When it comes to a character's perspective, nearly every FNAF fan creation will be from the perspective from a security guard, urban explorer, or runaway child. We always see his or her reaction on the first night, but I wondered what would it be like from an animatronic's perspective? What would a "first night" alive for them look and feel like?

Nine years ago, while I was in my first year of digital design at university, the cultphenomenon video game Five Nights at Freddy's was created.

I remember sitting and playing it with my peers in our class' game room. Lights completely off, the communal couch dragged unnecessarily close to the screen, and pillows at the ready to hide our faces at the jump scares.

It was new. It was different. It was terrifying. And riding off of each others' fears was the best way to be inducted into the world of FNAF.

I've always loved the dark and inherently spooky tones of the game. New sequels and iterations that have come out in the past few years have definitely leaned into a more cartoonlike and science fiction aesthetic.

Each to their own this style wasn't exactly my favourite direction for the franchise to have taken.

Certain fans were able to capture that uncanny horror that we see in the original. Battington and Phsinom's work on their respective FNAF tapes spring to mind.

Another is "Jr's", developed by Ramenov, which has in my opinion the best aesthetics to any fan game, assisted by Darroc's utterly terrifying vintage animatronic models.

You can only imagine how thrilled I was to be able to get my hands on these stylized models, recreated by the talented DJ_DiscoHead. Inspiration started to quickly swirl, and with that I decided to knock out a little project over the next few days.

Not sure where I'll go with this. Now I've spent the hard yards setting up the scene it's a pretty straight forward approach now to just animate the models and come up with some cool scenarios.

More to come, folks.
