You see, while Hello Neighbor is technically categorized as a “horror” game, it does not rely on typical horror tropes. Because there is something fundamentally different about Alpha 4 that doesn’t fit the initial impression those earlier demos gave me. And you’d think that would make me happy. Just as I had been hoping for, Alpha 4 seems to have adopted some of the stranger elements of Alpha 1. What I really liked about this early version of the game was how weird and unexpected it could be and how these bizarre elements seemed to have no clear explanation. And strangest of all, a mannequin buried in a coffin in one of the middle rooms of the house. There was a random classroom where mysterious paper airplanes would get thrown at you if you turned your back.
In that version of the game, there was a shark swimming around in an upstairs room. If you recall a past post I wrote on the subject, then you will know that I enjoyed the more whimsical elements seen in Alpha 1. And I’m not sure I like it.Īt first, my issues with the game might seem a bit contradictory. While this version of the game seems superficially the same, something major has changed just beneath the surface. And yet, the farther I watched the player get into the game (I first watched the game on GTLive, then I turned to 8-BitRyan for the secrets the former channel had missed), I realized something. The neighbor’s house is largely the same as the one we saw in Alpha 3, with some adjustments and additions, and the main gameplay mechanics have largely remained untouched, as well. The first thing I noticed was that, unlike previous installments, the changes made in this version of the game are not quite so drastic. To my immense delight, demo version Alpha 4 was recently released. Over the course of Alpha 1-3, the game has undergone major changes as it heads ever closer to completion, and I must admit, it’s been pretty exciting. The game has been shaping up to be rather fascinating indeed as we all wait for the neighbor’s secret to be revealed.
Throughout the game, you will be avoiding the neighbor and solving puzzles in order to obtain the items necessary to open the basement door. Simply put, your goal is to sneak into your neighbor’s house and discover what he’s hiding in his basement. If you’re not familiar with this game, allow me to summarize. In Alpha 1, he can simply walk away from the Neighbor unless he gets caught too many times, in which case the Neighbor will become faster.For the last month or so, I have been frequently checking Youtube in the hopes of discovering more updates for the intriguing indie game, Hello Neighbor. The player's running speed has generally been tweaked throughout the builds first in Pre-Alpha, he was slower than Mr.Notably, it is not textured, for you never see the model outside of the shadow. Peterson's model, but with a different head and arms. It's internal name is "player_shadow.uasset" and appears to be a version of Mr. The only known appearance of the player in Pre-Alpha was his shadow as seen during gameplay.The player is very fast, as he can escape the Neighbor in almost any situation. However, this caused major glitching and was removed. In the Pre-Alpha, the player can lean sideways, unlike any other Hello Neighbor build. The player in Alpha 1's release simply has no model but unlike the Prototype and Pre-Alpha, his shadow cannot be seen during gameplay. Interestingly, he has a small bandage on his right hand and multiple cuts on both hands. The scrapped Alpha 1 player model has a blue vest with a white checkered shirt underneath, and this time instead of gloves, he has a watch. The Prototype to Pre-Alpha player model has rolled up sleeves and wears gloves.
