Step-by-Step Guide to Creating Your FNF Mod

1. Plan

Before diving into development, plan your mod. Consider the following:

- Character Design: Create your own characters or redesign existing ones. Decide on their appearance and animations.

- Music: Compose or remix songs that will be featured in your mod. Refer to our blog for ideas on music tools you can use!

- Storyline: Develop a storyline that fits within the FNF universe or create an entirely new narrative!

2. Create Character Sprites

- Design Your Characters: Use art software like Procreate or the drawing tools within hyperPad to design your character sprites. Ensure you create animations for different states such as idle, singing, and losing.

- Import Sprites: Upload your character sprites into hyperPad and organize them into animation sequences. Learn more from the hyperPad educational program

3. Develop Music Tracks

- Compose Your Music: Use music software like FL Studio, GarageBand, or Audacity to create or remix tracks. The music should align with the rhythm and style of FNF.

- Import Music into hyperPad: Upload your music tracks into hyperPad, ensuring they sync well with the gameplay.

4. Implement Gameplay Mechanics

- Set Up the Game Environment: Use our scene editor to create the game environment. Design backgrounds, stages, and any other visual elements needed.

- Visual Programming: Use our powerful visual programming design to set up your game mechanics that can be played with immediately. This includes character movements, music synchronization, and scoring systems. You can create triggers for animations and events based on player inputs.

5. Testing and Debugging

- Playtest: Routinely test your game to ensure all elements work correctly. Check for synchronization between the music and character animations, and ensure that the gameplay is smooth.

- Debugging: Ask for others to try your game and help identify any issues. Pay attention to feedback from playtests to make necessary adjustments.

6. Share Your Demo

- Export Your Game: Once you’re satisfied with your demo you can immediately upload it to the Apple App Store.

- Distribute Your Demo: Don’t forget to share your game on the hyperPad hub and on socials where you can tag us! We would love to share your creation. Engage with the community to gather feedback and build a fan base.

Tips for Success

- Start Small: Begin with a single character and song before expanding to more complex content. This will help you manage the project more effectively.

- Engage with the Community: Join FNF modding or game creation forums (like ours) and even social media groups to share your progress, seek advice, and gather feedback.

- Keep Learning: Continuously improve your skills by learning from tutorials, guides, and other modders’ experiences.
