Game Design: Players are moved to tears

Chapter 20 Special Uses of Props

Liang Dongfang looked at everyone trying to blame each other with a gloomy face.

But the next second, he looked at "Dungeon Rush": "It's all because of this kind of garbage game that makes games like mine that are full of core unpopular."

"I must eliminate this garbage game."

"Is it wrong to create games that are too real?"

Liang Dongfang decided to experience this game in person, but he had to hide it, otherwise he would be embarrassed for a lifetime if his peers saw him.

……

"Junior, look at that person, he looks so strange."

In the exhibition area, Senior Ling, who was fighting with Liu Wei, suddenly pointed in one direction and said.

Liu Wei turned around and looked slightly stunned.

Temple Stadium isn't exactly warm, but it's not cold either.

But the man in front of me was wearing a mask, with the brim of his hat lowered. He walked cautiously, looking left and right from time to time, for fear of being seen by others.

Evaluator!
Liu Wei suddenly thought of what the host said at the opening of the first day, the evaluator with 100 votes hidden among the players.

It's just... Liu Wei looked at the strange appearance of the man in front of him, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly. Are you sure this is hidden among the players?
Liu Wei inexplicably thought of a famous gun game to find gang members hidden in the crowd.

The reminder given at the time was 'He is bald', but in the large crowd, there was only one person with a bald head.

It cannot be said to be similar to the situation in front of me, it can only be said to be exactly the same!
But with the idea that he would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go, Liu Wei still received the 'evaluator' very cordially.

They even found a computer for him so that he could experience the warm service attitude of spring breeze.

The only thing that makes Liu Wei strange is that this reviewer seems to be a little dissatisfied with "Dungeon Brave".

"Probably because the reviewers often play good games, they are more disgusted by this style of painting." Liu Wei found a good excuse.

But then, Liu Wei's eyes were blinded by the evaluator's operation, all kinds of operations pulled him away, saying that he was a primary school student, which was an insult to the word "primary school student".

All kinds of mindless pressing skills... are like those of female college students.

"What should I do?" Liu Wei was a little worried, "What if the reviewer gives me a negative review because of this?"

Although Liu Wei doesn't really care about the evaluators' votes, one more vote is a vote.

This is like the sound feedback of some two-player games, although you can feel that she is satisfied from the physical feedback from the other side.

But having a voice and not having a voice are two completely different kinds of satisfaction.

Moreover, Liu Wei couldn't teach directly, as his intention to please was too obvious.

"Is there any way to allow him to play the game easily without clearly revealing my intentions?"

"In addition to technology, the game "Bravely Entering the Dungeon" has equipment... Now it's ready!" Liu Wei hammered his palms excitedly.

Find [Lucky Water] from the system backpack and use it directly on the evaluator.

"In this way, the evaluator's luck will become very good, but the price is that the luck will become worse after the effect ends."

"But it shouldn't be a big problem. After all, luck is such a thing. If you increase the equipment drop rate, how bad can it be if it's worse later?"

Liu Wei thought for a while and used the [Popularity Magnifier] on the evaluators.

After all, props must either be used or not used, and the effect must be maximized if used.

Sure enough, after using two props, the evaluator's luck soared at a speed visible to the naked eye. Basically, every time he passed a picture, a piece of equipment would explode.

The evaluator's extraordinary explosion rate also attracted the attention of a large number of players nearby.

"I'll go, the explosion rate is so high, let's cheat."

Under everyone's attention and praise, Liu Wei obviously noticed that the evaluator's face looked better.

Half an hour later, the evaluator left in a hurry.

……

Liang Dongfang returned to the exhibition area and rubbed his ears that were a little sore from the mask, but thinking about the situation just now, a silly smile appeared on his face involuntarily.

clap clap!

Suddenly, he gave himself two powerful slaps.

"What am I doing?! I'm here to detect the enemy's situation. How can I be fooled by the enemy's game?"

"It's a trap, it's all the enemy's trap!"

But after the slap, Liang Dongfang recalled the scene of being praised by everyone just now, and couldn't help but giggled again.

That feeling of being watched... is really nice.

If I can win the championship this time, I will definitely be more popular!

Liang Dongfang once again looked at "Enter the Dungeon" on the LED screen with a sinister look.

If it wasn't for this game, he would definitely be the champion this time!
All because of this game!

But the next second, everyone's exclamations directly interrupted his reverie.

"Hey, boss, why is there a bug in this game?"

"That's right, boss, take a look, the dialog box has disappeared, and the NPCs are also misplaced!"

"I just managed to get the prop, but the screen got stuck just now, and it disappeared directly for me. Moreover, this prop is a one-time use and can only be restarted."

Liang Dongfang looked at the crowd who kept calling him, with a surprised expression.

Um?impossible!

I tested it specially before participating in the competition, and there are no bugs at all!
Liang Dongfang stepped forward to check, but found that the causes of these bugs were a combination of various reasons.

Although the probability of triggering a bug is not small.

But with so many people triggering the bug at the same time, the probability is smaller than winning the lottery.

Liang Dongfang was very puzzled, it shouldn't be, my luck was quite good just now, why did it become so bad when I came back?

Is there really something wrong with my game?
……

The three-day competition time flies in the blink of an eye.The entire place is about to close, but everyone in the place is still sitting in front of the computer playing "Dungeon Rush".

It’s different from the first day when players didn’t understand anything and were abused repeatedly.

Today's players have basically cleared the normal difficulty story mode.

However, Liu Wei has only made two endings so far, and both of them are tragic endings.

At this time, a player who had just finished the level pointed at the screen and asked: "Boss, that's wrong. Why did it end tragically even after I rescued Kelly?"

The current two endings, regardless of whether the player can save Kelly or not, both show tragic endings.

Don't ask, the folder has already been created.

Liu Wei spoke briefly and replied: "Do you want to hear the real reason or the false reason?"

Player: "Of course it's true!"

"Because you will hate this woman named Kelly very much in the future."

The player blinked and didn't understand Liu Wei's words: "Then...what about the false ones?"

"I hate this woman very much." Liu Wei said coolly.

The player said "hehe" and continued to fight in the game without any intention of changing the game.

Because the game content of "Dungeon Rush" is really rich.

In the early stage, you can experience the joy of collecting equipment and improving your strength.

Every time you face a new enemy and die in battle, every pain will turn into happiness when you clear the level.

When you finally pass the normal mode, you can unlock other difficulties to further challenge your limits.

If you pass the highest level of King difficulty with one character, there are still four professions left waiting for you to challenge.

Not only that, the rich weapon system also makes those players who are collectors happy.

There will always be some players who are obsessed with carrying different weapons and accessories to pass the level to satisfy their own unique sense of accomplishment.

Moreover, the hidden map in the game greatly increases the gameplay.

When the first player enters the 'dark room', the entire game begins to spiral out of control.

Everyone was looking for ways to enter the hidden room. What impressed Liu Wei most was that these players actually found them all!
"I don't understand..." Liu Wei was behind a female player, with a hint of disbelief on his expression, "How can you be so good?"

"Can you tell me how you were beaten to death by the goblin monster in the first level? You can even chop it with it!"

The female player stuck out her tongue: "Sorry, I was a little scared, so I didn't dare to fight back."

"...Okay." Liu Wei sighed quietly. He originally wanted to rely on the hidden map of Goblin to show off.

After all, who can't defeat the goblin in the first level!
But it's not without good news.

Liu Wei glanced at his emotional value, and it had already reached [-], most of which were provided by the player repeatedly by the mechanism of hiding the map.

Moreover, Liu Wei raised his head and glanced at the LED screen. The handsome man with the lightsaber still occupied a promotional interface.

"Dungeon Run" - 2031 votes.

It is more than ten times more than the No. 2 "Peace Lake".

Liu Wei specifically searched the list and found that "Magic Tower" was not among the top eleven.

Turning to Ling Jingwen who was sitting in front of the computer, she said, "Look, I just said that "Magic Tower" is trying to gain our popularity."

"Yeah, yeah, everything you said is right..." At this time, Ling Jingwen was sitting cross-legged on the gaming chair, with her black hair tied into a ball, revealing her snow-white neck, which was dotted with a mole.

His hands were tapping on the keyboard, nonchalantly.

He still mocked at the side at every turn: "Ah, that's it? This is too good. You're so good at speedrunning with me? Go home and feed yourself!"

Finally, he raised a middle finger.

The player next to him turned blue with anger, but did not dare to say a word in reply.

Speedrunning, this is how expert players play.

Choose the same character, the same equipment, and the same difficulty to see who can clear the level in shorter time.

When Liu Wei saw this situation, he felt slightly worried.

I don’t know when it started, but my senior suddenly seemed to be interested in "Dungeon Rush".

From being nonchalant at first, to having a long conversation about technology with me alone at night, the conversation lasted the whole night.

Until now, Liu Wei was suffering from lack of sleep and lack of energy.

And then to the invincible gaming queen who dominates the arena today.

"I'm not going to create an internet addicted girl..." Liu Wei suddenly thought of Zeng Jianye's face and shuddered violently.

The former genius girl was lured outside by a mysterious man for three days, and turned into a delirious internet addicted girl when she returned home. What happened in all of this... The UC Shock Department didn't even dare to write like that.

"Hiss..." Liu Wei took a breath of air and contributed to the warming of the atmosphere.

have to figure out a way...

Hmm, no idea.

Liu Wei gave up his plan to save his senior, mainly because of Senior Ling's temper, which was not the kind of character that would listen to others' advice and eat enough.

Moreover, Liu Wei thought about it, what happened to the Internet addicted girl?
I am a game designer, and based on the thoughts in my mind, it is not easy to support a Senior Sister Ling.

Liu Wei glanced at Senior Sister Ling, whose cheeks turned red due to excessive excitement and beads of sweat dripped from her nose.

"It's a big deal. I'll suffer a little bit. Let's raise it first. I'm really a good person."

……

Three thousand words...
