Game Design: Players are moved to tears

Chapter 28 "The Magic Tower"

Fumei experience store.

The second floor.

A man and a woman sit facing each other.

"This is a classic Western fantasy game!"

"Uh-huh!"

Ling Jingwen's voice became excited.

"This is a game where a brave man keeps fighting to defeat the devil!"

Ling Jingwen's eyes seemed to be shining.

"There are at least dozens of monsters in the game, and each monster has a different appearance. This is a difficult challenge!"

"no problem."

"This is dozens of times more difficult than previous art."

"No problem at all!"

Liu Wei shook his head and threw over an art demand list:

"This is an art demand. See what's wrong."

Ling Jingwen took the report.

There was no answer, just a confident smile on his face.

"It's finally here, gold always shines!"

After muttering in a low voice, Ling Jingwen looked at the report with a smile.

""Magic Tower"? This name is full of malice at first sight!"

Ling Jingwen looked at the report, then at Liu Wei who had already started working, and murmured in a low voice.

This name, no matter how you look at it, is a game made to deliberately provoke Liang Dongfang's "Tower of Magic".

"What a stingy man..." Ling Jingwen glanced at Liu Wei and continued to look down.

After all, the next step is her job.

But when she saw the specific needs, she felt bad.

"Huh? What's going on here?"

Ling Jingwen rubbed her eyes, seriously doubting that she had seen it wrong.

The art requirements are 2D. You only need to make a front-facing original painting in pixel style. The action method is...the pattern alternates left and right mirror images? ? ?
The brave man, a middle-aged boy with brown hair wearing thick blue armor, and then... disappeared? !

Are you crazy?

Ling Jingwen was so dumbfounded that she flipped down two pages and determined that the main character's needs were just this one sentence.

This thing can also be regarded as an art requirement, it is even simpler than "Dungeon Bravely"!
Although "Dungeon Rush" has a weird style, it at least has basic features.

Holding a lightsaber, the soul of the sword with a blue tick on his head, a berserker full of blood, and a roaming man wearing a crow hat.

But this game called "Magic Tower" only needs one sentence for the protagonist?

Is this really the protagonist of the game?
How to give people a sense of being the protagonist of Butter...

Ling Jingwen forced herself to resist the desire to complain and looked down again.

It's okay not to look at it, but Ling Jingwen's brows furrowed even more, almost forming a straight line.

Slime, slime in various colors, with big eyes that make everyone cute.

The bat has a blue appearance and red eyes. As its strength increases, its size gradually increases and its color changes...

Skeleton soldiers, white skeletons, show their powerful strength with the weapons they hold...

The only good news is that the requirements for several bosses are quite specific, such as a huge red octopus and a cloaked devil in the void.

But the problem is, even so, in Ling Jingwen's opinion, this demand is far from satisfactory.

"That, junior."

Finally, Ling Jingwen raised her hand to ask.

"Huh? What's wrong, senior?"

Liu Wei stopped what he was doing and looked back at his senior sister.

Although he had just taken one small blue pill, he had already completed a hundred consecutive draws and had four small blue pills.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with spending a little time with your senior to communicate and express feelings.

After all, now Liu Wei can last for 16 hours, so wasting half an hour on his senior is nothing.A durable man, even in death!

"This report..." Ling Jingwen shook the form in her hand with a strange expression, "Is there something wrong?"

Ok?
Liu Wei stood up, picked up the report, looked at it, and confirmed: "That's right, just follow this demand..."

Suddenly, Liu Wei seemed to have thought of something.

Smiling, he patted Ling Jingwen's head and said, "I know this request is a bit difficult for you, but I believe you can do it."

The art requirements of "Magic Tower" are still more than one level higher than those of "Dungeon Rush".

This is still a certain degree of difficulty for the senior sister, an 'art novice'.

After all...senpai is Lao Zeng's close relative.

It's not that Liu Wei looks down on related households.

But there are two types of people Liu Wei hates the most in his life.

One is related households.

The other is to prevent yourself from becoming a related person.

"Eh? What's wrong with you, senior?" Liu Wei asked strangely.

Ling Jingwen lowered her head, her mouth twitched wildly, her fists clenched, and she muttered something:
"Don't be angry, don't be angry, it's not easy to get angry and damage your body..."

"It doesn't matter, it's just a pixel style painting. It's not like I can't draw it..."

Liu Wei said: "If you can't draw it, don't force it. I can help you after I finish the work."

Ling Jingwen suddenly raised her head, the smile on her face was a little stiff: "Of course I can draw it."

"Oh." Liu Wei blinked and was about to turn around and leave when he suddenly turned around and waved his fist up and down:
"Then, senior sister, come on!"

creak creak ~
It seemed that the sound of teeth criss-crossing came from behind Liu Wei.

"Don't worry, there will be absolutely no problem at all!"

……

Back in the office area, Liu Wei continued to operate on the platform.

Pull various materials, arrange the map scene, monster location, various gems, merchants, rare props according to the game in your mind...

"Magic Tower" is a puzzle game that has spread around the world.

Although it is a small game, it is not inferior to some 3A masterpieces in terms of numerical seriousness.

Even more than that.

As a price, the painting style of "Magic Tower" is relatively retro, and the gameplay is relatively simple. It is to control the brave to continuously destroy monsters, obtain gold coins and experience, and finally defeat the king.

The fighting method is also relatively boring, with the attributes of the two villains displayed on the screen.

According to the attack, defense and blood volume of both sides, it will be reduced step by step until the enemy is dead.

However, for Liu Wei, this has become a fatal weapon for him to defeat Kasuga Media.

In three days, Liu Wei was unable to reproduce famous games from his previous life, not even Mario.

But "Magic Tower" is an exception. Relying on the powerful editing capabilities of the Luopan platform, Liu Wei only needs to input the core values ​​​​of the game into it to complete.

After all, the core of "Magic Tower" is the placement of various props and the attributes of monsters.

Players use their own wisdom to eliminate the weak and avoid the strong, and gain a sense of satisfaction.

In the previous life, this was the result of years of research and polishing by the design team leader, who adjusted it step by step.

In the early stage, if a mob increases its attack power or even blood volume, it may cause the player's clearance route to change.

But now... Liu Wei only needs to take a little blue pill to solve all his problems.

Liu Wei took out his mobile phone and called Chunshi Media as usual.

"I apologize to your father!"

After @ other major media, I put down my phone and got back into the game.

Since you want to play, let's play big. How can we just let this matter pass...

……

The correct answer is "Magic Tower"

Did you guess right?
