Not much is known about the project aside from a few images, and snippets talked about by Alex in the Hello Neighbor Games discord, the game is currently in Prototype, it takes place in a broken and destroyed Raven Brooks, the Neighbor sports a new (for now unseen) design, and he's "seen better days" according to Alex. You can find old Playtest in Archives.
A playtest for the Prototype of the game was released on January 31st, 2024 on Steam.
Gameplay
Raven Brooks Online is described as a big battle of resources, constantly fighting for materials against man and machine alike, Nikita has implied that the PvP aspect of the game is canned, but nothing is confirmed as of yet.
There is no cash in this town, after-all, a Post-Hurricane Town would have no currency to live off of! So what better than to fight for the scraps, what remains of the town!
Around the world, you will find Enemy Bases, which carry loot for you to steal! But be warned.. Once the storm rolls in.... Your in for some fun.
Storms
Everyonce in awhile, a storm will occur. This is where you are at your most vulnerable, Signed and Coned will come and attack the players base, attempting to steal anything they can, to take back to their bases.
It is then your turn, post-storm, to invade their house, making you both the Intruder and the Protector
