I Make Games To Scare Crying Players

  Chapter 31 The reverse plot of the face

  The following meeting went very smoothly.

  After accepting the concept, everyone no longer questioned the various subsequent settings, but only asked the reason.

  For example, the main location of the game "Face" is a large mansion.

   Players have to explore the families who used to live here alone in this house and learn what happened to their families.

   Regarding this, Unlimited Online Entertainment is curious why it is limited to indoors. If the location is placed outdoors, wouldn’t it be better to explore and attract players better?

   Facing this question, Meng Shu just smiled.

   These people have too little knowledge of horror, and they don't understand that the horror crisis indoors is far more ferocious and exciting than the outdoors.

  Because the open environment is already neutralizing the horror atmosphere to a certain extent.

   But if it is indoors with walls everywhere, the sense of horror is very effective.

  This is why "Escape 2" is not as scary as "Escape 1"

  Because "Escape 2" is mostly outdoor scenes, only a few indoor schools have the long-lost horror flavor.

  So he simply explained the reason, and when he was convincing, he passed on to the next link.

   Soon, Unlimited Online Entertainment raised a curious question about the gameplay of the game.

   means why the game requires players to explore the past historical residents of the house. Even if there are the same clues, the plot seems fragmented and not clear enough.

   On this point, I hope Meng Shu can learn about shooting games. The plot is simple and direct, not so complicated, so that players can understand it easily.

  But Meng Shu said that this is the charm of exploring and decrypting games.

  Let players discover step by step, search step by step, and finally sum up the truth of the incident, the satisfaction and sense of accomplishment they get will make them feel that their efforts are worthwhile.

   It also makes players feel like they are really enjoying the game.

   Instead of chug all the way like in shooting games, take a breather after getting injured, come back to chug again, change the map, continue chug, clear the level at the end, and delete the mission experience from the game.

  After hearing this explanation, Unlimited Online Entertainment stopped saying anything, but became curious about the detailed plot of the game.

  [Mr. Meng, we are curious about the exploration and decryption you mentioned. Can you tell me about the plot behind this game? ]

   "Of course, I was going to leave it for later, but it's okay to show it to you in advance, so first of all"

  Meng Shu rolled the mouse, quickly swipe across the PPT, and finally stayed at the back position.

   At this time, on the projection screen, there are thumbnails of sketches.

   Obviously some kind of concept design draft.

  Meng Shu zoomed in on one of the sketches, and above it was an environment similar to a house.

   But in it, three people were tied up.

  However, even if it is a sketch, everyone in the meeting can vaguely see that it is an adult woman, a little boy and a little girl.

  Looking at this picture, everyone is confused, waiting for an explanation.

  Meng Shu didn't hold back, and spoke slowly.

  But his first sentence stunned everyone.

   “As soon as the game starts, the main character dies.”

  WTF! ?

  The protagonist died at the beginning?

  However, before they could ask, Meng Shu continued.

   “The main character shoots his own family first, and then commits suicide. This is the opening of the game.”

   As he spoke, he pointed to the 3 people **** in the sketch with the mouse, which was self-evident.

  These 3 people are the protagonist's family.

  Deputy Director Li at Unlimited Online Entertainment was not calm anymore, and spoke directly, with a very strong curiosity in his tone.

  [Mr. Meng, since the protagonist died at the beginning, who is the player controlling? ]

   "The protagonist."

  Deputy Director Li: .

  [Mr. Meng, I'm confused, so I won't interrupt you. There must be a reason for your design. ]

  Meng Shu raised the corner of his mouth and shook his head.

   "Don't worry, the protagonist's suicide at the beginning is required by the plot. The player behind the scenes is still the protagonist, but the protagonist who lost his memory after death."

  “One of the players’ goals is to find out why the protagonist committed suicide.”

  Meng Shu rolled the mouse again, this time, switched to another sketch.

   Above is a well, from which several huge pipelines are connected.

   On the ground, there is a large pool with dead bodies floating on it.

  Everyone looked at the sketch, waiting for an explanation.

  Meng Shu took a sip from the water glass, moistened his throat, and began to explain.

   "This picture is the sewage treatment plant that will appear in the game process, and our protagonist works in this treatment plant."

"The setting of the plot is like this. Above this processing plant, there is also a pharmaceutical factory that is secretly conducting a spiritual experiment. The anti-stress medicine that restores sanity in the game comes from here. So in the setting, The protagonist is also from this pharmaceutical factory. And he has developed a hallucinogenic drug that can be transmitted through water, thus gaining a certain right to speak."

   "The organization was very happy, colluded with the police station and the hospital, used the entire town in the game as an experimental area, and appointed the protagonist as the person in charge."

   "At the same time, I selected a historic mansion in the small town and transformed it into an experimental observation room with secret rooms and secret passages to facilitate the collection of residents' mental data."

   "Under such an opening chapter, the first unknowing family moved into the house, which is the Lucy family I mentioned in the PPT."

   At this moment, Mr. Liang of Infinity Online Entertainment expressed that he had something to say.

  Meng Shu smiled and motioned to please speak.

  [Mr. Meng, according to your plot design, could it be that the protagonist caused the deaths of those families? ]

   As soon as the words fell, Xu Hong and the three also looked at each other in dismay, obviously they also guessed.

   After all, this is too obvious.

  Renovate the house, so that the residents who move in don't know that they are under surveillance, and they don't know that there are outsiders living together in their home.

  Thinking about it makes people shudder!

  [So the purpose of the protagonist doing this is to experiment, right? ]

   "Of course, the next thing is the story of Lucy's family."

"The protagonist uses various methods, coupled with hallucinogenic drugs transmitted through water, to successfully make Lucy become insane and isolate her parents. And her parents took her to the hospital for treatment, but the treatment worsened, because the hospital is also an organization involved. one of the

   "Finally, under the bewitching of the protagonist, Lucy broke off her jaw alive, and completed the experimental data collection of the first family."

   "The police are also one of the participants in the organization, so they blocked the news in time to facilitate the continuation of the experiment. So it was the turn of the second family, the newly moved Dolores family."

  At this time, Mr. Liang from Infinity Online Entertainment heard this and already understood the general plot of the game.

  [I think I know what kind of game this is, Mr. Meng, you have great ideas, and I support you very much. But what about the main character committing suicide? ]

  Meng Shu slid the PPT to another sketch. It was a couple who seemed to be very much in love.

   "I naturally feel guilty for doing such a bad thing. So the protagonist has been taking anti-stress drugs produced by the organization for a long time to maintain a stable life."

"Have you seen this concept map? In my setting, the protagonist has a good career and love, has a son and a daughter, and lives an ordinary life. But he has worked for the organization for more than 20 years, what he knows It's really too much. So."

  Meng Shu slid the PPT again and came to another sketch.

   Above is a conceptual drawing of the mansion's darkrooms and secret passages being sealed.

  “.It is the protagonist’s turn to be placed in the mansion.”

  Xia Nianzhen couldn't help but feel a chill down her spine when she heard this.

  This setting is too ruthless

  Such a horror mansion, do I have to do the scene too?

   "Afterwards, the anti-stress medicine taken by the protagonist was replaced with a stress-relieving medicine. At this point, the long-term accumulated stress and guilt were instantly released, and the protagonist who couldn't bear it naturally had a mental breakdown and killed the whole family, and then committed suicide."

   Speaking of which, Meng Shu overturned the PPT and overturned the first sketch with three people tied up.

   "So at the beginning of the game, the protagonist commits suicide. Then the unknown player manipulates the consciousness of the protagonist to review the fate of those families in this mansion to see clearly his sins."

"Generally speaking, the whole process of the game is the journey of self-salvation after the death of the protagonist. The main gameplay is focused on the players to experience the tragic experience and despair of those families. After understanding their stories, they choose Let the protagonist go to the ending of redemption, or the ending of depravity."

   "Everything, let the player decide for himself."

   "This is the plot of "Face", I didn't go into too much detail, I hope you can understand."

   Silence—

  The conference room fell into a brief silence.

  Xu Hong and the others were already frowning, imagining the plot in their minds.

  To be honest, this plot is indeed deeper than those simple and straightforward chugs on the market.

  At the very least, the plots just mentioned are all explored and discovered by the players themselves.

  Wait until they know nothing, gradually understand, and after finding out the truth, they come up with a super big reversal plot where the protagonist is actually the villain. The surprise and shock will definitely be very interesting!

  So Xu Hong and others are already full of expectations for this game.

   Unlimited Online Entertainment fell silent, apparently discussing with the mute turned on.

   After a while, Mr. Liang's voice sounded from it.

  [Mr. Meng, I think I understand your game. The plot you created is really very thoughtful. It can be seen that you are fully prepared, and it also shows that you have put a lot of effort into this game, and it should be inevitable. Since you are so optimistic, and this game is indeed very good, then we will not doubt your vision. This game.]

   After a pause, Mr. Liang said the next sentence firmly.

  [The support amount will be approved within three days, and we will fully support Unlimited Online Entertainment! ]

   Some settings of the game have been clearly explained, and the production can start immediately. I will directly shorten the development cycle of the game, and will not write in detail, and get into the theme as soon as possible.
