This game is not what it seems...

Inspired by creepy/bad edutainment games from the 90s, (Sonic's Schoolhouse, I.M. Meen, 3D Dinosaur Adventure: Save the Dinosaurs), Baldi's Basics is a meta horror game that's really weird, with no real educational value to be found. Collect all 7 of the notebooks and escape the school, all while avoiding Baldi. Baldi has many friends in the school that will slow down your progress and put you at risk of being caught, so learn how each character works and how you can avoid their attention. Find and use items to your advantage. Oh, and finally, try not to get the quiz answers wrong... Each wrong answer makes Baldi angrier...

Welcome to Mod Preview of Baldi's Simplified Open Source OVERHAULED!

Baldi's Simplified Open Source OVERHAULED is a survival horror stealth game that parodies cheap 90's edutainment and never takes itself too seriously. Explore Baldi's schoolhouse and try to find all 7 notebooks, but don't get caught by Baldi! He wants to play hide-and-seek, but something... Isn't right. Luckily you have a slew of items you can find and use to your advantage, but Baldi also has friends who can cause problems for you if you're not careful. And remember, Baldi hears every noise you make, so do what you can to stay quiet!

Controls

Use the WASD keys to move, and the mouse to turn. Left click or E to open doors and pick up items, right click or Q to use the currently selected item, and scroll wheel to change the currently selected item. Hold down shift to run (Keep an eye on your stamina bar!), and press space bar to quickly look behind you. Escape can be used to pause.

It's finally here!

This newest variant of Simplified is WAY better with actual optimized code, a few Baldi's Basics Plus & Baldi's Basics Classic Remastered features within it, but this newer variant is MAINLY focused on optimizing and refactoring as much of the code as possible, and some sprites are now in sprite sheets too. So now you can make the most dumpster fire Baldi mods of your dreams!
