The screen in front of me went black, but the narrator was still reading the lines.
But Xia Xiao was no longer in the mood to pay attention to it. She stood there in a daze for a long time.
I suddenly made up my mind to go to the boss's office after get off work to check on him.
See if there is the so-called keyboard, the so-called secret passage.
"Oh, I'm really something. I'm actually obsessed with playing a game."
Suddenly, Xia Xiao reacted and shook his head, feeling both amused and helpless.
At this time, a new map appeared on the screen again, and Stanley escaped from here and gained freedom.
Then, the game restarted.
"Shouldn't it be over? Why is it restarting? Is there a glitch in the game?"
Xia Xiao was full of doubts, but the next moment, her eyes were inexplicably fixed on the game.
Is this really the ending?
Stanley is free, but am I free?
Xia Xiao suddenly realized that she had always been following the narrator's words, and Stanley's freedom was more like the narrator's arrangement.
An urge suddenly surged in her heart, she wanted to play it again!
"But if I play it again, I won't have enough time to write the article~"
At this point, she was no longer concerned about the quality of the game. The fact that she was able to play it a second time explained the reason.
"Forget it, let's just play it again. The purpose of playing games is to collect materials~"
After some self-persuasion, Xia Xiao started the game again.
It was still the familiar cutscene, and after entering the game, there was still the nagging of Bang Bang Jun.
After waiting for a while, Xia Xiao controlled Stanley and planned to go out to explore.
"Last time I listened to the narrator and chose the left side. What if I chose the right side?"
Xia Xiao was absentmindedly controlling the game character, thinking in his mind.
As a result, when he was about to go out, he accidentally clicked on the door and closed it accidentally.
The narrator suddenly jumped out.
"But Stanley can't bear the pressure."
"What if he had to choose? What if he messed up in his area of responsibility? He never~~~"
"All I have to do now is wait," Stanley thought to himself. "Nothing can hurt me, nothing can defeat me."
"Soon, this will be over. Someone will come to talk to him, someone will come to ask him to do something. That day is getting closer and closer. I can't wait to see it. It's coming..."
Then the screen went black and the game restarted.
"Damn! This is actually an ending. I just closed a door~~"
Xia Xiao felt helpless. She hadn't offended anyone.
However, although she was speechless, she had a different opinion about this game in her mind.
Although it was just a game, she could empathize with it.
She had a feeling that this game might not be that simple.
Well, of course, what she is considering now is whether she should do it again while she still has time?
University campus, men's dormitory.
Wang Chuan sat on the chair, clicking the mouse continuously.
He didn't know it, but The Stanley Parable had already developed its own charm.
A game editor got stuck in it.
At this time, he was concentrating on checking information, um, about games.
Because he had been focusing on the development of the game "Stanley's Parable", he now has time to pay attention to the situation of the world's gaming industry.
Since this world is technologically advanced, the game design concept is relatively primitive.
As a result, the development of games at home and abroad is not much different.
They all belong to the type where the hardware is highly developed but the software is extremely poor.
For example, in this world, holographic games have become relatively mature, but the gameplay is still the same as it was decades ago.
After checking the information for a while, Wang Chuan went to the classroom. He was about to graduate, and this was the last class meeting.
"Didn't you say that we were going to have a class meeting?"
After sitting down in his seat, Wang Chuan was a little speechless.
There was no teacher and the students were chatting in groups. He thought they would learn something useful.
Results
"Wang Chuan, didn't you say you were making games? Do you want to participate in the rookie competition?"
At this time, his deskmate came to him and asked curiously.
The rookie competition is specially prepared for students like them.
Students prepare games and compete based on data after going on stage.
After becoming a champion, you can still become an official game producer.
“No, I posted it directly on the official platform.”
Wang Chuan didn't care and continued speaking.
After hearing what Wang Chuan said, his deskmate was stunned for a moment.
After making a game, instead of participating in the low-difficulty rookie competition, you release it to the official platform?
This is the way to go to the market.
"Wang Chuan, are you kidding me?"
"If you publish your game on the platform, you won't be able to participate in the rookie competition."
"You have to think carefully. The market is not that simple. Let alone ranking first, even if there are only 10,000 payments, it will be difficult to break through."
Although the classmate was shocked, he couldn't help but try to persuade her.
Because it is really difficult to become a formal game producer by taking the marketing route.
They have no more than ten schools in total.
"Don't worry, I have confidence in myself."
Wang Chuan felt warm in his heart at his deskmate's words. At this time, only friends can patiently advise you.
However, he is indeed full of confidence in "The Stanley Parable".
Because when he chose the game, he deliberately avoided gameplay innovation.
Instead, he chose to focus on the plot.
After all, if the players in this world are not used to or don’t like the gameplay, wouldn’t that be terrible?
But the plot is different. A good story will never go out of style no matter when.
This is also the reason why he chose "The Stanley Parable".
The gameplay is simple and universal, but it is mixed with META elements, which, combined with the appropriate plot, gives people a shocking experience.
After he finished speaking, Wang Chuan said goodbye to his deskmate and planned to go out for a walk.
After all, the class was too noisy and there was nothing to gain.
“Ding ding ding.”
At this time, Wang Chuan's cell phone rang. He took a look at the caller ID and saw that it was an unfamiliar number.
"Hello, is this Mr. Wang Chuan, the creator of The Stanley Parable?"
After the call was connected, a sweet female voice came from the other end.
"Yes, I'm Wang Chuan. What can I do for you?"
"Oh, that's right. We're in the new game world. I'm the game editor: Xia Xiao."
The other party's voice was very excited and he directly stated his purpose.
"We'd like to interview you about the game The Stanley Parable. Is that possible?"
"Oh, by the way, if you agree, we can return your advance payment."
On the other end of the phone, Xia Xiao was a little nervous, not knowing whether he would agree.
