6:15 i think its more likely that the drawn versions of these were used as reference for the pixel art versions, since thats how Senpai was made, where he was hand drawn first, then given to a pixel artist to convert into pixel art
If I recall, an unused voiceline for Tankman seemingly insulting Daddy Dearest similar to how he does in the death screen for Week 7 was found, I think he mentioned how bad he was at raising his daughter, so that probably adds more evidence for him being playable.
There's an unused voiceline where tankman tells daddy dearest "Old man's got moves! It's a bummer you raised a whore though" I think you can find it in the github files of the game or on TH-cam.
More proof that Daddy Dearest will be playable is that there is an unused Tankman line in the GitHub files where he says "Old man's got moves, a shame you raised a whore though" most likely for whenever you die as Daddy Dearest I love how unhinged Tankman's lines are lol
the icon head animation might have been the temporary thing to later send it to the pixel artist to use it as a refference of making the animation. this was done with senpai and pixelated versions of BF and GF in the past so its not a suprised they would do this again.
@@TetraBitGaming Actually, it is exactally that. It was only used as reference for a Pixel Artist. I think Phantom Arcade even streamed doing these on the regular style, but i dont remember if he mentioned it being used this way.
@@InklingPedro He didn't ever mention that was the purpose of him doing it, but I can assume that they are references for Maowling (the pixel artist) to use as other icons in the freeplay menu animate the same way as the animations in that livestream PhantomArcade did. Also I think the Daddy Dearest icon in the character select reference over top Boyfriend could've just been a placeholder till Maowling would create an icon for Boyfriend since obviously at the time he wouldn't have had an icon for the freeplay menu until the developments towards this update. Then again who knows when which things were done as PhantomArcade mentions that the team did a lot of different things in the wait for Destination 1 and the different updates we are getting are the result of those months of nothing said about the new content, so who knows what was finished or worked on during that time
@@TetraBitGaming I think tankman has already been confirmed as a playable character. if I remember correctly there's a very old either image or teaser confirming pico, tankman, cassette girl (who has been cut since I believe), and hank as playable character from, before even week 7 (i think it was at 8 minutes into your original fnf lost bits video)
Well the thing about Tankman being playable is that it was no surprise at all, considering years ago Phantom Arcade dropped a photo of Pico, Tankman, Cassette Girl, and Hank from Madness Combat as upcoming playable characters. We've known about this for years and years, and if the list is to be believed, Tankman will be the second playable character followed by Cassette Girl and Hank, which seems to check out Imo. (Edit): Apparently new information surfaced a while back where Ninjamuffin denounced Cassette Girl as a playable character, so I guess that's a rare L for the Cassette Girl fans. It most likely means Hank's coming after Tankman as for playable characters.
tankman is pretty much 100% confirmed he has miss poses, and he was in the original "playable characters" teaser and phantomarcade has said that that list is still going to be in the game but "modified"
3:10 I have a theory for that character select, since it has bf and a random char both on screen what if it's like a mock up for a multiplayer versus mode?
the comically large camera pointed at bfc 'default', and the other similar Icons actually do get used! it's just that in this current update you can't place stuff in the chart editor yourself... HOWEVER if you import a chart from the previous update that uses the corresponding events they actually DO appear in the chart editor in the extra column to the right of the strum lines!
I assume this is just the further continuation of them trying to stylize the editor - in the original blog post they did make it clear all the visuals and ui stuff were only temporary placeholders, basically being default haxeui stuff - so hopefully in the far future everything looks more.. fnf-y.
@@With2Lsshe ended up not fitting fnf lol. the other teased playable characters are still gonna be a thing just not her cause she doesn't fit for the crew's vision.
I think the dad icon is more for placement and concept art purposes, but tankman is 100% confirmed as a playable character along with Hank (from madness combat). 1 other playable character we 'MIGHT' get, but is not 100% confirmed, is maybe Gf. The remaining 4 after that tho are just up to speculation. I'm praying for Gogo (PunchPunchForever) and the spooky kids.
aren't like, 2 of those characters gonna be OC's from the two people that bought a high enough tier on kickstarter before they removed that option? I am pretty sure I remember that if you paid enough, they would add an OC of yours as a playable character. but after a couple people did it, they removed the option. I could be very wrong though. maybe I am misremembering.
@@NotTheDragon837 So, there are indeed 5 other playable characters from people who bought for that tier in the KS, but Dave has said himself that those 5 are separate from the 9 locked ones we've been teased. They want to do something cool and different with them so maybe they'll have their own selection screen, or you'd unlock them straight away when you just boot up the game; instead of earning different characters as you play thru it (like unlocking Pico, tankman etc).
Personally I'm not sure about the Spooky Kids being playable anymore, especially with how their creator isn't very involved in comparison to Pico and Tankman. Also I think most of the remainders will be important future opponents.
I thought it would appear in this video, but there's an unused freeplay animation of pico spinning hin gun except he accidently loses grip and the gun slams onto his face and falls on the floor, he looks embarrassed for a few seconds and then kicks back up his gun like nothing happened. I think its in the fla file or restorable in-game, ive been seeing it everywhere
Tankman and Hank were actually mentioned as future playable characters in an early teaser for the game. This further supports the idea that Tankman will be the next playable character, which makes sense because he’s the mascot of Newgrounds.
Daddy Dearest would interesting for a boss character then being unlocked as playable character, but for Tankman is 100% sure confirmed as a playable character. Similar to Pico, Tankman was teased in the first trailer for the game and had concept sketches for missing a notes. So yeah, Tankman would likely be the next or potential a playable character.
3:10 Senpai as a playable character would go so hard, cuz imagine the effort to make pixel versions of the characters and possibly pixel backgrounds But as cool as that sounds that also sounds like alot of work so who knows lol
9:42 this one is actually used, if you go to a song (example: blammed) that graphic is indeed used in the "events" bar on the chart debug menu for when the camera zooms in or out of a character
@A_3E40Actually, bf didn't have a pixel icon until the Pico update, so it is likely that they just used DD's icon as a placeholder, especially since It wouldn't make sense for him to be in the middle, plus, Bf isn't seen in the menu mockup, which wouldn't make any sense
@@starlite_music-g1s there was a bf pixel icon (same one as it is now too) back in the chart editor before the pico update sooo it couldnt be a full placeholder if bf already HAD an icon
2 things. 1, you forgot to mention that week 4 Nightmare Mode also has new visuals, and 2, we already know Tankman will be playable because of the FNF release trailer back in 2021
tankman is def next playable char, but the DD icon was probably used for mock-up purposes when BF didn’t have his own menu icon (enemy week icons were prioritized for the freeplay redesign)
the "gray diamond" and play animation are actually used in the chart editor when adding events, not shocking that not many people know this since the chart editor is literally broken in 0.5
I just hope Cassette Girl will still be coming to the game, especially since the allegations against SoftDon were proven false, but I imagine she's been completely scrapped at this point.
Cassette girl has been long scraped way beforeb the drama, and they've stated that they've scraped her at the first draft because they did not knew what to do with her since it did not fit the style the game was going, also dave stated taht saruky did Cassette girl better in her own mod So yeah Cassette girl is not gonna come to the game
That is honestly sad. Even though she's able to come to life through mods, it sucks the original won't be a canon thing in the game, but thats how game development goes I suppose. It's always fun though that some unused content that still goes unused still carries that since of memory. I time where they were being developed, but either due to time, style change, complete overhaul of a project, yet still live stagnant within files never to be updated or worked further upon. The mystery and speculation is infinitely intriguing.
I remember phantom arcade made an image that showed a few of the planned future playable characters, which included pico but also cassette girl and hank j Wimbleton, so they cud be a few other playable characters, unless we were just being trolled which wasn’t surprise me lol
2:50 This looks like a PVP match screen,not a character selector itself since there's no place for the character's "GF",you could probably choose your own character to fight another player online in the game's songs
8:58 If I recall correctly some of those are used in the chart editor when adding events to the songs, the chart editor is pretty bugged this update tho
6:55 at the stop middle you can see a sorta chunky looking block of static, I believe this could be apart the animation for unlocking Hank, (from madness combat) a character that was teased ages and ages ago along with tank man and pico
I wouldn't be surprised if fnf and all of the fnf fan builds, fnf leaked builds, fnf dev builds, fnf mods, fnf fan mods, the cut content and all of the other fnf stuff would get ported to the switch as a official video game.
0:53 There actually is a new background for week 4 which can be found in the week 4 erect remixes. People don’t seem to know about this one because the week 4 pico mixes weren’t released.
As someone who has experimented with the engine, I'm going to provide my opinions on this. Good work though Week 4 has a new alternate background. 1:54 To be honest I heavily doubt Daddy Dearest is one of the playable characters. His voice is just a worse version of BF's and I don't see anyone choosing him. Also the pixel icons are done procedurally rather than using an alternate png. I've seen someone predict his icon there was either a joke of a stand-in for hank, I believe that personally. But tankman is 100% being added, especially with how involved his creator is with the game. 2:28 The kickstarter mentioned a two-player mode where players would sing against each other. I believe the mockup is meant for this rather than the freeplay selector. Heavy speculation incoming: I think the +10 player characters thing is repurposed for the two player mode instead of the select menu we have right now. While the characters like Pico are far more ambitious, I think the characters in this section will just be vocal swaps of pre-existing songs. This could have been scrapped altogether but I don't think they would completely remove several of the main aspects of the kickstarter (2-player, online multiplayer, changing the opponent's voices...). Also for another prediction, the characters in the "vs" section will be much less ambitious in comparison to the big ones in the current selector. 6:54 The larger version is the one used in-game. The other two are leftovers from the previous way of doing it. The developers seem to be trying to switch to more efficient methods of rendering sprites such as texture atlasing in results and char select. 9:18 These are used to mark an event in the chart editor.
Week 4 and weekend 1 also got new backgrounds, the one for week 4 is only in the erect remixes and puts a more blue hue to the characters and background, while a fog has overtaken Philly in the BF mix of the song Darnell
Also I could’ve sworn I saw the colored sprite of Pico flipping the bird while playing the week one remixes. Also when I did the new remix of Pico, I got a glitch where the song would loop, seemingly indefinitely. There was no charting, and on the second loop, the smoke notes that appear when you miss scrolled occasionally as if they were normal notes. I left the song and moved on by the third loop. This only happened the first time when I played the song. Another thing that happened was that none of the songs loaded in freeplay. When I changed difficulty, they all loaded. Also occasionally the names of songs when picking an erect remix wouldn’t load correctly and look wonky.
6:43 just wanted to point out, the large one you see IS the one that's used. "randomChill" and the other one are the unused sprite sheets. I found this out when I erased the randomChill one and he continued to show up in-game
Why do I feel like the static placeholder will be the FINAL character to unlock. Like that is their actual design. With CHILL being their actual name. Their gimmick? They will randomly change to a different character mid song. Rapping against one only to rap against a different one part way through
Hey TetraBitGaming, theres this Cuphead ripoff that came out in January called Rubber Hose Rampage. It uses a lot if traced art from old cartoons including Steamboat Willie. You should play it as its actually pretty funny.
the 2 additional spritesheets for the static-y guy probably have to do with unlocking characters, and attempting to use a locked character, since both of those have animations in game.
i am neither good nor big into rhythm games, but this game is oozing so much style and fun that I probably will skin to much time into is as soon as I can play it on my steam deck
9:28 this graphic of the camera on boyfriend could be seen in your Pico Update (part 1) video, in the chart editor on the top right. Doesn't that mean it is already used in the game?
While I do think Tankman might be a playable character, I'm pretty sure Daddy Dearest is just a placeholder as not only is it covering BF's picture (Probably because they haven't made a pixel graphic for BF yet) but also the icon for both Daddy Dearest and Tankman are just the ones seen in freeplay. BTW, I really want GF to be a playable character for some reason
Oh I'm well aware of that, but since then it's also been confirmed that Cassette Girl isn't going to be added anymore apparently so that isn't 100% anymore
I'm pretty sure the daddy dearest icon being used at 1:40 was used as boyfriend's icon as a placeholder since he didn't have one at the time. Also Tankman is confirmed still as a playable unlike Cassette Girl and Hank.
some of these are used in the chart editor, accessible in-game by pressing ~ or ` on the main menu(where you pick story mode/freeplay/options..), and picking the "chart editor" option edit: the reason you didn't see them is because you need to actually place the events, or load a song with events already in it lmao
If they are still going with that playable characters image, then we know for sure Tankman will be playable, as well as Hank and Cassette Girl. One might be for GF, since she is the 2nd important face close to BF, so it would been illogical to not add her, and 2 guesses I have for some of the spots are Henry Stickmin and Edd from Eddsworld, since both of them originate from newgrounds and are important characters in the community.
9:04 That scroll one can be seen in game. It's in the chart menu. Click with the middle part of your mouse (don't know what it's called) and there it is.
3:30 im willing to bet once the game is fully done with Boyfriends week and story. The FNF team will then focus on adding the other characters since with the game fully released it will give everyone in the community enough time to enjoy the full game while the devs of fnf focus on adding extra side dishes to the course
Actually, the large version of randomchill (now named locked chill) is the one used, as it includes ALL animations, including locked turning into pico.
I think Tankman is incredibly likely considering he's the Newgrounds mascot. Dearest I could believe but I wouldn't be surprised if he didn't get added. His assets tended to be placeholders, didn't they? I might be remembering things wrong. I hope Girlfriend gets a character select slot, personally. Seeing her sing in mods like Mario's Madness just makes her feel...possible, I guess? Like there's a want for that outside of just me. It's hard to explain. Maybe a song set where Boyfriend is the opponent too, considering Pico being added makes it so player characters can potentially encounter themselves. I saw Isaac in the background of Pico's winter stages, and that game's sense of humor would be right at home in this game, so if he doesn't get added Imma be like "What the funk?"
if i were to guess the next few playable characters, they would be tankman, daddy dearest, and the 5 supporters who were going to get their own playable characters
The kickstarter characters are something different according to PA. Also, Hank is confirmed to be in the game still, thus its likely he is still planned to be a playable character.
Hope you have a funkin' fresh Friday

i love how the freeplay background is just a screenshot, you can see the cursor ontop of DD
0:54 There's actually new graphics for week 4 as well! You just have to play the erect mixes, where 1,2,3,4, and 5 all have new visuals.
5:45 sometimes i question gf’s lack of comfort
0:55 the week 4 E/nightnmare remixes also have new backgrounds!
Playable characters:
BF
Pico
Skid and Pump
DD and MM
Tankman
Weeks 1-5 INCLUDING 4 have new backgrounds, but only for when you play Erect or Pico mixes. Just wanted to mention that.
6:55 at the stop middle you can see a sorta chunky looking block of static, I believe this could be apart the animation for unlocking Hank, (from madness combat) a character that was teased ages and ages ago along with tank man and pico
I wouldn't be surprised if fnf and all of the fnf fan builds, fnf leaked builds, fnf dev builds, fnf mods, fnf fan mods, the cut content and all of the other fnf stuff would get ported to the switch as a official video game.
"go pico yeah, go pico uh!"
0:53 There actually is a new background for week 4 which can be found in the week 4 erect remixes. People don’t seem to know about this one because the week 4 pico mixes weren’t released.
As someone who has experimented with the engine, I'm going to provide my opinions on this. Good work though
Week 4 has a new alternate background.
1:54 To be honest I heavily doubt Daddy Dearest is one of the playable characters. His voice is just a worse version of BF's and I don't see anyone choosing him. Also the pixel icons are done procedurally rather than using an alternate png. I've seen someone predict his icon there was either a joke of a stand-in for hank, I believe that personally.
But tankman is 100% being added, especially with how involved his creator is with the game.
2:28 The kickstarter mentioned a two-player mode where players would sing against each other. I believe the mockup is meant for this rather than the freeplay selector.
Heavy speculation incoming: I think the +10 player characters thing is repurposed for the two player mode instead of the select menu we have right now. While the characters like Pico are far more ambitious, I think the characters in this section will just be vocal swaps of pre-existing songs. This could have been scrapped altogether but I don't think they would completely remove several of the main aspects of the kickstarter (2-player, online multiplayer, changing the opponent's voices...). Also for another prediction, the characters in the "vs" section will be much less ambitious in comparison to the big ones in the current selector.
6:54 The larger version is the one used in-game. The other two are leftovers from the previous way of doing it. The developers seem to be trying to switch to more efficient methods of rendering sprites such as texture atlasing in results and char select.
9:18 These are used to mark an event in the chart editor.
5:52 nuh uh, second one has more d e p t h
yep, the second one is definitely more *DEEP*
8:05 dude what kind of dad battle that have 22 difficulty!?
Week 4 and weekend 1 also got new backgrounds, the one for week 4 is only in the erect remixes and puts a more blue hue to the characters and background, while a fog has overtaken Philly in the BF mix of the song Darnell
Also I could’ve sworn I saw the colored sprite of Pico flipping the bird while playing the week one remixes. Also when I did the new remix of Pico, I got a glitch where the song would loop, seemingly indefinitely. There was no charting, and on the second loop, the smoke notes that appear when you miss scrolled occasionally as if they were normal notes. I left the song and moved on by the third loop. This only happened the first time when I played the song. Another thing that happened was that none of the songs loaded in freeplay. When I changed difficulty, they all loaded. Also occasionally the names of songs when picking an erect remix wouldn’t load correctly and look wonky.
6:43 just wanted to point out, the large one you see IS the one that's used. "randomChill" and the other one are the unused sprite sheets. I found this out when I erased the randomChill one and he continued to show up in-game
Why do I feel like the static placeholder will be the FINAL character to unlock. Like that is their actual design.
With CHILL being their actual name. Their gimmick?
They will randomly change to a different character mid song.
Rapping against one only to rap against a different one part way through
Hey TetraBitGaming, theres this Cuphead ripoff that came out in January called Rubber Hose Rampage. It uses a lot if traced art from old cartoons including Steamboat Willie. You should play it as its actually pretty funny.
Had no idea this game was still being updated. I remember it was so popular back in 2019.
I cannot imagine the development schedule for Friday night funkin developers
the 2 additional spritesheets for the static-y guy probably have to do with unlocking characters, and attempting to use a locked character, since both of those have animations in game.
i am neither good nor big into rhythm games, but this game is oozing so much style and fun that I probably will skin to much time into is as soon as I can play it on my steam deck
Week 4 also gets new background graphics but only in the erect remixes since there isn't any week 4 Pico mixes
9:28 this graphic of the camera on boyfriend could be seen in your Pico Update (part 1) video, in the chart editor on the top right. Doesn't that mean it is already used in the game?
3:37 that seems more like a co op vs match concept mockup rather than just a character select screen as well!
While I do think Tankman might be a playable character, I'm pretty sure Daddy Dearest is just a placeholder as not only is it covering BF's picture (Probably because they haven't made a pixel graphic for BF yet) but also the icon for both Daddy Dearest and Tankman are just the ones seen in freeplay. BTW, I really want GF to be a playable character for some reason
8:24 I discovered this when I was trying to access a nightmare song in pico mode, great to see it here.
awesome to see more unused fnf stuff! (and possibly confirmed playable characters 👀)
I JUST FINISHED DIGGING AROUND THE FILES MYSELF THEN GET READY TO POST AND THEN SEE YOU MADE A VID
First Pizza Tower had The Noise Update and now Friday Night Funkin has the Pico Update
i mean, tankman's currently unused miss animations strongly suggest he's gonna be playable too-
It makes total sense for Tankman to be the next playable character considering he's literally the face of Newgrounds
Fun fact picos miss sprites actually existed in an old version when you press 7 and change to him
Now the “uh oh” graffic is actually used on pico during the song pico
the static guy might be a villain who destroys reality. It's a joke
Thank you for saving me, Tetra. fr tho, amazing video, I love when people dig through this game. it's super interesting. lol.
Since Tankman is a playable character on the editor (just like pico was), it's most likely that Tankman will come out on the character menu
It was actually confirmed in November 2020 that Pico, Tankman, Cassette Girl, and Hank J. Wimbleton were getting full playability
Oh I'm well aware of that, but since then it's also been confirmed that Cassette Girl isn't going to be added anymore apparently so that isn't 100% anymore
I'm pretty sure the daddy dearest icon being used at 1:40 was used as boyfriend's icon as a placeholder since he didn't have one at the time.
Also Tankman is confirmed still as a playable unlike Cassette Girl and Hank.
hank is still confirmed to be in the game at least. So i'm sure he's still a playable character.
some of these are used in the chart editor, accessible in-game by pressing ~ or ` on the main menu(where you pick story mode/freeplay/options..), and picking the "chart editor" option
edit: the reason you didn't see them is because you need to actually place the events, or load a song with events already in it lmao
The legend is back!
If they are still going with that playable characters image, then we know for sure Tankman will be playable, as well as Hank and Cassette Girl. One might be for GF, since she is the 2nd important face close to BF, so it would been illogical to not add her, and 2 guesses I have for some of the spots are Henry Stickmin and Edd from Eddsworld, since both of them originate from newgrounds and are important characters in the community.
Bro why doesn’t anyone point out that week 4 got a overhaul as well for the remixes 😭 it looks so pretty now
2:33 wouldn't this be a concept for a character select in a multiplayer battle?
They are updating it consistently and thats crazy
Honestly, i think the image for playable characters that had like 20 icons was a concept art for an online multiplayer mode.
9:04
That scroll one can be seen in game. It's in the chart menu. Click with the middle part of your mouse (don't know what it's called) and there it is.
3:30 im willing to bet once the game is fully done with Boyfriends week and story. The FNF team will then focus on adding the other characters since with the game fully released it will give everyone in the community enough time to enjoy the full game while the devs of fnf focus on adding extra side dishes to the course
Actually, the large version of randomchill (now named locked chill) is the one used, as it includes ALL animations, including locked turning into pico.
I was waiting for this. I know that you’re gonna do this.
Most likely the next playable characters to be added are tankman, daddy dearest, and possibly also hank j wimbleton
I think Tankman is incredibly likely considering he's the Newgrounds mascot. Dearest I could believe but I wouldn't be surprised if he didn't get added. His assets tended to be placeholders, didn't they? I might be remembering things wrong. I hope Girlfriend gets a character select slot, personally. Seeing her sing in mods like Mario's Madness just makes her feel...possible, I guess? Like there's a want for that outside of just me. It's hard to explain. Maybe a song set where Boyfriend is the opponent too, considering Pico being added makes it so player characters can potentially encounter themselves. I saw Isaac in the background of Pico's winter stages, and that game's sense of humor would be right at home in this game, so if he doesn't get added Imma be like "What the funk?"
When are you gonna make a funko fuzion unused video? Becuase I heard that apparently there is an eddy boss fight of nightmare endo.
there was a rocket launcher asset (from one of pico's final score anims) that you might wanna check out :)
Tankman was confirmed by the devs on twitter to be the next character to be added. So i think thats it
I wonder if the dev will use this as a opportunity to include some fangame characters as playable characters
i was waiting for tetrabitgaming to drop this one 2 days ago
if i were to guess the next few playable characters, they would be tankman, daddy dearest, and the 5 supporters who were going to get their own playable characters
The kickstarter characters are something different according to PA.
Also, Hank is confirmed to be in the game still, thus its likely he is still planned to be a playable character.
