Game Making: The Latest Chapter Begins With Healing the Player

Although "Fireworks" is a VR game, the game flow and volume are not large, and there are no elements that need to be collected.

It's basically a pure thread game, and it only takes about three or four hours to play along.

But for domestic players, the topic caused by this game has generated a lot of popularity.

The most important point is the reasons for the tragedy in the game and the theme of the game itself.

Feudal superstition seems very far away, but in fact it is not far away from players.

To this day, you can still see all kinds of people who were deceived because of feudal superstition, or some tragedies that happened.

However, as more and more players clear "Fireworks".

Compared with the unanimous praise at the beginning, there are gradually some different topics about this game.

That's about the horror aspect. After all, although the content of "Fireworks" is good, it is still a horror game after all.

Although the Chinese-style horror atmosphere is excellent, there is nothing scary in the whole game, which makes many players who are rushing to enjoy a feast of scares a bit disappointed.

On the game community forum, many players are also discussing this.

‘I feel that although the plot narrative of “Fireworks” is very good, especially the transitions between various scenes in the game, it shouldn’t be qualified as a horror game, right? ’

‘Yes, except for a bit of underworld at the beginning, the overall pattern doesn’t feel too scary. ’

"In terms of story and metaphorical depth, "Fireworks" is pretty good, but as a horror game it's still a bit inferior. ’

‘Yes, yes, and in terms of gameplay, although the various puzzle designs match the plot scenes very well, they basically feel like a lubricant. ’

‘Actually, I feel that Fireworks might be better if it wasn’t made into a horror game. ’

Many players are making various evaluations online.

However, most of these evaluations come from overseas.

After all, the content of "Fireworks" is more Chinese-style. Even though the game itself has been translated and annotated, it is still difficult for most people who don't understand Chinese funerals to feel the atmosphere. Feel the terror.

At most, it is through uncomfortable images such as paper figures and dark environments that people can feel fear.

This is why most mainstream horror movies and TV shows focus on visual effects.

Because it is the most intuitive and does not require the audience to understand the culture and connotation behind it, it is also the type with the lowest threshold.

With "Fireworks", the topic of discussion among many players has also risen from this game to the genre of horror games.

‘It feels like it’s hard for horror games to give people a scary feeling, except for the frightening kind of horror, of course. ’

'That's right, even Chen Xu is no exception. The previous "Resident Evil: Village" was just okay with the puppet level, but in the end the popularity of the lady went beyond the horror element. ’

‘Am I the only one who thinks the village is good? I enjoyed the oppressive feeling of fear in the front, and Ethan's concern for his daughter and worry for his wife in the back are very touching. ’

‘I was moved, but there were still too few horror elements. ’

'There is no way horror games are like this, but as a lover of horror games, I really miss the days when I played "Escape". ’

"Speaking of "Escape", I think of a game that has never been released. Who still remembers the DEMO launched by Nebula Games before World VR was launched? ’

‘Silent Hill PT’? When you said that, I also remembered it. Have you noticed that there seem to be many similarities with PT in "Fireworks"? Isn’t that section of the convenience store alley an infinite corridor? There is also the protagonist who enters another world and sees things that ordinary people cannot see. Isn’t this the other world? ’

‘After the identification, the man upstairs is definitely not Chinese! ’

‘Firmness +1, although what you said does sound a bit similar, but that’s like beating a wall! Talk to a psychic! How about two things? ’

‘Don’t say so much, I’ll just ask you if you look like me! ’

'It would be great if "Silent Hill PT" could be made into a complete version and released. Currently, the only version available on PC is the abridged version. ’

Many players who like horror games on the Internet are talking about this topic.

While chatting, everyone invariably talked about the DEMO that Nebula Games had used for testing Universal VR.

Because the emergence of "Silent Hill PT" at that time really scared a lot of players, and the setting of infinite corridors influenced many subsequent horror games.

Until now, there are still many horror games that still use some of the settings in "Silent Hill PT", such as the combination of infinite corridors and turn-around kills in the same scene.

Now from the discussion of fireworks to horror games, some horror game lovers have invariably thought of the game "Silent Hill PT".

And the voices of the players are getting louder and louder. Of course, it is unknown how many of them are just players who are making noises.

There are even many players with various Aite Chen Xu.

Until a message was released from Silent's official blog, all the players were silent for a while, as if the Silent Warlock in DOTA had unleashed a big move.

On Chen Xu's official blog, there is a message that has just been sent.

The content of the message is also very simple, with only a few short sentences.

‘The clearance rate of the VR version of “Escape” so far is 11.2%, the clearance rate of the VR version of “Resident Evil” is 22%, and the clearance rate of “Resident Evil: Village” is 41.9%’

‘Players who have cleared all three games can register on the Nebula gaming platform. 1.5 million quotas will be collected within two weeks, and IPs that meet your requirements will be launched. ’

Simple and clear official blog, there are two accompanying pictures below.

The first concept map shows a hazy fog, with three words "Silent Hill" vaguely visible in the fog.

As for the second picture, it is a discount information. I took a look at the discount diagram.

There is no doubt that there is a fracture, but the object of the fracture made all the players silent for a moment. "Escape", "Resident Evil", and "Resident Evil: Village" are all available in bundled gift packages.

Is Mr. Chen waiting here? How can this be fun for you?

Many players felt a strange feeling when they looked at Chen Xu's official blog.

In fact, this kind of petition is not uncommon in the gaming circle. In short, this behavior is crowdfunding.

Some manufacturers with insufficient economic strength will carry out similar activities.

First, draw a big pie and trick the players into paying.

However, those who do this in the parallel world are basically limited to some niche games, or designers who start their own businesses but are relatively well-known in the industry.

As for the previous version of "Star Citizen", it went from crowdfunding to selling ships, and even turned into a business model. It announced the progress every month and then sold the ships. It makes people feel that this game is about to become a Ponzi scheme in the game crowdfunding industry. It hasn't appeared yet.

Therefore, Chen Xu's official blog shocked many players.

‘What kind of operation is Mr. Chen doing! ? ’

‘Damn it, Mr. Chen, is this serious? ’

‘So don’t just talk about your expectations, at least take some action and register on the Nebula Game Platform! 1.5 million shouldn’t be difficult, right? ! ’

‘Not difficult? 233333. Brother, look at my platform inventory. The play time of "Escape" is 11 minutes. Do you think I meet the requirements? ’

‘That’s right, I strongly request Mr. Chen to change the conditions. Why do you have to pass the customs before you can participate? If I buy the game and don’t clear it, can I not participate? ’

‘That’s right, Mr. Chen, this kind of discriminatory practice is unacceptable! You are dividing our player base. Why do you want us to complete the game after buying it? ? ’

‘By the way, haven’t you noticed something? Why is the village's customs clearance rate so high? The dolls are in the underworld! ’

‘Brother upstairs, although the dolls are in the underworld, the eldest lady is really awesome! ’

‘Mr. Chen has the guts to open a MOD editor and let me turn all the monsters in the game into mature big sisters, and I’ll do it for you in minutes! ’

‘Brother, can your body handle this? ’

‘Brother Meng, currently the number of people registered on the Nebula game platform has exceeded 30,000. Friends who have passed the game should register quickly, and players who have not passed the game should quickly pass it! ’

'Clearance? It's impossible to pass the level in this life. I just tried it and I already peed! ’

Following Chen Xu's official blog post, many players who love horror games and have cleared all three games have logged into the Nebula game platform to register, and at the same time, they have made friends in major community forums to canvass for votes.

Some players who are very interested in this event and have "Escape" and "Resident Evil" in their inventory, but have not completed the game originally, are ready to enter the game to experience it at this time.

After all, in the eyes of many players, so many years have passed. Both "Escape" and "Resident Evil" were games many years ago.

As Lu Meng once said, people who have been separated for three days should treat each other with admiration.

Now they are no longer Wu Xia A Meng in the past.

Is this still scary? Is the VR version great?

So these players who bought the games but didn't dare to play them downloaded these two games again.

Then I walked around at the entrance of the mental hospital and the farm entrance, looking at the dark sky and weird atmosphere.

These players quickly made a decision.

Take care my friends, I'll take my leave now!

Even after so many years, I should still be scared to pee!

Let the real warriors be responsible for registering and gathering people.

When they buy the game, they assume it is already supported.
