Chapter 429: Prove Your Worth (1st Update)

At the end of the half-hour demo presentation, Fang Cheng gave all his colleagues time to think about what the game could do.

During the meeting, Huang Ping's performance made him quite satisfied.

As the game became more and more, Fang Cheng felt that his understanding of the game was getting deeper and deeper.

As early as primitive societies, human children were playing different games, playing the role of hunting dogs, prey and hunters, through this division of labor to simulate hunting behavior, and in the process learn hunting skills, so that they can improve their survival and success rate in formal hunting.

And in this process, the learning efficiency brought by fear is undoubtedly the highest.

The thousands of teachings of the elders are not as good as the wounds caused by a mistake by their peers, and this process will make these newborn children really understand what can and cannot be done.

And if you can overcome fear, then it will also make people's minds get a great boost, and people can get a great growth.

This kind of growth is gratifying, pleasant, and every time you grow, you can go to the next level, and this is also the emotion that Fangcheng hopes players can feel.

Facing fear, and then overcoming fear, is the emotion that Fang Cheng wants players to feel in this game.

Although he already had his own ideas, Fang Cheng knew that he had too many Dao enemies, and there were a bunch of them in his studio.

Therefore, knowing their ideas in advance, and then absorbing and integrating them in the process of making the game, and making it more perfect, is Fang Cheng's intention to make everyone think about this problem.

Drinking tea, Fang Cheng looked at the colleagues who were thinking in front of him and showed a satisfied smile.

Unlike Fang Cheng's comfort, Huang Ping had not yet come back to his senses at this time.

In the demo shown by Fang Cheng, the images of those monsters are too terrifying, and the most terrifying nightmares he has ever had may not be one percent of the horror of those monsters.

He hadn't seen the demons in hell, but after seeing them, he believed that the real hell might be like that.

God knows where the boss got the painter to depict the real hell scene.

Half an hour later, Huang Ping, who felt better, turned on the computer and began to look for information.

However, he didn't go to watch any horror movies or horror games, but opened Station B, jumped to the animal circle, and then opened the cats to watch.

The cute cat finally eased his nervousness, and looking at the others, they also began to watch the decompression films, proving that he was not the only one who was scared.

But Lin Nan on the opposite side kept typing, and it seemed that the previous demo did not have much impact on her, but inspired her and wrote the plan.

"Lin Nan, aren't you afraid?" Huang Ping asked suspiciously.

"It's, it's okay." Lin Nan whispered, "I was scared at first, after all, the monsters inside are really terrifying." But after watching it for a long time, I feel like I'm used to it. ”

“…… Talent. ”

Ask Lin Nan to take a screenshot of the game and send it to himself, Huang Ping will look at the picture for a while and then go back to watch the cat, and he will not continue to watch the demo until he is almost there.

Through this desensitization therapy, he slowly got used to the graphics in the game, and then began to think about what type of game this demo could develop.

A niche can be made into a horror puzzle game, where players struggle to survive in a world full of monsters, little by little, looking for a way to escape here.

It's also a good idea to make a first-person horror shooter, and it's also a good idea to give the player a gun to roam through a world full of ghosts.

But I always feel that doing so seems to be a bit too wasteful of this picture.

Good graphics are an essential part of the game, but if the gameplay or other settings can't keep up with the game's graphics, then it's better to lower the game's graphics and force the graphics to match the gameplay.

After all, games are the industry that is most in line with the barrel theory, and the art, plot, gameplay, feel, and music and sound effects cooperate with each other.

Trade-offs are also part of making a game.

However, Huang Ping didn't want to let himself become a shortcoming in this game, after all, in his opinion, this game has the potential to become a benchmark for horror games, and it can't be wasted in his own hands.

So, what exactly is the most suitable game theme?

"The boss really has a problem for us." Huang Ping said with a wry smile.

"yes." The monkey held a pen in his mouth and said, "How about a game of meat pigeon?" I've been wanting to play meat pigeons lately, and this genre is also trending right now, so it's a good direction. ”

"The boss never cares about trends." Xiaodouzi said with a pious face, "The boss is the trend." ”

"That's right. So how about making a special game that is a little weirder? ”

Xu Qingling, who was at the workstation, raised his head and said expectantly: "Love cultivation? ”

The monkey almost swallowed the pen.

Huang Ping was also embarrassed, looked at Xu Qingling and said, "That, who would fall in love with these unknown monsters." ”

"If you're looking for excitement, maybe someone will like it."

"Fan Ma Yongjiro doesn't have this ability!"

Looking at the monster pictures on the screen, Huang Ping felt that if there was such a person, it must be a talent who could leave a name in the history of human XP.

A group of people began to get together to discuss, sparks began to collide with each other, and finally several different options were summarized.

For different options, everyone began to discuss further, constantly sorted out the characteristics of each plan, and finally selected a plan that everyone agreed.

Survival of terror.

Players will be born as an ignorant in this strange world, and start their own survival journey in this terrifying and strange world.

And this world has its own terrifying ecosystem, and the types of creatures are unpredictable, but they are definitely not the type players want.

Players can slowly manage their own territory in this terrifying world, communicate with other players to a certain extent, and shelter some homeless people who have lost their territory. However, it should be noted that some terrifying monsters are hiding in these homeless people, ready to devour the place at any time.

This is the plan discussed by Huang Ping and others, and it is also the gameplay that they think is the most suitable for this game style.

There are many types of horror, the powerless one in "Escape", and the "Resident Evil" series is also one.

But the former is too weak, causing the player's first reaction when they see the monster is not to fight, but to run away.

The latter is a big deal, which makes the game's horror atmosphere a little lower.

And the kind of game that hangs by a thread, makes players always feel like they can do something to improve, but always makes people nervous, is the most suitable gameplay for this picture.

Seeing the plan provided by Huang Ping and others, Fang Cheng closed his eyes and thought for a moment.

A weak mortal has come to the land of reincarnation, and the monsters around him can tear him apart at any time, and all kinds of bizarre events emerge one after another, keeping him in a state of fear.

But every time he survives, he gains some knowledge that allows him to grow and start tackling the next challenge.

This feeling......

Yes, there can be.

With a mortal body, challenge the horror ecology here, and then slowly find a way to survive, this game is really good.

So, he said happily: "Yes, let's go in this direction." After the completion of the project, how about inviting everyone to travel as a group? ”

Huang Ping's expression immediately became extremely exciting.

"Boss, if you don't want to finish the game, please tell me."

"Huh?"

Watching the sullen Huang Ping leave, Fang Cheng opened the webpage and found that the good boss mentioned on B was like this.

"B doesn't work anymore, do you want three squirrels to make a similar website?"

This time, Fang Cheng gave his colleagues a great deal of autonomy.

His Dao heart had already been filled several times, and although it was not yet complete, some of the practices could be so dead without having to do it.

And Huang Ping is growing up well now, some things can already be done for them to help him, and he can better check and fill in the gaps, so as not to make any moths out of the player.

However, even so, he was not very reassured.

Players are inherently rebellious, and even the most docile players can't resist the urge to die in the game.

So, you have to dig a pit.

He needs to dig some paradoxical pits in this game, so that players will think they have found easter eggs every time they find them, and then continue to play as they want.

In this way, this is a duel between him and the players, to see if he has more comprehensive coverage, or if the players' brains are powerful.

Thinking of this, Fang Cheng felt that this process had also become interesting.

While Huang Ping and others continued to improve the game, Fang Cheng was also constantly making various arrangements, striving to hide his ideas more secretly, so that players could discover the hidden content more refined.

When the development content of the game reached 80%, Huang Ping made an application, saying that the sound effects and music of the game should be able to be added.

For horror games, music and sound effects can be said to be the second life of the game.

Excellent music can make an otherwise ordinary scene extremely scary, and with the game's current graphics, it is even more powerful.

Fang Cheng felt that this problem was relatively easy to solve, after all, the gods in the Heavenly Dao network world couldn't do anything else, and making music was relatively simple.

"Tian Xuan, please go talk to those people who make music, and let them make some soundtracks."

Tian Xuan nodded vigorously, and then left here with a sense of mission and went to make music.

Watching Tian Xuan leave, Xu Qingling leaned over to Fang Cheng and whispered: "Boss, Tian Xuan can't speak, isn't it a bit bad to let her go to the music?" Otherwise, I'll go, shall I? ”

"It's okay, she'll do it." Fang Cheng said calmly.

After all, she was a believer there, and the task was completed.

However, to Fang Cheng's surprise, he thought it was a simple task, but he almost didn't complete it.

After knowing that Fang Cheng's request was to make music, the gods of the Heavenly Dao Network were very happy.

Da Tianzun finally uses us again!

Within the Heavenly Dao Network, Fang Cheng had become a new faith.

In the new myths and legends, the Great Celestial Venerable is a powerful outer god who can extinguish a large area of the star field with a single glance, and shut up a black hole with a snap of his fingers.

He can even recite pi, and it's upside down!

This powerful outer god has conquered all the local gods, who can only work under her whip, selling their divine power in exchange for a smile from the Great Celestial Venerable.

Although it sounded a bit outrageous, when he found out that the basic content was still true, Fang Cheng ignored this statement and let them continue to say it.

After all, it doesn't matter if he believes in these things, it doesn't matter if he wants to believe it or not, whatever.

For the gods, Fang Cheng is an incomparably thick thigh, hugging it every day can prolong life, maybe when you can rely on it.

Therefore, they were looking forward to the oracle brought by Tian Xuan with great interest, and immediately had countless ideas after learning that the demand this time was to make music, and then they went crazy after playing the game demo brought by Tian Xuan.

"What is this? Why is there such a terrible place! ”

"The boundaries between life and death no longer exist here, and the dead are reborn in an indescribable form. The lifeless piece of flesh is actually reassembling itself, this place is not the place where it should exist at all! ”

"Where is this the world after death? Is this what we have here? If it were true, I'd rather be consumed by Chaos! ”

For the gods here, the polluted land of reincarnation is terrifying.

They are all powerful beings, but because of this, they are more likely than mortals to feel the horrors of this place and the truth behind the land of reincarnation.

The former Lord God of Balance looked at the game screen in front of him, and his facial expression kept twitching.

He thinks he's strong enough, and he's seen a lot of things.

Moreover, the contact with the Iron Guardians taught him a lot of knowledge that he had never been exposed to, and he was confident that he was strong enough.

However, after seeing the graphics of this game, he still felt that he was not strong enough.

Even through the screen, he could feel an evil rush in his face, almost suffocating.

He couldn't bear to turn his face, he found that Tian Xuan was looking at the gods next to him suspiciously, and he didn't seem to be affected.

Looking intently, the God of Balance found that Tian Xuan's body was wrapped with a layer of golden light.

The golden light was dazzling, more brilliant and more sacred than the last time I saw it.

"The reason for the Great Heavenly Venerable?"

With a strong person, even if you don't deliberately study, you will be unconsciously protected by the other party and become a more subtle existence.

Maybe Tian Xuan didn't realize that the long-term relationship has further solidified her essence and become a more unfathomable existence.

"Praise the Great Heavenly Venerable."

Silently praying, the god of balance forced himself to stare at the screen, not a single detail was left behind.

He must prove his worth.
