- This video covers the AI and programming behind how everything works in Five Night’s At Candy’s Remastered, including universal mechanics, animatronic movement, and of course, Shadow Candy. I also discuss how to beat the hardest challenges in this game, and we even created our own, super difficult max mode using mods.

Ssoooooo... Is there a deadline for this project? Do I need to use a specific software (I use Clip Studio Paint EX)?
@@SNoodle Nope, we haven't even started making storyboards yet, there will be updates in the discord for when people can actually apply
@@TheBones5 Nice, nice. Also, can you make a video of FNAC 2? Nearly nobody knows how the AI of that gane works😕
your music sense is *chefs kiss*
And the 2010-18 internet era humor
Feels like home mate. Cheers !
ChickenNinja would have loved this video a good bit ago lmao
That's exactly what I was thinking
Go figure, I was literally just watching that video lmao
I was about to mention him lmao bro needed to reverse engineer his way through this game.
Psst. Hey @Chickeninja42, here it is.
All I could think about
Chickeninja crying in the corner rn
FRRR
who?
@@jokerofspades-xt3bs He made a video of Candy's without cameras I believe, and he had no idea how the AI worked so he struggled a lot
He's crying in the club.
So _that's_ why ChickenNinja's OP strat worked in his FNAC no cameras video...he legit just brute forced the door strat. That's crazy, lol. Thanks for the breakdown! This game's inner workings are super cool and you articulate them very well!!
fun fact : chickenninja did NOT invent the op strat
@@jonatanpl3899 Hence why I added "He brute forced the door strat". I didn't mean to imply that he invented it, just that he came to his own conclusion based on his own observations and testing due to not being able to find an extensive guide like this, resulting in him discovering an existing strategy. :P I was just calling it what he called it and, again, acknowledging that he came to the conclusion on his own. :)
@@citriosis oh my bad, thanks for claryfying
@@jonatanpl3899 Not a problem! Happy to help :)
5:55 Those shoes legit look so natural on him I didn't even notice he was wearing any until I paused the video to read the text.
BRUHHHH
rat is definitely a menace to society
Rat's Black Air Force Energy was so apparent he just naturally absorbed the Black Air Forces into his character design 💀
I didn’t even notice the shoes lol.
he can also be seen wearing them at 15:58
It's very funny to see how FNAC's AI system is infinitely more complex than FNAF, even though it dosen't feel like it in game.
More complex doesn't necessarily mean harder 🤔
Exactly, depends on what your focus is...@@scarlettefoxx5585
@@scarlettefoxx5585nobody said it does?
ikr, I love how it's more complex yet plays fairly simple. I have a feeling they made it more complex to make the existing FNAF 1 strats basically useless, forcing new strategies to be developed to deal with the much different AI system.
25:30 the Shadow Candy sending your power down by nearly half followed by the jumpscare actually scared the shit out of me.
Average FNAF Fan game difficulty
Hm, yes, this info is very well presented, I will now proceed to never use it in any capacity whatsoever. Marvelous.
That do be how it be doe
It's kinda funni to me that FNAF games seem to never use level 20 AI in the "pre-made" nights
A Bite at Freddy's technically does with the "Full Course" challenge but even that's dialed back so you don't just get slammed immediately, the crew gets to that point during the home stretch - _you gotta MANUALLY set the AIs to 20 if you want the level 20 experience the whole time_
I’ve heard of a FNAF fangame (fangame of a fangame, technically) where, in one of the side modes, almost every new character that gets added is immediately set to 20
One example i can come up with is a fangame called "playtime with percy", and on the custom hour section (the game's version of the custom night) there is an all 20 challenge after beating the 2 ones that the game gives you
The main reason for that is because most fan games tend to stick to the FNAF one way of determining movement opportunities, meaning that an animatronic on AI level 20 is usually a teleporting little freak that's almost impossible to deal with unless you take advantage of little quirks in the way the AI works. That type of info takes a bit to come out so the game would die pretty quick if animatronics on say night 5 were on AI level 20 all night.
It's worth noting that the "actual 5/20" works by removing the "start time" for threadbear and foxy, which makes it very comparable to this one, interestingly enough!
Chickenninja would've loved this
True but to be fair Night Null would have still been impossible.
Nah he would've beaten it, it just would take 8 months to upload@snnnaaaaaakeeeee4470
Firstly, THANK YOU!!! I’ve been trying to find an ai breakdown of FNAC for hours. Secondly, 🗣️ “Can I take your order?” 🔥 🔥 🗣️ 🔥 🔥
Lmao hours? A lot of us have been waiting for something like this for years
@@gwotkid8314 I mean this is for FNaC Remastered and not the other classic 3 games, which I also wanted
@@gwotkid8314waiting is waiting my dude, no matter the time
@@josephprince0208 hey i'm not trying to invalidate you or anything, it's just funny when this is something so many have been curious about for so long. It's like saying, "Hell yeah Portal 3! I've been waiting months for this one!"
@@gwotkid8314 nah all good. I meant as in hours back to back, devouring the internet.
4:45 the reason why the right door drains less power is because, described by the devs, was the first door made and were testing alot with it, alongside they forgot to change it while copying the scripts for the remaining 2 doors
it's actually impressive watching somebody that wasn't able to beat any fnaf beating these challenges and explaning the AI to all of us and just of a couple of months. KEEP IT GOING
I think you're the first FNAFTuber to involve your community in video creation like this and I hope you're not the last. UCN 50/20 is a special kind of nightmare and I admire anyone who can take it and other crazy ass challenges on because I'd die from anxiety just trying to get to 1AM, LMAO. I'm looking forward to seeing what everyone cooks up and just keep doing what you're doing. I'm glad the Almighty Algorithm helped me find you, man.
I have never seen people talk about the technical aspects of fnaf fangames, I'm so glad this video exists because I was getting bored of everyone studying fnaf 1 all the time!
1:46 bro dropped the hardest fnaf fangame intro like we wouldn't notice
i loved when shadow candy at 20 just beat the SOUL out the door
The Shadow Candy transition into the start of the challenge night was clean
I know chickenninja is VEHEMENTLY watching this rn
imagine NOT breaking down the strategy to beat the most unhinged thing you've ever done on the channel
I've always wonder how fnaf fan games runs their ai, especially ones that were released around 2015 where people didn't know how these silly dudes worked
Given the fact no info is public about this game’s AI as far as I’m aware this is good sh** man. Keep up the great work 👍👍
As everyone else in the comment said, "Don't show ChickenNinja" but, if we did tell ChickenNinja we wouldn't have gotten 'The OP Strat'
Thanks for making this video
I remember chickenNinja saying that the AI wasn't known, glad to know that it is now
I dunno why but the Rat with Black Forces just gets me lmfao
poor chickenninja, if only he knew this info earlier
Sadly he still would have not gotten through Night Null. It is impossible without cameras.
Okay but why did the Grand Doomer's theme fit Shadow Candy so well-
ikr
It fits WAY to well.
Ahh yes, a tutorial of a game I've never played nor intend on playing and still I put all my attention on it for 40 minutes... Very good video my guy, these are my favorites
25:22
Glad to know that Shadow Candy went to anger management thereapy so he never reaches 20, that is actual insanity.
Also, does anyone have the link to that Grand Doomer theme during the Ultimate challenge at 38:23?
Edit: Nevermind, found it. It is a remix from Super Kirby Clash
25:24
At that point, he's just beating the hell out of the door.
The first FNAF fan-game I ever beat!! great to see a breakdown on this
21:47 shadow candy with the grand doomer music has me rolling
dude it fits him so well it was such a good find
1:46 this intro goes hard.
@ChickenNinja42 needed this so damn badly. 😂
Of all the people farming these games for content, you're by far my favorite.
(I'm mostly joking and ribbing myself for watching what is essentially the same video from different people.)
i remember watching this guy's guide playlist, forgetting about him, seeing one of his videos in my recommendations and thinking he was one of those random speedrun channels but a fnaf version, then i listened to his voice and realized i recognized him. i unironically love this dude's stuff, and his voice!
I need more FNAC in my life. I also love learning about the technical aspects and behind the scenes of video games- this video gives us the best of both worlds! Chickenninja would’ve loved this video for his FNAC no cams video. :)
Your production quality never ceases to amaze. Please keep doing what you're doing.
Man, ChickenNinja would’ve loved this.
Holy, this has been the thing FNaF CZcams wanted ever since FNaF 1 was disected
With the UCN vid, I appreciate you moving away from AI art to looking to commission artists in your community.
25:24 RICKY! WHEN I CATCH YOU RICKY. RICKY WHEN I CATCH YOU
few moments later
THE **** DID YOU SAY TO ME YOU LITTLE-
casually dropped the hardest FNAC:R edit in the intro and thought we wouldn't notice
It goes so hard it's not even real
This video will change the world trust🙏
11:23 In simple terms here: the higher the AI value:
-The faster the attack patience before you die (as short as 5 seconds)
-The longer the door patience before they leave (as long as 11.5 seconds)
I’ve been waiting for this video after seeing you’ve been live playing this game! Keep up the quality content my guy
Been a fan since 500 subs, made it to 5am on max difficulty on fnaf 1 and 2 thanks for the help I’ll get it soon!!
Nice to finally see a breakdown for FNAC!
I love how you’re revisiting this game, it’s my favorite fan game and recently I’ve been getting back into it.
This has been my favorite ai breakdown yet. W video and can’t wait to see what you have next!
This editing is insane!!! Keep up the amazing work man ❤
We’re definitely so back
Big W vid bones
I am loving the editing on these vids. Keep it up with the peak content.
oh man, that intro is AMAZING
I see a ton of effort and time put into this, you get my sub and a like
I love every video you make and i get so excited every time i see you uploaded. Can you do an AI breakdown of popgoes next? It's one of my favorite FNAF fangames so I'd love to see it!
The music choice for all of the Shadow Candy parts were perfect!
Awesome! It's great to see that more and more people want to know how this game works! And I'm also happy to see you'll cover the FNaC But Better games in the future! Will you also cover the second game in the FNaC series? Despite being the weakest of the three, I always found it the most curious, since it's the one with the most room for potential.
I like the joke edits scattered throughout. It maintains a comedic tone while focusing on the information.
I love the way you edit your vids, makes me think that the animatronics are gonna have an epic rap battle
Really awesome video bro, im someone who plays a lot of fangame max modes and i mightttt give 7/25 + shadow candy a shot
Regardless, good job on both the video and the max mode completion 🙏
I love videos and guides Tysm this wus rlly useful
Been waiting for this one YESSIRRR
the editing in this is so good
Very epic video, loved it :D
Putting Aquatic Ambience on a horror game video is amazingly beautiful. ❤❤
This might just be the best video I’ve ever watched
No matter how much I hear it I will always enjoy hearing people explain how the AI works.
POV when you piss off shadow candy he proceededs to remove half of your power
FINALLY.
I'VE ALWAYS WANTED TO KNOW HOW THIS GAME WORKS!
I think I actually brought it up in one of my Candy's videos.
For some reason, this was really interesting to me lmfao, Fun video.
30:06 the reason why the game handles the time like that is I think so that Shadow Candy wouldn’t rewind his AI level, as his AI level is time-dependent. The game to display how many hours progressed is:
DisplayedTime = 6-(GoalPost-TotalHours).
Where GoalPost is the target time the night ends. Initially this value is 6, but incremted by 1 for every Shadow Candy attack, and decreased by 1 for each origami found (I’d assume you cannot decrease this value below 6)
TotalHours is how many hours you progressed, increasing every 1 minute and 10 seconds (assuming a night is 7 minutes).
That would make sense, never considered that
@@TheBones5An alternative would be to simply avoid setting the AI level to a lower number. When a certain hour is reached, first check the AI it would’ve set to, and if it’s current AI is equal or higher than it (already have reached before), then don’t set to a lower value. AI level shouldn’t decrease when hour count decrease.
Analogous to boss phases that they can heal to have HP before the phase trigger (e.g have trigger at 50%, boss takes damage to bring it to 50%, permanently increment the “phase counter”, heals above 50%, player brings it back to 50%, phase trigger doesn’t happen again because it is already at that value).
shadow candy is so freaking cool actually, like imagine if there was a night that was just a frantic boss fight against shadow bonnie or freddy instead of just being little easter egg things that don't matter at all
that’s the gem about modding when games are too easy. It extends replayability.
Omg someone actually did it, bravo!
W video mate!
Ive been waiting for this
"oh, oh it aint funny no more"
everybody gangsta till the panguin start taken orders
Please break down the 7/20 + SC challenge strat in a separate video someday! I’m super interested
Love this channel
thats such a cool challange run
Let's GOOOO I just sat down to eat so this is PERFECT
Crazy Video!
just saw the notification you know I had to click it 🔥🔥🔥
thanks to this video, i beat night 8 first try!
MY FAV CZcamsR FINALLY POSTED
I love how ChickenNinja's beating candy's without cameras video is in the recommended videos to this
Leta fucking go. Been so excited for this
LIFE CHANGING VID INCOMING LESSGO
Can I take your order? 🗣🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
No stop messing with my doors!
6:04 "Oppertunites" rip
Lol.
gemstone of a fuckin vid right here, Great job! Now back to my crippling gaming addiction as I maybe one day actually play a fnaf fan game
can't wait to try the modded mode the base game was genuinely way too easy for me
every night took 1 attempt (except for night 3 for some reason and 7/20 mode and the only reason it took me 2 tries was bc i was just testing my old strat on my 1st attempt)
Bro gave the rat black air-forces 😂. 15:58
amazing video! just want to say one thing, with the origami cat, it only subtracts *one* hour from the time offset, instead of setting it to 0
so glad chickenninja can finally get the information he needs
Origami cat my beloved 💙
I can finally say I have beaten Night 6 in Five Nights At Candy's Remastered :)
perfect name for the challenge: null/20 mode.
Chickenninja would have loved this video for his no cameras run.
