Takamei felt that the horror game made by Nightlight would definitely be a hit, because it wouldn't be long before players found out that they were not playing games, but strategies that could save their lives.

"If you really don't feel at ease, we can take out Xuanwen's line separately and make a test version after modification to see how the players evaluate it." Gao Ming projected the latest design solutions on the big screen: "I always believed that we were the best team, but the client didn't seem to think so. If we change it according to the customer's request, it will destroy the uniqueness of our game and change the game from 100 points to 60 points, so I suggest letting the market test it. ”

"If you do it again now, it's really too late, so why don't you try it according to the idea of high life?" Wei Dayou took off his headphones and touched Xia Yang with his shoulder: "Old Xia, what do you think?" ”

"Customers play games to make money, and we just need to prove to them that our games can make money." Xia Yang looked at the big screen, he knew the design style of Gao Ming, but he still took a breath after seeing it. Compared to the previous horror game design, Gao Ming has added a lot of details this time, and it feels as if he has really experienced a supernatural event: "How did you come up with these designs?" ”

"I ate cake with my parents for three days, and I realized."

Seeing that the employees were gearing up one by one, ready to do a big vote, Manager Gou stopped talking.

As an old man in the industry, he can see Gao Ming and Xuan Wen's wonderful design, and he also knows that Nightlight is best at thriller games, but he promised customers to do love games to cater to the market.

"Mr. Gou, if you believe me, you will definitely be able to do it this time." Gao Ming stood at the front, Wei Dayou and Xuan Wen were slightly behind, and the three game designers of "old and new" said at the same time: "The beta version only has Xuan Wen's line, and the response is not good, so we will delete it immediately and return to the normal love game."

Under constant persuasion, Manager Gou compromised.

The nightlight studio is like a sophisticated machine running at high speed, but Manager Gou can't be happy at all when he sees all this, the old news about the murder design has been printed in more than a dozen copies, and the photos of the murder scene are plastered all over the studio, almost obscuring the propaganda slogan of the love game.

The staff are also discussing the facts of the case, taking the perspective of the victim, and striving to restore it in the most realistic way.

"Compared with other love games, our advantage is that the heroine is more special." Gao Ming sent his new character to others: "Next, I will make some fine-tuning to ensure that the heroine is closer to the ghost!" Let the player feel like they have really encountered a ghost! ”

"You listen to what you're talking about?" Manager Gou reluctantly spoke.

"That's what we're all about!"

No one can stay calm after a real supernatural event, and Gao Ming seems to be stimulated, and inspiration is surging, and he integrates his own personal experience into the male protagonist of the game.

"The protagonist chooses to run away and kill directly, and if he can't speak, he will die, and he can't resist, what kryptonite props do you want? If you can't make a choice for a minute, you'll die! The difficulty is even higher! ”

"The ghost's appearance is not right, her face is not pale, but flesh and blood are blurred, and the deceased was most likely hung up when she was dying. I need that visual impact! When you wake up in the middle of the night and see a tragic face next to the bed, she is thirty centimeters away from you, and the blood is going to drip into your eyes! ”

Everyone regained their passion, Mr. Gou thought for a long time, silently took out his mobile phone, and made a call to the investor.

"Mr. Zhao, don't worry, the game is going well, but after rigorous market analysis and research, we are ready to add a little change...... Well, just a little bit of innovation. ”

Closing the office door, Manager Gou tries to make the client understand what is about to happen.

At four o'clock in the afternoon,The love game made with the background of the male protagonist's battle royale is preliminarily completed.,With the support of the experience that Gao Ming has exchanged for practice.,This game is not to mention the player.,Even the colleagues in the studio feel crazy.。

"The test version has been basically completed, since we want word-of-mouth fermentation, it is better to find a group of familiar players to issue test qualifications, test within a controllable range, and stop immediately once the wind direction is not right, and then give customers an explanation." After Team Leader Xia finished speaking, Manager Gou hurriedly nodded in agreement.

"You're so unconfident." Gao Ming stood next to the computer, pressing his hands against the desk: "Don't tie your hands and feet! Don't set any barriers for players, use all promotional resources to promote it, so that anyone who is interested in this game can play it! When necessary, you can even give players money, and we will let players play! ”

Compared with Manager Gou, Gao Ming seems to be more like a leader, his performance can't be described as a home, it feels like he regards the company as his own life, and if the company collapses, he will hang up.

"You only have one chance, so do your best!" Gao Ming raised the promotional copy in his hand, and he slightly modified the name provided by the customer, "To Our Dying Love", and wrote the new name of the game on the first page of the paper - "To Our Dying Love".

Nightlight Studios bypassed the client and began to conduct player testing, as the studio at the bottom of the Motu Technology rankings, they can actually leverage very few resources, so the quality of the game must be excellent.

……

At half past four in the afternoon, Mr. Zhao chatted a lot with Manager Gou before, they have been friends for many years, but the brothers still have to settle accounts, he is a little worried about this investment, and hopes that Manager Gou can come over with the game in person.

"It's been a long time since Nightlight Studio has released a popular game, but Gou Youzhi and I are old classmates, so he won't cheat me, right?"

Hanging up the phone, Mr. Zhao logged in to the industry's largest communication platform, he wanted to search for the latest news from Night Light Studio, and saw several popular posts in the horror horror zone.

"There aren't many people in their studio, and they dare to make two games at the same time?"

With a hint of curiosity, Mr. Zhao clicked on a post casually, Nightlight Studio released the game being tested for free, and the players below were arguing, and one-star negative reviews and five-star praise went hand in hand.

"The comments are extremely divided, which is kind of interesting." Mr. Zhao downloaded the game and looked at the name of the game and fell into deep thought.

"To the love that we will eventually die? How can this copy my idea? ”

Launch the game, and the gentle, low-key and kind otaku protagonist appears, who lives alone in a warm and sweet murderous house.

"It's a very ordinary protagonist design, and there doesn't seem to be anything special about it."

As the sun sank into the horizon, the girlish rental house completely changed, and before Mr. Zhao could react, the protagonist he controlled had already died tragically.

Sitting in front of the screen, Mr. Zhao looked at the body of the male protagonist who was dragged away, and subconsciously started the game again.

Sitting on the couch will be strangled from behind by something; Hiding in the bathroom will be broken into by the murderer; The safe in other horror games has become a cannibalistic mouth in this game; wanted to hide under the bed, and when he lifted the sheets, he just looked at the murderer; Even if you stay still, you will receive various death mail threats and gradually drive you crazy.

No one in this game can believe that all the NPCs, including Mom and Dad, are fake, and the world seems to want to kill the protagonist.

"I'm on horseback!"

Mr. Zhao has been playing for twenty minutes unconsciously, and this game has a special magic that can fully mobilize the player's emotions and want to punch through the screen.

The beta promotion continues, and players keep leaving reviews.

"I actually died seventeen times in a cohabitation love game! Seventeen times! ”

"It's so realistic! Almost all the funds in this game are used to build a dead heroine! I don't know which wronged big investor who invested in this project. ”

"Is there a great god who lives to the seventh day?! It's an unnatural death simulator, right? ”

The popularity of the game is fermenting, and this love game started from the horror and thriller section, and gradually entered the eyes of some niche game UP masters, and more and more people noticed it.

At 5:40 in the afternoon, Mr. Zhao, who had died I don't know how many times, finally played on the eleventh night, when he frowned and thought about who the murderer was, Manager Gou entered the office with an embarrassed smile.

"Lao Zhao, I got you two cans of tea, both of which you like." Manager Gou deliberately wanted to avoid the topic of the game, but when he put the tea on the desk, the afterglow swept to Mr. Zhao's computer screen, and the familiar game screen made the fat on Manager Gou's face freeze.

"Out of trust in you, and in the spirit of pulling you along, I trust you to do the game, but it's been a few weeks, and you're going to tell me where the money was spent, right? How's my love game going? Mr. Zhao didn't look up, and concentrated on controlling the male protagonist of the game to avoid the ghosts.

Manager Gou thought back to all the art of language, and finally whispered, "Aren't you playing?" ”

The keyboard tapping stopped, Mr. Zhao raised his head, his finger pointed at the game screen, and then slowly moved to himself: "Huh? ”

"Hmm."
