Newgrounds.com — Everything, By Everyone.

Dogtooth: Night of the Nefas (or NotN for short) is a supernatural story driven game with point n' click style puzzle solving, a mystery story and realtime combat. Think Broken Sword meets The Evil dead with a dash of Streets of Rage thrown in for good measure. Get ready for clue hunting, hat wearing, monster bashing action.

This is turning out to be an absolute beast in terms of scale, NotN will be one of the last Po3 games released as we're currently aiming for a fitting Halloween-time release. I am working full time until then on art and script while Mike continues to program diligently, it will be some time yet before Maestro starts to cook up the score but I'm expecting greatness as usual. I will attempt to keep as up to date as possible from now on with blogs as a method of keeping myself on schedule.

In other news, while I continue to work on the game it appears as if ol' Hap Har has landed himself a job producing an animated comedy sketch for the BBC. Girlfriend gonna get paaaaaaid!!

Aug. 23, 2009 | 4:11 PM Homocidicle says:

Hot damn Harry, how long did it take you to make that background?

Aug. 23, 2009 | 4:28 PM HappyHarry responds:

Too long, it's gonna be a hardcore month.

Aug. 23, 2009 | 4:11 PM Toukeman says:

I can tell just from the screenshot that this is going to be a Massive game.

Good Luck bro.

Aug. 23, 2009 | 4:30 PM HappyHarry responds:

It's gonna be a lotta work, thanks for the encouragement, it really helps :)

You mean we get to give ghosties the ol' GRAND UPPAH treatment? Swell

Aug. 23, 2009 | 4:31 PM HappyHarry responds:

You certainly do get to roll up your sleeves and 'ave a go, yes.

Aug. 23, 2009 | 4:17 PM McPhearson says:

NIIIIIICE man! I've always wanted to see a game from you! This Po3 event is going to release some mega awesome stuff this fall!

Aug. 23, 2009 | 4:23 PM bmxdudleydo says:

YOur my favorite animator on newgrounds. If you are going to make it, it is going to be awesome! I like it already! :D

Aug. 23, 2009 | 4:27 PM Lazyfeet says:

How'd you learn how to actionscript a point and click game? That's my dream on flash :D Also, looks sweet.

Aug. 23, 2009 | 4:28 PM HappyHarry responds:

Mike is programming it, ask him.

Aug. 23, 2009 | 4:44 PM AronKong says:

I found Point N Click adventures pretty boring now a days.

Reemus is a acception.

Aug. 23, 2009 | 4:46 PM HappyHarry responds:

I'm not a point n' click guy either really, but this will offer more than the usual fare.

Aug. 23, 2009 | 4:52 PM FrozenFire says:

Looks fucktastic.

Aug. 23, 2009 | 4:58 PM MattyMayhem says:

You work as animator? Hot dick...

Aug. 23, 2009 | 5:00 PM VidGameDude says:

what other weapons can we use other than a bat?
or is that a question best left unanswered?
(as in you can't tell)

l8s

Aug. 23, 2009 | 5:20 PM HappyHarry responds:

We haven't figured that out yet, but there should be quite a variety of melee weapons, plus ranged devices and attacks.

Aug. 23, 2009 | 5:05 PM cantflyman says:

The screenie givesoff a bit of Detective Grimoire vibe but with a pinch more grittiness. It sounds fantastic, and that background looks like it took forever to make.

Aug. 23, 2009 | 5:19 PM HappyHarry responds:

Wow thanks, glad it's setting the right tone.

Aug. 23, 2009 | 5:09 PM JonBro says:

Just how long did that single screenshot take to make? It would probably take me 2 months if I worked nonstop lol

Aug. 23, 2009 | 5:20 PM HappyHarry responds:

2 months :P

Aug. 23, 2009 | 5:15 PM therealanimator says:

it reminds me of the old lucasart point and click games. im looking forward to it harry.

Aug. 23, 2009 | 5:20 PM HappyHarry responds:

Awesome, thanks :)

Aug. 23, 2009 | 5:17 PM Brundaty says:

Oh my gawd, Harry. Looks like a giant bucket of 1337 sauce. Y'know... If people still say that...

Aug. 23, 2009 | 5:19 PM HappyHarry responds:

They do, my nan said it yesterday.

Aug. 23, 2009 | 5:23 PM Therman says:

That background is so hot I wanna have sex with it =O

Aug. 23, 2009 | 5:25 PM RobHalford says:

Our game's going to be one of the last released as well.

Hope yours turns out well.

Aug. 23, 2009 | 5:27 PM zrb says:

Looking real good. Can't wait to see what everyone else is up to.

I should probably get back to work before Luis gets back :P

Aug. 23, 2009 | 5:48 PM HappyHarry responds:

Damn that Luis 'Cotton Field Overseer' Castanon!

Aug. 23, 2009 | 5:30 PM Incognitus says:

I'd be impressed if I got to play the game in that width. Congratulations on constant competence in consistent computer collaborations with companions and corporate commissions. Confident?

Aug. 23, 2009 | 5:45 PM HappyHarry responds:

Stan Lee??

Aug. 23, 2009 | 5:33 PM portalwarpedJP says:

Aug. 23, 2009 | 5:45 PM HappyHarry responds:

Yes.

Aug. 23, 2009 | 5:36 PM deevvon says:

Is it normal to jizz a little when seeing this?

Aug. 23, 2009 | 5:47 PM HappyHarry responds:

Hah, I'm sure it is. Thanks :3

Aug. 23, 2009 | 5:37 PM Gojiralph says:

Jesus, Dogtooth looks like it's gonna be an absolute beast, I am literally excited. And well done on the BBC job, can you spill any details about what its to do with or what?

Aug. 23, 2009 | 5:48 PM HappyHarry responds:

I can't give anything away I'm afraid but I hope it will end up on NG eventually, if not, I'll post a link to it here instead.

Aug. 23, 2009 | 5:40 PM Emanhattan says:

holy shit man that looks like a game someone paid you a million bux for not just a game done for fun

Aug. 23, 2009 | 5:48 PM HappyHarry responds:

Aug. 23, 2009 | 6:28 PM Kirbopher says:

Aug. 23, 2009 | 6:43 PM JT1 says:

Aug. 23, 2009 | 6:52 PM max15946 says:

Aug. 23, 2009 | 6:55 PM shooga64 says:

Tell you what, lad. Throw in unlockable hats, and i'm sold.

Aug. 23, 2009 | 7:02 PM HappyHarry responds:

Already done :3

Aug. 23, 2009 | 7:08 PM Oney says:

I dunno. the backgrounds look half arsed and the main character looks like you, which is really gay considering you're a faggot

Aug. 23, 2009 | 7:11 PM VidGameDude says:

will you post the backround in the art portal after the Po3 shenanigans?

Aug. 23, 2009 | 7:18 PM HappyHarry responds:

I will post a whole bunch of game art including backgrounds later on, some before release,

Aug. 23, 2009 | 7:38 PM Appsro says:

That screenshot is fantastic! I'm a huge fan of the point and click style games and I'm excited to see you working on one. Po3 can't get here soon enough. Congrats on the BBC series! I'm glad to see your animating is leading to paid work. Your too damn good not to get some cash for the outstanding work you produce. Kudos Harry

Aug. 23, 2009 | 8:22 PM HappyHarry responds:

That's really sweet dude, thank you. And keep doing what you're doing, I love your stuff too.

Aug. 23, 2009 | 7:59 PM NegativeONE says:

Fk.. QUIT RAISING THE BAR, haha. It's already kinda hard to get to.

Aug. 23, 2009 | 8:23 PM HappyHarry responds:

As if you don't already have the monopoly on awesome flash point n' click games. Tsk.

Aug. 23, 2009 | 8:23 PM HappyHarry responds:

Different strokes for different folks.

Aug. 23, 2009 | 8:13 PM yt1DER says:

Does he fight anything? The art is pretty and all but I'm not going to like it very much if he doesn't at least randomly fight something...

Aug. 23, 2009 | 8:23 PM HappyHarry responds:

Did you read the post at all?

Aug. 23, 2009 | 8:15 PM zappawadda says:

I bet Bruce Campbell would be down to voice this thing.

Aug. 23, 2009 | 8:24 PM HappyHarry responds:

It's actually set in Britian, not that I wouldn't throw that out the window in a heart beat if the Chin wanted to get involved.

Aug. 23, 2009 | 8:15 PM Goonie says:

Mike and Maestro and Yourself will complete a great game. I can't wait. Such talented artist. *I am not worthy* :(

Aug. 23, 2009 | 8:25 PM HappyHarry responds:

This is true, but we're pretty accommodating folks :3

Aug. 23, 2009 | 8:34 PM Jonas says:

You had me at Hat wearing.

Aug. 23, 2009 | 8:40 PM HappyHarry responds:

Crushable, naturally.

Aug. 23, 2009 | 8:44 PM MrAbnormal says:

Well its made by HappyHarry, Mike, and MaestroRage, HOW COULD THIS GO WRONG?

Aug. 23, 2009 | 9:01 PM HappyHarry responds:

Thanks :3

Aug. 23, 2009 | 8:54 PM TheMexicanMuffinMan says:

Will I have to read a strategy guide written by someone else to beat it?

Aug. 23, 2009 | 9:01 PM HappyHarry responds:

I'm sure we can produce our own, but hopefully you won't need one.

Aug. 23, 2009 | 8:59 PM Winzra says:

This is quite impressive. I am enjoying the entire atmosphere already; can't wait to see the finished project!

Good luck on the rest,

Cheers!

Aug. 23, 2009 | 9:15 PM HappyHarry responds:

Thanks a lot, we'll try to deliver!

Aug. 23, 2009 | 9:05 PM JaShinYa says:

And will there be a way for an American such as me, to view your production on the BBC?

Aug. 23, 2009 | 9:12 PM HappyHarry responds:

This is something for the web, it's one sketch, you'll be able to see it :)

Aug. 23, 2009 | 9:15 PM Zyphonee says:

Aug. 24, 2009 | 9:50 AM HappyHarry responds:

The background was drawn in Photoshop, only the animation will be vector graphics.

Aug. 24, 2009 | 8:11 AM Oney says:
