Chapter 636 New Game Type

Time goes back a little.

Tianhu.

Mou Feng also watched the meeting on the morning of the second day of Linmu Carnival.

Then, he also witnessed the release of "Hollow Knight" and "Dead Cells".

To be honest.

He was more surprised than the players when he saw these two games.

2D game?

Linmu Studio's new work is actually a 2D game?

Although Linmu Studio said that it was a tribute to the classic game type, when watching it, it really felt like Linmu Studio was doing something fancy.

In addition, even if it is a 2D game, the quality of "Hollow Knight" and "Dead Cells" is very high.

However.

Because of the mobile game craze some time ago, he inevitably thought of more...

This made him forget about the fact that Lin Yao did not appear at the opening ceremony.

As for what he thought of... It's simple, it's a mobile game.

Although the players didn't think so.

But he is a practitioner after all, and he is also knowledgeable.

As soon as he finished watching the press conference, he thought of a possibility, that is-porting "Hollow Knight" and "Dead Cells" to mobile phones.

Although the operation method is still a problem, although whether the current mobile phone function can accommodate such a game is still a problem, although the attitude of players is still a problem... Although there are countless problems.

But.

In the final analysis.

The two new games announced by Linmu Studio at the morning meeting this time are indeed not large in size compared to previous new games.

It seems that there is indeed a greater chance of being ported to mobile platforms...

How to say it.

Probably because of the impression brought by the switch handheld mode.

He always feels that this thing can be played on a mobile phone?

And Linmu Studio is not as simple as releasing a game that gives people such a feeling.

Instead, it has released two games in a row.

This impression is even more profound...

"Could it be that Linmu Studio has already laid the groundwork?"

The moment the morning meeting ended, when Mou Feng learned that these two games would be launched on both the host and PC platforms, he had such a doubt-

Linmu Studio does not value the mobile game market, and this carnival is not simply for traditional game players.

They have begun to lay the groundwork for truly full-platform games!

Including full platforms for mobile phones!

Perhaps the new game announced this time is a signal. Maybe after a while, there will be an icon of Future S1 behind the two icons of Switch and PC!

However,

after the meeting, Mou Feng went to visit the player community again.

His idea was a little unsteady again.

Because the players were obviously looking forward to these two games, and they didn't think about paving the way for mobile games.

In addition,

countless players also mentioned that there would be two new games released at the "New Trend" meeting in the afternoon...

It made people feel that the meeting in the morning might just be a tribute to the old game types by Linmu Studio, and a big wave would come in the afternoon...

So,

Mou Feng hesitated again.

However,

when the afternoon came,

the first game of the new trend meeting, "Overcooked", was announced.

Mou Feng was sure that his idea was right!

"This is definitely a prelude to mobile games!"

Mou Feng sat in front of the screen, looking at the cute style of the live broadcast screen, "Overcooked", which also made people wonder "Can this thing be played on a mobile phone?", and said firmly.

If the two new games announced by Linmu Studio in the morning

were to pay tribute to the classic game types.

What about this afternoon! ?

The publicity said it was trendy, and the gameplay concept of Overcooked was indeed trendy, but the feeling the game gave people was in the same vein as the two new games this morning!

They are all subtle in size, and they always make people wonder, "Can this thing be played on a mobile phone?"

From this point of view, although the concepts of the two meetings of classics and trendy are different, the purpose is the same!

"Hollow Knight", "Dead Cells", "Overcooked" and the games that will be announced soon will all be games of this type of subtle size!

Linmu Studio is good at this!

They did not directly announce the mobile game at the Linmu Carnival.

Instead, they used this method to play the sausage-cutting tactic!

"Two games that pay tribute to classics, two cooperative games with cute graphics and novel gameplay! You are really amazing!"

Mou Feng looked at the screen and was inexplicably excited.

This is because he thought he had seen through the purpose of Linmu Studio, and he had a subtle feeling that Linmu Studio might be no different from other game companies.

It turns out that they can't give up mobile games!

It turns out that they are also excited about the huge revenue of mobile games!

It turns out...

The more Mou Feng thought about it, the more excited he became.

Until.

Wang Mang's voice was broadcast through the laptop's speaker.

He suddenly came back to his senses.

Looking at the screen.

Then.

Thump thump thump...

the creepy piano sound suddenly sounded!

He didn't hear Wang Mang suddenly say "cooperative escape" after "Overcooked".

But.

He witnessed it with his own eyes...

the stage lights turned off instantly.

Michael Myers, wearing a blue jumpsuit, a mask on his head, and holding a kitchen knife. Slowly walked out of the darkness and walked into the falling moonlight...

Under the moonlight.

Michael in a blue jumpsuit was looming and dark. The

heavy breathing was clearly audible because of the mask.

Then.

He raised his hand, and the kitchen knife in his hand was exposed to the moonlight, reflecting a pale white color.

At the same time, the blood on the tip of the kitchen knife was reflected in the pupils of all the audience...

This was matched with the increasingly rapid monotonous piano sound.

It was as if.

He was standing in front of everyone.

Seeing this scene.

Mou Feng took a sharp breath, and his whole body was shaken, and then: "?????????????"

This... is a cooperative game? ? The cooperative game announced later in "Overcooked"! ?

He had the same idea as Li Yu.

And he hadn't recovered yet.

Li Yu and other players at the scene hadn't recovered yet either.

Another beam of moonlight fell again.

Then.

Zila -

the sound of a chainsaw being pulled came.

Then came the tragic sound of the saw chain turning.

A sturdy man holding a chainsaw, who looked like he had just walked out of a slaughterhouse, slowly walked under the second beam of moonlight.

Then, waving the chainsaw, he danced crazily...

His chainsaw was stained with scabby old blood, and his face was a strange mask made of human skin, and his dance was stiff and uncoordinated...

... Crazy.

When everyone saw this character, the first thought that came to their mind was madness!

This kind of madness directly magnified the anxiety in the players' hearts.

Accompanied by the life-threatening background music.

The meeting venue.

A low cry sounded...

"Fuck...!"

Then,

players kept raising their hands and desperately stroking their other arms, trying to smooth out the goose bumps on them.

But it wasn't over yet...

The third beam of moonlight fell again.

And this time,

there was no sound of a chainsaw. There was

only a rustling sound, as if something was rubbing against the ground.

And soon,

the audience knew what was rubbing against the ground.

It was a person.

A woman in a pale white dress, with thick waist-length hair covering her entire face... She slowly crawled over from the far end in an extremely twisted and weird posture.

Compared with the previous two,

she didn't even make any footsteps, it was very quiet.

Not to mention that there was a madman dancing crazily in front of her, because with the contrast, she looked like a lady.

But,

this silence,

did not bring much sense of security to the audience.

As the woman with black hair covering her face and white clothes fluttering climbed into the moonlight, she slowly raised her head and looked at the camera.

The thick black hair covering her face seemed to be showing signs of slipping off.

And seeing this scene, in the live broadcast room,

in an instant.

"No! Don't show your face!!!"

"Damn it, I'm scared... Don't let me see your face!"

"Please bless me!"

"No! Please don't show your face! I won't see it!"

"Fuck!! Why did the style change suddenly!?"

"..."

Real-time comments soared instantly.

Many viewers who were watching the fan meeting alone raised everything around them that could block their vision and blocked it in front of their eyes.

They looked like they wanted to see but didn't dare to.

As for the venue.

Li Yu felt his heartbeat slow down half a beat when the other person's thick black hair was about to fall

. He was completely paralyzed.

Fortunately.

In the end.

The black hair didn't fall.

However.

Sadako's true face was not revealed, but the fear it brought was even stronger...

And the next second.

The fourth beam of moonlight.

fell.

"Hahahahahahaha..."

Crazy laughter came from far and near.

With the sound of high heels hitting the ground,

a sexy girl in OL clothes slowly walked into the moonlight.

With a twisted smile, blood on both sides of her red lips, she held a small paper cutter with human tissue debris on the blade in her hand, and slowly looked at the camera.

Sexy and crazy.

With full of twisted malice.

She raised the hand holding the paper cutter, then put it to her lips, and screamed with a twisted expression: "Say my name!"

This is the first character to appear and have lines.

The first three characters.

Although some of them made a lot of noise.

But none of them spoke.

Until.

This character appeared.

And coincidentally.

Most of the players knew her...

So soon.

After a low cry, a player whispered back: "Bloodthirsty witch... Catherine." And   there were far more than one

players who answered with a shocked face ...   At the same time.   Tianhu.   Mou Feng heard the sharp and crazy "say my name", and he shuddered and suddenly came back to his senses.   He stretched out his hand and pointed at the screen: "Fuck!!!"   This is not a game that makes people wonder, "Can this thing be played on a mobile phone?"   Rather,   this is a game that children can play! ?   This is a cooperative game? ?   ...   Five minutes!   Five minutes!   Various demons and monsters appeared one after another.   It was like a demon exhibition, and also like a gathering in hell.   Various twisted, weird, crazy, and abnormal creatures appeared one after another, standing in the moonlight, and then looking at the audience.   The projected moonlight is getting more and more.   Every time the audience thinks that they have gotten used to it, there will be a new terrifying character that refreshes their cognition.   Crazy teasing the audience's tense nerves.   Finally,   a total of eighteen demons appeared in the moonlight.   Finally,   after the last demon appeared, the   next one to appear was no longer a demon, but a normal human.   The players' tense nerves finally relaxed a little.   And the moment the first normal human appeared, Li Yu   immediately leaned back, slumped on the back of the chair, slowly breathed a sigh of relief, and loosened his clenched hands.   Only then   did he realize that his palms were full of sweat...   Li Yu wiped his hands, then raised his head again, looked at the nervous human character on the screen, and muttered to himself:   "What the hell is this game..."   "Ah——"   Li Yu was interrupted by an extremely sharp scream before he finished speaking.   He shuddered, and his waist instantly left the back of the chair and straightened.   On the screen,   the human character appeared, and the style suddenly changed.   A young woman with short golden hair walked slowly into the moonlight with a panicked look.   It was quite normal here.   But the next second.   Behind her,   there was a dull sound of footsteps!   Then.   The sharp and urgent music sounded as if a demon was approaching.   The young woman with short golden hair looked back, then immediately screamed and ran forward.   She ran away from the moonlight and ran away from the area that the camera could capture.   The link of the human character's appearance was interrupted like this.   The dull footsteps got closer and closer, and then a huge figure flashed and chased forward.   And on the screen,   it immediately switched to the promotional video...   Li Yu: "..."   The promotional video of the game is not complicated, it is simply... a horror movie.   Ordinary people who are weak, pitiful and helpless run around in the face of powerful, cunning and insidious evil spirits.   Or they scream and run around in the face of the pressing killer, or squat and tinker with the generator, or are chopped down and hung in the air by the iron hook through the shoulder blade...   In short, the gameplay of the entire game is basically shown in the promotional video.   However,   the audience has no time to think about the gameplay at this time.   They are still immersed in the confusion of "it was clearly "Overcooked" in the last second, but now it is a horror movie.   " So,   until the promotional video was over,   many players actually didn't understand how to cooperate in this game... how to cooperate.   Instead, they were shocked again after the promotional video was over...   On the stage,   the game promotional video had just finished.   There was a click.

The lights came back on.

Perhaps it was too abrupt, or the sound of turning on the lights was too loud, or perhaps it was because the previous promotion of Dead by Daylight left such a deep impression.

Anyway,

the moment the lights were turned on,

many players subconsciously took defensive positions, or raised their hands to cover their faces. Some even raised their legs.

They faced the stage in a crouched position.

For example, Li Yu… was in such an embarrassing position.

This made Wang Mang, who was standing in the center of the stage again, feel very embarrassed…

His only feeling was…

Uh…

Let’s not say that these were all Lin Yao’s ideas.

Otherwise, Lin Yao would do all the bad things again…

Fortunately,

the audience at the scene was just because the contrast between Overcooked and Dead by Daylight was too strong… The second game had well-shaped and twisted characters, the atmosphere was well-set, and there was music as a bonus, plus Linmu Studio played a lot… In short, it was just a slight stress reaction.

It wasn’t because they were really timid,

so it was quick.

After realizing that it was only the lights on the stage that were on, and not the stage full of twisted evil spirits,

many audience members reacted and put down their hands awkwardly.

Wang Mang also spoke at the right time to ease the embarrassment: "This is the second new game of our afternoon meeting, called - "Dead by Daylight."

"This is a very interesting game."

"I will introduce it to you in detail next."

"And considering that the temperament of this game is quite different from the previous game "Overcooked", I won't invite my colleagues to come up."

"Let's talk about this game first."

"..."

Compared with Zhang Tian, ​​Wang Mang seemed more mature, after all, he was older.

However. As soon as

he said this.

Whether it was the audience in the live broadcast room or the audience at the scene, words like FUCK came to their lips...

You tm also know that the temperament difference is indeed quite big! ?

You tm also know it! ! !

Then why did you put it after "Overcooked"! ?

Then you kept saying it was a cooperative game! ?

What kind of cooperative game did you think it was!

Damn it!

"First of all, although the game "Dead by Daylight" requires players to cooperate, our own definition of this game is not a cooperative game."

"Internally, or more accurately, Lin Yao calls this game a 'survival horror escape asymmetric competitive game'."

On the stage.

Wang Mang didn't know that the players had a lot to say, so he continued to speak.

And his words had a good effect.

Hearing the new term "survival horror escape asymmetric competitive game", the players immediately stopped complaining.

Instead, they showed an interested expression.

"As for what is a 'survival horror escape asymmetric competitive game'...survival horror escape is the literal meaning, and asymmetric competition... is very simple."

Wang Mang saw the expressions of the audience below the stage, smiled lightly, and said while pacing: "As the name suggests, asymmetry means that players will be divided into two different hostile camps, and one camp will be obviously stronger than the other camp."

"This is asymmetric competition, this is "Dead by Daylight."

As his voice fell.

The title of the game appeared on the big screen.

"In each game, there will be 5 players participating. One of them will play the role of a ferocious evil spirit, using a first-person perspective, while the other four will play the role of survivors, using a third-person perspective."

"The goal of the players who play the role of survivors is very simple, just one - to survive!"

"Because of the third-person perspective, you will be able to better observe the surrounding environment and avoid those ferocious evil spirits.

In addition to avoiding, you also need to repair the generators on the map to open the escape door and escape."

"This process is cruel, because you are weak and have almost no counterattack power, so you need a certain amount of cooperation... For example, someone needs to restrain the evil spirits to help others get time to repair the generator."

"For example, you need to divide the work reasonably and repair the engine as quickly as possible."

"For example, you need to help your companions with treatment as much as possible, because the injured companions will keep groaning."

"Of course... under strong pressure, players can also make cruel and correct decisions."

"..."

As Wang Mang explained.

Real-time game screens began to appear on the big screen on the stage.

Positioning, escaping, repairing, treating, saving people...

The gameplay is not difficult.

It can even be said to be simple.

However,

the dark and terrifying map, the various terrifying sound effects and atmosphere, and the unique gameplay...

what the game reveals

is really too novel and too attractive...

In the audience,

Li Yu raised his head desperately.

His tense nerves relaxed.

The scenes of playing this game began to emerge in his mind...

"As for the players who play as evil spirits, although the first-person perspective will obstruct your vision, you will have powerful abilities. Each different evil spirit will also have special abilities."

"And your goal is also very simple - don't let anyone escape!"

on the stage.

Wang Mang stopped, paused, and began to introduce another camp: "You have to chase the escapees, attack the escapees, and then sacrifice them."

"But be careful, chasing a escapee for too long will allow other escapees to quickly repair the generator, making it easier for the escapee to escape, so you also need to make a choice..."

"And after you chase and cut down the escapee, you need to move the escapee to the hook and sacrifice him. When the escapee is first hooked, he will not be sacrificed immediately."

"His teammates can rescue him, and the escapee also has a chance to break free on his own. You can guard and watch him being sacrificed."

"But in this way, other escapees will have plenty of time to safely repair the engine in a non-threatening environment and then escape smoothly..."

"And if you leave the prey and chase other escapees, his teammates will come to rescue again..."

"So, although you have powerful abilities, it is not easy to stop everyone..."

On the big screen on the stage.

The picture changed.

Begin to demonstrate the gameplay of the evil spirit camp.

It was in stark contrast to the perspective of the survivors just now.

The evil spirits were powerful and invincible.

They had unparalleled oppression...

Offstage.

The players looked at the game screen and their eyes lit up again.

What the hell...

Playing as a survivor and... a killer?

"Yes, Dead by Daylight is such a game."

"A game of killers and survivors."

"The lineups of the two sides are asymmetrical, one is strong and the other is weak. But no matter which side you play, players need to fight wits and courage, try to figure out the minds of opponents and teammates, and then use strategies to achieve their respective goals."

"And this is a 'survival horror escape game'!"

Wang Mang faced all the players head-on, smiled gently, and then said: "This is... an 'asymmetric competitive' game!"

As soon as he finished speaking.

On the big screen of the stage.

A wonderful clip of Dead by Daylight was immediately played...

On the survivors' side, when the powerful evil spirits approached, the increasingly loud heartbeats and the frantic drum beats when the evil spirits chased after them were like death warrants.

Facing the powerful killers who were pressing forward and following them like shadows, they were anxious, they screamed, they ran away...

On the other hand, the evil spirits were powerful, terrifying, and possessed unparalleled power. They were observing from the dark, chasing after the survivors, and they were laughing wildly...

Two camps.

Different goals.

Asymmetric confrontation.

Offstage.

Li Yu looked at the screen, at the brand new gameplay that he had never played before, or even seen before... His palms were sweating again, but this time, he was not nervous.

But because of excitement!

He opened his hands and wiped his palms with his trouser legs.

Then, as he was wiping, he suddenly thought of something, turned his head sharply, and looked behind him again like in the morning.

Wait.

Wait...

New trend...

Asymmetric confrontation...

WTF...

Linmu Studio has created a new game type! ! ?

"Thank you everyone."

On the stage.

Wang Mang began to bow to thank him and ended the explanation of the game.

At the same time, in the live broadcast room.

Real-time comments began to soar...

The players all reacted at this time.

But they didn't say much.

Because at this moment, there is only one word that can express their feelings at the moment, that is - "Fuck!?"
