Chapter 261 (1/2)
Chen Mo begins to explain some key points of the two games of Stanley's fable and ash.
These two games are not difficult to do at the current level of Chen Mo's team, and these two games have very good repercussions, which are very suitable for filling out the game library.
Stanley's fables is a typical meta game. The whole process is from the first person perspective. All that needs to be done is the dialogue of scenes and plots of various branches. As long as the script is finalized, most of the workload is on the scene, which is not difficult to do at all.
And ”ash” is a meta + act game. As for the elements of act, the relatively complex ones are skill move system (move table) and monster design, mainly to make a very good sense of attack, so that the players can fight the monsters more smoothly.
In addition, the main plot selling point of ash is similar to that of Stanley's fable, which contains meta elements.
The common point of these two games is that they are relatively easy to develop and do not need so many complex scenes. Although there are many plot branches, they are not difficult to do as long as the plot is finalized.
In Chen Mo's past life, both of these games are popular because they are meta games.
Meta games can be translated as ”meta Games”, or ”games about games”. In plays and novels, this element often appears, but only a few of it are actually used in games.
In short, in a normal game, players are playing from the perspective of God, and the characters in the game do not know the existence of players. But in meta games, when the dimension wall is broken, the characters will know the existence of the players and talk with them.
The specific performance is that when you are playing the game, looking at all the actions of the characters in the game and feeling that you are a God, the characters on the screen suddenly turn their heads to look at you and say coldly, ”don't point out my behavior.”
When the dimension wall of game and reality is broken to some extent, it is a meta element.
Excellent meta games make players feel surprised, surprised and even played.
……
The content of these two games is not so much, and the playing method is not difficult to understand. After Chen Mo explained them briefly, everyone understood the design intention of these two games.
This time, there are not too many questions. Although we are surprised by this game mode, on the whole, we all think it's quite interesting.
Moreover, these are two small games after all, and the sales volume is not important. Especially, Chen Mo has made great achievements in mobile phone, PC and VR platforms. He has enough capital to willfully try any game type he wants to try.
The two games will be developed at the same time, with Qian Kun in charge of AISI, Su Jinyu in charge of Stanley's fables, and Zheng Hongxi in charge of the plot structure in the two games.
As for Chen Mo himself, he has more important things to consider.
……
In his studio, Chen Mo is leaning on a chair, frowning and thinking.
On the computer screen in front of him, there are some data about thunder game platform.
At present, thunder game platform has 12 games in total.
Mobile games: flappybird, Plants vs. Zombies, my name is MT, thunderclap, lifeline, Yin Yang division, happy elimination and joy elimination.
