Game Making: The Latest Chapter Begins With Healing the Player

Every time after clearing a horror game, Song Ren would feel a sense of relief.

The only exception was when I played "Resident Evil: Village".

After all, apart from the fact that the puppet house is more like the underworld, the game between the lady in the front and the machine in the back is more enjoyable, and the scene of Ethan dying at the end is also moving.

As for the fact that some players speculated that Ethan was actually not dead and had written a short essay of tens of thousands of words, Song Ren didn't believe it at all. Anyway, he was regarded as dead as the protagonist of the game.

In this way, if there is a sequel in the future, the harvest will be full of surprises, which can be said to be a sure profit.

But this time playing "Fireworks" made Song Ren feel the same feeling again.

There are various traditional funeral supplies such as ingots, paper figures, and white lanterns, as well as horror legends such as ghosts breaking walls and summoning spirits.

Except for the fact that Song Ren felt a little bit of fear at the beginning of the game because of the background and environment of these Chinese funerals, the entire game was not scary at all.

No ghosts even appeared during the whole process, he was just scaring himself.

When Lin Lizun and Teacher Chen came to Zhao Xiaojuan's photo studio and learned some things about her past, Song Ren actually didn't have much fear in his heart at that time.

As the game progresses, the fear becomes less and less, replaced by sadness and discomfort.

It is disguised as a horror game, but in essence it depicts a sincere story that reflects social reality.

As the game progresses, players will uncover the truth in the game bit by bit and fully understand the plot of the game.

This feeling of fear was replaced by another feeling of heaviness.

Especially the children's song at the end, "Outside the pavilion, beside the ancient road...", it directly broke his defense.

Because one more female protagonist has died under Nebula Games.

Although the ending of Teacher Chen Qingsui is considered an open ending, the various death hints in the game, coupled with the many evil deeds of Nebula Games, made players lament.

Regarding the whereabouts of Chen Qingsui, Song Ren felt that there was a high probability that the person was missing.

While sighing, Song Ren also exited the game warehouse first, then opened the Nebula Game APP on his mobile phone, entered the trophy achievement list, and silently sent the "Fireworks" clearance achievement he had just obtained to Zhang Yi.

No extra words are needed, an achievement trophy is enough to express what he means.

While Song Ren began to provoke Lao Zhang, many players on the Internet who had cleared "Fireworks" were also intensely discussing various topics in the game.

After all, there are so many points worthy of debate in this game.

'ah! For this plot, don’t cut it! Stop it! ’

‘I finally understand the meaning of the slogan at the beginning, ‘Speak science, break superstition’! ’

‘What the hell! Playing a horror game didn't scare me to the point of peeing, but it made me cry! ’

‘It’s obviously a horror game, it’s all about scaring people, why is it so tragic! ’

‘So everything is a world where Lin Lizun communicates with the dead? Only the beginning and the end are the real world. Teacher Chen who is investigating with Lin Lizun is just a ghost. Will he be drowned by people from the newspaper in the end? ’

‘Although it is not stated explicitly in the game, it is hinted at through various links, such as the red umbrella, the unsent resignation letter, and the phantom of Teacher Chen at the end. ’

'certainly not! Isn’t the last photo post realistic? ’

‘That’s right! Teacher Chen is definitely still alive, just like what Ye Jingshan wanted to do in the end, live in another identity. ’

‘On the surface it is a horror game, but the plot behind it describes a tragedy in the context of a cycle of poverty. ’

‘It’s so uncomfortable! ! ’

‘Damn it, I thought it was a horror game, but it made me cry while playing it! ’

'When the children's song played at the end, everyone was in tears! ’

‘May the other world have no feudal superstitions, no sins, only simple fireworks, beauty and happiness. ’

‘Feudal superstition kills people! ’

‘My body will not rot in the earth, I will die like a bird in the sky. ’

The game process of "Fireworks" itself is not long.

Although there are some declassified contents interspersed in it, you can basically pass it step by step.

No need to think at all.

In one night, most players have already finished the game.

On the community platform of Nebula Games, countless players expressed their feelings in the community forum.

Especially some players who were originally afraid and chose to learn about the game through videos and live broadcasts, thinking that they would not be injured, never expected that this game actually had a hidden knife in it.

At the end of the game, it was obvious that it was Chen Qingsui in the game.

The main reason why the feeling of horror is reduced during the game, apart from the lack of scary scenes in the plot and game, is that the character Chen Qingsui will come to Lin Lizun soon after the initial stage and follow him to investigate the tragedy of the family extermination.

There was a companion next to him, and she was a good-looking girl, so the fear was naturally alleviated a lot.

But in the end, this unexpected stabbing blow can be said to have left the player heartbroken.

Of course, it’s not just Chen Qingsui. It can be said that every key character in the game is given depth and makes people feel emotional.

Some of these characters are hated, some are loved, and some are pitiable.

They are fictional in the story, but they allow players to see the real, vivid and vivid faces in the real market.

Tian Xiangrong and his wife turned to superstition about ghosts and gods for help, and their thoughts gradually became distorted and terrifying. In order to resurrect their son, they sacrificed their daughter-in-law and poisoned her sleeping pills, which made people feel chills on their backs.

But these all exist in reality. The opening title of the game is "Speaking of Science and Breaking Superstitions", but to this day, countless people still believe in ghosts and gods.

Zhao Xiaojuan longed to leave her sickly parents-in-law and leave this gloomy home. She once came to this small town for love, but now her emotions have been completely wiped out.

She was like a bird that had been trapped for a long time, eager to hover and see the colorful world outside.

Ye Jingshan was abducted and trafficked to this mountain village. His adoptive parents treated him as their own but concealed the fact that he was bought. In order to repay the kindness of his adoptive parents, he gave up his dream of becoming a professional forensic doctor.

He didn't know the truth until the end, but his adoptive father and adoptive mother never treated him badly when they raised him. Such a conflicting mentality made him unable to leave the mountain, unable to leave in the name of Ye Jingshan: Ye Jingshan, forbidden in the mountain.

Chen Qingsui was originally an undercover reporter looking for clues about reselling cultural relics, but her experience as a teacher and her own story made her want to sincerely help the children here who have never been out.

But in the end she disappeared due to interests. Although the game did not clarify whether she was dead or alive, many players actually hoped that Teacher Chen would just leave incognito instead of being killed.

The birds are trapped in the cage, the leaves are imprisoned in the mountains, and the ears fall into the clear water.

Trafficking, superstition...

The story is fictional, but don’t the things that lead to this story still exist in reality?

Even compared to games, reality is more powerful, bizarre and profound.
