Chapter 172 Chapter 172 "It's not about making games,...
"I'm not talking about making a game. I'm talking about our club's project," Wen Qian said enthusiastically. "We're going to make a game with an environmental theme. Everyone can participate."
The task prompts should include each member's preferences and specialties. Leaving aside the two of them, their own preferences have completely limited the scope of the work.
"Are you making an environmental protection game yourself?" Zhou Zhu asked in surprise. "Wen Qian, you can also program!"
"Won't."
He was so frank that Zhou Zhu was speechless for a moment.
"If you don't know how to program, what are you going to do? A skinned text dialogue game?" Lin Huai complained silently.
"Of course not," Wen Qian said confidently. "Don't worry about that. I have a solution."
Wen Qian's confidence made the two people who originally thought she was joking become half-believing and half-doubting.
Zhou Zhu hesitated and said, "But I have no experience at all. I don't even play games very often."
"It's okay, Xiaozhu, just take care of the copywriting." Wen Qian said casually, "I'm sure you can do this."
She casually pulled out a piece of paper and quickly wrote, "It doesn't have to be complicated. Keep it simple. The theme will be campus environmental protection, and the background of the game can just be the Holy Thorn. It'll be easier this way."
Wen Qian thought for a moment and added, "The gameplay is to clean up things that pollute the campus and pick up trash. We're familiar with this."
Lin Huai, who was about to speak, slowly closed his mouth. No matter how he played the game, he couldn't escape picking up trash.
When he saw Wen Qian casually mark the word "trash can" on the paper, his expression was indescribable.
Last school, I was really obsessed with trash cans.
Following the principle of simplicity and convenience, the game world background is based on the Holy Thorn, and the player's role in the game is a student who has just joined the Environmental Protection Society. The daily task is to clean up various polluted areas in the college and turn the college into a green campus.
"I'll take care of the quest line and the rest." Wen Qian shook his pen. "Xiao Zhu will be responsible for the copywriting and the NPC dialogues. As for Lin Huai, you—"
"I'll leave the art design to you!" she decided immediately.
"Wait, leave it to me." Lin Huai's forehead twitched in pain, "Are you sure you want to leave this to me?"
"Yeah, don't you know how to draw?" Wen Qian pointed at the little figures that Lin Huai had casually drawn on the paper. "And you really like drawing, so of course this task should be given to you!"
"But I haven't learned it systematically. It's just a hobby." Lin Huai said helplessly, "You can tell from my drawings that there are problems with the lines and the human body."
"What are you talking about? Have we ever learned it systematically?" Wen Qian smiled brightly.
Lin Huai: ...What a makeshift team.
"If you want to change one, that's fine." Wen Qian thought for a moment, "Xiao Zhu and I can give it a try too."
"Xiao Zhu, come here, draw one for me!"
"Me?" Zhou Zhu was stunned for a moment, looking at the white paper placed in front of him by Wen Qian, and hesitated for two seconds before putting pen to paper.
She was muttering while painting, and looking at the final product, Lin Huai suddenly fell silent.
"Xiaozhu, you draw very well!" Wen Qian said in surprise.
Lin Huai choked up: "What...what is this painting about?"
"Old Man Ding, don't you know?" Wen Qian picked up the paper and pondered the feasibility of setting the player's image as Old Man Ding. "You draw better than me!"
Lin Huai closed his eyes and said, "Forget it, let me do it."
Although he is not a good painter and is purely self-taught, but... at least he is better than Old Man Ding.
He slowly glanced at the people present, not daring to imagine what kind of shoddy game would be born here.
Wen Qian was very satisfied. She had originally gone there for the system task. Looking at the simple task line she designed, she nodded slowly.
Well, all members participated, and the games were closely related to each member’s hobbies and specialties. The games were themed on environmental protection, which was very consistent with the theme of the Environmental Protection Club.
The core gameplay of the game is picking up trash, which corresponds exactly to the Beggars' Sect. It is simply a perfect work!
As for what the final product will be like, that’s not important. After setting the goal, she will naturally find a way to solve the subsequent issues.
In the following days, Wen Qian basically stayed in the activity room except for completing daily tasks, which made it much easier to find her.
You no longer have to wander around the college, you can see Wen Qian just by coming to the activity room.
"So this is what you have been busy with recently?" Loren looked at the task chain and corresponding numerical progress projected on the screen, and looked sideways at Wen Qian.
"Yes." Wen Qian was sorting the photos in his hands with his head down. After classifying them one by one, he placed them next to Lin Huai.
"What are these?" Loren held up an overexposed photo of a building.
"Oh, these are the photos I took for Lin Huai's reference." Wen Qian said casually.
Loren and Lin Huai fell silent at the same time after seeing the photos. The first photo they picked up was overexposed, and the next one they picked up was completely dark. The few remaining photos that were relatively normal were full of noise.
Lin Huai couldn't imagine how high the ISO was raised when Wen Qian took these all-round ID photos of the trash can full of noise.
"Don't you really need my help?" Loren asked from the bottom of his heart.
"No need." Wen Qian shook her head. After all, it was a team mission, and she didn't dare let others interfere, for fear that when the system finally determined the mission results, it would reduce her reward.
She said indifferently, "Anyway, Lin Huai only needs to draw some simple drawings. The overall style should be Q-version, so it doesn't need to be too complicated."
When Lin Huai first asked Wen Qian what style he wanted, Wen Qian gave the answer without hesitation.
Simple, the simpler the better, quality is not important, what they want is efficiency!
Not only that, she also had the same requirements for the game's quest line, streamlining it again and again, so much so that after she came up with the final plan, Lin Huai couldn't help but speak after seeing the plan.
"Isn't this too easy?" He frowned as he looked at the brief quest line. "From entering the game to completing it, it won't take even half an hour, right?"
It looks like it could easily be refunded in two hours.
"That's exactly the effect we want." Wen Qian said briskly, "By the way, Lin Huai, go help proofread the content of the copy."
Lin Huai was silent for two seconds. He felt that their game-making process was very strange—for example, he hadn't seen a single line of code until now.
Is this really normal?
Zhou Zhu was looking down at Lin Huai's drawing, which was specially printed out by Wen Qian after Lin Huai finished drawing it on the digital screen.
Lin Huai didn't know why she had to print it out. It would obviously be easier to read it on the computer. Wen Qian just said that it would make it easier for her to make games.
What does printing it out have to do with making games? Lin Huai was confused.
Zhou Zhu nodded as he looked at them: "They all look good, but aren't they a little too dark?"
Lin Huai is used to using dark colors. Occasionally, he realizes something is wrong and wants to change it, but the resulting picture is not much better.
"It's okay, it's not important!" Wen Qian said casually. She looked at the [Garbage Sorting] skill displayed on the system panel with a look of regret.
It's a pity that they were not ready when the [Manufacturing] skill was randomly released the day before yesterday, otherwise they would have been able to synthesize it then.
Looking at the gray synthesis interface, Wen Qian counted the corresponding materials one by one. When she counted to the end, her expression paused.
Wait, how could I forget the background music!
The sound effects had been solved before, which was not difficult. Wen Qian adopted the simplest method, recording the real scene.
But she had forgotten the background music. Thinking of this, Wen Qian quickly stood up and walked quickly to a corner of the activity room.
Seeing Wen Qian's sudden action, Zhou Zhu looked at her unexpectedly: "What's wrong?"
"I forgot the background music." Wen Qian said. She raised her hand and grabbed the dust cloth covering the piano. When she was about to lift it up, her hand paused.
The dust cover didn't seem to be covered tightly, and the part in the corner was always exposed to the sun.
[The ghost is haunting the piano
Status: Extremely out of tune
Mini-game difficulty locked [Absolute Hell]
[Tip: Because the piano was exposed to sunlight for too long, it will take more than 20 days to soothe the piano.]
Wen Qian: ...
Twenty days? They've been busy with the game for so long, and the exchange meeting isn't long away. Another twenty days and the mission will fail.
Looking at the ominous special effects on the game interface, which were so dark that they turned purple and green, Wen Qian gritted his teeth and opened the mini-game.
Forget it, let's give it a try and just play it.
