Chen Zhao took off his glasses and placed them on the table.

“Qiu Hengyang asked curiously,””what’s the matter?”” You don’t want to play because you think it’s too bad?”” ”

“””No,”” Chen Mo shook his head.””I’ve already cleared all of them.”” ”

Qiu Hengyang was speechless.

“The gameplay of these horror games wasn’t long, and most of them had some loopholes and shortcuts, so he had already completed it while most of the audience was still trying it out. ”

“After all, these video game designers were all freshmen and they had only prepared for the horror game for less than a month. It was impossible for them to make a twenty-hour game in such a short time, but it was already good enough. ”

“After all, Chen Mo had made a pixel game like FlappyBird when he had just graduated ... ”

“After that, it was the judges ‘review segment. They would comment on the works that had the highest votes and the judges would express their opinions. ”

“This design competition was different from the ones Chen Mo had participated in a long time ago. There was no judge’s veto, but Chen Mo’s vote. ”

“However, Chen Zhao had only used this “”one vote”” a few times. It could only be said that most of the works were mediocre, and Chen Mo didn’t like what the judges didn’t like. ”

“In the end, a film called “”blind”” won the first prize. ”

“The reason why this game could stand out was because it made a very big highlight, and that was innovation. ”

“For horror games, it was a very common and useful method to limit the players ‘vision through darkness and stimulate the fear of the dark instinct in people’s hearts. ”

'',

“This was the key to this game. The protagonist entered a haunted house during the day, but after entering, he found himself blind. ”

“It was only later that he realized that he wasn’t blind, but that a ghost was covering his eyes, severely limiting his vision. ”

“There were two types of items in this haunted house. One was blood, and the other was water. If one wiped their eyes with water, they could see their surroundings, but not the ghosts. If one wiped their glasses with blood, they would be able to see ghosts, but not their surroundings. ”

“Players could collect water and blood and apply them when they felt that it was appropriate. At the same time, the types of ghosts here were different, and there were different ways to deal with them. ”

“Although the level layout and details were still a little childish, the idea was very good, so it won the unanimous praise of the judges. ”

“After the awards ceremony, there was a routine summary speech. ”

“Actually, most of the contestants came to the competition not to win the prize, but to see Chen Mo. ”

Chen Mo was the number one idol of many people who wanted to enter the gaming industry.

“Moreover, Chen Mo would always talk about the concept and ideas of the game design during his closing speech, and it was beneficial to understand even a little. ”

Chen Mo walked onto the stage and the audience immediately burst into applause and cheers.

Chen Mo was used to this kind of scene. He didn’t have a script and was just improvising.

“””Good morning, everyone. Let’s cut to the chase. First of all, I would like to thank everyone for overcoming their fears to participate in this design competition. After all, the theme of this competition is a horror game.”” ”

“””It’s possible that a lot of contestants are stunned when they get this theme. Many people have never dabbled in this area, so they can only force themselves to do it. That’s why the difficulty of this competition is still quite high. It’s not easy to produce a batch of outstanding works. “” ”

“””Here, I’ll briefly share some of my experience in making horror games. I’ll also explain why blind won the first prize even though it doesn’t seem to be of particularly outstanding quality. ”

“The audience and participants were all listening attentively. How could the “”little experience”” of Seth be small? even now, the horror legends of outlast and Silent Hill were still circulating in the world. ”

“Chen Mo continued,””horror games are games that bring horror to the players and make them feel fear.”” What was the key to a horror game? Was it a hideous monster? Was it some Strange Music? Was it a sudden attack? Or a large amount of blood, or even physical pain?”” ”

“””You can say that they are all above, but they are all just appearances. The key to horror games is to create an atmosphere.”” ”

“””Take Silent Hill as an example. Why can it give players a completely different experience from traditional horror games? It’s all because of the atmosphere. “” ”

“””Please remember that the unknown is the scariest. That’s why many horror movies use darkness to block the players ‘vision.”” ”

“””Blind was able to stand out because of this. Just like outlast, through the settings of the night vision camera and battery, the field of vision became a resource that players could collect and obtain. At the same time, they could use this to construct different difficulties. For example, in the highest difficulty, you can only carry a maximum of two batteries. “” ”

“””The unique thing about blind is that it splits this resource into two. Clear water is like a night vision camera and a battery, while blood is like an item that can see ghosts. This way, the strategy and playstyle of the game will be more varied. “” ”

“The audience nodded. They had been scared out of their wits when they were playing the game, but they were also very excited when they found water and blood. ”

“A high difficulty horror game that scared everyone away was not a good horror game. The key was to keep the players hanging, give them a little hope, scare them a little, and then step by step. This was sustainable development. ”

“At this moment, a contestant in the front row raised his hand and asked,””””Then may I ask, other than limiting the field of vision, do you have any better ideas?”” ”

“””Of course,”” Chen Zhao nodded with a smile.””I do.”” ”

“When he said that, everyone’s interest was piqued, and they all looked on eagerly. ”

“””There’s a new game coming out next week,”” Chen Mo said,””you’ll know when you buy it.”” ”

......

“After the design competition,””blind””, as an outstanding piece of work, would be edited by Thunderbolt Entertainment’s professional designer before it was put on the Thunderbolt gaming platform. ”

“This was something to be excited about for a new videogame designer, as a recommendation spot on Thunderbolt gaming platform could easily bring in tens of thousands of dollars a day. ”

“However, the players were more interested in the new game that Chen Mo mentioned. ”

“Obviously, this game was made on the spot. It took less than a week to make, so it shouldn’t be a big production. ”

“However, according to Chen Mo, this game was definitely a new invention, at least in terms of gameplay, it would be different from the mainstream horror games. ”

“Moreover, Chen Mo’s horror games were scary ... ”

“Many people were both curious and afraid, waiting for the new game to be released with extremely contradictory feelings. ”
