Create horror games that scare players around the world

Chapter 44: Game name change abnormal invasion
After completing the settings, Ding Yi began to write a new story to enrich the entire game.

But this job is not easy, it has to be done step by step.

He first instructed his assistant Zhou Tinglian to screen the resumes and give them to him so that he could select the candidates.

Since the job posting, nearly a hundred resumes have been received every day.

The reason why so many people apply to Star Games is that, apart from the peak application period in April, the conditions here are the most relaxed.

Just one year of work experience is required, and there is no age or education limit.

This means that vocational school and college students also have the opportunity to come in. Similarly, people in their forties and fifties can also find jobs.

Unlike other game companies, not only are the conditions harsh, but just 5 years of experience can screen out a large number of people.

After giving instructions to his assistant, he continued with the work at hand.

First, it is the design of the world view.

In the original "Before the Cataclysm", players started picking up trash as soon as they entered the game, with no guidance and no plot.

How did the mutant beasts in the game come from?

What is the name of the town where the player is born?
How did the world become like this?

There is no explanation at all, just leaving it there for players to play.

Even in "7 Days to Die", a note will be used at the beginning of the game to tell players what they have encountered before.

It's a matter of attitude.

Now that the game is in the hands of Boss Ding, he has to perfect these detailed settings.

In his imagination, since it is the end of the world, there must be a reason, right?
What caused the apocalypse? Where did the first infected people come from? Who caused this disaster?

In the game, players complete tasks while exploring the truth about the destruction of the world, and gradually come to understand this huge doomsday.

But one thing must be noted, that is, exploring the truth of the world cannot be used as the main selling point, and it cannot even be treated as a task.

Because it makes no sense.

Players work hard to do a lot of dirty work, and finally find out that the world was destroyed due to this or that situation. Oh, that's it, so what next?

In addition to making players say "So that's how it is", is there anything else it brings?

Therefore, he planned to follow the example of the Souls series of games and break down the world view and hide it in various props, documents, NPC lines and buildings.

If players want to know more, they can naturally dig deeper.

The sense of accomplishment you get from spending your own time and effort is much more valuable than what the production team directly tells you.

If you don’t want to understand the world view, just follow the main storyline and play what you want to play.

Therefore, the main storyline he designed is very simple.

Roughly:
The player plays the role of a wanderer who receives a special mission with a high reward, requiring him to deliver something to a mysterious researcher in the city of Harlan.

This thing can be used to research virus serum, and as long as it succeeds, the zombie virus can be completely solved. Therefore, the player is tasked with saving the world.

However, Harlan City is currently in extreme chaos, with forces fighting for resources. It is not easy to find this researcher, so they can only ask the two largest forces in the area, the military and Huoying.

However, these two major forces are also fighting for the resources in the dark zone. Players can only wander between the various parties, gather clues and information, run errands, pick up garbage, and fight zombies to complete their tasks as soon as possible.

The player himself has become the target of the two major forces, just like Zhuge Liang: whoever gets the player gets the city of Harlan.

Once a player joins a faction, he will start the faction war mode, get precious materials and so on.

But the main line is still to find researchers.

The advantage of multiplayer games is that there is no need to rush to finish the plot, and it can be updated in stages.

The current first phase of the plot - entering Harlan for the first time, is the 1.0 version of "Zombie Crisis" that Ding Yi is preparing to launch.

There will also be some side quests to enrich the plot and gameplay, and some limited-time events to keep the game fresh and online.

Boss Ding even plans to have some of the old characters from the show make an appearance, meeting the players with their vicissitudes of life 20 years later, and helping the players.

After the official release of "Dying Light", players will be able to feel emotional and smile knowingly when they see familiar characters.

In front of the computer, Ding Yi kept typing on the keyboard.

The plot you think of must be good.

When it comes to worldview, such a grand apocalyptic stage has a wide range of plasticity.

He can add all the zombie games from previous lives into the game and release them in the form of expansion packs such as version 2.0 or version 3.0.

Create a doomsday paradise for Blue Star players and let the whole world experience the horror of zombies!
Moreover, he had actually already determined the cause of this apocalyptic disaster.

The truth that players discover in the game is just an appearance.

In order to fit the real reason for the end of the world, he decided to change the name of the game.

Ding Yi thought about it and typed in the document.

It's called "Abnormal Invasion".

Two days passed by in a flash.

Although the game "Rotten Meat" is scary, more and more people have completed it as time goes by.

The clearance rate on the Cyber ​​platform has also reached 15%

There are countless related videos on the barrage website.

There are some funny ones, such as: [I want to show this desperate video to the whole world. ]

I clicked on it and saw that I had run out of energy and could only hide in the closet in front of the limb monster, and then I was caught
There are also some funny things: [A friend gave me some rotten meat, please check if it is genuine. ]

When I clicked on it, I saw that the roar of the monster was replaced by the quintessence of Chinese culture, the voice of a cute girl. After being discovered, I chased after her while shouting "Cute, knock you?" It was really hard to hold my breath.

There are even some funny ones: [Sports Student Training]

The content is naturally very fast-paced, and the audience who are performing in the sewer are tingling with fear.

In just two days, a horror game that can scare people to death has brought endless joy to everyone.

However, there is something even more extreme.

A bunch of players actually started racing in the game!
One speedrun video after another was posted.

At first, the fastest time to complete the game was 80 minutes.

Then not long after, he was surpassed by someone who completed the game in 70 minutes at the fastest speed.

Immediately afterwards, someone else overtook us at the speed limit of 60 minutes.

Finally, someone topped the Danmu.com ranking in 45 minutes, an unsurpassed achievement that shocked many ordinary players.

Okay, okay, this is how you play games, right?

All the racing videos don't hide in the closet, can we give our body monsters some dignity? Even if it's just a symbolic hiding!
On the First Cancer website, a large number of players were discussing how to speedrun and how to break the 45-minute racing record.

But at this time, a certain editor suddenly posted a message, which attracted all the people surfing the Internet.

This is a video repost from Danmu.com.

The title is simple, just one sentence, but it aroused strong interest among players.

　Alas, I fell asleep while writing at 6 o'clock last night. I cried so hard. I quickly revised the article and posted one chapter first.
