Part 2 here: • I REMADE The Secret Of...
Steel Wool has been keeping the PAX demo of Secret of the Mimic under wraps, but after 5 playthroughs and 4 watchthroughs, I've been able to remake the demo with nothing but my own notes!
...have I forced the 'rithm to do its job yet? Good. Now onto the non-slop description:
This is a layout recreation of the first level to the demo. I'm going to do the second level as soon as I have the time to. I hope you all stick around for that and enjoy! Feel free to voice your opinions on my work, I'm open for criticism even on things made with such short notice as this.
UPDATE: I am recovered from COVID and have finished the Chase remake: th-cam.com/video/jtY6CgZ_P1E/w-d-xo.html
A quick update: I just tested positive for COVID from Pax, so the second level is probably going to take some time.
Oh :C
Take care!! Plis!! 🫂
@@wolfcl0ck take care of yourself
Steel Wool found out what you were doing so they got you sick (jk love this vid hope you get better man 👍).
get well soon man that sucks
@@ethanimatronic Actually they were quite happy to talk with me and let me take notes as my friend was playing and vice versa. One of them on the last day even joked about looking forward to seeing my gmod map remakes.
"Sorry dude, we can't let you show off the gameplay on your channel."
"Fine, I'll make it myself"
@@AshyWashy4096 sometimes you gotta take matters into your own hands. The chase vid comin latee today
@@wolfcl0ck Is this its own game or is this gmod im going insane XD
It feels like gmod given some of the props and a few instances of b-hopping
@@joshuaplays3586yes this is gmod
@@WRAITHMANE alr thx
As somebody who got to play the demo at pax, this is what the map layout looks like, in terms of aesthetic, its not quite there but i know for the most part you were just trying to get the layout, furniture, etc, and your spot on.
@@SkylerIsFine thank you! After I get the chase done, I might come back to this and do some adjustments like remaking the room through the windows (it was just a cubemap in the actual demo but it wouldn't hurt to remake, I think the blue bird costume from ruin was being constructed in the middle)
For people that can’t visualize things very well, this is amazing. Thank you so much for making this
Glad you liked it!
this is sick! thanks for doing this for those who weren't able to make it to PAX! :D
For being a quickly done environment you made in the middle of the night after 4 days of Pax West, I’m genuinely impressed by how this lines up very well with what other people are saying about the demo. Amazing work! I hope you get some rest after this.
Oh I hope so too. Got the second level to make, still. *That* one took me all of my playthroughs *and* watching all of my friend's playthroughs to get the right layout for. I even had to resort to scribbling notes down on a paper giftbag when I left my sketchbook in my hotel room.
Edit: I got like 5 hours of sleep *tops*
@@wolfcl0ck Thank you so much though, you are lowkey the non-pax west attendees savior
This is hella cool to see and aligns very well with everything we've heard about the demo, but it's especially nice having some sort of reference to go off of. I'm really excited to see how closely this lines up to the actual game, whether we see it in the form of a demo or a full game I'm excited regardless. It's also interesting to me that they had so much Fredbear's marketing despite it being so early, like even having pizza boxes prepared makes me think we'll 100% get a fredbear model too. Thank you for this, it's very cool!
What a service you are doing for the fnaf community. Thats amazing, i hope to god more people find your video
Well! It's much appreciated! If you'd like to help out with that, sharing in a place or two that you know people would enjoy this would really help me out!
2:02 honestly this is one of the only videos I geniunely would (and did) leave a like on. No one else has explained the demo in THIS MUCH detail. Even just the trash can at the start is an example of this. You give even the most minute details. And you having recreated it is also good as I couldn't exactly piece it in my head from the descriptions we've gotten.
i was wonder if/when someone was gonna do this lol & wow u nailed it dude!
i had the chance to try out both demos once each & this is a pretty spot on remake of the office level layout o7
the scene with Jackie and the Mailbot really feels to me like its in the same vein as the Jeff and Headcrab Elevator scene from Alyx.
really exciting stuff
Yeah, when you mention it like that, it *is* somewhat comparable.
Really appreciate this, makes it a lot easier to actually visualize all of the descriptions of the demo.
Already love what I'm hearing, especially about Jackie's introduction. Sounds intense and I can't wait to actually see it
I’m pretty sure the full game will also be available on consoles in a non VR version as well.
i was hoping someone would do this!! thank you so much for taking the time to make it and explain everything
this is SUCH a huge help for everyone who couldn’t go to PAX - thank you, you are a lifesaver for real. commenting to help boost this video so more people can see it!!
this is amazing! as someone who can't go to pax, thank you
Glad you're finally getting the recognition on your channel! Best of luck with your future endeavors!
IM HYPED FOR THIS GAME!
cool to see what It looks like
Its a recreation, not official
I think that that “octupus” poster is actually a large tarantula! Notice how the eye are blacked out and they have white gloves like DJ Music Man whom was based off of a spider.
I think it's a starfish since there's a lot of star imagery, the hat has stars on it, the glasses on his face have the shapes of a starfish, and it looks like it's an underwater creature
@@JonJeanJohn yeah that does sound a bit better but the gloves and amount of limbs sell it for me
@@DJ_Music_Man2 i mean the gloves aren't really anything special, plenty of characters have that type of gloves and the limbs could be an over exaggeration on the poster's part since it is cartoony but idk that's my best guess, I just don't know why a tarantula has all this star imagery and has an underwater look
@@JonJeanJohn well… we’ll see when it comes out…
yo thanks for taking the time out to make this recreation! i’m very hyped for this game!
"Jackie" IS the mimic.
Its missing its legs, which the mimic is also missing at this time, as it doesn't get legs until it gets sent to the Pizzaplex.
It also has a body that can stretch and contort into any shape, which is what the mimic is known for.
Yep! And I think that if that isn't evidence enough, the fact that it constantly repeats voice lines also lines up with how it acts in the books. We actually realized that, at the start of the chase, she'll pick a random voice line and repeat that same line all throughout the level. There was "Get back to work, ____" (the last word definitely wasn't jackie or mimic, it almost sounded like "Lila" to me,) as well as "I want a nice big slice of cake," and "Time for your birthday hug."
And people still think it isnt...
The Mimic gets legs way before the Pizzaplex. A team is sent to Edwin's factory not long after his disappearance and they repair the Mimic and give it legs. Jackie is likely a Mimic model 2.
@@ABteam1009 yeah, but maybe it was before that, and it wouldnt make much sense for them to be teasing a new animatronic suit in an upcoming game that has "mimic" in its title, also what other character doesnt have legs that could be there?
@@ForgottenForToday i just said it's likely a model 2 mimic
damn this sounds so good now that you visualized it!
This is very cool of you to do, thanks!
It's crazy how spot on this is
That is exaclty what I wanted to see someone do, this is great!
Someone recreated the entire thing in Minecraft I just watched them give a tour, u can search up Mimic Demo Minecraft and it would probably come up, it looks rlly good!
Can you imagine him creating this to just put us in a wrong direction. Ofc it's not the case but it would be super funny and definitely something steelwool has to pay you for lmao
On a COMPLETELY unrelated note, if anyone from Steel Wool is watching, my email's on my page.
me: mom can i go to pax west to play secret of the mimic? mom: no we have it on youtube. secret of the mimic on youtube: ] i gotta say this is HELLA COOL!! it literally makes me feel like if been to pax west and played it. now i can get a rough sense on what there is to come when the game releases
In part 2 do you think you can make a model of how Jackie looked in his/her chasing stage while in level 2 and 1? Also models of how the mascots in the starting room looked like?
a bit beyond my capabilities, I'm mostly a hard-body modeler. Could probably retrofit a few of the existing models for some things, though.
thank you so much!!! you are the best!
The mascot could have been the chef pig or the gator. Ive heard those two were in the demo. Also, No1 crate showing up matches up with Edwin inventing Mr Hugs in the book.
@@at_witts_end3470 both of those were actually in the menu screen when setting your options. It's possible one of them was in that spot? I don't believe so, though
Fascinating. I know the gator is important at least since the Gator is the first outfit the mimic ever wore in the books, and as such, is likely the original Monty. @@wolfcl0ck
As someone who just read The Mimic Tales story this morning. He does not invent Mr. Hugs. He invents a robotic vacuum cleaner. It's never said or implied to be Mr. Hugs. Mr. Hugs is just a regular vacuum with weird stuff on it.
@@SnailTheNail seeing as No 1 Crate is reportedly in the SotM Demo, Trash and the Gang were in HW2 for seemingly no reason, and the fact FE bought the company after the robotic vacuum...what other robot vacuum in FNaF could it be talking about?
@@at_witts_end3470 Mr Hugs isn't even a robot vacuum. it's just a vacuum with stuff attached to it made to be a cheaply made "animatronic". Edwin's vacuum is a vacuum, not an animatronic made out of trash.
This actually gave me a really good idea of what it was like! Also the part where Jackie destroys the mailbox sounds sick 🔥🔥
this is great for my aphantasia lmao Please recreate the chase!
@@linomatheus7418 👍I'll do my best!
Her official name is indeed Jackie (her fan-given name before we knew she was a she was funky tom)
Im not gonna lie SOTM has the potential to be the scariest fnaf game given what i know of it
holy shit we're desperate
Im a great visualiser but im terrible at comprehension. Thank you for this video and its reasuring to see people who went to pax and played the demo agreeing with this recreationg
Thank's for remaking the demo!
Im hyped now
Omg
you really looking out for us broke people who can’t afford to go to PAX, thank you goat.
Glad to help. I should really get these maps finished up and published somewhere so that people can take a look at them.
You did the exact thing I thought about… Thank You! 😂
I’ve heard that the elephant costume from ruin is in the demo, is that true? Had it on the background so maybe you said it and I didn’t hear it tho idk
Yep. There's a clean version of the elephant costume in the mimic's room, which I visualized with d0g here. There'a also the messy head of it in the chase just after a section where you have to crouch and pull levers. There was also a hollowed out GOLDEN head and golden arm of the elephant in the same location as the head, so make of that as you will.
yo ur the damn goat for doing this like this is insane
It was a goose with a party hat I think it also had black eyes and was crying Black tears it reminded me of the duck from dark deception 5:16
I wish so much we get to see vip at some point since it said that it hasnt been in use since a long time
@@ForgottenForToday there actually WAS a stubby looking pig in the menu. People have been calling him a chef but he was in a cage and another user who played it said that it looked like he had a lasso, star, and vest.
4:31 Was Sharpay like a poodle?
Yeah, she looked more like a white and pink toy poodle, not a shar pei at all.
This is a really cool remake in gmod, although if you don’t already know how to, id really reccomend learning blender as id love to see a more accurate recreation of what you saw with all the little details.
@@3DFella Actually I have 7 years of experience in Blender and an MS in game design, although I suspect that by the time I get some model remakes done, they'll probably already release some official footage.
as someoone who has played the sotm demo this is correct

How large is Jackie actually? I hear she’s huge, but is it like… she fills the room? How many players tall is she?
2? 2 and a half? It's hard to measure her exact size because she's only a torso and above, plus her arms are springy and elongate. She's definitely larger than the prop at Pax.
Thank you for this:)
the fact its made in gmod is cazy
I was there and did the demo, the layout is exactly the same, but the spoopy aesthetic isn’t there
this is what happens if steel wool refuses to show gameplay lol. Not that i disliked the video i think its cool.
5:28 it was a present whith eyes. like the trash gang
The #1 gift was a cutout in front of the rocket ship, I'm pretty sure. Whatever was directly in the corner, I am almost positive, was a full mascot costume or statue of some kind.
Its been quite hard to find good records of what characters were visible in the level select screen. Did you take notes on that?
I don't think we took active notes for it, sorry. What I *can* tell you from memory is that I remember there was what looked like a pig in a cage in front of and to the left of the player (I forget what he was wearing, it may have been a sheriff outfit,) the octopus from the "need a hand" poster (it looked completely distinct from the octopus cutout in the mimic room,) and behind and to the right of the player, there was an alligator with red hair and a banjo with at least 3 of the little guys seen on the purple hippo poster. It's possible that sharpay was in there as well, but I don't remember for certain. The floor that the player stands on is some kind of sun/moon design, I *believe* stylized like traditional central-american tile frescos.
@wolfcl0ck thanks for the detailed answer! Was the sun/Moon design a face (as seen in SB/RUIN), or just a normal sun and moon?
2:07 It will be done, my lord.
Your efforts are greatly appreciated!
I was watching your video and... something scary happened. Golden Freeman appeared in The Test Chamber and jump scared me!😱😱😱
Wolfcl0ck
I have a question, did they mention any hint's or something about the release date of this game ?
No, but we know that it's releasing in 2025. One of the developers *did* mention that flat mode and vr mode are both being worked on at the same time, so at least there's a good chance that, even if it only releases with one mode, we won't have to wait long for the other.
@@wolfcl0ck oh, okay, thanks
I think there is a chance for this video to be dmca'd (but we'll see what happens)
Well, of the 5 developers who watched me takes notes and talk about remaking the level layouts, none of them had any objections, and two of them, including one of Steel Wool's co-founders, actually helped me with my notes by pointing out more things. I suspect I'm probably fine.
@@wolfcl0ck good for you 👍
Love Dog from Half Life 2!
i did not go 2 pax but from this vid shood i remake it in rec room and make it working?
It would warm my heart to see some more recreations!
Im just curious since I imagine there wasn't a lot of lighting in the demo, but do you get a flashlight of some kind?
No, but the area around you illuminates, if I remember right.
0:33 BONE LAB MENTIONED 🕺👁️🕺🕺🕺🕺🕺🕺🕺🕺
Was the demo fun also you get jumpscared
Thanks 👍
YES HE DID IT
Was Freddy buff in the demo
Actually my man put on a few pounds to be perfectly honest with ya.
I know someone already asked this but if you could estimate a measurement that would be great, how tall do you estimate Jackie is?
depending on where you measure from, I would say between 8 to 10 feet, but it's really hard to say just because she has no waist and her arms can stretch.
@@wolfcl0ckSo that would be the size of his arms or just the torso?
tysm you are doing a very good job for those of us who did not go to the pax, I am waiting for your video of the chase level
I'm very excited
Wait, are you the same chatter from RTVS streams?
Wolfcl0ck the forbidden. He who cannot be named (in Scorpy's chat, because mods banned saying my username for some reason. I'm making a petition.)
I would love some sort of link to download the map
I can't make any promises but I'll see what I can do after I get the chase done.
THE COPY!!!!
Great stuff man.
Goodness gracious, we have the dastardly "duplicate" on the premise.
🔥🔥🔥🔥
ohh, nobody I've seen had said Jackie was a girl, I had been assuming she was a guy since that's what it seems like the Mimic is ig
I wouldn't worry too much about the gender of an animatronic whose main function is to constantly change its behavior and outward appearance to match different people/mascots. There's a pretty good chance that, in the full game, there will be plenty of boy-mimic-characters, girl-mimic-characters, and probably some that fit neither label.
Is it vr only
@@Kian-p7s from what I know, it should be coming out with both VR and flat screen settings available.
So is there no actually way to see the real gameplay?
I'm afraid not yet.
@@wolfcl0ck do you know when is gonna be available it’s making me excited by watching your vids
@@hangrythepig661 unfortunately, they've been very strangely tight lipped about the new game. It was shown off at PAX and Day of the Devs, but I don't believe that it's been seen anywhere else yet.
@@wolfcl0ck dang it bro it seems very interesting how you described it so far
Good so ppl can see what the trailer at pax was like still mad steelwool wouldn't let ppl at home see it.
спасибо , это очень помогает представить как все выглядит
👍

There wasn't 2 levels there were 3
Nope.
@@wolfcl0ck yes because dawko asked if he could play the 3rd one
@@humalidewarner9894 I'm not going to argue with someone who's just wrong.
I need to see the actual demo cause im scared this game will be worse than sb
Are you sure this is a good idea?
The demo isn't meant to be public
Well, they watched as my friend and I took notes on every little detail, some of the proctors intentionally pointed us towards a few details we otherwise would have missed, and one of them said he was looking forward to my gmod remake, so I suspect they're alright with it. The main point of not showing real footage is to hide unfinished content until its ready and build hype, so someone remaking the level layouts and talking about what they saw will probably help on both fronts.
that is a demake
Wtf
Sorry, was I perhaps not up to expectations?
@@wolfcl0ck no this is insane
