Game Making: The Latest Chapter Begins With Healing the Player

Returning to the office from the rest area, Chen Xu stretched and sat in front of the computer.

Regarding the traditional terrorist activities of Nebula Games, as well as the science program he told Yang Xin and others before, Chen Xu had some thoughts.

The filming of this program looks like a suspense on the surface, but after the truth is revealed in the end, it makes people feel a bit dumbfounded and can't help but say that's it.

But Chen Xu knew very well that this program was not an entertainment program, but a serious popular science program.

Its purpose is to show those people who are backward in thought and still have feudal ideas.

Let them understand that the so-called 'bizarre' events they saw are actually just so ordinary and are not myths at all. The essence and purpose of the program is to break feudal superstition.

If you just watch the content of the program, it will look ridiculous, especially when you look at some citizens and villagers who swear by it as if they are telling the truth.

But looking back it makes people feel really sad.

Feudal superstition and traditional customs are two completely different concepts, and has feudal superstition really been eradicated from the beginning to the end?

Not to mention rural villages with backward economies and technologies, even in big cities, many people are deceived by so-called pseudoscience. New superstitions such as so-called computer fortune-telling are also emerging one after another, and some people are still being deceived.

Influenced by these points, coupled with the consistent tradition of Nebula Games, Chen Xu is also preparing to develop a game as a gift to players.

Of course, the theme is the theme, and the consistent tradition of Nebula Games cannot be lost. In terms of genre, Chen Xu has a more suitable target.

A Chinese horror game with a funeral background: "Fireworks"

In terms of game mechanics and content, this game actually has many shortcomings.

The most direct point is the reuse of scene materials in the game.

But the script and story of the game can be said to be very excellent.

It has a more connotation that is worth pondering.

Chen Xu sat in front of the computer and was completing some basic content settings.

As for horror games, Chen Xu has done it before, and for many players.

The mental hospital in Escape, the infinite corridor in PT, and Jack Baker's farm are all unforgettable existences for them.

But these games are actually more focused on Western horror, which uses hideous images, bloody and dark scenes to make players feel scared.

One of the manifestations of these horror games is that they use visual impact to make players feel fear, and at the same time, they also bring a sense of physical discomfort.

Among them, if I really want to say that I prefer the Eastern style, it is PT.

"Firework" is different. It is a very pure oriental horror style, or Chinese horror.

It does not use visual effects to affect the player's physiology, but uses a cognitive mode to make the player feel scary.

Because in the game, players are faced with traditional gold paper ingots and paper figures that are related to funeral culture, which brings psychological oppression.

But if you don’t know these contents, the fear it brings will be greatly reduced.

The real horror of this Chinese-style horror is not its appearance, but the core of thought it displays, the horror in the human heart.

What is scary is not the ghosts and gods, but the human heart.

The content of the entire game is not long, and the normal game process only lasts about three to five hours.

However, for Chen Xu, he was not prepared to make the same 2D style as in his previous life.

After all, the current Nebula games do not lack this kind of money. At the same time, unlike horror games such as "Resident Evil" and "Escape" where monsters are always chasing, "Fireworks" focuses more on an atmosphere, but it is not like PT gives you a sense of urgency that your life is hanging by a thread.

If I have to say it, probably what I feel in the early stage is the fear radiating from my heart, while in the middle stage, what I feel is the fear of people's hearts.

"Mr. Chen, this story..." Yang Xin looked at the detailed script in his hand with a painful look on his face.

"Fireworks" is not very big, and there are not many team members involved in this game.

Of course, despite this, internally everyone is still very active in wanting to be transferred to this project team. After all, it is led by Chen Xu, and everyone is really curious about this new game.

"People can't forget their origins, at least they shouldn't. It's been a long time since players have felt the heart-warming love. It's time for players to relive it." Chen Xu said seriously.

"This is clearly your bad taste, Mr. Chen!" Ruan Ningxue, who was standing next to her, couldn't help complaining.

God can’t forget his roots!

However, no one said much, after all, there was no need to worry about the debt.

Anyway, judging from Mr. Chen's impression in the minds of players, the probability of wanting to clear his name is almost zero.

………………

In early November, Chen Xu’s official blog and Nebula Games’ official website were simultaneously updated with the latest event description.

Many players have already been looking forward to this.

After all, over the years, the timing of a discount event for Nebula Games has basically been fixed.

Every time it is time for a big sale, players will prepare their wallets early and start the delicious shopping activity.

Not to mention various games with varying discounts.

Basically this is what happens in every big sale.

But what really makes many players curious is the surprise Chen Xu has prepared for them this year.

Compared with the previously announced masterpiece "Resident Evil: Village", this year's pre-loaded game on the Nebula gaming platform is a game called "Fireworks".

Because this is not the first time for Nebula Games, many players know that this game is obviously a horror game.

Otherwise, Nebula Games wouldn't have offered a limited-time 10% off sale on the price. Considering the size of the VR game, it's obvious that this is just a cabbage price.

It is almost obvious to tell the players that I am giving you a high-quality game at a bargain price, but whether you dare to play it or not is up to you.

At the same time, the background of the game also surprised many players because it turned out to be a Chinese horror-themed game.

This has also made many players curious about what this game called "Fireworks" is like.

After all, the name looks quite artistic!

Due to these reasons, although many players knew that Chen always wanted to mess with them in this wave, many players still had strong curiosity and were ready to buy and play. After all, the price and inventory of cabbage were high. It doesn’t hurt to add one.

Of course, there are also some players who are very determined. Horror games?

It’s impossible to play it by yourself, but wouldn’t it be nice to pass it through video or live broadcast?

After all, a VR horror game, shown through live broadcasts, and with countless barrages accompanying you, can you still get hurt?

But soon, these players realized how wrong they were.
