Game Making: Start By Healing the Player

When Chen Xu and his team developed "Super Mario: Odyssey" and "Animal Forest", as well as porting old games.

Some big news in the game circle also diverted the popularity of Nebula Games' involvement in handheld consoles.

That is, after the year, a group of game makers headed by Tenghua, NetDragon and foreign atrai started to promote new games one after another.

Regardless of whether it is at home or abroad, everyone has a tacit understanding of one word on the promotion of their own games: open world.

Sci-fi, urban, magic; FPS, ARPG, ACT; no matter what theme, no matter what type.

Anyway, for publicity, opening your mouth is opening up the world.

And the focus of publicity is basically divided into two points.

The map is played, and there are many tasks.

Obviously, these game makers have taken a fancy to a performance of "Red Dead Redemption: Redemption".

Real fame and fortune.

Similarly, various game manufacturers are about to come out with their brains in the promotion.

No way, although players are indeed very enthusiastic about the open world.

But the key is that so many pop up all at once, and they are all masterpieces.

There is something wrong with this.

In particular, domestic NetDragon and Tenghua have their own opinions, and they are also new works on the Universal VR platform.

It can be said that in terms of publicity, these two companies have invested heavily.

Among them, NetDragon developed an FPS-type open world. In a vast and exotic land, players play as an elite special combat team to attack the drug gang.

As for Tenghua over there, it is an old-fashioned ACT-type game. This is also an old series, but it has been going downhill. The main way to play is to mow the grass. This time, I also want to use the open world. A gimmick, an innovation.

I don't know if it's fun or not, but at least in terms of publicity stunts, NetDragon and Tenghua are already full.

These two are fighting to the death, and Chen Xu is very leisurely.

Let's play, anyway, Nebula Games has no plans for VR in the near future.

And the first version of the switch prototype has also come out.

Compared with the previous life, most of the technologies in the parallel world are readily available.

Especially the HD vibration, Chen Xu simply experienced it through a demo test.

For example, when falling from a high altitude to water, gravel, soil, metal, cement and other ground, it can feedback very well according to the vibration of the coil motor.

There's that feel to it of previous-life DualSense controllers.

In addition to the details, Chen Xu also asked Yan Xiong to keep an eye on it.

At least don't have the well-known drift event of the switch in the previous life. The player got the joystick drifted within two months, and finally had to pour WD-40 into it.

The handle itself is a consumable item, and it is impossible to say that it will never wear out, but the key point is that the damage rate of the joy-con of the previous switch was too high.

Of course, this is also related to Lao Ren's consistent material saving. After all, Lao Ren's quality control has always been a stalk, which also makes people laugh at how to make money from hardware equipment when this quality control goes up?

In front of you is a black prototype, including the handle and body are all black.

It is different from the red and blue classic colors of the previous life.

Of course, this color is easy to handle, not to mention red and blue.

You just want the seven-color rainbow can be made out for you.

The overall difference is not much from the previous life, but the details have been modified many times during the above period. After all, the technology of the parallel world is different from the previous life.

The most intuitive point is that it is more solid, and at the same time, the **** border that was originally criticized by the switch has also been improved.

In addition, the Bluetooth adapter added to the back system of the previous switch is now directly added, in addition to a built-in voice system.

Players can speak directly through tablet mode.

In addition to this one is the cassette.

Before that, Chen Xu also considered whether to add the setting of cassettes. After all, in the parallel world, digital games are a mainstream, and physical games are more used for collection.

However, in the later discussion with Yan Xiong, Chen Xu also found that the cost of the cassette in the parallel world is not high, which also made Chen Xu decide to keep the setting of the cassette.

Of course, like in the previous life, if the cassette is to be used, it is necessary to add a bittering agent. On the one hand, it is safe and on the other hand, it can be regarded as a publicity stunt.

Remove the handle of the switch in your hand, and then put it on the base to switch to the host mode.

Although there is no suitable game yet, it has also made some demos for testing functions.

It can be said that it is very perfect.

"How is Mr. Chen?"

"Some of the details can be adjusted, but generally there is nothing wrong." Chen Xu nodded and said.

"And Mr. Chen, the sample of the cassette has also been produced." Yan Xiong said to Chen Xu.

The cassette is not produced by their side, but outsourced, and Shenyou is responsible for the verification of quality control.

Including the corresponding patents, as well as the brand has already been applied for.

All that's left is to actually get the specs right and start production.

"In addition, not only the switch and cassette, but also the screen protector, protective case and subsequent handles, including the base and other peripherals, don't forget that we can all do it ourselves." Chen Xu said to Yan Xiong.

"Ah!?" Hearing Chen Xu's words, Yan Xiong was stunned for a moment.

"The screen of the switch is touchable, so players are not allowed to buy a protective film to stick it on?"

"There is also a protective case, just like a mobile phone case. As a handheld device that can be carried out, doesn't the switch need a case?"

"Although the joy-con handle is good enough, it doesn't mean that players don't need a normal handle."

"In addition, there are bags that the switch carries when going out. The fact that the game console does not make money does not mean that other aspects cannot make money."

"Of course the price is set, so it shouldn't be too expensive. Don't have only one official name in the end, and there is no cost-effectiveness." Chen Xu said to Yan Xiong.

When the switch handheld is launched, most of these accessories are needed by players.

Players need it, and they will definitely do it.

It's a crime to have money and not earn it!

………………

The days are advancing little by little, and May is approaching.

The main topic on the Internet is still the two new works of NetDragon and Tenghua.

During this period, there is nothing new.

However, during this period, the version updates of "Red Dead Redemption" and "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare" were regarded as a wave of existence.

And for many players, what they are looking forward to is the annual gameplay exhibition at the end of May.

It can be said that this year's exhibition still makes many players look forward to it.

Because of the recent propaganda war between NetDragon and Tenghua, the two are destined to have a **** fight at this exhibition.

But at this time, a gossip came out.

That is, Nebula Games will also participate in this exhibition.

And there will also be news about new handhelds and new games at the show.

It instantly attracted the attention of all players and industry designers and manufacturers.
