Chapter 1699 Game Video
After seeing it, I was dazed and I always felt a sense of indescribable weirdness.
I can't figure out what the problem is.
My mother knocked on the door and asked me to have dinner outside.
I put down the file and left the room with constant confusion.
"What's wrong, brother?" My sister reached out and poked my forehead.
I frowned, and when she poked me like this, I wasn't doing anything. She giggled first and pressed twice.
I avoided my sister's hand and picked up my job, "It's nothing, I'm thinking about work."
"Oh. Haven't you signed the contract all the time?" the sister asked vaguely while picking up the dishes.
"It's time to sign the contract, but there are other things to do." I replied.
The sister nodded.
"Don't work too hard," Mom advised, "I have to think about this on weekends. Have a good rest."
"Nothing. I know it myself." I nodded.
After dinner, I went back to my room to see the files. I read the words again, but I didn't find anything strange. But the feeling of being stuck in my throat made me feel very uncomfortable.
I opened the notebook, plugged the USB flash drive in, listened to the recording again, and opened the game video uploaded by Xiaomi.
As soon as the video file is opened, the first thing you see is some interfaces.
The interface of the official version of "Sei Ling" is gray-black tones, which is a very common horror game style. The right half of the picture is the apartment building and the left half has options. The background sound is the sound of drizzle of rain, accompanied by the sound of thunder from time to time, and there will be flashing lightning special effects in the picture. Although it is a bit simple, it is full of atmosphere.
There are not so many patterns in the beta version. The picture lacks a little texture, which is a bit like the difference between a novice painting and a master painting, and the details are lacking.
For example, the beta apartment building is a gray building, but in the official version, the mottled paint on the building is vaguely visible.
The beta version has no sound effects and special effects, and the game options box on the left half is just a simple box.
Xiaomi's introduction talked endlessly: "This game is a horror decryption game made by individuals. It can be tried for free on S's official website. After writing the beta version, the author also said that it will be optimized later, such as this screen, background sound, etc. However, the game quality should be very good. I read the comments..."
The mouse clicks on the window in the start bar, opens the official release page of the game, and you can see the comments under the game. There are negative reviews, but everyone complains that the game has no sound effects and the picture is unsatisfactory. Most of the NPCs and story plots in the game are good reviews.
Scroll the mouse and flip to the game introduction above.
"We can see this. The maker is quite ambitious. I don't know if it's a gimmick or something... a hundred endings. I don't know if this is true or false. But read the comments..."
The screen rolls to the comment section again.
"...There are many ways to die in this game, and it is full of tricks. If you accidentally step on a mine, you will die immediately. You will die in an instant. And there is no save. I don't know how many times I will die before I can pass the level. I haven't seen anyone pass the level now."
The screen window switches to the game window.
"I actually played it twice before, and died twice, which is so miserable. However, I have roughly mastered the ideas of this game maker."
Click "PLAY" with the mouse, and the main interface of the game becomes a black screen, with text appearing on it.
Without narration dubbing or background music, Xiaomi read it next to her.
"My name is Ye Zi, and I am a detective. Three days ago, I received a commission to investigate a murder case nineteen years ago. The deceased was a 31-year-old man, unmarried, single, rented in an apartment building and was found dead in his own home. The police found four suspects, all of whom were tenants of the apartment at that time, but they all proved their innocence. The case turned into a headless case. The person who entrusted me chose to be anonymous, but sent a check and a letter with earnest words. I was also very interested in the bizarre case, so I accepted his commission and started the investigation."
The narration ends here.
Xiaomi said: "The background and goal of the game are already very clear. We just want to play a detective and find out the truth about a murder case."
The screen lights up and the apartment building appears.
The picture is enlarged, and the background music is exciting, but it is a familiar classic piece.
"The soundtrack is actually OK, and they all meet the needs. But the author probably has no money... no investment. He chose the music of the public version, and there is nothing new."
The sound of footsteps and the sound of pushing the door sounded, and the screen switched to the entrance hall of the apartment building.
"This sound effect can also be heard, it is the content of the public material library. There is no difference. All characters in the game have such sound effect. Okay, we have come in now. You can see that this is the hall, basically nothing. There is a long corridor in front... There is a door here. You can click."
The still screen switches again.
This game method is also different from the official version. It is not about manipulating the character to walk, but finding clues in the still screen.
"The trouble with this game is that the mouse will not change, so you have to try it out in many places. However, the click range is quite large, just grab the edge. This is the house of the landlord of the apartment building, and he is the manager. We are talking to him now."
When the door opened, a male NPC appeared. Like the memory of the shrimp I saw in my dream, it also looked like the landlord in the official version, but it lacked a lot of details. It looked like a simple sketch, but it was quite distinctive.
"The paintings of this game are actually quite good. The author's skills can be seen."
A dialog box appears in the screen, and the landlord seems to be talking to himself. After asking the question, he gives a reaction after getting the answer. This process does not require players to do anything.
"We are now renting a room in the apartment and investigating it nearby. The room that happened was 901. We couldn't rent that room...'That room leaks, and we can't live in someone else' and refused. Let's take a look..."
The landlord disappeared for a while, then appeared again, and there was an extra notebook in his hand.
"'There are 304,711 left in the empty room...that's all, you choose one, the rent is the same.' I chose 906 before, which is the same floor as the room to be investigated. This is easy to think of. It ends up dead... Alas, okay, I'll let you see how I died..." Xiaomi said this and clicked "906".
As I watched the picture change, Xiaomi recited the landlord's lines and couldn't help but think.
Room 906 is a trap, but it is a trap to explain the background of the game.
There was a ghost in the room, an alcoholic who had died there before. He attacked the player on the first night and killed the detective.
His appearance also shows that there is a setting like ghost in this game.
I continued to watch the video. As I remember, the player character controlled by Xiaomi heard the sound of a bottle breaking in the middle of the night. He got up and saw the ghost of the drunkard, resisted, frightened, and ran away. He realized that there was an invincible ghost here and was killed by the drunkard.
