Even though "Five Nights at Freddy's 3" could be months away, creator Scott Cawthon is doing plenty to gear up excitement for the next installment in the series.

In fact, he's supposedly even gone to the level of leaving hidden messages in his announcements.

It's up to the reader to decide if there is indeed a puzzle in the latest message from Cawthon on the official Steam Greenlight page for "Five Nights at Freddy's 3." Otherwise, the horror game creator did rather blatantly state that the game was in the middle of beta testing and that a new animatronic kept the testers from making it past the second out of five nights.

"PPlus 'he' was much more aggrressiive than I'd annticipated and prevented my testers from ggetting past nightt 2. All in all, however, everrything went very well aand I'm on track to release the game as planned," wrote Cawthon.

Fans are theorizing that the extra letters in his message spell out "My Name is Springtrap," (the aforementioned secret message) but in the very least, the game looks to be a bit more difficult than previous versions.

This speculation about difficulty due to an "aggressive" animatronic can perhaps be supported by the difficulty of Cawthon's fake "Five Nights at Freddy's 3" that he also released last weekend. Although it's a simple side-scroll game, it's about as difficult as "Flappy Bird" according to Kotaku.

"Five Nights at Freddy's 3" is described on Steam as follows:

"Thirty years after Freddy Fazbear's Pizza closed its doors, the events that took place there have become nothing more than a rumor and a childhood memory, but the owners of "Fazbear's Fright: The Horror Attraction" are determined to revive the legend and make the experience as authentic as possible for patrons, going to great lengths to find anything that might have survived decades of neglect and ruin.

At first there were only empty shells, a hand, a hook, an old paper-plate doll, but then a remarkable discovery was made...

The attraction now has one animatronic."
