Hello everyone! Here is the pre-release for version 0.9! Windows, MacOS and Linux builds are attached to this post.
Hello everyone!
Here is the pre-release for version 0.9! Windows, MacOS and Linux builds are attached to this post. Download and extract them to play!
This is a very small update, and while I previously said this update would be dedicated almost entirely to bug fixes, I ended up spending most of my time working on a new tutorial instead. All those bugs will get squashed sometime, but it didn't end up being now. Alongside the new tutorial there is now a simple, in-game keyboard for entering file names, which means the game now has 100% native controller support. I also added a dedicated Hide & Seek menu where the game settings now reside. With this menu I've also added a button that allows you to easily start a new game if you have one saved.
I know that for everyone here a tutorial isn't very exciting, but for newcomers it's very important! I hope y'all will check it out and let me know if you can think of any potential improvements.
A few notes about the pre-release:
Please be mindful of spoilers! It is a-okay to share photos and video of the pre-release, this isn't meant to be a big secret, but please do so in a way that people who want to be surprised by new stuff can easily avoid getting spoiled. For example, please don't put pictures of new content in thumbnails. Once this update has been released publicly, don't worry about spoilers.
The pre-releases will use a separate save location from the main game. You can manually copy existing saves over to the pre-release save location if you'd like to use an existing save.
I will most likely only release patches for pre-releases if any super serious bugs are found. Otherwise bug fixes will be saved for the public release version.
I do not have a changelog ready at the moment. I will post one when the public release goes live. Have fun discovering what's new!
Please do not post these builds publicly anywhere, they are meant for Patrons only. That said, I certainly won't mind if people share them amongst close friends who cannot become paid members for any reason.
This being a pre-release, bugs new and old are likely! Please let me know of any new bugs you encounter by commenting below or sending me an email.
Thanks, and have fun!

2025-03-22 06:02:34 +0000 UTCAnd I just figured out just now that when you click on the X button to exit out of the game, then click on options. It will cancel out the quitting action and audio.

2025-02-15 11:34:20 +0000 UTCHey! This version was so much fun to play with but i found a last minute glitch. Not sure if anyone else has reported this but whenever you first boot up the game. Normally the music for the menu (once you go into a file) will play. But I figured out that when you quickly go to "Options" then go back to the menu, the music just stops on its own. I made sure to do this a bunch of times to see if i wasn't going insane and it kept on happening!

2025-02-15 11:32:55 +0000 UTCYou were probably wearing Big Ol' Boots, as they prevent Grappling Hooks from working until they wear off.

2025-02-11 08:43:36 +0000 UTCI like how there's a tutorial mode, That did give me an idea to add a similar mode in Stealpop's Basics.
Stealpop
2025-02-09 12:51:52 +0000 UTCadd more to the tutorial about events, blue lockers, and the timer
kyle
2025-02-08 23:36:35 +0000 UTCKay, after finding out that the game was referring to a modded EXECUTABLE OF THE GAME i went ahead and deleted the folder and the exe launched and baldi speaks and everything is working fine. plz disregard :)
Vanquiler
2025-02-08 22:50:40 +0000 UTCIdea: Make a game over screen when you lose all your power tubes with a Try Again? Or Quit and add a section in the tutorial of how some other items work and with blue locker and timer
kyle
2025-02-08 22:38:19 +0000 UTCalso baldi has a tiny blue sprite on his green shirt in the tutorial
kyle
2025-02-08 22:05:07 +0000 UTCin the tutorial when we start the game baldi did not show up to tag me. baldi tagged me in the tutorial on my first run but not the second when i speed ran it
kyle
2025-02-08 22:03:59 +0000 UTCis the grappling hook meant to pull you in the tutorial or only in hide & seek because if not that's a bug i found
kyle
2025-02-08 21:57:07 +0000 UTCHad a ton of issues personally while loading into the pre-release. I made a new save file and decided to check out the tutorial. 9/10 the game will crash upon loading into the elevator. (TUT) When it DOES load, Baldi says nothing, but the tutorial is still playable in its entirety. I really don't know if this is just a me issue. I also deleted all older instances of Baldi and have never once modded the game. Could this maybe be an issue with older data saved in the game?

2025-02-08 21:42:02 +0000 UTChttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JSoVvCPtJKk oh no! scary bug! i answered a math question correctly while baldi's ruler was broken and this happened! no clue what causes this

2025-02-08 18:01:13 +0000 UTCi got buds so i choose endless mode then i didnt pick shrinking inventory so i start to playing i have to buy bsoda but it was shrinking inventory, idk the game buds

2025-02-07 21:19:34 +0000 UTCGreat idea! I hope something like this gets added!

2025-02-07 16:43:17 +0000 UTCHey, I like the additions and changes! I think this person found a bug with the bully and other characters' path finding or something in this pre-release: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7vwsEdLgyo

2025-02-07 16:42:20 +0000 UTCWhy does baldi have that blue on his arm in the tutorial?
Royal Banana
2025-02-07 11:21:20 +0000 UTCLove the tutorial I am super happy seeing how far this game has gotten
TYLERDRIFT
2025-02-07 05:39:53 +0000 UTCi personally think the blue lockers should be explained in the tutorial since it isnt very obvious that you should only use it against baldi if you have the WD-NoSquee (unless i missed a text board that explains it already), and also that you're only completely hidden in the dark faculty room when the hud gets darker.
ThePhoneMan
2025-02-06 07:33:19 +0000 UTCI love how Bijuu Mike made a whole ass theory because Baldi had a different sprite in the tutorial.
Graysen Wilson
2025-02-06 04:31:05 +0000 UTClove the tutorial, are you supposed to be able to push baldi from the items room into the next tutorial room? because my instinct kicked in and i did exactly that. lol

2025-02-05 16:56:00 +0000 UTCThis new update is really cool! I enjoy the tutorial a lot and think it will be very useful to beginners and is very cool to see. I have not encountered any bugs for the time being, the only real mistake I have noticed is that the copyright date is incorrect, as it says "2024" instead of "2025". Other than that small error this is a good update and I am satisfied with all of the new content which has been added, have a good day!
NOT_ONLINE
2025-02-05 06:42:03 +0000 UTCThey actually apply to every mode: Challenges, Endless, Field Trips but not as important.
The Riddle Goblin
2025-02-04 22:51:12 +0000 UTCBug: Grappling hook audio doesn't end when grappling into a tutorial elevator.
The Riddle Goblin
2025-02-04 22:29:54 +0000 UTCLove the tutorial!. would be epic to add more school like events. a lunch event would be cool! baldi heads there and ignores you until he gets there. like a principal party event but all charecters ignore you on there way to the canteen
Finnley
2025-02-04 20:21:29 +0000 UTCBUG: Baldi's broken ruler sprites are replaced with Baldi's updated happy sprite for some reason. EDIT: Baldi's broken ruler sprites are fixed now??? EDIT 2: Okay, so I'm pretty sure Baldi was congratulating me while his ruler broke, soooooo ye. EDIT 3: I WAS RIGHT, I GOT THE BUG AGAIN LMAO
Nour
2025-02-04 08:29:06 +0000 UTCFound Bug: Play Styles And Challenges will still be applied to the Tutorial
JakeNov
2025-02-04 07:09:27 +0000 UTCAlso, as a general thing that doesn't specifically refer to things added in V0.9, make sure if things like distance to NPCs before they spawn and notebooks in Endless Mode before they respawn are based on the Dijkstra Map.
Anonymous
2025-02-04 05:45:17 +0000 UTCI don't really think him explaining field trips as a whole are necessary, since when you enter one, he already tells you exactly how they work. But the tutorial should mention things like giving Johnny the bus pass.
Graysen Wilson
2025-02-04 04:16:03 +0000 UTCYeah, maybe he should tone it down in the public release, while updating the copyright date.
Graysen Wilson
2025-02-04 04:07:49 +0000 UTCI found an issue not related to the tutorial (You should check out my feedback on another post I made regarding it and my reply to it): When reopening the game, the challenge settings aren't saved.
Anonymous
2025-02-04 03:56:27 +0000 UTCYou can click on the others menu buttons when the "do you want to play the tutorial" screen appears. Also Johnny can't lend a hand even though the chalkboards says he can. I would like my 15,000 ytps now.
Graysen Wilson
2025-02-04 03:46:48 +0000 UTCI found a bug that might be considered serious. Saved games don't seem to be able to be played after closing and re-opening the game.
GrainyWayGalxay
2025-02-04 02:28:38 +0000 UTCgreat tutorial! small issue i had is that the "guess who?" part doesn't need to be completed. adding a locked door between that hall and the characters part and slightly lowering the time between the pauses in his "guess who?" line would fix this. other than that, great update! not as boring as you said!
Max
2025-02-04 01:32:41 +0000 UTCAlso, when you click on the "New Name" button in the name select screen and then go back to the file select screen, Baldi's "Since you're new" voice line won't stop. And right now, you can't go back to the file select screen after selecting a name, which means that you have to quit and restart the game. It would also be nice if you could add a password functionality for files since many old games tended to do that. Also, you can't retrigger Baldi's "Oh, I heard that!" line, which means that if you click on him while he's saying it, you can open the door but he won't say that aforementioned line again. Also, the BSODA machine won't run out, which could cause the newcomers to get confused when the BSODA machine in the real game does run out. Maybe you could simply have Baldi or a chalkboard tell you about it. Also, I think that in the "look behind" sequence, it would be nice if you could turn around with your mouse and have Baldi appear, then tell you to use the key, and then disappear. Also, it'd be nice if you could click on the "look behind" Baldi for him to repeat his line. Also, you could get sent to detention, just barely get out of the room due to Principal's "open and lock the door" functionality, then get sent back, and Baldi will still start counting down as you're trapped in the room.
Anonymous
2025-02-04 00:48:00 +0000 UTCBug found! If Baldi is congratulating a player for getting a question right on the math machine while an event for Broken Ruler is being announced, Baldi will for some reason chase down the player with his ruler movement but still have the sprites from the lipsync and then return to the Broken Ruler sprites after a short while. I think I was the only person to encounter this bug and it looked super funny LOL

2025-02-04 00:41:53 +0000 UTCBug found! Challenge settings apply to the tutorial.

2025-02-03 23:43:59 +0000 UTCNow my brother that can't even walk properly can discover how 2 play
Org his Anim8ing
2025-02-03 23:36:59 +0000 UTCWow, now I finally know how to play! Love the new tutorial, but the music during the tutorial seemed a little too loud compared to the other sounds.
GrainyWayGalxay
2025-02-03 23:34:59 +0000 UTCI wonder if the ui in the hide and seek mode will be somewhat similar to the one in classic remastered
Wolfsterz
2025-02-03 23:04:18 +0000 UTCTutorial was awesome. Here are some suggestions to make it BETTER (by that I mean some bugs and minor feedback)! 1. When you finish the tutorial with captions on, the captions from before can cover up the final screen. And since they don't disappear, it makes reading harder. 2. Whenever you click Baldi again in the detention room, I would make it skip the long pause that is only needed when the principal is saying his dialogue. One more thing. Now that explorer mode is a playstyle, the description box is pretty big now. I'm not saying these needs to be changed at all as it's pretty minor, but only showing the description for the selected playstyle could fix this;.
The Riddle Goblin
2025-02-03 22:45:56 +0000 UTCI'm pretty sure that's intentional!

2025-02-03 22:43:42 +0000 UTCAwesome tutorial.
AwesomePancake3001
2025-02-03 22:32:10 +0000 UTCI like the easter eggs when you do the math machine wrong! You should do more of that in tutorial, like making Baldi comment on you backtracking. Also it'd be nice if the bus got an explanation too, considering field trips are a HUGE game mechanic One more thing, tutor Baldi should mouth sync after he does his wave. Amazing update otherwise!
Elliott
2025-02-03 22:29:41 +0000 UTCThe tutorial is very awesome, I like how you can get Baldi to replay his line if you click on him.

2025-02-03 22:17:24 +0000 UTCTutorial is very exciting. Me so super happy
The Riddle Goblin
2025-02-03 22:01:41 +0000 UTCAlso there's a bug where on the get ready to have fun screen the grapple hook sound continues to play. This likely happens for any continuous sound
Bradylovesgraps
2025-02-03 21:30:40 +0000 UTCImprovement of 1:43:54 with grappling hook and many errors

2025-02-03 20:46:22 +0000 UTCSpeedran the tutorial at 1:48:10. Gonna try and improve this in the replies
Bradylovesgraps
2025-02-03 20:39:00 +0000 UTCOh yeah, there's a bug where you can click on mode menus on the "do you want to start the tutorial" screen.

2025-02-03 19:59:05 +0000 UTCi rlly thought this was a status update, i wasn’t expecting it to be a pre release lol
nineteen
2025-02-03 19:56:06 +0000 UTCYAY! HAPPY BALDI GLIDING TOWARDS YOU IS MORE HORRIFYING THAN ANGRY BALDI SLAPPING HIS RULER! Also I love the tutorial, and will be replaying it for fun. One thing I noticed is that explorer mode is gone, maybe that's just a pre-release thing. (Wait I just checked and it's now a play style.)
Graysen Wilson
2025-02-03 19:05:36 +0000 UTCHere's a little bit of feedback I'd like to share: I think all of the Baldis in the tutorial should be able to be pushed by the BSODA. Also, you can trigger Baldi's "check out what happens when you use the BSODA on me" (not verbatim) line by simply recollecting a BSODA from the storage locker or using the Quarter again on the BSODA machine if you have no other BSODAs in your inventory. Also, Johnny won't lend you a hand if you have at most 100 YTPs short of buying an item, which could confuse newcomers since there was a chalkboard mentioning that functionality.
Anonymous
2025-02-03 18:39:07 +0000 UTCAlso, the fact that there is a functionality for something to spawn behind the player ONLY when the look behind button is pressed is terryfying, because I KNOW it will be used for... SOMETHING alright, and I for sure won't remember this fact by the time I encounter that.
Harma 22
2025-02-03 18:20:44 +0000 UTCI really like the tutorial! It's the best premade map in this game yet. But I think that there should be something about the importance of the bus pass and field trips in there, since winning minigames guarantees the strongest items in the game. (unless the reward system gets reworked)
Harma 22
2025-02-03 17:58:46 +0000 UTCThis update is really good! I did run into something strange, though. I'm new to Patreon so i don't know how to add images to a comment (If that's even possible) but i have a screenshot of 2 vent entrances spawning right next to eachother in a room and im not sure if that's intentional.
LizzyPC2
2025-02-03 17:58:35 +0000 UTCI think it would be cool if by every power tube you lose, the elevator gets more overworked and continuously starts flickering more until you run out of tubes
