Game Development: I Built a Game Empire

If we talk about this promotional CG video.

The first half just shows the plot background of a game.

Let the players understand that the protagonist is this person named ALEX.

His purpose is to find the person behind the scenes and then make the other party pay the price.

The second half of the content completely demonstrates the gameplay of this game.

There is also the world background of the entire game.

A city shrouded in darkness.

All transportation hubs have been blocked.

A group of soldiers are conducting searches and inspections in the streets and alleys

‘Help! Help! '

At this time, in the dark alley, there was a woman's voice calling for help.

Behind her were many zombie-like mutants.

The whole body is gray and white, and the clothes are ragged, but it is different from the ordinary slow-moving zombies.

The speed and power of these mutants are much stronger.

‘Fire! '

The accompanying soldiers immediately began to be on guard.

Under the command of the commander, the soldiers poured out a storm of bullets at the oncoming zombies.

Although these zombies did not look ordinary, they were quickly wiped out under the suppression of powerful modern firepower.

‘Sir, she's infected. '

At this time, a soldier next to him took the woman who asked for help before and came to the commander to report the situation.

Without too many words, he raised the gun in his hand

‘boom! '

Amid the horrified expression on the other side's face, bullets were fired from the gun's muzzle.

Then the woman fell into a pool of blood.

But at this moment, an additional person suddenly appeared in the lens.

Black jacket with hood.

Previous ALEX!

"alert!"

Looking at the sudden appearance of ALEX, the surrounding soldiers showed horrified expressions. The surrounding soldiers raised their guns and fired at ALEX.

But the next moment, dark red smoke bloomed from ALEX.

Then his His hands turned into sharp claws that shone with cold light.

Like ghosts, they passed through the hail of bullets and tore the soldier who fired into pieces.

At this time, a soldier in the distance shouldered a rocket launcher and fired a rocket shell at ALEX..

But in the face of the rocket shells coming, ALEX just raised his right hand slightly.

The right hand that was originally in the form of a claw instantly turned into a huge broad blade, easily blocking the rocket shells.

Then it exploded. In the smoke, ALEX cut the opponent in half through the smoke.

But at this moment, another rocket hit ALEX.

A huge explosion buried it in the ruins.

At this time, the soldier who fired the shell , suddenly found that there seemed to be a surviving companion in the ruins nearby.

He rushed over and pulled him out of the ruins.

‘Where is sir?’

‘He's in Times Square, I'm calling for reinforcements……’

The words were only half spoken, and the sharp claws had already penetrated his body.

‘no need. '

With emotionless words, the dead soldier was thrown aside.

The dark red substance on his body turned into smoke, and the soldier transformed into ALEX.

With his head lowered and the hood covering his face, ALEX put his hands in his trouser pockets and slowly left towards the distance.

What follows is a series of quick cuts.

The shots are of countless huge monsters in the city.

As well as civilians fleeing in all directions, and heavily armed soldiers.

His hands turned into steel claws and sharp blades, and the zombie-like monster was easily killed by ALEX.

But at this moment, huge monsters and troops suddenly aimed their firepower at ALEX who appeared on the scene.

Rocket launchers and tanks fired at ALEX, and monsters like tentacle monsters suddenly emerged from the ground and attacked ALEX.

Surrounding everything around him, ALEX jumped up to the top of a building.

Then he hugged his arms with both hands and squatted down.

Countless needle-like tentacles shot out from his body.

Everything in sight was destroyed by ALEX.

Standing on top of a tall building, looking at the ruins below.

AELX slowly opened his hands and looked straight in front of the screen.

Just like looking at the player watching the video.

At the same time, background narration sounds

‘Welcome to the... top of the food chain! '

Then the video stops abruptly and plunges into darkness.

A promotional video for the entire game would be over here.

Basically, the tone of the game is actually enough shown in this video.

Including a plot of the game and a corresponding gameplay.

There's a parkour-style gameplay at the beginning, and ALEX's various abilities follow up.

A finishing move that turns his hands into sharp claws, broad blades, and thousands of tentacles.

At the same time, it can also absorb others and become others, thereby performing a deception.

It can be said that in this promotional video, a general selling point of the game has been shown to the players.

Of course, Chen Xu also added some other elements in the promotional video.

For example 'Welcome to the top of the food chain'.

This line actually did not appear in one generation.

But it appeared in the previous two generations.

If we have to say that among the second generation, there is something that is a classic and memorable.

That’s almost all ALEX’s line.

Because this line is quite classic, Chen Xu also included it in the game's trailer.

As a promotion to players, it is also a pun after all.

This CG promotional video about"Prototype".

Similarly, among the player community, one stone stirred up a thousand waves.

It quickly triggered a discussion and heated debate among the player community.

At the same time, it also ignited players' expectations for this game.

Because judging from the promotional video revealed by Chen Xu.

This game doesn't seem to be what most players imagined at first.

This game looks like a lot of fun, it should be a blast!
