Game Making: Start By Healing the Player

With the end of the "Minecraft" early access trial, online players have different opinions on the game.

Some people think that this game seems to be a little interesting, and the building block-style play of this kind of block is also relatively novel.

There are still many players who have not figured out how to play the game "Minecraft" at all.

Because the whole game doesn't seem to have any purpose.

In "Famine", players also need to develop themselves slowly in order to survive.

For example, in Famine, if the player does not hurry to collect resources, then in the first dog attack, there is basically only a dead end.

And with the change of seasons, there will be some bosses in addition to dogs.

It can be said that survival in "Don't Starve" is not a simple thing, even if it is a simple mode.

But in "Minecraft", many players feel that it is not too easy to survive.

The most dangerous time in the game is at night.

But it's not the same as being in front of a bonfire in Don't Starve.

The vibe on Minecraft nights is also a little scary though.

But it's easier to get through than Don't Starve.

Dig a hole, bury some soil, count one, two, three, four or five, and you don't have to sleep in bed, wait seven minutes until the daytime is basically out of danger.

As for the hungry words, cattle, sheep and chickens.

There are not many such creatures in "Minecraft".

If it's a luxury to live in Don't Starve.

That's a very easy thing in "Minecraft".

Of course, the higher difficulty is another matter.

It can be said that as long as you don't have to die, your life can be guaranteed.

In such a situation, many players do not understand what the point of the game "Minecraft" is.

This is also the reason why Chen Xu added various novice guides to Minecraft.

Because players in the parallel world have no concept of sandbox games, let alone open worlds and the like.

Therefore, Chen Xu needs to give some guidance to let them understand the fundamental characteristics of the game's charm.

When they understand it, it's time for players to let themselves go.

When the industry is discussing the tepid performance of "Minecraft".

Chen Xu and Nebula Games finally made some moves.

Many domestic game media portals have jointly released news and news articles.

"In Minecraft, you can even go to Bianjing, the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty! 》

"Is this really just a pixel game? 》

"On how to reproduce the Qingming Riverside Map in Minecraft! 》

How could Chen Xu be indifferent to publicity? He had already arranged it.

The topic of "Minecraft" broke out in an instant.

At this time, many industry designers and players have been attracted.

But what followed was a flurry of confusion.

Qingming Riverside Map?

What is the connection between Qingming Shanghe Tu and my world?

Is it possible that Nebula Games used building blocks to put together a picture scroll of the Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival in "Minecraft"?

Many players are stunned and have no idea what it means.

Players who have played or have not played, after seeing these news, clicked on the video links in these articles out of curiosity.

The first paragraph of text begins: 'This video is a real game scene, all buildings can be reproduced in the game...'

When the players saw this text, there was no reaction.

But the next moment after the video content appeared, all the players were shocked.

"Fuck! My roommate asked me why I was kneeling in front of the computer!"

"This is a pixel game? Is this a pixel game? Is this really the pixel game I've been playing the other day?"

"Awei is dead! This picture, Chen Xu, don't fool me, this is a CG animation, right!?"

"Fuck, it's really a picture of the river on the Qingming Festival! I thought you were just relying on a picture, why did you tidy up Bianjing for me!?"

Countless players who clicked on the video were instantly stunned by the eye-catching picture.

Everyone couldn't believe their eyes.

It’s okay to say that you haven’t played it, but players who have played the game “Minecraft” are extremely excited and confused at this time.

Because the picture in this video is the same as the game they played before?

The first thing that appears in the video is a hazy drizzle.

With the raindrops falling on the ground, it seems to have crossed the span of a thousand years and returned to the banks of the Bian River a thousand years ago.

In the rainy weather, the rain fell on the deserted Bianliang street.

It seems to be a metaphor for the crisis hidden behind this bustling city.

The melodious background music sounded, and the next moment of the video shot slowly lifted into the air, including the entire Bianliang and Bianhe.

The camera slowly zooms in on the buildings on the street, so that people can clearly see the buildings on the streets and the attic of the temple.

Through the streets, canals, sky lofts, fields, the rain gradually stopped.

The sun rises little by little, and the sun shines on the streets of Bianliang.

Countless people laughed and laughed slowly on the streets of Bianjing.

Then the picture of the video starts to change with the lens.

Vendors selling things on the streets and alleys, as well as tourists.

There are poets, merchants, and dignitaries in the boats traveling on the canal.

On the road outside Bianliang, there are merchants who owe cattle and horses.

In the fields are working farmers and playful children.

With the advancement of time, Bianliang gradually entered the night.

The painting boat is moored in the middle of the Bian River, and countless Kongming lanterns are floating in the sky.

Then the picture of the video gradually fell into darkness, and the melodious music slowly disappeared.

And after that, there is another tidbit.

Using clipped and fast-forward fragmented footage, it reproduces how this Qingming Riverside Map was built bit by bit.

From nothing, it means that these things can be reproduced in the game as long as the player wants them.

In addition, Chen Xu did not use the subsequent rendering of the light and shadow in Shanghe during the Qingming Festival, and completely relied on a light and shadow special effect of his own game to show it.

Although after the later rendering, the expressiveness must be better, but for ordinary players, it is obviously a little fake.

It's just like a photo. It's a good photo without makeup. Isn't it a lie?

But even so, the "Qingming Riverside Map" created by "Minecraft" itself has completely stunned the players.

And in this demonstration, Chen Xu also used the latest technology.

That is the AI ​​performance technology that Galaxy Intelligence Technology has been developing before.

The props I used last year are now finally countdown.

Including Zhongyue, has applied for relevant patents for the latest technology.

Chen Xu also used it for the first time in "Minecraft", or the demonstration of the Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival.

From the effect, it can be said that it has completely met Chen Xu's expectations.

However, in terms of current optimization, using the latest AI technology is still relatively resource-intensive.

The player's configuration is also relatively high, so Chen Xu also asked Qin Yi and the others to make more optimizations on the Nebula game side.

But for players, obviously from the video, they can't feel it at all.
