10 July, Saturday.
After the update, the sales volume of Ghost Fear continued to increase even though it wasn't too crazy, but the game still helped Maxim to brush off a lot of emotional value.
Initially, the game's routines, ghost action patterns, and stimulated reactions were almost completely understood by the player, but this time the update almost knocked down the game and reworked it.
Players were unfamiliar with the new map, after the adjustment of the old map, it was difficult for players to follow the ghost of the King.
In the past, when players controlled a character to run, even if it was running in a straight line, many ghosts were unable to catch up.
However, after the update, when ghosts were hunting, their movement speed increased significantly.
Many unreacted players were suddenly let out by the sinister ghost face, issuing waves of shouts.
The player's most frightening thing was that after the ghost AI was upgraded, it no longer moved in a straight line.
Before starting the hunt, ghosts will try to scare the player, such as sticking to the player and disappearing, lying on the player's back, etc.
And after starting the hunt, if the ghost is unable to chase a particular player, it will make decisive decisions, move the target, and rush to a closer player.
The expert difficulty and difficulty of Purgatory made players realize what it means to be a ghost.
There is no safe time for the first three minutes.
If the player is unlucky and encounters a neurotic demon, he may be hunted as soon as he enters the haunted house.
In Purgatory difficulty, except for debuffs such as rapid SAN value drop and increased speed of ghost movement.
In the three large-scale maps of Abandoned Soul Hospitals, the Anatomy School After the Fire, and the Underground Death Penalty Prison, six to five ghosts might appear.
It can be said that this wave of renewal has frightened many players who feel good about themselves to the point of getting out of their bodies.
Therefore, in the comments area of the Ghost Fear sales page, players once again gave high marks to the game while greeting Maxim.
Seeing the player burning with anger in the comment column, Maxim smiled and sipped instant coffee.
It's all the player's love for her, and also the cute chives that provide emotional value.
How could Maxim be willing to fight them??
However, it is not suitable to always let players vent in the comment area, as it will give the illusion to people that players of steampunk gaming platforms are very hostile.
Punk asked politely if he wanted to delete some of the comments.
Removing comments can further stimulate the players, expected to only make the players scold harder.
Therefore, why didn't he provide a place for players to vent alone?
So Maxim registered the King Eye blog and with the help of Punk, the account quickly completed official certification.
[Hello everyone, I'm game designer Ghost Fear, King Maxim. Thank you for your support and love for this game. I will continue to strive to create more games that can warm the hearts of players] (Funny.Jpg)]
Since a cute magical expression has yet to appear on the blue star, this JPG is still drawn by Max himself.
45 Art points, it is not difficult to draw comics.
Later, Maxim posted a message in the comment area of the Ghost Fear sales page and posted a link to the King Eye blog.
the message was not only directly placed on top of the platform, but it also had a special effect of golden light, which was hard to ignore.
"See what I found? Fucking thieves open a blog for players!"
"thief! If you have a conscience, give me money and pay for my wet pants!"
"Isn't his surname King? Why is he called a thief?"
"What's wrong with calling him a thief? I think it's true!"
"The game that warms the hearts of the players? Fucking you! Here we talk well!"
"Surge! I will slash you with my 40-meter long sword!"
"V big hanging! Can the official certification be fake?"
"Don't stop me, I can only beat up this fucking Thief today."
"Why do I feel that this JPG of Thief bastard is a bit cheap and a little mocking?"
"Really, after looking at it for a long time, it turned out to be a little excessive."
"Funny, but in the next second, it was my avatar!"
Initially only ordinary players are forced to come to Maxim's blog to vent, then more streamers and UP masters who hear the news also join the ranks of cursing Maxim.
"thief! I'll kill you soon today!" It's Meimei. After the game was updated, he once again realized what fear was.
"Fucking thief! Pay my pants!" This is another anchor that is frightened and crying.
“Theft! Stay with me and you'll know what a deadly attack is!” These are news anchors who have come to gain popularity.
In just half an hour, King Eye Maxim was like poking a beehive, every time he refreshed, there would be tens or even hundreds more comments.
And the number of its fans has soared from just Punk and the steampunk gaming platform to 100,000 and the number is still growing.
The topic of #The thief paid for my pants# has been taken to 20th place in a hot search by the players.
Suddenly there were more people passing by to have fun.
In addition to bringing a number of new fans to the King Eye Maxim Blog, Ghost Fear sales are also starting to increase.
People were all curious to see everyone saying that they were afraid to pee in the pants with Ghost Fear, they wanted to see what this game was like.
soon after playing it, another group of players came to curse Maxim .
It is unfortunate that the vent of the player on the blog can not help Max get emotional points, otherwise he will not mind interacting with most players.
After shutting down King Eye's blog, Maxim leaned back in the gaming chair and wondered which game to play next?
After the baptism of Ghost Fear the player threshold for horror games definitely increased.
Shouldn't have happened, Meimei yelled and donated a thousand emotional points and by the way, good things happened to help him unlock achievements.
So the next game, Maxim first ruled out horror games.
"Next, we have to treat most players well, relaxed and relaxed, how shallow and deeper, so as to make players want to die and can not stop ..."
"So what game is better to develop? Ranch Story's? Stardew Valley's? Or Plants vs Zombies?"
As Maxim thought about it, he reached out and took out a cup of coffee, intending to drink another mouthful of instant coffee to quench his thirst.
And as he held onto his cup, the name of a game suddenly appeared in his mind - Cup Head, Cuphead!
Inspired by cartoons from the 1930s, the game's graphics and sound effects sought to reproduce the technology of the time, such as traditional celluloid hand-painted animation, watercolor backgrounds, watercolor, and acoustic jazz recordings.
As the best independent game in TGA 2017, Cuphead is undoubtedly a success and players have a high rating of this game.
His 45-point art is just right for this game.
As for jazz acoustics, just take it.
This way, even though he only had 30 points of musical ability, that was enough.
At the same time, he also wanted to test how much emotional value these types of games could provide him.
Are the seven emotions of joy, anger, sadness, longing, sadness, fear, and surprise provided by the system equal to the number of emotional points earned?
There is still a difference, but it can be ignored.
In other words, certain emotions give a lot and certain emotions give very little.
