that I’d released a game too early… until now,” Cawthon wrote. “There are a lot of features that this game should have had before release, features that I was told about, but ignored and didn’t implement. Features such as being able to see what abilities do during battle, or being able to see a stats page for your characters. These are features that any good RPG would have.”
“I got too eager to show the things that were finished, that I neglected to pay attention to the things that weren’t.”
Cawthon has promised to fix the issues with the game, adding updates with the above features “in the coming weeks.”
“So I say this to a community that I’ve enjoyed and respected for over a year and a half now- I’m sorry,” Cawthon continued. “I will continue to add features to the game and make it right.”
