Game production: I really have landed

Chapter 85 Dream Linkage
"Ah! Ah! Ah!"

Pu Xingyu looked at the nun who was completely dead with her head tilted on her screen, her heart ached and she couldn't breathe.

After the development of "Darkest Dungeon", the entire development team took a one-month paid vacation.

Some people go out to travel, take photos and send them to their Moments. Friends who are envious don't want them.

Someone took this opportunity to chase girls while the iron was hot, and now they are showing pictures of holding hands.

Others just don't hear what's going on outside the window, just stay at home playing games and chasing dramas all day long.

For example... Pu Xingyu.

It seems to be back to the second semester of the senior year when I don't plan to take the postgraduate entrance examination, and every day is as refreshing as Chinese New Year.

However, when Pu Xingyu opened his own game "Darkest Dungeon", this refreshing feeling ended.

Although he had some thoughts about those particularly disgusting mechanisms in the game during development, he was still stimulated after actually playing the game.

A huge problem immediately posed in front of us.

"Do you want to play mods that break the balance of the game?"

He also read the recent Dark Dungeon announcement, so he knew that the creative workshop was flourishing, and he was also very happy about the rising evaluation.

After calming down with the funny pillow in his arms for a long time, Pu Xingyu still decided to be a hardcore player, but let's put the game down first, and wait for half a year to think about it before talking about it.

With an idea in his heart, Pu Xingyu's mood improved a lot.

What an empty vacation...

Pu Xingyu, who was bored, started to use a series of communication platforms related to games, such as Tieba, Bihu, and Big Black Box.

And under the influence of big data, a series of discussions related to "Original Heart", "Ori", "Mirror" and "Dark Dungeon" were quickly posted.

Of course, in Pu Xingyu's own words, he is constantly monitoring market trends.

Looking at it, it really made him discover something that could save him from the boring vacation.

"I'm a long-time fan of Mr. Luo. I've been playing Mirror since it first came out. I also like Ori quite a bit, but I really can't like this Dark Dungeon.

But seeing that there are a lot of discussions about this game in the game circle, I really want to play it, which is very annoying. "

"There really isn't any movement towards mirror DLC at all. It's fine if someone can give Mirror some of our own DLC in the creative workshop."

"As for the artist in Mirror, it's not that there's nothing in the creative workshop, it's that people are more deadly than others, and they have to be thrown away when they compare goods."

"The face control players are furious. The art of the Dark Dungeon is not bad, but it's really not what I want."

As a planner, understanding market demand is one of Pu Xingyu's current jobs.

A considerable number of face control players are not interested in the current gothic style, so can we start from the creative workshop and give everyone some paper figurines to go to the dungeon?
As one of the developers of "Darkest Dungeon", it is too simple to change the texture of the heroes in the game.

Just in terms of art, Pu Xingyu himself can't draw.

But it doesn't matter, he won't, someone will.

Pu Xingyu took out his phone and sent a message to the person signed "Sister Fei" on the phone.

"Sister Fei, what are you doing recently?"

"No, but I really want to."

Pu Xingyu:?

He blushed a little, and the female driver of the art team started the car, and he just felt overwhelmed.

"Sister Fei, tell me something serious."

"What I'm saying is right."

"..."

"Okay, stop joking, just say something, I'm free recently."

Seeing that the topic finally got back on track, Pu Xingyu wiped off the cold sweat that didn't exist on his forehead, and typed carefully:
"Sister Fei like this, hasn't the creative workshop recently solved the problem that many players think the game is too difficult? I have visited the forum in the past two days and saw some players because they can't accept the gothic style of the dungeon. They prefer The Ori one is better looking.

So I was thinking, can I make a mod like a hero skin to try to attract as many players as possible. "

"As expected of Mr. Luo's right-hand man, you are here to pull coolies, right? Xiao Xiaoyu."

"Sister Fei, President Luo doesn't know about this. If you're busy, I'll find someone else."

"I'm just joking with you. Boss Luo treats me well. Even if I have something to do, I must do it well first."

Then everything is ready, Pu Xingyu silently gave himself a thumbs up in his heart.

But Qian Fei's next operation was really to punish Pu Xingyu. She first sent a location, and then:

"Come here, let's talk about it."

Although he was half expecting and half apprehensive, after Pu Xingyu arrived at Qian Fei's nest, the things he imagined did not happen.

Qian Fei was wearing homely clothes today, with a casual ponytail tied behind her head.

After Pu Xingyu told her in detail about his inner thoughts.

Sitting at the table, Qian Fei's eyes were very focused, and she used a pencil to outline a cartoon character with a strong dungeon flavor with just a few strokes.

"Look at this."

Pu Xingyu took the sketch from Qian Fei's hand, and what appeared in Qian Fei's pen was a sissy version of Disma's image.

Big and white, with exaggerated to explosive body proportions, the posture of holding a weapon is also quite restored.

nice!

This was the first thought in Pu Xingyu's mind. It is definitely possible to attract players, but Pu Xingyu still has no idea whether it will have a very good effect.

After a moment of silence, Pu Xingyu raised his head, looked at Qian Fei in front of him, and asked hesitantly:
"Sister Fei, have you ever played mirror?"

Looking at Qian Fei's teasing eyes, Pu Xingyu just wanted to find a crack in the ground to get in, Taishe is dead!
But this look only lasted for a moment, Qian Fei just thought for a while and said:

"I understand what you mean."

With just a few more strokes, an image with long ears and an explosive figure reappeared in Qian Fei's pen.

Only this time, Qian Fei deliberately painted the character's skin gray with a pencil.

Dark Elf!
Although in order to fit the basic painting style of the dungeon itself, and the scaling of the characters needs to be adjusted, anyone who has played mirror can tell at a glance that this is a dark elf.

However, the dark elves at this time are different from the original assassin-like equipment. Instead, they hold a knife and a gun, and the posture of the characters is exactly the same as the image of Disma in the dungeon.

"Dream linkage! Players will definitely like this thing!"

Pu Xingyu said excitedly.

Looking at the dark elf Disma described by Qian Fei, Pu Xingyu had thoughts such as Yangzi crossbowman, female warrior Leonard, and female pharaoh mystic scholar in Pu Xingyu's mind.

Amidst the heated discussions between the two, ideas were implemented one by one, and finally gathered in the Dark Dungeon Creative Workshop, a mod destined to sweep everything.

"mirror"!
