Almighty Video Game Designer

Many players laughed out loud as they watched the trailer.

"Hahahaha, what the hell is this new game's promotional video!"

"Salent, are you happy with this?"

"How is this being cheeky? This is tens of thousands of times!"

"I've never seen such a crazy designer before. He's so crazy that he's even trying to ride on his own popularity. He's so shameless!"

"What kind of game titles are these? PlayerUnknown's Battleground 2? Jailbreak? Mysterious seas 2? Top quality truck? Tyrannical? Virtual life? Serente is really a genius at coming up with names, Thunderbolt entertainment has picked up a treasure!"

"Hahahaha, I really want to play all these games!"

"A game that's been in development for less than a month, and the promo looks like a triple-A game that's been in development for two years. Only Chen Mo would play like this, anyone else would probably be flamed if they released this promo."

"Now I know why the game is developing so quickly. The art materials are all ready-made here. We can just steal the materials for 'mysterious seas'!"

"Woah, serente, where is your conscience? Why am I so pessimistic about the future of this game? Don't try to fool us!"

Many of the players expressed that they did not believe in salent!

There was no one else in the world who could come up with so many names for a game.

However, from the looks of this promotional video, it should be a Prison Break, car racing, robbery, gun battle, and casual game ... In one ... What the hell is this?

However, Chen Mo's Weibo did briefly introduce the special features of the game called escape.

"This is a co-starred interactive game that is tailor-made for the Switch and mainly focuses on the story. The design, experience, and gameplay are specially designed for two-person mode, regardless of whether it is online or local. You must play the game with another player. "

"As a two-person game, there's no need for both of you to buy the game to play escape. As long as one player buys it, he can invite his partner to play it for free. It's completely real, literally 'free'.

"The Switch version is priced at 150 yuan, the VR gaming pod version is priced at 450 Yuan, and both ends are interchangeable. (VR can invite the Switch, but the Switch can not invite VR, unless VR players have also bought the game because of the different pricing.) However, in terms of visual presentation, the Switch version and the VR version will be different. You can consider choosing a platform that you prefer to experience it on. "

Many players read the game introduction on Weibo and focused their attention on the two-person game.

"A two-person game? It can only be played by two? Must?"

"Two people only need to spend one portion of money? Only 75 per person? It's so cheap! Salent is losing money every day!"

"This ... Why is the VR version so cheap? Only 450?"

The players 'first reaction was, a two-person game? Something like super Mali?

However, super Mali had one person controlling Mario and one person controlling the hat. This game obviously wanted to control two people!

His second reaction was, why was the VR version so cheap?

Based on normal pricing, Switch and PC games were similar. VR games were usually priced eight to ten times that of PC games. That meant that if the Switch was priced at 150, the VR version would be priced at around 1500.

The VR version of escape was only 450 Yuan, which was already much lower than the market price.

Of course, there was a reason for Chen Mo's pricing strategy.

In terms of cost, escape reused many art resources from mysterious seas and the Resource Library, so the development cost was not high.

Of course, the cost was only one aspect. More importantly, as a two player game, Chen Mo had to reduce the cost of connecting the players. If the Switch and VR gaming pod couldn't be connected, it would be very awkward for players who used the pod and their friends used the Switch.

Of course, there were loopholes in this setting, and players could take advantage of them. If buying the Switch version could invite friends from the VR version, who would buy the VR version? The price of 450 Yuan was practically non-existent. Therefore, there was a slight restriction on the regulations. Switch players could not invite VR pod players who had not bought the game, and other invitations were not restricted.

After all, as a company that was seriously responsible for design, loopholes in top-up were absolutely not allowed.

The players didn't have to think too much about it, as it was already quite cheap. Whether it was 140 or 450, the price was usually divided by two, and this was something that only happened with Chen Mo.

Many players expressed that it sounded interesting and they would definitely buy it!

Especially the players who liked the two-player mode of super Mali Odyssey, they were looking forward to escape even more.

The players immediately set off a vigorous "pairing" campaign. The players actively promoted each other and looked for their own partners. They could be a couple, they could be good friends, they could be colleagues, classmates, or even friends they met online ...

At the very least, he could post on the forum and find a playmate. Rich people who had money but no friends could buy a game and go online to find a girl who was unwilling to spend money or a good friend to play with. Maybe they could make more friends, which was also a happy thing.

As for his real-life friends, they were even easier to deal with. They could just find a place and take out a Switch, and the two of them could play together.

What many people didn't expect was that such a game that seemed to have very harsh conditions would instead encourage the players to "find a gay friend." Many people realized that they didn't seem to be as lonely as they had imagined!

Some live streamers and video uploaders took this opportunity to form strong alliances, which made the fans look forward to it.

It had to be said that with the two-player mode of super Mali as the foreshadowing, many players were surprised and amazed by this form of game.

This was a so-called "two-person game" that could be played on the same screen offline. How was this game played?

……

The players were still confused about whether they should buy the Switch or the VR version, so the details page of the game briefly introduced the differences between the two versions and the different operating modes.

In the Switch version, when the player used the complete Switch, the controls would be exactly the same as Chen Mo's previous life's escape. The screen would also be split like the original.

If two players held the Switch handle separately, some adjustments would be made to the details of the buttons, just like how the single-player mode of super Mali Odyssey was changed to two-player mode. For example, if a player pushed the joystick normally to control the character's movement, pressing the [Y] key and pushing the joystick would move the camera. This way, the function that could be completed by the original two joysticks would be combined with one joystick.

Of course, holding the Switch handle separately may cause inconvenience to the players when driving and shooting. Therefore, in this mode, the game's shooting assistance and driving correction functions would be automatically adjusted to reduce the difficulty of the game and allow players to get a smoother game experience.
