Have you cleared the level again? !

Chapter 6 beta version released

Fang Qi observed his hands. The palm prints on his palms and the hairs on the back of his hands were clearly visible. He clapped his hands gently. The touch was extremely real, but the pain sensation was turned off by default.

Following the operating instructions, Fang Zhe swiped his finger downwards, and the menu bar suddenly appeared in front of him.

The equipment manufacturer has currently only installed the test program of "Tricky Neighbors". Click on the program to enter, and the surrounding nihilistic scene changes immediately. Fang Qi appears in a room, and through the window he can see his neighbor's single-family cabin and yard.

Fang Qi did not choose a realistic style, but adopted a two-dimensional art style. Although it is in a virtual space, "Tricky Neighbors" will not be limited to the No. 1 perspective. Players can still play in the first and third perspectives. Make free switching.

Select to start the game, the game generates Fang Qi's Two-dimensional image, and then enters CG animation, a real 9D movie experience.

"You disturbed me by playing an instrument. What, you can't do it during the day. You have no talent and your playing is really ugly!"

"What you wear is so ugly, it hurts my eyes. Fashion? Trendy? You young people will do this to no avail!"

"Don't get cats, they're annoying, get dogs, I love dogs!"

"Your wifi signal covers my house. I can't bear double the radiation. What, mine also covers your house? You are relatively young!"

In the CG animation, the fussy and double-standard neighbor Lao Wang makes even the designer Fang Qi's blood pressure rise.

The first level is very important as a novice tutorial level. A novice tutorial that is too vague or too complex will dissuade players.

After entering the game, Fang Qi followed the guide to the attic. There was a telescope by the window. He could use the telescope to observe the living patterns of his neighbors.

Turn on the telescope and the game enters observation mode. When Lao Wang wakes up in the morning, he will first go to the bathroom to wash up, then go to the kitchen to have breakfast, then go to the yard to water the flowers after dinner, and then return to the living room to watch the news.

The teaching process is not long. Lao Wang will only perform these four stages of activities. During the process of observing through the telescope, he also received tips on available props, such as soap, watering cans, trash cans, etc.

"The novice guide is quite concise and clear." Fang Qi felt quite satisfied with this part.

Based on the observed information, Fang Qi exited the telescope, went downstairs and left home. The moment he walked out of the door, the game entered the trick mode and it was early morning.

Fang Qi did not dare to neglect, so he rushed to the next door in a hurry, slipped into the room through the window that Lao Wang forgot to close on the first floor, took mustard from the refrigerator, replaced Lao Wang's toothpaste, and then placed the soap at the door of the bathroom. .

At this time, Lao Wang had already woken up. Fang Jie stayed away from the bathroom and went to the living room to switch the TV's default news channel to a ghost program. At this time, there was a muffled sound from upstairs. It must be that Lao Wang stepped on the soap and fell to the ground.

In Fang Qi's sight, there were points jumping in the upper right corner, and a new reminder appeared: Tricks may change Lao Wang's behavior, and consecutive tricks can gain points bonuses.

Fang Qi deliberately abandoned the kitchen area so that Lao Wang could still have a smooth bite of breakfast after enduring the ravages of mustard toothpaste. This also resulted in his clearance settlement being only over 1000 points, and he only received a 1-star clearance evaluation.

After passing the level, the system automatically saves the video, allowing you to completely replay the entire process and witness every tragic moment of Lao Wang.

Starting from the second level, the prop prompts will disappear. The game has a high degree of freedom. Almost all items in the scene can be used. Different usage methods will produce different effects. After a simple experience, Fang Qi found that it was in line with expectations and quit. game.

In the company, other people could observe Fang Qi's game process through an external screen. Seeing that he quit the game before finishing the second level, Zhao Yechao quickly asked: "Is there something wrong?"

Fang Qi took off the device on his head and said, "No problem." "Then why didn't you continue playing?" planner Xiao Chen asked hurriedly.

Fang Qi looked up and saw that everyone was a little uneasy, and suddenly said: "Don't worry, the game experience is good. I didn't continue playing because the test content has been completed. I quit and communicate with you. Do you find it interesting to observe the game process through an external screen? ?”

Wenwen said: "It's very interesting. This two-dimensional style can exaggerate the effect of pranks and make it more interesting. If it is a realistic style, some people may be uncomfortable with part of the prank content."

Xiao Chen continued: "It doesn't take a long time to complete a level. If you don't pursue the highest bonus points, it's not too brain-consuming. I think it is in line with the positioning of casual games."

After listening to everyone's opinions, Fang Qi made a final decision: "Then based on the three levels of the test version, we will extend it to 25 levels, using all the inspiration we have brainstormed before, and the difficulty will increase but not too much."

Xiao Chen thought for a while: "Is 25 too few?"

Fang Qi said: "It's quite a lot. This work is mainly used to test the game market. Too much investment will affect subsequent plans. If the response is good, it will not be too late to launch new scenes."

After he said this, others naturally no longer had any objections and began to speed up the production progress.

Although Jiang Qiuxu did not participate in the specific development work in order to have a complete game experience and avoid being spoiled in advance, she was concerned about the general direction, and she was fully aware of the production progress and capital flow.

For example, she had to take a test today. She knew about it early in the morning and came over at noon to ask, "What's the test result?"

Fang Qi said: "I think it's pretty good. The official version will be ready in about half a month. Have you hired anyone for promotion and operation?"

"Of course we've been recruited, there's still half a month left." Jiang Qiuxu felt a little impatient to wait.

At this time, Fang Qi saw an aircraft passing by outside the window and stopping above the office building next door.

The aircraft transported several large characters, and construction workers were already waiting there. They would wait for the aircraft to arrive at the designated location and start the installation after calibration.

After the combination of several large characters, it became "Tianmaxingkong", and the virtual projection screen under the signboard showed the words "Tianmaxingkong Game Studio".

"The opposite side seems to be higher than ours." Fang Qi looked up at the sign opposite, and then turned to Jiang Qiuxu.

He knew it was intentional as soon as he heard it. Jiang Qiuxu hummed: "What's the use of hanging the sign high?"

"Then what's useful?" Fang Qi asked.

Jiang Qiuxu stared at him: "If the sales volume is higher than ours, I will kick you and poach the opposite director."

"Oh, you said that, I'm so stressed." After saying this, Fang Qi looked very relaxed, looked at the time, and was about to go downstairs, "Have you eaten for lunch? Let's go together?"

"Yes." Jiang Qiuxu did not refuse.

The company doesn't have a cafeteria yet, but fortunately there is no shortage of places to eat nearby. There are many game companies. One company moved next door, and there was no chance of contact. Who knew that they would meet during lunch.
