Shark girl attacks you if you spam the plushie too much or if you use plushie while her door is opened, just make sure to not spam it too mcuh and chech if her door is open
okay so i did beat level 12 and yes i do have all imagery in the gallery i guess thoses are the dvd's but is the vhs tape have to be found in the same way and their really well hiden or its a project for the futur updates? ^^ oh and by testing it i realise sometimes the door seems to lag when you come to close them rapidly ^^
Is there any way to access the gallery? I've picked up various tapes in the different rooms, but it isn't accessible via the main menu (the option's greyed out), nor do I see any other option in-game. Am I missing something? Do I need to beat the entire thing to get it?
I believe the gallery only open up if you find a collectable for the gallery. During the game there are between 0 to 2 magazine randomly located in the rooms. If you collect these and finish the night you should get the gallery
There are VHS tapes randomly hidden in rooms, 0 to 3 per night, grab them and if you win that night, you should get that many unlocks. Can replay earlier nights for an easier time getting the unlocks.
bro yall crazy that 12th night took everything in me to beat XD. needless to say i did habe fun and the difficulty spike was pretty dope,keep up the good work yall lmao.
This game sucks. Don't waste a second on it. The gameplay is utter shit, nothing is explained, the gallery content is shit because it's a all short ass loops with no audio or cumshots/creampies, the game over scenes suffer the same thing except they get audio. Just look up "Sexy moans" and you'll find better porn.
I agree that the game doesnt explain anything well if at all, But The gameplay is fine. Maybe you just suck at it. Also this isnt some jack off game. Its an actual game so If your playing this for porn you're playing the wrong game
I think one of the best things they could add, for the defeat sequence by a girl, is a sort of interact with meter for orgasm, and additional animations from the girl for when you do (to celebrate their victory over you).
install the new version and let the new replace the old version when you extract the zip file that update auto but do that at the same file where you put your game
Beat the game was pretty fun, can't wait for arcade and the gatcha stuff, hopefully those systems come back as the old build was awesome with the points and stuff, it made some longevity.
so far so great! really challenging i notice theres many tapes! heres my questions ^^ is that pile of vhs tapes are the next chapter? also is the point systems to customize the dest will be back? and god dayum how many level in the first night XD i'm like at 15 and its still going! keep up the great works team!! can't wait for the next!
Thank you, but something concerns me! Are you picking up DVD's or VCR tapes?
The reason I ask is because the current game has a boss fight on night 12, as such you shouldn't be able to access levels beyond 12. Which means you might be playing a really old build. Either way I am glad you are enjoying it however!
I think the randomizer is too overbearing for the control panel. I've tried many combinations pressing the buttons in the order of the ones it highlights or avoiding those altogether. Either way, I guess I get super unlucky and keep pressing the wrong order. It leads to pretty aggravating situations because it's sometimes the one task that keeps my status light from going red.
Another quality-of-life improvement to add might be to have the door stay open after Misty bangs on the window and runs back to her room. With how often she runs in and out, it might make more sense to just leave the door in that hallway open until the player checks it and closes it themselves. At that point, reward the player with slightly more time before she returns?
Have an odd problem with the UI since my update to U0.1.2; Enter key is recognized at the "Press any key to start" screen, but once I am at the main screen with the gallery and settings, the only keys or inputs recognized are left or right. Cannot use enter key to progress, and if I use the mouse keys, the icon shrinks as appropriate, but nothing further happens. Can't play, change settings, can only exit with Alt+F4.
thats exactly what i did lol. yall always leave little things that are abusable. Like when yall had the gatcha machine i found a glitch that let me inf farm them without doing anything. honestly i like that aspect of your games. and the asserting dominance poppi will never die. (if i can recreate the glitch i can show yall. just have to remember how. it has been about a year)
Yeah all you have to do is watch her on the camera every spare second you get when maggie's not in the way, you can distract her with the microwave, and listen to the sound queues for your windows and the power and the gas. I survived night 12 but you don't get anything either form the gallery or unlocking arcade mode which is kind of dissapointing. :(
P.S. Also, no butts for the H-scenes is also disspointing. :(
Thank you! but now I have a new issue where Sammy will randomly come up and block my screen even though I do close her out How do I get rid of her when she blocks my screen?
So far, I really enjoy the game. It needs real focus and timing, I'm loving the difficulty.
Only problem is, that some mechanics are just unfair. For example, the egypt-styled girl will disable cameras and there is no way to fix that. If she is in on one of the camers with the switch or the valve, your basically screwed.
As of the current state, its very RNG-based, which does not fit well with a fnaf fan game.
But everything else seems cool so far. Im looking foward to the next levels after the office.
You know she won't break the camera if you look at her for a few seconds right? There is a heart above her head that fills up to let you know when you're done.
Duh. The thing is, that you have to do things so fast, that you sometimes have to close cameras because there is someone at your door or else. You often don't have enough time too look at the cameras long enough (for RNG-based reasons)
You didn't mention any thing about it in your first comment so I was just making sure, no need to be rude just trying to help.
Also if you're still having trouble you can just leave both doors close and all you have to do is use the plush a lot more often, then you don't have to worry about Sammy, Poppi, Nile, and/or the shark girl killing you and you can focus on repairing, waiting on Nile's heart to fill up, and getting the gallery stuff in between using the plush.
That's how I beat it anyway.
P.S. None of this is to say the RNG is fair or good, the entire point of this strategy is to avoid most of the RNG issues.
you forgot about that thing in the hallway that slowly reaches your office, as well as Ari who puts you down like a dog because you're panting and panicking a lot, she doesn't like dirty dogs
Every character on that list (Sammy, Poppi, Nile, and the shark girl) is a character that you don't have to worry about if both doors are closed, that is what the list was about, why would I put Ari and the slomo girl in that list if both could still get you even if the doors are closed? Of course I didn't mention them in the comment about what you didn't need to worry about.
You need to worry about them!
P.S. I literally said in the first line of that strategy "all you have to do is use the plush a lot more often" if you are doing it enough Ari can't kill you and regarding the slomo girl, with most of the other girls unable to get to you with the doors closed you can spend more time on cams watching her which will keep her from getting to you.
you can beat the night with 1 system permanently unreachable, however if have 2 important cameras that are unreachable, the likely-hood of the other 2 systems failing at exactly around the same time are higher so you can game over within 15 seconds of 2 things being unreachable, either that or as you have 2 unreachable items they just drain the power over time.
Does anyone know what the actual in-game story or lore for this game is? The one poster in the security room looks like its warning us against sex with the girls (yeah I'm definitely ignoring that) but it doesn't say why. Is it actually dangerous to do so or is it just management not wanting the employees to "sample the inventory"? Are the girls real (and if they are, what are they doing here) or are they just really convincing robots?
well i know some things for example a investigator died cause his waist was broken probably cause poppi rided him till dead theres some lore a guy posted in the dis
ngl I played Fap Nights at Frenni's and most of the game mechanics in essense transfer over to this game in a weird way but cool way. Chiku is like Maddie, you use a microwave for both of them to distract them. Fexa is like that thing in the hallway and Nile. Both of the games say it's forbidden to have intercourse with the animatronics/animals only difference is one game has animatronics, the other just has superstars.
Ari is bloody broken. She constantly opens doors (something that should not happen in a room that can LOCK FROM THE INSIDE) causing a failure of a night. hell, on night 4 it is damn near terrible as you can be down to the wire and suddenly ARI OPENS THE DAMN DOOR!
I know this is based off fnaf, but lest my memormy escapes me, none of the animatroncs could actually open a door unless the power fails.
In the first fnaf which had electronic doors they would automatically open when you run out of power. Misty on the can also force the door open if you close it later then you should but soon enough to not let her in which leads to a quick minigame of forcing the door closed. I stand corrected Ari can force open the doors.
i mean if they didnt make ari or maddie you would have the door closed the whole night so yeah.... i get they should make forced game over more rare (even tho i just got one once) but they shouldnt make that they dont open doors cause then you just never open them
Ari outside night 12 will protect you from others entering the room when she is in the doorway assuming you have a high sanity otherwise its game over from her. Maddie who shows up on night 5 and beyond will open the door and let the others in but wont actually end the game herself
Could someone who has already played the entire game give me the save file? (by the way it is in the locallow folder on your pc)example C:\Users\user\AppData\LocalLow\MonsterBox\IN HEAT
Hey man think I could get save as well? I dont think itchio has private messaging system so you would have to post it here or something else like discord if you want to keep it private
I'm loving the remake of the game. Had it purchased since the end of 2022. My only gripe is how insanely difficult the game is. I'm on Night 4 and simply cannot make progress at all as the girls are already at my doors before I can pull up the cameras in many cases. I hope it gets fixed soon as I love the gameplay improvements otherwise.
Is there still an Unlock All feature for the Gallery? If so, how do I use it?
theres no unlock gallery and about the difficulty they already said will fix that, but i guess will end up being a hard game cause even if they make this level easier theres still more levels to go xD
It is Ari. She can open the doors from the outside, screwing the night up completely. had it happen 6 times in a row when the night was almost over just to see her pissed off face opening the door and letting the others in.
Honestly, stellar game so far; IMO it's worth it for the gameplay alone! Figuring out all of the character mechanics and how they interact with eachother is fun, and the difficulty scale seems pretty balanced. (Played all 12 levels)
FEEDBACK (as of U0.1.1):
Gameplay feels a little "left door heavy" because of Misty. Not a huge deal, but that door is often constantly closed on later nights.
Would like to be able to see the current night on the black screen just before the start of the level.
There's a quirk with Nile that I would like to see modified: if she gets a movement opportunity into the room you're looking at just before you change cams it feels a little BS.
The lovescares are great, but I feel like it would be nice to have some reward for playing well instead of just rewarding a failure. Maybe something a little more interactive with an 'ending'?
The characters just pop-in to their locations near the doors. I think this looks fine when they teleport between cams, but having an intermediary animation when they go between the hall door, window, and leaving would make it feel a little less jerky and fit in with the other well-crafted animations.
The current gallery is good, but it would be a nice-to-have for there to be an actual gallery for the character models in a pose with bits of information about them.
Would like for the red wolf (don't know her name) to be present more. Wasn't a threat until night 12.
FEEDBACK (less-serious):
Would love to be able to boop Sammy's nose when she's blocking you in the office.
Have the glass fog up from their breath when they're pressed up against it
I know it may not happen, but girls that are less thicc af are hot too T_T
I'm currently assuming that "interactive sexytime" is going to be the eventual reward for beating the game. That said in the meantime it would be good if the girls got additional positions when we "lose" from getting caught.

idk what i am doing wrong i keep losing to the shark girl idk how to stop her
Shark girl attacks you if you spam the plushie too much or if you use plushie while her door is opened, just make sure to not spam it too mcuh and chech if her door is open
which is her door?
her door is in the left corridor out of your office. It will sometimes be open and you have to push the button to close it
okay so i did beat level 12 and yes i do have all imagery in the gallery i guess thoses are the dvd's but is the vhs tape have to be found in the same way and their really well hiden or its a project for the futur updates? ^^ oh and by testing it i realise sometimes the door seems to lag when you come to close them rapidly ^^
Did you have the most recent update to the demo (0.1.2)? If so, how did you turn on NSFW?
hello, i have a question , how to buy the early acces on steam??
you can't, early acess is only on itch.io
you can only get the demo and full version when it comes out on steam
Is there any way to access the gallery? I've picked up various tapes in the different rooms, but it isn't accessible via the main menu (the option's greyed out), nor do I see any other option in-game. Am I missing something? Do I need to beat the entire thing to get it?
I'm in the same boat, just wondering if it's something to unlock or if mine's bugged.
Is nsfw turned on in the settings? The gallery won't show unless it's enabled.
Yes it's turned on. I know, because I'm not only seeing them in their sexy outfits, but I'm getting the 'having sex' game overs when they catch me.
::EDIT:: Edit to say that both the 'Arcade Mode' and 'Gallery' options are greyed out if that helps.
finish the first night
I did, I'm on night 7.
I believe the gallery only open up if you find a collectable for the gallery. During the game there are between 0 to 2 magazine randomly located in the rooms. If you collect these and finish the night you should get the gallery
I believe you need to Beat up to night 3 or 4 to unlock the gallery
Like I said, I'm on the seventh night, and still no gallery. If the creators of this game could help me out, here, I'd greatly appreciate it.
There are VHS tapes randomly hidden in rooms, 0 to 3 per night, grab them and if you win that night, you should get that many unlocks. Can replay earlier nights for an easier time getting the unlocks.
I don't know whether I'm getting VHS tapes or DVDs, but I am getting the little things hidden throughout the levels. And still no gallery.
Kinda sad that the game doesn't run in my computer anymore due to the new advanced graphics
if the game updates, do i have to pay for it again?
Nope, every consecutive update is yours after paying. Unless the devs decide to change that, of course.
bro yall crazy that 12th night took everything in me to beat XD. needless to say i did habe fun and the difficulty spike was pretty dope,keep up the good work yall lmao.
What is the last level rn in the game?
12
This game sucks. Don't waste a second on it.

I agree that the game doesnt explain anything well if at all, But The gameplay is fine. Maybe you just suck at it.
Also this isnt some jack off game. Its an actual game so If your playing this for porn you're playing the wrong game
When I try to play it says I cant open the application I play on mac
have the same problem
Play Honeymoon and back on IN HEAT a shock when you play again you discover the game again and you appreciate more than usual lol
I think one of the best things they could add, for the defeat sequence by a girl, is a sort of interact with meter for orgasm, and additional animations from the girl for when you do (to celebrate their victory over you).
I can't finish the night 5 because of an animatronic that always comes at around 6 pm, how do I beat it? Did I missed something??
1. Their not Animatronics
2. What character exactly are you struggling with?
Is it even possible to finish night 6 in office?
I just some times can't even found "broken" stuff
Loving the game but i have a question. How do you update the game?
install the new version and let the new replace the old version when you extract the zip file that update auto but do that at the same file where you put your game

The reason I ask is because the current game has a boss fight on night 12, as such you shouldn't be able to access levels beyond 12. Which means you might be playing a really old build. Either way I am glad you are enjoying it however!
sure am picking vhs got them all! but yeah maybe i'm playing on a older version keep you guys in touch! ^^
Will this ever come out on Android I beg
Let the game come out of EA first. I might be able to hire a secondary company to make an android build since we are inexperienced with mobile games.
I think the randomizer is too overbearing for the control panel. I've tried many combinations pressing the buttons in the order of the ones it highlights or avoiding those altogether. Either way, I guess I get super unlucky and keep pressing the wrong order. It leads to pretty aggravating situations because it's sometimes the one task that keeps my status light from going red.
Another quality-of-life improvement to add might be to have the door stay open after Misty bangs on the window and runs back to her room. With how often she runs in and out, it might make more sense to just leave the door in that hallway open until the player checks it and closes it themselves. At that point, reward the player with slightly more time before she returns?
I mean, the answer to the control panel should be pretty easy to get if you look at the sticky notes on your office wall (also randomized).
Ill relay the Misty idea to the team, I really appreciate the feedback!
Have an odd problem with the UI since my update to U0.1.2; Enter key is recognized at the "Press any key to start" screen, but once I am at the main screen with the gallery and settings, the only keys or inputs recognized are left or right. Cannot use enter key to progress, and if I use the mouse keys, the icon shrinks as appropriate, but nothing further happens. Can't play, change settings, can only exit with Alt+F4.
Ill touch base with the programmer ASAP could you join the Discord to possibly send us some more details?
Discord.gg/monsterbox
I'll be able to touch base around 3 and a half hours from this message. Thanks!
Hello again, I've posted into the bugs section of the discord and will be active for the rest of the night for follow up
someone can give me the old version pls mine don't work
What seems to be the issue! We can definitely give you a build of your choice if you reach out to our email Monsterbox.ent@gmail.com
Do you have to beat the entire night to unlock the tape for the gallery?
Honestly you just need to farm the first levels tapes to complete the gallery.
thats exactly what i did lol. yall always leave little things that are abusable. Like when yall had the gatcha machine i found a glitch that let me inf farm them without doing anything. honestly i like that aspect of your games. and the asserting dominance poppi will never die. (if i can recreate the glitch i can show yall. just have to remember how. it has been about a year)
I keep getting killed by the red Ari what do i do to avoid her?
As far as I know, you will prevent her from moving when you watch her through the cams, though there may be other ways to counter her as well.
Yeah all you have to do is watch her on the camera every spare second you get when maggie's not in the way, you can distract her with the microwave, and listen to the sound queues for your windows and the power and the gas. I survived night 12 but you don't get anything either form the gallery or unlocking arcade mode which is kind of dissapointing. :(
P.S. Also, no butts for the H-scenes is also disspointing. :(
just make another account
then full version on steam?
No démo only
I keep getting Fired, Idk Why?? I don't understand the machanic of the light in the Office going from green to red pls help
You have postit front of you on the wall and this is the order left to right
Thank you! but now I have a new issue where Sammy will randomly come up and block my screen even though I do close her out How do I get rid of her when she blocks my screen?
Press wasd in the office a bunch until she gets dizzy and goes away.
The paid windows version launches gives me 2 logos and stays on a black screen. how do i fix that?
Hey! I also had the same problem. The solution (for me) was to re-extract the game. Hopefully this works!
Sadly it did not i had already tried that as well as deleting and redownloading.
Before extracting the zip, try right clicking it, going to properties, check the box for "Unblock", then apply.
After that unzip it somewhere and see if it runsany better for you.
Another thought is try right clicking the exe and see if you can pick a different display/graphics provider.
Do you use the itch.app? sometimes it corrupts downloads. If this issue persists please contact us on our Discord
Discord.gg/monsterbox
Why the old version crash(INHEAT FIRST NIGHTS FINAL V2) when you want to play ?
doesnt happen to me so idk
doesnt work what ever i do
Probably due to too many resources being used up on execution. It's a big reason we switched to Unity.
ok thx
hey, the osX version (1.1) still doesn't work on my Mac, any solutions??
Hey, I am also on Mac. Can you tell me what happens when you start it? Also, are you using intel or silicon Mac?
So far, I really enjoy the game. It needs real focus and timing, I'm loving the difficulty.
Only problem is, that some mechanics are just unfair. For example, the egypt-styled girl will disable cameras and there is no way to fix that. If she is in on one of the camers with the switch or the valve, your basically screwed.

But everything else seems cool so far. Im looking foward to the next levels after the office.
With Nile you can hold R to repair the cameras, you don't get that option unless you turn on "assist mode" in the setting
Im going to test this later. If this is true, you are the g.
You know she won't break the camera if you look at her for a few seconds right? There is a heart above her head that fills up to let you know when you're done.
Duh. The thing is, that you have to do things so fast, that you sometimes have to close cameras because there is someone at your door or else. You often don't have enough time too look at the cameras long enough (for RNG-based reasons)

We went ahead and added a bit more safeguards to the Nile system. Try it out, it should fix some issues!
you can beat the night with 1 system permanently unreachable, however if have 2 important cameras that are unreachable, the likely-hood of the other 2 systems failing at exactly around the same time are higher so you can game over within 15 seconds of 2 things being unreachable, either that or as you have 2 unreachable items they just drain the power over time.

Is there an easier way to play and unlock stuff? I just wanna fap
Could someone who has already played the entire game give me the save file? (by the way it is in the locallow folder on your pc)example C:\Users\user\AppData\LocalLow\MonsterBox\IN HEAT
Yeah I can, but how do you want me to send it?
also the game over animations are not available in the gallery so you'll still need to play to see every thing.
p.s. I might not see your reply for a while
oh thank you, can you send it to me through a mediafire link?
Ok ill uploaded it there, but is it ok for me to share links in the comments like this? I don't want MonsterBox and/or Itch mad at me.
Is there a way for me to send it privately?
Hey man think I could get save as well? I dont think itchio has private messaging system so you would have to post it here or something else like discord if you want to keep it private
send me a friend request on discord, I have the same name there.
mm discord my user is: jstt_
does the demo have nsfw scenes
Nope you can see they said that demo will be always SFW and the NSFW is in the build
