Freddy in Space 2 is a side-scrolling shoot-'em-up game of the Five Nights at Freddy's franchise. The game is created by Scott Cawthon, with character sprites made by Claudia Schröder. The game is set as a sequel to FNaF World's minigame FNaF 57: Freddy in Space. Released on December 3, 2019, it is created to bring awareness to the St. Jude Children's Research Hospital fundraiser.
Summary[]
Freddy is back... in space! Every good horror series inevitably goes to space, but how many of them go back for a second round?
When Freddy leaves the lunar base on a deep-space mission, the central computer system is hijacked by the newly installed high-tech computer assistant: L.ogarithmic O.nline LAN-compatible Z.ero-error H.ydraulic A.uxiliary X.ylophone(?), otherwise known as L.O.L.Z.H.A.X.
LolzHax has brainwashed the other resident space warriors, Bonnie, Chica, Foxy, and that weird gangly space puppet, and has locked Freddy's son outside the station with limited air remaining. Can Freddy rescue his friends, defeat LolzHax, and save his son in time?
Development[]
The game's production begins on August 8, 2019 for the franchise's 5th anniversary, as revealed by the 58 image from the abandoned FNaF World website. Brightening up the 58 image will reveal several negative quotes, one of them referencing the FNaF Reddit:
“probably the worst idea he's ever had... - fnaf fan'''” |
“It's like he doesn't even care anymore. - rando person'''” |
“Five years for this? - concerned citizen'''” |
“Are we a joke to you? - fnaf fan'''” |
“stopped caring after dream theory... - reddit user'''” |
On September 29, 2019, fnafworld.com was updated with a new teaser, this time with a space scene featuring gratuitous artwork of a muscular Freddy Fazbear with a ray gun and Roxanne Wolf in a skin-tight bodysuit. This seems to be playing off of FNaF 57: Freddy in Space.
The next day, the teaser was taken down and a message posted to reddit stated:[1]
“Hey everyone, I went ahead and removed that fnafworld teaser, and I want to apologize to everyone. My goal really was to just create a fun and crazy teaser for like an April Fool's game or something, but I think maybe it came out a little too over the top. Maybe I'll re-upload after a few more edits. Goodnight to all! |
The gameplay trailer is uploaded on November 30, 2019, and officially released on December 3rd.
Gameplay[]
In this game the player has to shoot enemies in order to save all the animatronics and Freddy's son. As the player defeats more enemies the chosen character levels up, obtaining more health, more stamina and a more powerful weapon. In every level there are 3 bosses to defeat, and only the third gives back one of the missing animatronics. Every animatronics has a different ability that is exclusive to them.
Every level is thematically centered around an animatronic, and so are the bosses and enemies. The unlocked trophies give the player a little boost.
Trivia[]
- This game is dedicated to the community fan Skylar Ginn, who passed away on October 26, 2019 from cancer.
- Roxanne Wolf from the game, Five Nights at Freddy's: Security Breach, made her first appearance in this game's reveal teaser image and one of the intermission menus with Freddy Fazbear, although she did not appear anywhere ingame.
- The reveal teaser has the "NEXT YEAR..." text, implying that the game is originally planned to release on 2020.
- There are also five 3's faintly hidden among the artwork, giving speculations at an Update 3 for FNaF World or a release date. This was later deconfirmed.
- The game is inspired by Doomsday Picnic RPG, one of Scott's older games. Interestingly enough, numerous early character and environment sprites in a reminiscent to Doomsday Picnic RPG, made by Scott himself, are found in the game files.
- This is the first game in the Five Nights at Freddy's franchise to be entirely in 2D and not to feature any 3D assets from Scott Cawthon.
