Here's Levi in Bolesław
Playable characters get new brief flashback scenes that flesh out characterization and in some cases reframe the narrative a bit. Nothing too major, but some small details that most people didn't pick on in Termina will be brought up.
Le'garde had a lot of years of just waiting for the right time. During this time he experimented with different hair styles. At one point he tried going back to shorter hair, reminding him of his younger days when he was still just building a name for himself.
The coming overhaul of Termina won't expand the core story. The base game told the story it needed to tell, but lore is going to get Kingdom Hearts levels of convoluted I feel. Left field revelations and all that. Sorry.
So just letting everyone know, I've heard the criticism that Termina is too easy. Working on fixing this. I don't like nerfing things too much or just making numbers bigger to make stuff harder. Trying to come up with more creative bs to pull the rug under everyone's feet.
(sorry for no release date for the update yet, getting there) along with new content, some previous material is also getting revamped and overhauled. Some enemies got new visuals, new moves, etc.
Johann Baihan enters the fight. Don't worry he's a nobody. Was wondering if I'm revealing too many things from the upcoming update, but no worries, I've kept the cool stuff secret, only lame stuff like this gets out here.
This one's pretty accurate. The update has bloated into a proper expansion at this point. Can't really call it a small content update any longer. (still going to be a free update tho so no worries)
Fear & Hunger in 2024: What's to Come?
I've created a bunch of graphics for Termina update that only get used in blink & you miss it scenes. Those assets are begging to be used in a more fleshed out way. I'm considering making a quicker asset flip F&H game later on that would utilize that stuff, but we'll see..
@bunny_babbits
I was just brainstorming characters at the time and there wasn't much written for him. The smile definitely hid something beneath it. The first proto-Daan is actually this art below. The pink version got combined with this "Jack the Ripper" version to form the final Daan.
also these scenes were a good excuse to bring some world building in there too. You get to see what some places look like, even if only small glimpses of them. But better than nothing I guess.
The Most UNIQUE RPG of the Year! | Fear & Hunger DEMO v3 - [Part 1]
I don't think F&H1 would have ever been made to completion without this video. I would've dropped the game after its demo stage most likely and moved on to do something else with my life.
Never turn out on a chance to disappoint people with my highly acquired pedestrian taste. I would've added Fifa in there but I can't tell those games apart from each other lol. My top 25 favourite games.
SH2 Remake should've gone the opposite direction with its combat imo. If you're going to go RE direction, you're going to be compared. I have a feeling SH2 Remake will end up being a poor man's RE2, not as intense and satisfying, but just action-y enough that it loses the horror.
Balance tweaks, the biggest change goes to Black Smog. It'll work very differently in the coming update. Otherwise I tried to address most op strategies some way. No direct nerfs but leechmonger ring, glass shards, dot damage, hardened heart, meat grinder got some limitations.
The only character whose scene isn't really directly based on some small hints found in the original Termina is O'saa. He was lacking a bit in personal motivation, so his little flashback is the only notable change in the story.
@jimbebebe
Aaah nooo! Her outfit is based on Finnish homefront working uniform from WW2. Sweden wasn't in war during the time so dunno if they got anything similar, that's why Finnish outfit.
no, not unfinished. The location is there, you just don't get to go there. I mean look at all those towers in the distance. You don't get to go there either.
@chharmanii
dunno man, that screenshot looks a bit fake to me, but dunno, I tend to forget half the dialogue in the game, so maybe that line's really somewhere in there.
@Highway63343915
So to lay it down on paper:
- 3 new areas (kinda, one could be considered area expansion, dunno)
- New way to get to the city, new way to get idols, new way to *spoiler*
- Fishing mini-game
- New enemies (15 or something I lost the count)
- New difficulty option
- Random stuff
I think people read too much to my post. This picture is the amount of character development he gets lol. At least you get to see how he kills time while not tormenting other people.
@mauthe_doog
Would be nice. This should be a feature and it has crossed my mind too. Maybe I will make it happen later. Just need to draw some sprites for it etc. but it shouldn't be too big of a hassle...
Bad news for anyone waiting for the next Termina update. My laptop had a total melt down and I lost a couple hundred work hours in the process. I have to pick up pieces of my broken psyche, just get back to it and remake everything lost. But - It's going to take a while....
@moonlessaria
a small correction to this, order, chaotic, antagonistic and loving souls are assigned to solstice and equinox days. So only on one day a year.

@mutinir
Also one thing many miss about Cahara, he's Eastern Sanctuaries born, so any character related to him would have to be middle eastern in blood to some degree.
@JevWood
Pretty cool! Not the biggest fan of AI, but it does make pretty things. You nailed Cahara here. I think people rarely realize he's from around Eastern Sanctuaries. Can't blame people because in-game art he's as pale as everyone else. So that's on me really.
Louis, the voice behind Needles in F&H2: Termina makes games too! Check it out! These games ooze personality and got a feverish art style (in the best ways possible)
@happy_paintings
were now live baby Just released a free game it’s a fever dream on a hot summers day
Would love if you could take a peek at it when you have the time
@brianlucey2099
You're so crazy productive, so this definitely sounds like a good idea. I don't think you'd even need to change all that much to distance it from F&H. AI god definitely isn't F&H exclusive concept and Rusting is really interesting and original concept as is.
@TalesPe40124032
@sgmwlol
Currently the next F&H is looking to be very human-centric story. It does tie back to things set up in F&H1 and 2, but mostly just human meddling business. The story of F&H seems to be humans being too fucking stupid to learn. Much like irl, we got all the tools for peace but
@who1827483
have to disagree. I've been consistently impressed how the fan art of Samarie seems to stay on model even more than I do lol. With Enki this pic is more true, but then again, it's not like I'm consistent with his looks either. Also Samarie is pretty, what's up with MM comparison?
@katykat_98
I don't blame people. His complexion is light (tbh everyone is pretty pale in f&h art) but in the lore Eastern Sanctuaries used to be huge. Like it swallowed half of Eurasia at some point in time. So in my mind it makes sense for its citizens to be pretty diverse in their looks.
An unused original version. It has a different vibe compared to the final version. I always kinda preferred this version, but felt it was too big of a tonal whiplash in-game.

@DaffuniChan
great combo. I was just thinking about what kind of aesthetics the next F&H project will take and was kinda leaning towards similar vibes.
@Kamuu0428
what's up with proto-Daan/Daan-in-name-only/Naad/Leinad/The True Daan getting so much fan art lately? I've seen these things pop up without even looking for F&H :D
Everyone were super empathic to this wormy person, worried if it was cold. I didn't really see that coming, but makes sense looking at it now from different perspective :D
@FrizzyReloaded
would it lower fear tho if you entered a weird flesh tower every time you slept and was reminded how you haven't killed your friends yet, all the while a pantless jester mocks you no matter how hard you try to live up to his expectations?
@Confusion_est
He's inspired by this drawing in Grand Grimoire. It's just one portrayal of Lucifer/Devil. Similar depictions can be found from other occult books as well. "Perkele" is also associated to devil sometimes in Finnish language too. Per'kele is all that mixed with jester-like vibes.
RPG Maker horror is alive and well! This one includes music from
@Chilly_Tweets
too, definitely worth a look imo.

Fine. Cahara is Levi's dad. And Karin is Levi's mother. What's the fun in me just answering lore on twitter? Only the info found in the games is canon anyway. If it's not mentioned in the games, it didn't happen.
Sorry for the lack of updates lately🙆♂️I've been working on the game daily, but instead of drip feeding people with smaller updates, I rather focus on bigger chunks where new playthroughs feel a bit more fresh. A new update looms in the horizon!
Basically you summon black smog now and the smog independently blinds opponents on its own turns. If you abuse the smog too much, rely on it too much, it'll turn on you and starts attacking you too.
