When he came to the studio, Zhong Ming sat in front of the computer without saying a word, and began to tap the keyboard and write the design concept draft.

Zhong Ming's mind is filled with a lot of horror games from his previous life, but they are far from what he wants to do this time, and he can't use them.

In the previous life, there were also some games that reflected similar themes, but they were basically text-based adventure games, such as "The Secret Story of Fence Village", which did not quite meet Zhong Ming's needs.

So, what Zhong Ming wants to do this time is actually an original game that starts almost from scratch.

Horror is not the first element, there may be no zombies in this game, there will be no mutated creatures, and it will not scare players like many horror games.

However, as long as the real experience of all the children in it is perfectly reproduced, the game is terrifying enough.

Zhong Ming writes very quickly, and he doesn't even need a universal retriever, the scenes that happened in his previous life, the scenes in the documentary, he still remembers it vividly.

Group A reception.

Add circles.

Treat.

and Professor Yang's smiling face.

All of these are not deliberately remembered by Zhong Ming, but after reading them once, they will never forget them.

For the whole afternoon, Zhong Ming sat motionless in front of the computer and wrote the basic story line of the entire game clearly.

Today, Jia Jia and Xiao Mu have gone back to rest, so Zhong Ming plans to tell you about the production of this new game tomorrow.

Moreover, Zhong Ming himself felt that something was missing from this story.

Probably lacking that immersive sense of reality, after all, Zhong Ming himself has never been in, but through some video materials, he can't understand the despair and fear of the children inside.

It seems that this design draft needs to be improved.

But before that, Zhong Ming has to arrange some other things, such as borrowing a motion capture studio from Yang Chengye's side.

At present, there is no way to do motion collection on the side of Shimmer Studio, and all the actions in the previous "Zodiac Guardian" are hand-tuned by action artists.

But now this game, if you rely on hand tuning, the workload is completely unable to keep up, and you have to capture it with movements and expressions.

Zhong Ming called Yang Chengye and briefly mentioned his request, to make a new game, he had to borrow the motion capture studio of Zhihuan Technology, of course, the money was paid, just hoping to give a discount.

Yang Chengye readily agreed, Zhihuan Technology has indeed not been using this studio recently, and the related equipment is also idle, so it doesn't matter if you borrow it for a few days.

After hanging up the phone, Zhong Ming thought: "I have to set up a motion capture studio by myself as soon as possible, and I should use it often in the future." ”

This time, in terms of the size of the game, the motion capture content needed is actually not much, but the hand-adjusted action is definitely not good, because Zhong Ming has to catch up with the schedule, and the sooner this game is launched, the better.

When you make more big games in the future, you have to have your own motion capture studio.

……

Back at home, Zhong Ming chatted with Wei Yong for a long time and inquired about a lot of in-depth content in this institution.

Of course, the rules and names are different for each of these institutions, but they are essentially the same. When Zhong Ming makes the game, he will not completely follow these ready-made things, but will do some reprocessing on the basis of retaining the kernel.

Talking to Wei Yong about these things is mainly to bring into the inner world of those victims and experience their desperate feelings.

After chatting, Zhong Ming comforted Wei Yong and asked him to play with himself in the living room, and then went into his bedroom.

Inside Zhong Ming's bracelet, there are also powerful sedative potions, and a short passage capsule.

A brief passage through the capsule allows him to briefly travel to a dream, and this dream is the world he chooses to make up in his imagination.

It's called the "Cyber Ring Center".

Zhong Ming also took a powerful tranquilizer in advance, saving himself from being woken up in a dream. If you wake up in the middle of the game, you won't be able to see the second half.

……

……

Three hours later, Zhong Ming opened his eyes violently.

He sat up from the bed at once, gasping for air.

Although he had already taken a powerful tranquilizer, he would not feel terrible, but the scenes in the dream still made him feel seriously unwell.

This discomfort is not fear, but a hatred from the bottom of the heart!

"It feels right."

It was already past 11 o'clock in the evening, Zhong Ming turned over and got out of bed, took his laptop, and began to type on the keyboard, perfecting the design draft he had written during the day.

Before, many concepts were just a vague concept in my mind, but now, these concepts have all become concrete content, so that Zhong Ming can completely empathize with him, and when he writes about it, he has a completely different feeling.

Two identities and two intertwined story lines were screwed together by Zhong Ming at this time.

There are also many bad endings and heart-wrenching endings, all of which are quickly filled.

Writing until the early hours of the morning, Zhong Ming looked at the final finished design draft and finally nodded.

"That's it."

……

The next day.

Zhong Ming came to the studio and called everyone in the R&D team to the conference room for a meeting.

"The next game we're going to make is called ...... 'The Devil in the World.'"

"It's a ...... It's not a horror game, it's not an interactive movie game, it's not a text adventure game, it's probably ...... It can be called a charity game. ”

These two sentences, as well as the name of the game, make many people confused.

Can't even define the genre? That's too much, isn't it??

The boss's operation is really getting more and more incomprehensible!

Zhong Ming began to continue to introduce all aspects of the game.

The plot of the game.

Basic settings.

Gameplay details.

Each outcome orientation and necessary conditions......

After listening to Zhong Ming's narration, everyone was even more dumbfounded.

It doesn't make sense, it doesn't make sense at all!

Fu Xing'an was the first to raise his hand and ask: "Boss...... This game...... To be honest, I don't have a problem with the gameplay, the only problem is the plot and infrastructure, isn't it too? I can already imagine the player's evaluation after the game is put on the shelves, and I guess many people will say that this game is nondescript......"

Zhong Ming nodded: "Then how do you think it should be changed?" ”

Fu Xingan thought for a while: "I think the current plot is a bit unopposed. If you want to say that it is linked to reality, there must be no such thing in reality, and even if there is, it is estimated that it is not as scary as you say, and even if it is made, it is estimated that it is too bland, and there is no gameplay; Or maybe we do something a little more terrifying and surreal, such as a haunted mysterious institution, and the whole scene is also the kind of abandoned building that has been sealed for a long time, maybe from the perspective of the game, it will be better. ”

On the other side, Jia Jia couldn't help but interject: "However, this is what really happens in reality." ”

Fu Xingan was stunned: "??? ”

Jia Jia sighed and said, "We don't want this to be true either, but yesterday I went to Guanghua City with the boss and really found that these institutions exist. Moreover, all the plots in this game, except for the part where 'hallucinations caused by long-term feeding of ** god drugs', are all real and not mixed with water at all. Even now, if you search the Internet, you can find a whole bunch of similar institutions. ”

Fu Xing'an froze, his eyes widened, and he didn't know what to say.

Zhong Ming cut the screen, and many online posts, materials, and interviews with some reporters were all displayed on the projection screen.

The narration of many victims, although the text is immature, is only the text content, which is shocking enough!

At this time, Fu Xingan was completely speechless.

When he saw Zhong Ming's design draft, he instinctively felt that this plot was too ridiculous, between reality and fantasy. It's said that it's a fantasy horror game, but it's a little bit less interesting, there is no supernatural phenomenon, and the horror effect must be greatly reduced; Is it realistic? Fu Xing'an 10,000 did not believe it.

In reality, how could there be such a tragic place?

But now Zhong Ming has searched for these materials, and even some interviews with reporters, and the descriptions of the victims in them make him have to believe it.

Zhou Sen was also stunned: "No...... It can't be, if that's the case, these institutions haven't been banned or shut down? No one reported it to the Sheriff's Office?? ”

Zhong Ming shook his head: "This is the most bizarre place, there must be many children who have tried to find the Public Security Department, but to no avail." It's not that the public security department is inactive, but that these parents have signed an agreement with the agency to transfer the custody of the child, that is, no matter what these institutions do, it is an act authorized by the parents, not to mention that their means are very hidden, and there is no scar on the child's body, and it is impossible to convict and ban it. Of course, the most important thing is that this matter is not paid enough attention, the hot spot is not high, and there is no widespread attention, so they can continue to get away with it. ”

In the conference room, there was an uproar!

At first, many people didn't think much of it when they saw this design concept draft, thinking that it was just a fictional story.

However, now it seems that this is not fiction at all, and all the plots in it seem to have real plots as prototypes!

It's just that these messages are all buried on the Internet and don't attract much attention at all!

Now many people understand why Zhong Ming defines this game as a "public welfare game", just like a "public service announcement". Although "Demons in the World" is a game, it is not aimed at making money, but with a special purpose, which is to expose this event to everyone and make it a hot topic for everyone to pay attention to and discuss!

"Boss, I'm ...... There are different opinions. Wu Mingliang raised his hand and said.

Zhong Ming nodded: "You say." ”

"We do this...... Does it make sense? ”

Zhong Ming was silent.

Many people may have to ask the same question as Wu Mingming, does it make sense to do this?

We're just a game studio with two dozen employees.

Even if this game is made, it is nothing more than to make many players as indignant as us, maybe lucky, can get some attention, but many media have done interviews before, and many children have gone out to report to the Public Security Department, but these institutions are still alive and well, so how much of a role can we play in making this game out of our own pockets?

Zhong Ming looked at everyone: "What is the name of our studio?" ”

"Shimmer Studios."

"The reason why it's called Shimmer Studio is because there is a point of heat, and a point of light. If you can do things, you can do things, and if you can speak out, you can't continue to be silent after knowing all this, and continue to have nothing to do with yourself. ”

Wu Mingliang bit his lip and nodded.

Others, there is nothing to say.

Indeed, perhaps in terms of the influence of Shimmer Studios now, even if such a game is made, it will not play a big role.

However, there are some things that someone has to do.

Even a little firefly in the dark night is better than a pitch black.

What's more, it is precisely because Shimmer Studio has not yet become a world giant with huge influence that it makes sense to do these things.

If one day, Shimmer Studio becomes a giant in Ming'an City and becomes a big taxpayer, Zhong Ming and the mayor often talk about wine, and find out this problem, just one sentence can let millions of players around the world know that at that time, will the voice be as precious as it is now?

Not necessarily.

Since it has already been encountered, it is impossible to remain silent, this is Zhong Ming's attitude.

……

The development progress this time is only two weeks.

A little rushed, but after estimating the workload, Zhong Ming felt that it should be completed on time.

First of all, the plot content of the game itself is not very long, and for many players, the effective game time is only 3~4 hours, which is much lower than the general regular game time. Secondly, the amount of resources and materials required for the game itself is not large, it is just a reconstruction of a "network ring center", and there are only five or six key characters who appear, and most of the others are dragon sets, all of which are violent receptions or indifferent "allies" in the network ring center.

The actions are all completed in the motion capture studio of Zhihuan Technology, and the professional motion capture actors contacted by Zhihuan Technology, and the progress will be very fast.

However, to everyone's surprise, this time Zhong Ming was almost every detail, and all aspects were taken care of by himself!

Original art of the character.

Architectural model construction of the entire building.

Or even the actions of everyone at the time of "healing".

Zhong Ming gave everything one by one.

The original painting of the character, the bell rings out.

The floor plan of the building, painted by the bell.

Even how the protagonist struggles when he is "treated", how Professor Yang "treats" him, and how others hold him down...... and so on, Zhong Ming also arranged some details clearly!

Obviously, this is completely different from the previous state of Zhong Ming's work.

When he was working on "Zodiac Guardian" before, although Zhong Ming gave most of the concept design, many of the content still allowed some free play in art and design. But this time, Zhong Ming basically took it all over.

Because, he knew that there was probably no one in the entire studio who could know what it was like in the whole studio except himself.

Only by grasping these details yourself can you ensure that the game is absolutely real after it is made!
