Game Design: Players are moved to tears

Chapter 18 Canvassing according to the rules

"This monster is so perverted, spinning around with a scythe..."

"Hey, hey, brothers, I've entered the hidden map, I'm knocking!" A cry of surprise attracted the attention of a large number of onlookers.

Liu Wei took a closer look and saw that the lucky player was in a 'dark room'.

The entire picture turned into black and white, with only a sword in the corner emitting a faint purple light.

Defeat the enemies in this room to unlock the Devil May Cry profession.

"The damage of this monster is so high! This dog must have been controlled for too long." The lucky player sighed after being killed, "This is impossible to fight."

Liu Wei looked on without saying a word.

Hidden levels basically require mechanics. For example, the hidden level Goblin Kingdom in the first level requires you to chop down the nearby tree and crush the enemy within ten seconds of killing the enemy.

Otherwise, the goblins will be resurrected indefinitely.

Only this room only needs to kill the humanoid monster.

But this level is not that easy.

Although the humanoid monster's blood volume is very low, the dog has a high chance of triggering the restraint, and the restraint time is only three seconds.

Once you are imprisoned, the enemy's high damage will destroy you in a short time.

But if the player wants to kill the dog first, he will be trapped.

Because the dog's blood volume is very thick, it is basically impossible to eliminate it.

The optimal solution to this level is to grab the dog and imprison it, and directly use the invincibility time of the grabbing skill to forcefully avoid damage.

But Liu Wei had no plans to tell them.

Not for the emotional value.

Because the joy of the game is also included in the playing process, players discover some game tips through their own efforts and apply them in practice.

I remember back then, when Liu Wei created a Qigong wave on the Famicom "The King of Fighters", he had to hide it and never tell his friends, becoming the most handsome boy in the village!
This kind of happiness can never be experienced by reading the guide and clearing the level!
While Liu Weizheng was watching everyone discussing how to clear this boss with a smile on his face, he suddenly noticed a figure constantly moving through the crowd.

They are sneaky, their behavior is very suspicious, and they basically only look for players who have just logged off.

Senior Sister Ling?
what is she doing

Liu Wei frowned and quietly leaned over, just in time to hear Senior Sister Ling's question:

"What do you think of the style of this game?"

Liu Wei suddenly understood.

The senior sister is not confident in her art, so she specifically asks every player for their opinion so that she can improve in the future.

Liu Wei's gaze at Ling Jingwen improved.

Even though the senior's temper is a little bit grumpier, her professionalism is a little bit worse, and her figure is a little bit worse, she is still a good person in essence.

Whether it's to accompany him to participate in the competition, or to attract popularity for himself.

The most important thing is that the senior sister is motivated.

The player who was asked thought for a while and replied: "At first glance, the style of this game is very strange, with a youthful and retarded beauty."

Senior Sister Ling's eyes immediately shone brightly, and she nodded repeatedly: "Yeah, what else is there?"

The man continued to answer: "But after getting familiar with it, you will have a feeling that this game should be like this. On the contrary, I feel that only this style of painting can match the game."

Senior Sister Ling suddenly felt like a deflated balloon.

When Liu Wei heard this, he smiled and walked away.

It looked like the senior sister was obviously relieved.

When he has time, he must help the senior sister build her self-confidence, so that the senior sister's professional level is as good as her figure... Liu Wei secretly made up his mind.

"Wait a minute, art depends on talent. What if the senior's talent is just like this?" Liu Wei suddenly discovered a blind spot.

"Hmm..." After Liu Wei struggled for a while, he hammered his palm: "Then it's the other way around. I'll work hard to make my senior's figure match her professional level."

Liu Wei snapped his fingers and left with a smile.

Watson, you are so awesome!

……

Ling Jingwen hadn't noticed Liu Wei coming and leaving yet, and her originally happy face now looked extremely embarrassed.

"No, not bad? Is this style of painting good?"

Ling Jingwen quickly took out her phone, opened the interface, and displayed several domineering and mighty original paintings.It was the exquisite original painting she had painted all night long.

"Do you think it would be better to change it to this?" Ling Jingwen's big Kazilan eyes were full of hope.

"...like this?" The player took the phone, looked at it carefully a few times, then looked at Ling Jingwen, and suddenly sneered:
"Oh, I understand. You are a wild art designer. You look down on the original paintings of other people's game designers. You want to replace them."

"You don't think that people draw like this because they don't have the ability, do you? People who design like this must have their own ideas."

The player returned the phone to Ling Jingwen and said disdainfully: "As a peer, what you have to do is to discover the beauty of other people's designs and look for shining points, instead of focusing on the shortcomings and saying, 'I can do it too.'"

"Cook, just practice more!" After the player finished speaking, he left.

Ling Jingwen's face turned red with anger, and she stood there with her chest rising and falling. She wanted to say something, but couldn't.

Especially the last sentence had a huge psychological impact on her!
Ling Jingwen was about to catch up and ask why this exquisite original painting was inferior to the inferior stick figure.

But as soon as she took two steps, countless voices discussing the game rang in her ears.

Turning around, he looked at the scene where everyone was immersed in the game and couldn't extricate themselves.

So happy, so enthusiastic, so excited.

Ling Jingwen stopped and looked at the original painting on her phone, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.

"He's right, I can't just focus on the shortcomings, I should also look for its advantages."

"My junior is a very experienced designer. Although he has not graduated yet, he gives me the feeling that he has been working in the industry for many years."

"My junior brother asked me to draw like this. He must have his reasons, and he didn't make things difficult for me. I should think more about whether there is any special meaning to doing this..."

After struggling for a moment, Ling Jingwen resolutely deleted all the original paintings.

Then, she walked briskly, with her hair full of black hair, and skipped away.

……

In a blink of an eye, it was six o'clock in the afternoon, and it was time for the venue to close.

Designers in other exhibition areas have already asked to pack their things and prepare to leave, but Liu Wei's exhibition area is still bustling with people and various discussions.

When the security guards who maintained order saw this situation, they did not dare to force them away. Who could withstand the more than 100 people who came down?

In desperation, the host could only ask Liu Wei, the client, to come out and urge everyone to leave.

Liu Wei clapped his hands, trying to attract everyone's attention, but found that no one was interested in him, and everyone was playing games.

In desperation, Liu Wei had to borrow a large speaker, which attracted everyone's attention:

"Ahem, hello everyone, I am the designer of the game "Dungeon Rush". First of all, I would like to thank you all for playing, but I will be off work soon..."

As a result, without speaking, a voice was heard from the crowd:
"What the hell, I'm off work. I've been waiting in line for an hour. You tell me I'm off work, no!"

Everyone also cheered: "Yes, I've been waiting in line for such a long time. If there are three or four more people, it will be my turn. Whoever wants to leave can go, but I won't leave anyway!"

"Otherwise, you go your own way, and I'll play ours. Make sure not to move these things, and everyone will supervise each other."

After hearing this suggestion, everyone responded one after another.

Liu Wei looked at the host, who looked embarrassed and begged to look back.

Liu Wei had no choice but to sigh and said: "You will definitely not be able to play, but tomorrow all computers in the venue will be open to play."

"Everyone can vote for "Brave Dungeon"." Liu Wei suddenly showed a sly smile: "This way you can easily find this game when you play on other computers tomorrow."

After saying that, Liu Wei glanced at the host next to him: "Isn't it a foul for me to do this?"

The host on the side twitched the corner of his mouth and wanted to say something, but after looking at the excited players, he backed away.

rule?

Liu Wei didn't break any rules. As a game designer, isn't it normal to canvass votes for his own game?

It's just a little clever in timing...

Besides, Liu Wei did not deliberately mislead.

After the game restrictions are lifted tomorrow, the ranking of games on the computer will indeed be based on the number of votes.

This is all very beaver!

Is there a problem?

The host shook his head heavily, there was no question at all!
……

Phew, I’m really too tired and don’t want to code at all.

I'm so exhausted that I can't live without recommendation votes!
