Reboot the age of gaming

Chapter 254 The Prologue of the Game

What surprised Zhong Ming was that he was doing something that seemed meaningless and unreasonable on the surface, but he won the full support of many people.

Everyone in the studio is also good.

Lin Xiaoguang is also good.

Or those media reporters he found.

Everyone is doing their best to help him and contribute to this matter.

Of course, everyone in the studio may have to listen because Zhong Ming is the boss;
Lin Xiaoguang, perhaps to repay the favor of "Zodiac Guardian";

As for the media reporters, it may be because they have seen news hotspots.

But no matter what, they all stood up, which moved Zhong Ming.

It is precisely because of this that the game "The Devil in the World" must be done well. No matter how many sales it sells or how much attention it attracts, the quality of the game itself must be excellent!

……

On July 7st, the test of "The Devil in the World" was completed and the promotion began!
This time, Zhong Ming did not contact those distributors. On the one hand, it was because the cooperation between the two parties was not pleasant during the "Taiwu Painting Scroll"; It sells for 10 yuan, and it is not a type of game that pleases players, so it is likely that you will not make money. Even if you talk about it, these channel providers may not necessarily work hard to promote it.

That being the case, Zhong Ming stopped looking for these distributors at all, and promoted it by himself just like "Taiwu Painting Scroll"!

The "Taiwu Painting Scroll Logger" produced last time can be regarded as the prototype of the Shimmer game platform, and it can be used a little this time.

Before the release of "The Devil in the World", Zhong Ming also made the Shimmer game platform, and then put all the games developed by himself on it, including "Latent Red Road", "Working Dog Survival Manual", "Ink and Wash" Yunyan", "Taiwu Painted Scroll", and now there is "The Devil in the World".

Of course, there is also the most important "Guardian of the Zodiac", but this game is still exclusive to the MGC2 handheld, so it only reserves a section, and put some promotional pictures and promotional materials on it to fill the appearance.

Looking at it this way, there are already 6 games on this "twilight game platform", and the first few games are well-known, so they are decent.

On the Shimmer game platform, "The Devil is in the World" has left a lot of promotional materials and recommendation slots. After all, he is his own son, so the treatment can't be overstated.

And on Lin Xiaoguang's side, in the game store of the MGC2 handheld platform, he left a lot of recommended slots for "The Devil Is in the World"!
Of course, "Guardian of the Zodiac" is the main promotion. After all, this game is now the biggest card game on the MGC2 handheld, and sales are the income. It is impossible for Lin Xiaoguang to withdraw this.But other recommended positions that can be allocated are indeed allocated a lot for "The Devil Is in the World", which is very interesting.

On the other hand, Zhong Ming also privately sent the game "Devil in the World" to many anchors, asking them to help promote it.The popularity of "Taiwu Painted Scroll" has attracted many anchors, and now they are naturally very happy to try the new game of Shimmer Studios.

In this way, the first fire is considered to be established. As for whether it can be ignited, it all depends on the quality of the game itself and the response of the players.

……

On the low-light game platform and the game mall of the MGC2 handheld, many players talked about the new game when they saw it.

"Huh, shit, Shimmer Studios? "Guardian of the Zodiac" has just been released for a month, and the second game has come out? Isn't this efficiency too fast???"

"Is it only 10 yuan? That's too cheap."

"In the introduction, it says, 'Adapted from a real case', 'All proceeds from the game will be donated to orphanages, schools and educational institutions'?"

"...Then what kind of game is this? The developer didn't intend to make money?"

"I don't know, just play and see."

"There's a 'horror game' tag..."

"Fuck!"

The label of this horror game scares some people away, but also attracts a group of people.After all, there is no horror game on the MGC2 handheld platform, and Shimmer Studios has never produced a horror game. Such a label has made many horror game lovers interested in it.

However, they read the introduction and screenshots of the game several times, but they didn't see how scary it was?

Compared with many other horror games, the painting style is different!

Out of trust in Shimmer Studios, players still bought games and downloaded them one after another.

……

Tang Ying also bought the game immediately on the day it was released, and then started playing at 10 pm.

"It is said that it is the first horror game developed by Shimmer Studio... Viewers, please give me some courage, I hope this horror game will not be so scary..."

Tang Ying was in a ball of cowardice.

The bullet screens all said: "It's okay, you can play if you lie down, but don't scream suddenly, you are scarier than horror games!"

Entering the game, there is a black screen first, and then the logo of Shimmer Studios.

Immediately afterwards, a paragraph appeared on the black screen:

[Hell is empty, all devils are here (Hell is empty, all devils are here) - Shakespeare's "The Tempest"]

Then, the sound effects of the game came.

It was the sound of vehicles driving and heavy breathing.

The screen gradually lit up, and Tang Ying found that she was in the back seat of a commercial vehicle, in the middle of the three positions in the back seat, and could see the outside scene through the windshield just ahead.

A wild country.

At the end of the field of vision, you can vaguely see the edge of the city and see tall buildings, but judging from the distance, it is definitely not close.

Tang Ying found that there seemed to be some problems with the angle of view, which was lower than the normal angle of view.

At this point a simple prompt appears on the screen, use the right joystick or mouse to turn the camera.

The specific tips will be determined according to the equipment used by the player. Tang Ying played on the computer, but used an external handle.She turns the right stick and looks around.

Then she understood why the angle of view was lower than the normal angle of view, because she was a child.

Judging from the clothes, it should be a little boy. In terms of body shape, he is about fifteen or sixteen years old, not considered thin.

It is probably the beginning of summer in the game. The protagonist is wearing short sleeves. Judging from the muscles of his arms, this kid is not the scrawny type. He should have a lot of exercise.

On the left and right sides, there were two burly men, one on the left and the other on the right, with pale faces, and they were holding the boy's arms, making him unable to move.

The panting sound naturally came from the boy's mouth.

Tang Ying tried to move the left joystick, the boy struggled a bit, but then the burly man on the right slapped him directly: "Little brat, please don't move around!"

With a crisp sound of "pop", Tang Ying's entire lens was blown away, and a circle of blood red appeared on the edge of her field of vision, which startled her, and she dared not touch the left joystick again, so she could only turn the right joystick cautiously , observe the surrounding situation.

Soon, the flying car landed.

The car door opened, the big man on the left got out of the car, and pulled the boy out at once.

In the carriage, it is the No.1 perspective, but when getting off the car, it automatically switches to a third-person perspective, allowing Tang Ying to see the whole body of the little boy.

The clothes she wears are not very new, nor are they worn out, but they are definitely not expensive, which means that the economic conditions of the protagonist's family are average.He is not tall and looks thin and weak, but his physical fitness is actually good, as can be seen from the muscles on his shoulders and calves.

The boy was still struggling, but two big men quickly supported him from left to right, and dragged him into the gate in front of him.

There are a few large characters written on the door: Technical Defense College.

Along the way, Tang Ying could only turn the right joystick to observe the surrounding situation.

There was a group of indifferent adults at the door, who turned a blind eye to the boy being carried inside, and even two or three people were pointing and pointing at him with a smile.

On the playground in the distance, some people could be vaguely seen moving about. They were all wearing gray military uniforms from the time of crisis. The first impression made people think that this place was like some kind of military academy or training base.

Every time Tang Ying pushes the left joystick or presses any button, the boy screams and struggles violently, but two burly men directly lift him up and walk forward. This kind of struggle has no effect at all. , if he has struggled a certain number of times, the boy will still be beaten as before.

Soon, the boy was led into the main building in front of him by two burly men, and brought to the door of a reception room.

In the reception room, a middle-aged man with disheveled hair and a beard was talking with a man who looked like a doctor in a white coat.

The boy became anxious when he saw the middle-aged man, and shouted: "Dad, save me quickly! Save me quickly, they kidnapped me!"

Unexpectedly, the middle-aged man ignored his shout and continued talking with the white coat.

The white coat pushed up his glasses, and looked at the little boy who was brought outside the reception room with a smile, but in the eyes of the little boy, this smile was so terrifying.

The white coat turned to the middle-aged man and said: "Don't worry, we have many cases of cures for diseases like your child's. Let me assure you that the success rate of the transformation or treatment of this kind of child is conservative here." In other words, it is above 90%. Basically, after a course of treatment, it can be completely corrected."

The boy was still crying, and the middle-aged man couldn't help but look sideways, but then said to the white coat: "Then, Professor Yang, how long is a course of treatment?"

Professor Yang smiled and said: "This depends on the severity of the symptoms. Generally speaking, it takes 2 to 4 months. This needs further diagnosis and treatment to be sure. Why don't we conduct a simple test first, if your child is violent The tendency is serious, and it may take a little longer."

The middle-aged man nodded: "Okay, then I will leave it to Professor Yang."

Professor Yang stood up and said to the two burly men, "Inform the receptionist of group A to go to treatment room 13."

The boy was still yelling, "Dad, save me! Save me!"

But the middle-aged man sat on the chair with a livid face and said nothing.

Two burly men continued to carry the boy to the door of the so-called treatment room 13.

The three of them came up by the elevator, and the boy realized that no matter how much he cried here, his father on the first floor would not be able to hear him.

The furnishing of treatment room 13 is extremely simple. There is a hospital bed on the left hand side when entering the door. On the other side of the bedside, which is near the window, there is a chair. Behind the chair is a long table with drawers, nothing more.

The boy was carried to the hospital bed by two burly men. The boy wanted to struggle, but soon a large group of people poured in from outside the door. Roughly counting, there were about ten of them.

These people were all strong and strong. There were five or six people on the left and right sides of the hospital bed, and they held the boy together. Some pressed his arms and some pressed his legs. The boy couldn't move for a moment.

"What are you doing! I want to see my dad!"

"You are breaking the law! I want to find the Public Security Department!"

The boy was still yelling, but these people were expressionless and turned a deaf ear. They just pressed the boy hard on the hospital bed.

……

In front of the screen, Tang Ying was so frightened that she didn't dare to breathe, her mind was full of question marks.

What exactly is going on?

where is this?
What are these people doing? ? ?
It seems that these people should be the "group A reception" mentioned by Professor Yang before, but why did they put the little boy on the bed?
Moreover, why did no one stop this kind of thing?What is the little boy's father doing?
Obviously, everyone is now as confused and terrified as the little boy.

……

Professor Yang, who was wearing a white coat, walked in from the door with a smile on his face, and closed the door behind him.

The three big red characters "under treatment" on the door are quite dazzling.

Now it is a third-person perspective. After the boy is pressed on the hospital bed, the perspective becomes a top-down perspective, so Professor Yang's movements can be seen.

Professor Yang took out a square white instrument from the long table with drawers, inserted the plug into the socket in the corner next to it, then took out two needles from another iron box, and pierced the boy's two hands.

Then, Professor Yang connected several wires from the white instrument. There was a small metal clip on the top of each wire, and they were clipped one by one on the needles in the boy's hands. Four or five wires were clipped on each needle. little clip.

Then Professor Yang sat down on the chair, holding a white instrument in his hand, and asked in the boy's ear, "Do you know why you came here?"

The boy gritted his teeth and didn't say a word.

Professor Yang sighed softly, and then pressed a button on the white instrument.

"what!!!"

The boy struggled violently on the hospital bed, his arms began to twitch and tremble unceasingly, but several burly men next to him held him tightly.

……

Tang Ying subconsciously covered her mouth.

She was really scared!

After Professor Yang pressed the button, there was no exaggeration, and there was no current passing through the needle, as if nothing had happened, but the boy's reaction was as if he had suffered some kind of horrific torture. , that expression is worrying.

……

Professor Yang only pressed it once, and the boy gasped heavily, his arms still trembling.

Professor Yang asked again: "Do you know why you came here?"

The boy's eyes wandered, probably because of some associations.

Why can these people find their own position accurately?

Why is my father here, talking to this white coat?
"I... my dad sent me in?" the boy said in disbelief.

Professor Yang smiled: "Since you know it in your heart, why don't you tell the truth? Uncle Yang doesn't like children who lie. Remember, don't lie and answer Uncle Yang's questions honestly. I'll ask you again, then your dad Why did I send you in?"

This time it was no longer the boy himself who answered, the options appeared on the screen.

[I don't know, you let me ask him! 】

[Because I am disobedient. 】

[This is a misunderstanding! 】

【…】
