Top game producer

The next morning!

Lin Fan finished washing up, ate breakfast, and returned to his computer, finding that "To the Moon" had just been released.

The original price was 36, but there was a new release discount, making it only 18 yuan. Buy!

Entering the game, the Dragon Abyss logo flashed by.

As the soft melody of the piano began, the camera moved down from a pitch-black screen. Sparse stars, a few dark clouds, and a bright moon hung in the night sky, emitting a faint moonlight. The sea appeared deep blue in the night, and against the tranquil backdrop, a stone lighthouse stood tall.

"What beautiful piano music!" Lin Fan's mood immediately relaxed.

Clicking "Start," the other options and the title of "To the Moon" faded away. The camera continued to move down from the opening scene, past the uniquely beautiful cliff, to the green grass and wildflower-filled suburban scenery, revealing an impressive-looking country villa.

The scene paused at the door, and the piano music gradually faded. Then, the scene switched to the interior, where a piano in the center of the room was very conspicuous.

A little girl with pigtails was sitting on the piano bench, focused on playing something, while a little boy stood behind her, listening quietly. The beautiful piano music continued to flow.

"Screech—," the sound of sudden braking came from outside, followed by a "bang," and the screen shook as if there had been a car accident. The little girl and boy were startled, stopped playing, and looked back at the front door of the house.

Lin Fan was a little surprised: "Although the pixelated graphics are a bit rough, the details are very well done."

Whether it was the movement of the pixelated character's arms as the little girl played, the shaking of the screen, the little girl's and boy's actions of looking outside, or the timing of the BGM changes, one could see the dedication of the game's production.

Not far from the house was an open road. At this time, a black car had a close encounter with a dead tree next to the road. White smoke was coming from the front of the car, and two doctors in white coats opened the doors and jumped out.

Dr. Rosalene had an annoyed bubble above her head: "What were you looking at while driving?"

Dr. Watts had a "..." bubble above his head: "Sorry, I was just trying to avoid that squirrel that suddenly appeared!"

Upon hearing this, Dr. Rosalene turned to look at the road, where a squirrel's corpse lay sprawled: "Either way, you still ran it over."

Dr. Watts said helplessly: "...Oh."

Lin Fan watched the two doctors bickering and found it quite amusing, a smile appearing on his lips.

After the two doctors bickered for a few sentences, he could take control.

Lin Fan followed the instructions and took out a device from the car, thinking, "This is the device that can modify memories, right?"

Walking along the beautiful suburban scenery for a while, he arrived at the door of the house from the beginning of the game.

Inside the room, the little girl was still playing the same piano piece as before. Hearing the knock, the two children shouted in unison, "Mom, they're here!"

A woman poked her head out of the window on the second floor and then disappeared from the window. The camera moved down, as if the woman had gone downstairs to open the door for the two doctors.

The two doctors waited bored at the door with the device, chatting idly.

Dr. Watts: "This will probably be another all-nighter, you know."

Dr. Rosalene: "I know."

Dr. Watts looked around, surveying the house: "And I doubt they'll prepare any coffee."

Dr. Rosalene: "...Shut up."

Lin Fan laughed. Although the game time wasn't long, he could already tell that this Dr. Watts seemed a bit talkative, plus a bit of a goofball, which made Dr. Rosalene quite a headache.

The door opened, and Dr. Watts picked up the device, still muttering, "I feel like my salary is completely disproportionate to my effort..."

As they entered the house, the screen darkened.

Text appeared on the screen:

Act I.

"I never told anyone, but... I always thought they were lighthouses."

The scene returned to the interior of the house. Facing the two doctors stood a woman in simple clothes. She said, "I think you two are Dr. Watts and Dr. Rosalene? It's a great help that you could come so quickly."

In a brief conversation, the two doctors learned that the woman was Lily, the maid of the house. As they were talking, two children ran down the stairs and scurried into another room.

"These are my two children, Sarah and Tommy. This job isn't a 9-to-5 type, so Johnny lets us live here," the maid explained.

Johnny was the owner of the house and the target of the two doctors' mission.

"He's upstairs receiving treatment from the doctor," the maid said, walking towards the stairs leading to the second floor, turning back to say, "Please, come with me."

The case containing the device was naturally carried by the male doctor, Watts. Complaining about his hardships, he followed Dr. Rosalene upstairs with the case.

However, the scene did not move to the second floor.

A dialog box popped up in the lower left corner, as if someone was speaking furtively from an unseen corner.

"Okay, they're gone!"

"First come, first play!"

From the door in the lower left corner, two children ran out, chasing each other to the piano, even arguing about who got there first.

"You cheated, you pushed me!"

"I didn't!"

The little girl huffed and sat next to the little boy on the bench: "Whatever, anyway, you only have the right to play those two boring notes."

The melodious piano music sounded again. The scene slowly moved, two children playing the piano side by side. The warm yellow light inside the house gave a cozy feeling. The sky outside was slightly dark, and from the window, you could see the faint blue night sky with twinkling stars, giving it a cinematic close-up feel.

The scene moved to the second floor.

The two doctors entered the bedroom. As the door behind them clicked shut, the faint piano music from the first floor completely disappeared.

In the center of the bedroom was a bed, where an old man with white hair lay covered with a quilt, his eyes closed, seemingly asleep. Next to the bed, a drip was hanging, one end of the IV tube extending into the quilt, adding to the old man's weakness.

Beside the bed, the maid and the doctor who was treating the old man stood guard.

Dr. Watts put down the heavy equipment case, took out the device, plugged it in, and began setting it up. After some operation, the device emitted a light, indicating that it was working.

The maid looked at the old man on the bed and asked, "So, you two will fulfill any of his wishes, right?"

Dr. Rosalene: "...At least, to the best of my ability."

Dr. Watts said confidently: "But we always succeed! Because we are the authorities among authorities."

Dr. Rosalene: "So, what is his wish?"

The maid was silent for a moment, then replied, "The moon."

"The moon?" Dr. Rosalene had a question mark above her head, obviously confused.

The maid gave a definite reply: "The moon... he wants to go to the moon."

Lin Fan looked at the plot and had the same question: "The moon?"

The name of the game is "To the Moon," so it seems that the main storyline of the game is to modify memories through technologically advanced instruments to help the old man fulfill his wish to go to the moon.

But why is the old man's wish to go to the moon?
