"You hoped you'd never have to return to this place of sorrow, but after 20 years, something has called you back."
FNAF: BLOOD & GEARS, created by JDBRYANT, is a ground up reimagining of the original Five Nights at Freddy's game by Scott Cawthon.It aims to provide a refreshing and grounded interpretation of the original FNAF story while still keeping many of the key elements that make it FNAF. Fans can look forward to meeting a new cast of characters unique to Blood & Gears, who all have their own motives and complexity.
The animatronic and environment designs in BLOOD & GEARS take heavy inspiration from real-world establishments such as Chuck E. Cheese's and Showbiz Pizza.When creating the designs, there was a heavy emphasis on authenticity and groundedness. It was important for the animatronic performers to be cute and cuddly during the day and only appear creepy and unsettling under the right circumstances.
