Chapter 166 This fills you with determination, —_—

Turn-based game?
Upon hearing this type.

Some old water friends feel bad.

"How did you make a turn-based game..."

"The last hope is really gone now..."

"I don't mean to look down on Brother Chu Zi's game production ability. The main thing is the turn-based game...it, alas...forget it."

There was a sigh of relief in the barrage.

Are there boutiques in turn-based games?
Of course there are.

In Blue Star's 30 to [-] years of game development history.

There have indeed been countless turn-based masterpieces, masterpieces, and even masterpieces.

But times have changed.

Everyone is racking their brains to think of new tricks, trying to start from those game types that have been proposed but are not yet perfect.

According to market feedback, this type of game also sells better than turn-based games.

It's not that turn-based games are not good, it's because everyone has been throwing up after playing for so many years.

It was hard to look forward to the dawn of the game world.

How did you come back here again?

When Mr. Chu mentioned the turn-based game, Chester smiled even more.

He raised his hand as if he was sure of winning.

"Mr. Park, get ready and go on stage to accept the award."

at the same time.

on the stage.

Mr. Chu had already left the stage, and in the empty center of the stage, the six large screens at the top began to flicker.

The 20 staff behind the scenes have already started the game as the player's perspective.

What the audience is currently seeing is the game interface controlled by player one.

Player No. [-]'s requirements are very simple. Facing the different routes given in the game, he usually only takes the main route.

If the option is given in the game.

Then the game will follow the choices made by most players.

To put it bluntly, it is to cater to the normal three views for game experience.

Accompanied by a simple and mechanical electronic synthesis sound as a background sound.

The screen of the game is also presented.

The font that pops up in a white frame in the dark basemap
Under the legend
And in the middle of the game's initial interface, which is based on black and white, a small red love heart popped up.

After experiencing the competition in the last few days of the Asian Tournament, players have become accustomed to all kinds of games with excellent picture quality.

Looking at the somewhat shoddy initial interface of the game, he couldn't help but frown slightly.

And the BGM can't be regarded as unpleasant, but it's definitely not pleasant.

It's just a few monotonous electro-mechanical melodies bouncing repeatedly.

Soon, the screen changed.

The game entered the initial plot introduction.

"Long ago, the blue star was ruled by two races:

humans, and monsters.

One day a war broke out between the two races.

After a long war.

Humanity has won.

They sealed the monsters underground with a magic spell.

Many years have passed...

ibot hill
20XX

Legend has it that those who climbed the mountain never returned. "

A very short introduction can be regarded as giving the audience a preliminary understanding of the worldview setting of this game.

【Name the fallen humans】

Time to choose a name.

Unlike the naming of other games, he didn't ask players to give themselves a desired name.

Instead, name the fallen human.

Player No. [-] skillfully typed the word "No. [-]".

The purpose of this step is also to allow the audience to see multiple perspectives more intuitively.

Once the main storyline of the game of Player One is finished, the plot is not well presented.

It will switch to No. 2, No. 3, and so on.

After entering the game screen.

The first to appear in front of everyone.

It is a small yellow flower bed, except for the flower bed, the outside world is completely dark.

A human child stood in the middle of the flower bed, and he couldn't tell the gender, but he had a particularly intuitive impression, which was his expression. (In the UT official design, the protagonist has no gender, so he will be used as a proxy in the follow-up)
His expression was very sluggish, showing a state of—_—.

Someone in the audience started whispering.

"No...what's the matter with this style of painting?"

"What era is this, this style of painting is too rubbish..."

"The protagonist's vertical painting is too careless. I believe it is drawn with feet."

"My kids draw better with crayons than this, really."

"—_—丨丨丨"

"And this music, it also feels like a product of the last century..."

"This is the best game designer in China? I don't think so."

"Let's take a look first, maybe there will be surprises later."

"I don't think so... As far as the picture quality is concerned, even if the game settings are really good, the picture quality is still a failure. It can no longer be recognized by me."

With the discussion of the audience, the game continued.

Following the No. [-] control character, he walked through a dark corridor and turned into a door.

A small flower appeared in the new picture.

Some viewers found that the tone of this game likes to use black as the background.

This scene is also the same, only the small flower in the center of the screen is like a sunflower drawn by a crooked child, and the surrounding area is still dark.

However, this little flower has five senses, and she took the initiative to say hello to the protagonist.

"Hi, I'm Xiao Hua
A flower named Xiaohua!
Hee hee hee

You must be new to the Underworld, right?

Oh my god, you must be very confused, right?
Someone has to teach you the rules of the game here.

Xiaohua was not talented, so she had to come forward. "

The moment the conversation ends.

At the bottom center of the screen, a square white frame appears, with a small red heart in the center.

Somewhere below.

It's 'LV1', 'HP: 20/20', and there is a yellow blood bar next to it that represents the blood line.

Xiaohua is responsible for playing the role of novice guide.

Inform the player that this red heart is your soul. Your soul is weak at the beginning, but it can become stronger as the LV increases.

"Damn, I'm still looking forward to something different. Isn't this a traditional turn-based game for fighting monsters and upgrading?" Danmaku couldn't help complaining when he saw this scene.

"Levels, blood bars, all given out, the next step is to give skills / dog head"

"Brothers, I didn't look at it anymore. The picture is not good, the sound effect is not good, and the gameplay is too traditional and boring. I will moisten it first."

The judges also looked at each other, and they all saw a trace of doubt in each other's eyes.

Immediately, they shook their heads slightly, as if exchanging opinions.

And in the next moment.

in the game.

Xiaohua said that she can distribute some LVs to players.

As it spoke, several white dots appeared on the top of its head.

Xiaohua calls it 'friendship particles', as long as the more these white dots are connected, the more experience points the player will get.

"Are you ready? Catch them all as much as you can!"

After the words fell, player No. [-] manipulated the red heart to move within the white square frame.

and try to catch those white 'experience points'

just.

Those so-called 'experience points' penetrate the heart like bullets at the moment of approaching the heart.

The blood volume also dropped crazily at this moment!
From 20/20, it plummeted directly to 1/20
BGM, stop abruptly!

On the pitch-black screen, Xiaohua no longer has any color on her body, but is like withered white.

The atmosphere instantly became weird.

Its originally kind smile has also become ferocious and terrifying.

"You idiot!
In this world, either kill or be killed!

Who would miss such a great opportunity?
die! ! ! "

There is no narration and dubbing, only the text is presented.

But it is precisely because of this extremely quiet expression that people feel a trace of unusual fear.

The judge's expression changed.

The expressions of the audience also changed.

Even the barrage that had been talking about just now was slightly broken.

No one expected that this game would be played like this when it came up.

According to common sense, this little flower is the "novice guide" that exists in many games

But in this game, this novice guide deliberately guides the player, and then wants to kill the player? ?

What the hell is this?

Never seen a game like this!

Different!
This game seems a little different!
This thought appeared in many people's minds, and their originally loose eyes also became more fixed unconsciously, and they cast their gazes on the big screen.

on the screen.

In Xiaohua's ferocious and trembling laughter.

More and more white particles emerged, surrounding the love heart.

Seeing that it is about to devour the weak love.

suddenly.

The blood volume is instantly full!
Xiaohua showed a puzzled expression on her face.

Immediately afterwards, a woman with a sheep face and a black and white robe appeared.

She seemed to use a flame magic attack to disperse the little flower.

and dominate the screen.

With a loving smile on his face.

"What a cruel guy, to torture such a weak and helpless child."

She briefly introduced herself, calling herself 'Toril', the manager of this ruins.

Come here every day to see if any humans have fallen.

Fortunately, I arrived in time today.

And let the protagonist follow her to a safe place.

After passing through a dark door.

Finally, the tone of black is no longer in front of my eyes.

In the eyes is a small pink yard, and there is a small flowerbed covered with bright red petals in the center of the yard.

In the middle there is something shining like a star.

Out of curiosity, Number One stepped forward to interact with it.

But a confusing dialogue popped up.

"The shadow of the ruins looms above, filling you with determination."

"What is full of determination? Is there any connection between the two?" The audience was at a loss.

"That's weird...read it again."

"Your HP is fully restored!"

With the display of the functions, the players suddenly realized.

After working for a long time, it turned out that it was just a save point that could restore full blood.

But these words still make the audience can't help complaining.

The foundation of this copywriting seems to be not very good...

"How is it? Xiao Zhang, can he play this game?"

Jianghua City, Cultural Bureau.

Gong Shanwei was leaning in front of the computer at this time, wearing reading glasses, squinting his eyes and concentrating.

Beside him also surrounded a few young boys and girls, all from the Bureau.

On the last day of the Asian Tournament, because Mr. Chu is going to appear on the stage.

As the most dazzling talent in Jianghua City in recent years, Gong Shanwei even put down all his work and turned on his computer to watch the live broadcast of the game.

But because of his older age, he doesn't know much about the game culture among young people today.

So he called a few young and clever juniors in the bureau to watch with him and help him analyze and analyze.

If he can win the Asian Tournament, then he, the director of the Cultural Bureau, will be proud of himself.

When you go back and talk to the tax bureau and ask the tax bureau to reduce or exempt part of the game industry tax, your voice will be louder.

Maybe even slap the table.

"Tsk...how should I put it?" Xiao Zhang bared his teeth.

"The game has just passed the introductory stage, which is a small summary of the plot. The picture quality and music are not in line with the aesthetics of current mainstream games, but the setting seems to be a bit novel."

"Can you win the championship?" Gong Shanwei asked eagerly again.

"It's still early...but if the tone keeps going like this, maybe..." Xiao Zhang glanced at the other people awkwardly, and didn't say anything more.

But Gong Shanwei knew what he meant.

It's choking.

……

The game continues.

The sheep-headed man named Toriel, after bringing the protagonist into the underground world.

explained for him.

The underworld is full of puzzles.

The ancients combined door opening with pastime.

Only by solving the puzzles can you enter the next room, please adapt to the emergence of these puzzles.

As soon as this was said, some players smacked their tongues at the scene.

"That's it? After a long time, the alternative turn-based game Chu Zi mentioned is just a combination of puzzle-solving and escape elements similar to "The Witch's House", right?"

"Somewhat disappointed!"

But soon, the audience found out.

This game talks about solving puzzles.

But in fact, the mystery is not very clear.

Toriel kept emphasizing that she wanted to exercise the protagonist's adaptability.

But always worry that he can't finish.

Solve all these puzzles for him first.

All the player has to do is to pass through the next level while watching Toriel's caring and comforting dialogue.

The barrage couldn't help laughing.

"This sheep-headed man is just like my own mother. He said that he doesn't clean up the room, and he doesn't do anything quickly. But his hands are not idle, and he directly helps me with all the work."

"It's not too much to call a mother sheep."

And after the player actually entered the first battle.

Everyone was stunned.

This so-called first battle is nothing more than some special underground fighting methods taught to the protagonist by the sheep mother in order to train the protagonist's ability to survive independently.

The player is facing a training puppet.

But the pop-up reminder of the encounter has made countless people very familiar.

"You encountered a training doll."

【Battle】【Action】【Item】【Benevolence】

"Pokémon?"

"Isn't this the prelude to the Pokémon encounter? Whether it's the special effects of the screen, or similar sound effects, including the copywriting, they all have the same feeling."

"Fuck, brother Chu Zi is afraid that he wants to get the lawyer's letter from Mr. Ren?"

But soon.

All viewers noticed something was wrong.

This way of fighting...

Different!
It's not traditional turn-based at all!
In the traditional turn-based system, there are usually several options for fighting, supplying, and escaping.

When you choose to fight, a skill box prompt will pop up.

But the turn-based concept in this game.

When fighting, there is no skill at all.

There is only a combat prompt cursor that is like an electrocardiogram, but more abstract than an electrocardiogram.

The cursor will quickly move back and forth on the left and right sides, and the player chooses to land in the middle part, the higher the damage that can be done.

Conversely, if the cursor falls on the left and right sides and deviates from the middle, the damage will be lower.

This is not so much a battle, but more like attacking with a sense of rhythm.

And it's not just the main characters who attack differently.

Even the opponent's attack method is not a simple skill counter.

Instead, it will float into the white frame from all directions in a barrage-like attack method.

All the player needs to do is to manipulate the hearts to avoid these barrage attacks.

After a certain period of time, it is the player's turn, and so on.

As the gameplay of the game is gradually revealed to the audience.

At the scene, the expressions of some audience members began to change subtly.

The judges also changed their sitting positions.

The barrage started to discuss.

"??? Jiangzi is a turn-based system?"

"I have to say... the turn-based system of this game seems to be a bit different!"

"Ren Datang: The misunderstanding is resolved!"

"I seem to have a little interest in this game. I've never seen this kind of alternative turn-based system... How can I say it's itchy?"

"Brother Chu Zi is still you, Brother Chu Zi, your thinking is indeed different from your imagination!"

"Don't rush to brag, right? I admit that this game is a bit special, but it's just the beginning. If the whole process is just like this, this game will still be very boring... What the hell?? "

While the barrage was still discussing.

The next scene suddenly appeared on the screen, making everyone's eyes locked on the screen!

Originally, everyone recognized the role of Toriel.

Along the way, not only helped the protagonist resolve the crisis.

There is also a flood of maternal love, fearing that the protagonist will not be able to pass the test, she took the initiative to help him solve one mystery after another, and was nicknamed "Goat Mother" by the audience.

Afterwards, the protagonist was brought back to his own little room, where the room was warm and the BGM was very soothing.

She also took the initiative to cook for the protagonist, for fear that he would starve to death.

A vivid image of a real mother.

But the game still needs to be played.

Human beings who fell from the ground are also doomed to not be able to stay in the territory where monsters live for a long time, which is the root of the contradiction.

So, look for the exit and return to the ground.

It has become the main goal of the player.

When the protagonist is exploring the house, he finds a secret passage and tries to leave.

The mother sheep followed her quietly.

Force the protagonist back into the house.

After many repetitions, her tone will become more and more serious.

"Every human being that fell met the same fate.

I've seen it, time and time again.

They come.

They leave.

they die.

Silly boy, if you leave the ruins.

that person……

Asgore...

will kill you.

So, don't do anything stupid, go back to the house"

Until the player tries to escape for the Nth time.

She blocked the exit of the tunnel, and told the protagonist with a cold face.

"Do you want to leave that much?
Well, there is only one solution.

Prove yourself.

Prove to me that you are capable of surviving on your own."

The voice fell.

A black and white flickering frame that only appeared when encountering a monster popped up on the screen.

Immediately, the protagonist entered the battle screen.

And the opponent...

It's Toriel!

The person who is called the sheep mother by countless viewers.

She does not allow the main character to leave.

It is inevitable for the protagonist to return to the ground as a human being.

Then.

There is only one outcome left.

kill her.

Kill this person who has been teaching the protagonist, helping the protagonist since just now, and asking for warmth like a real mother.

All the players who were staring at the screen couldn't help but thump in their hearts, and their hairs stood on end.

"Fuck! Don't!!"
