Game Making: Start By Healing the Player

Sitting on the sofa in front of the TV, Zhang Yi and Wang Han each held a switch handle. Among them, Wang Han held the blue handle in his hand, because it was the one who controlled Mario, while Zhang Yi was in his hand. Hold the red one.

Why?

Who made him say "cassette, sweet" before?

Now he has been reduced to a ruthless tool man.

"Here! Here! Hurry up and break this box!" In the waterfall country, Wang Han directed Zhang Yi to control the hat Kaipi to smash some wooden boxes into pieces.

Two people play in console mode.

After all, they have already experienced the handheld mode of the switch before at the exhibition.

And now in this console mode, although the screen is definitely not compared with PC and VR.

Larger screen and better resolution than handheld mode.

It also brings a better experience.

At the same time, the art of "Super Mario: Odyssey" itself is not that realistic.

This cartoon animation style does not make people feel crude at all, but has a different kind of beauty.

"Should we go to the next scene?" Zhang Yi cautiously gave his own opinion.

"Wait! I think there must be a hidden moon here!" Wang Han expressed different opinions.

Compared with the previous exhibition, due to time constraints, it was not possible to carefully explore every corner of the map.

Now at home, it is natural to play whatever you want.

Carefully explore every corner of the map, and under the water of the waterfall, Wang Han also discovered a special detail.

"Hey! This canvas-like thing can't get in!" Wang Han was surprised for a while.

Intuition told her that there must be a moon behind this canvas.

But unfortunately, he controlled Mario for a while, but he never found any mechanism.

"It should be at the next level to get something, or maybe this is a new collection item that can only be unlocked in the second week." Zhang Yi said.

After all, this method is not common in games.

For example, in "Dark Souls", there are some items that cannot be obtained in the first game, and can only be obtained in the second game.

The current "Super Mario: Odyssey" is obviously the same.

One controls Mario and one controls Cap Kepi.

The content of the first two levels, Hat Country and Waterfall Country, is already very rich.

But after entering the country of sand, the next scene themes are simply more energetic than one level.

First of all, after coming to the Kingdom of Sand, Kuba stole the ring of the Kingdom of Sand in this level, in order to prepare a wedding ring for Princess Peach.

In this level, players can attach themselves to the shells, and can also shuttle through the pipeline, instantly turning the total three-dimensional world of the game into a two-dimensional world, and directly becoming a horizontal scrolling game, which is full of surprises.

At the same time, there are some small side quests in the game, such as helping the villagers drive back the lost sheep.

As for the reward, it is naturally the month of power.

In addition, at night, a group of small ghosts with scarves will appear on the sand of the entire sand country.

At this time, you can spend all the gold coins to ride a very violent mechanical beast, and you can rampage in the desert.

The only thing to pay attention to is that the speed of this organ beast is too fast, and it rushes over the head accidentally.

From here, the content of the game is getting richer and richer, and more interesting possession props are coming into the country of forest.

For example, after passing the level in the map of Forest Country, new elements will appear, and you can even attach to the tank to start a tank battle.

Flowers like the sun, collect them with a hat, and put them on Mario's back to run like a rocket in his butt.

And although the game seems to be simple, there are many difficulties in the real experience in the game.

After this level is cleared, a special secret room will be triggered. At this time, after falling to the cliff, you will not die, but will return to a dark underground new scene.

Here the player needs to find a seed to be able to pass the level.

Like the previous levels, there are many moons of power hidden in this underground world.

But it is also in danger, because there is actually a living Tyrannosaurus rex chasing and killing the player.

"My God! This Tyrannosaurus Rex is still alive!"

Wang Han, who entered the underground world of the Forest Country for the first time, was stunned when he saw the Tyrannosaurus rex rushing over.

In the waterfall country of the second level, she had seen this Tyrannosaurus Rex, and she also experienced a wave of controlling it with a hat.

But in this underground world, this Tyrannosaurus Rex is actually alive!

"The speed is so fast! Hurry, you are possessing your hat!" Wang Han, who pressed ZL while shaking the handle continuously, made Mario roll up in the game and shouted nervously.

Because she found that the speed of this Tyrannosaurus Rex was so fast, even faster than her rolling speed.

"No way, this Tyrannosaurus Rex seems to be invincible!" Zhang Yi next to him tried to hit the Tyrannosaurus twice with his hat, and then expressed his helplessness.

On this side, Wang Han had already been caught up by the Tyrannosaurus Rex and took another bite, leaving only the last of the three health bars.

"Hey, one person, one life is ready to be replaced!" Seeing that only the last bar of Wang Han's blood bar was left, Zhang Yi smiled.

The previous hurdles are really not difficult.

Unless someone else did it on purpose, it's still hard to die.

but now?

This is not his intention, but this Tyrannosaurus Rex really can't deal with it!

"Humph!" Hearing Zhang Yi's words, Wang Han snorted and switched to the game mode option.

【Help Mode】Switch!

Reading the current map again, in the stunned expression of Zhang Yi next to him, Mario's HP in the game has become six bars.

And if you fall to the cliff, there will be bubbles that will bring Mario up from below. At the same time, after being damaged, he will stay still and replenish his blood.

The difficulty of the game is greatly reduced!

This is the help mode specially prepared for beginners in the game.

After all, platform jumping is still very difficult.

Although the difficulty curve of "Super Mario: Odyssey" is reasonably designed, there will also be some people who will face the situation of the level, so this help mode is still very necessary.

And unlike soul games, the art style of "Super Mario: Odyssey" is destined for players who like this game. Hardcore players will obviously be relatively small, and more of them are light casual players, so this help mode It is very necessary.

Of course, there is one difference from the previous life, that is, Chen Xu added a brand new option, that is, players can only keep this amount of blood lift to ensure that players will not die violently in the game.

But the arrow pointing the way can be turned on or off, allowing players to explore the world of Odyssey more freely.

In the past life, many players of "Super Mario: Odyssey" were actually very entangled.

On the one hand, if you want to make the game less difficult, you can prevent yourself from dying on the jumping platform and the monsters along the way.

On the other hand, I don't want to be guided by this kind of official guide, I want to explore the level alone.

In the end, it is good to open it, or not to open it.

Zhang Yi was stunned as he watched Wang Han, whose physical strength had become six, pitifully and helplessly, he grabbed the red handle and controlled Kepi to fly left and right.

He never imagined that there was such a thing!

"Here! Play Mario for you!" Looking at Zhang Yi's expression next to him, Wang Han, who was holding the handle, smiled and handed it over.

"Hehe!" Without speaking, Zhang Yi also laughed.

"Stop giggling, find your way."

There are many players like Zhang Yi and Wang Han.

After getting started with "Super Mario: Odyssey", both single and double players have experienced the unique fun of this game.

There are more than ten themed kingdoms with different styles, dozens of possessing abilities with different abilities, and the rich content makes players addicted to the world of "Odyssey" and cannot extricate themselves.
