Otherworldly Architect

The poem "Xia Ke Xing" can be described as a masterpiece handed down through the ages.

It vividly describes a swordsman's attire, martial arts, character and actions, showing the chic, indifferent and able to save the world and the people's chivalrous spirit, which makes people yearn for and admire involuntarily.

Coupled with the ink-wash style rendering and the accompaniment of the ancient bamboo flute, it also brings people top-notch enjoyment in terms of vision and hearing.

Such a simple and profound style makes the star people want to watch it.

This promotional video may be the most popular promotional video ever received by Blue Star.

On the day of the release, not only the official website was full of traffic, but also the corresponding enthusiasm appeared on major websites immediately.

On the list of the day on the video website, almost all "White Horse" with a film length of only 5 minutes declared the top spot.

On personal media, it's not just players who can't help but speak up, there are even many people who don't play games-they don't even know that this is a promotional video for "Xia Ke Xing", and they are simply moved by the work itself.

[I got goosebumps from watching it, the brainwashing cycle can't stop at all! 】

【It's so beautiful, tears came down inexplicably during the climax. It's the first time I know that beauty can really make people cry. 】

[It feels like the sky is flying...]

[Advertise with your heart, use your feet... Bah!The game is also made with heart!Just watching this "White Horse" makes me a die-hard fan of "Xia Ke Xing Xing"! 】

[The phrase "Kill a person in ten steps, never stay a thousand miles away" is so expressive, I declare it to be the most beautiful line in the universe! 】

[Kneel down with a plop, this promotional video is simply a work of art, a treasure! ! 】

[What kind of gods are Blue Stars? Directly making movies is probably the best in the world.]

In fact, everyone in Bluestar Studios also agreed that the promotional film "White Horse" should be their pinnacle work.

Art creation is a matter of inspiration and passion.

And all of them, when interpreting the ancient poem "Xia Ke Xing", seemed to be enlightened, and they were overwhelmed by the pure and vast artistic beauty.

Only when creative inspiration and creative passion explode at the same time can they each do the most perfect work and finally complete this work of art.

Even the person responsible for the soundtrack posted a blog post two days later:

[This song is not written by me, I feel that it exists there, and it is born to belong to this ancient poem.I just got a little flash of light suddenly in the dark and reproduced it in the world. 】

Of course, it’s not just about making promotional videos.

To make a game as big as "Xia Ke Xing", and the local customs and customs in it must be all available, close to the corresponding era of Blue Star civilization... the main creators must understand it.

At least one must be able to understand the "spirit of chivalry".

For this purpose, the entire team has actually conducted closer exchanges and cooperation with the Blue Star Research Institute.

Especially the planners in charge of copywriting and scripts, most of them have even started the "Life Habits of Blue Star".

In the Blue Star Building, many people have entered and exited in ancient costumes in recent days, while others have become accustomed to it.

The so-called "ancient costume" is also a pattern from the Blue Star Research Institute. After cooperation and negotiation with clothing manufacturers, a set of daily clothing that is more suitable for star people has been made.

In the earliest days, everyone was very curious about it, just like the attitude towards meditation, meals and tea.

But later, everyone gradually got used to it.

Among them was a plot planner who couldn't extricate himself after going deep into the Blue Star civilization.

Not only did he fall in love with drinking tea fanatically, he began to study the "Tea Classic", and for this reason he began to stay up late to study the ancient characters of Blue Star...

And I am a little obsessed with reading the history books of the Blue Star civilization, and I even want to roll up my sleeves to participate in archaeology in person!

Fortunately, "Xia Ke Xing" is now in a critical development period, and his crazy idea has not been implemented-Blue Star is not a safe place to go now.

As a result, there was a wave of learning Blue Star's ancient characters in the office.

There are many talents in Blue Star Studio, and everyone is very smart and interesting.

And smart people always play smart games.

For example, this month, they have started a competition who can learn "Chinese characters" faster!

This is Schrödinger's first coquettish idea. As a programmer, he is very confident in his skills and efficiency in learning "language".

Facts have proved that his IQ is indeed quite high, and he has learned more than 800 Chinese characters in just one month!

Well, it is currently recognized as the number one in Blue Star Studio.

——Of course, this does not include expressly stating that he did not participate in this "competition".

The second highest ranking is naturally the plot planner, he has boundless enthusiasm now.

I don't know if programmers really have an advantage in this area. The third place is the back-end program tycoon Horace... He is not obsessed with learning Chinese characters, but took the lead in handling everyday language.

He is now able to communicate to a certain extent with several doctors from the Blue Star Research Institute!

like this--

Hollus: "Good morning. How are you?"

Doctor: "Good morning. Hi, thank you, how about you?"

Hollus: "Me too!"

Every time they heard that they were able to communicate like this, the others all showed expressions of "awesome" and "big boss", thinking that Horace is really awesome.

At this time, the statement: "..."

He really had a hard time holding back the laughter.

Recently, it was stated that the second phase of development of "Xia Ke Xing" was handed over to the main creative team.

And he himself looked around at what he had gained in the past two months.

Well, in his notebook, there are now more than ten game play ideas and more than 20 theme ideas...

Those who know will know that this is a spaceship crash, and those who don't know think he is out to gather folk songs! !

"Lost" can achieve such a big gain in two months. If other designers in the industry know about it, they may be so envious that they want to get lost.

Mingyan even realized that one of the ideas has become an actual game.

He named it "Wormhole Wave", not only to explain the background of the entire game, but also to commemorate his two-month lost career.

The content of this game is very small, there is not much art material, it looks like a spaceship model flying around outside many automatically generated galaxy models.

There are almost no pictures in the game process, and they are all presented in text form.

After all, Mingyan is not omnipotent. As early as in the production process of "Minecraft", the art resources part was his weak link.

This is also Mingyan's first roguelike-RPG game. Of course, there was no such game as "rogue" in the interstellar era, so it should probably be called a "randomly generated RPG".

The so-called roguelike generally has important characteristics such as random generation and irreversibility.

Mingyan's new work "Wormhole Wave" is like this.

The spaceship controlled by the player needs to sail between galaxies, replenish resources and repair the hull at any time. Once the durability of the hull reaches 0, the game will end immediately, and the save file will be lost, so you can only start over.

This is a game of no return!

Every galaxy and every planet encountered by the spacecraft is randomly generated by the system, with random resources and landforms, and even a unique ecological environment.

As a result, it brings ever-changing random events and game experience.

The essence of this type of game lies in the forever unknown next second.

It's like smoking candy from a box, never knowing what flavor will come next.

Maybe on the next planet, there will be resources that are hard to find, and they will suddenly survive from desperation, or simply become rich and powerful;

Maybe the next planet is barren and barren, and your journey is destined to stop here.

Ecstasy and dismay are part of the gaming experience.

This small game has a total size of 300G, and it is stated that it is directly uploaded to the network disk, and the latest blog is released.

[Tiny work: I made a small game by myself to commemorate the running career of the past two months, and also to let everyone experience the feeling of desperately traveling between galaxies. (Attachment: Network disk link) (Picture: Simple poster of "Wormhole Wave")]

Just like "The Story of Hachiko" at that time, everyone who saw it could download it for free.

As soon as the game was released, the focus of what players saw was completely skewed.

【Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha this poster was definitely made by Master Ming himself! !Look at this color scheme, look at this font!Isn’t this the early style of my world?]

[Bored on the spaceship, just made a new game?Can I be a knight-errant by the way]

[The new promotional video is really awesome, sir, I beg you to make [-] more promotional videos for the Knights... Of course the game itself will also be released!Get out now!It's best to have it on sale early tomorrow morning! 】

[Master Ming, I am convinced.When I saw Pitou, I made a story of Hachiko, and when I saw Blue Star, I made a story about Blue Star Doomsday. Now that it has developed to the point where it can be used as a game after the spaceship crash...]

Mingyan deftly ignored all reminders, and replied to one of the comments by the way.

[Toffee is so sweet: How about the plot of the new game?The last time Master Ming released a free game was "The Story of Hachiko". I cried for a long time... I was a little scared. 】

[Tiny work: Don't worry, there is no main storyline, the new game is very healing:)]

【Toffee is so sweet: ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!I was answered by the leader! ! !Gaahahahahah!Hi, Master!I'm off to play a new game, love you!Comparing!Love Blue Star three thousand times! 】

Mingyan touched his chin.

Well, this little fan is very sweet.

When playing "Wormhole Fluctuation", if you encounter three gaseous barren planets in a row and then die from lack of oxygen and become a mummy in the universe...would you cry?

The author has something to say:

The prototype "FsterThanLight", a very old roguelike game.
