Appearance In Games
FNaF VR: Help Wanted
A picture of Scott appears in the introductory portion of Five Nights at Freddy's VR: Help Wanted, representing the "rogue indie developer" who supposedly released games that tarnished Fazbear Entertainment, but according to Tape Girl, Fazbear Entertainment had hired the developer all along as part of a coverup.
Scott confirmed on Reddit that while his photo is used for the indie developer, he is not intended to be Scott.
Freddy In Space 2
There are a few characters in Freddy In Space 2 that represents Scott Cawthon, these being L.O.L.Z.H.A.X, Animdude: The Revenge, and S. Cotton. L.O.L.Z.H.A.X's name is a reference to Scott's old account that he used to post troll games, "lolz_hax".
Animdude: The Revenge is based on Scott's avatar, and his name is based on Scott's username on several social medias. S. Cotton is based on his appearance in Help Wanted and the final boss to the original Freddy in Space from FNaF World. The name of the character is based on Scott's favorite misspelling of his name, "Sock Cotton".
Security Breach: Fury's Rage
Scott Cawthon plays a vital role in the plot of Fury's Rage, as the story is about him making a game out of fear of the fans burning his house down when hearing Security Breach would be delayed to late 2021. He takes place in both the intro cutscene and the secret ending cutscene, as well as being a spawnable ally in the form of his usual persona, Animdude.
Trivia
- The first game he worked with someone other than Leon Riskin was FNaF World.
- The second was Sister Location, the third was Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria Simulator, and so on.
- Scott is the voice actor for both Phone Guy and Phone Dude.
- While most games have him as Animdude or a head in a jar, Security Breach: Fury's Rage is the first game to have Scott in the game as himself.
- This is mostly due to the story of the game itself.
