Not counting this, what shocked Lin Xiao was that on the Leli gaming platform, among the more than 2,000 players who purchased Go to the Moon, more than 200 people applied for refunds, and the number is still increasing.
The refund rate of one-tenth made Lin Xiao frightened for a while.
He looked again and saw that the review section of the game "To the Moon" on the Leli gaming platform was filled with all kinds of negative reviews.
"After playing for more than an hour, I really can't stand it. The picture quality is unsightly and the plot is as bland as water. How could Leli Games make such a game? Just treat it as the support fee for the previous audio game and refund it.
I’m too lazy to quit. I hope Leli Games won’t let us die-hard fans down again.”
"There is almost no gameplay, it is just a puzzle game, full of nonsense, I don't know what it is trying to express."
"The music in it is good, but I really can't stand it. The plot keeps going around and around. It made me sleepy."
"Although I like Leli Games very much, I can't support it this time."
Lin Xiao was shocked. This was probably the so-called acclimatization.
In this world, more sophisticated picture quality and games are so dominant that pixel games have almost been eliminated.
It seems that it is not that simple to go to the moon to bring hope to pixel games.
Here, seeing the game being denied, Artoria was angry.
"The reputation of the game should be decided by the players. If it is really buried in the end, it means that pixel games are really not in line with the current gaming circle." Lin Xiao said with a smile: "But, I believe that the players will not let it.
A good game is buried. After all, this is sparkling gold. Do you think anyone would not pick it up when they see it?"
"Are these players just playing the game based on the image quality? They have said that it is plot-oriented, and there must be some foreshadowing when telling a story. Isn't this unacceptable?"
Lin Xiao said helplessly: "It's not entirely their fault. The situation of the pixel game itself is indeed delicate..."
Concerned about her favorite game, Atoriya said anxiously: "Then let's post a clarification on Weibo? Otherwise, if this continues, fewer and fewer players will buy it, and good games will be buried."
"No, no need. I found that the players who gave refunds and negative reviews all played the game for less than 2 hours, but To the Moon is a game that requires 2 hours of play time to play the key second part of the game.
Only when you play there can you feel the charm of going to the moon.
These players who cannot accept the poor picture quality, the bland plot in the early stage, and the simple gameplay do not have the opportunity to come to the second act. The game is over, so they naturally have no good impressions of the game.
But, I think there will always be people who stick to the back, right? When the time comes, they will definitely speak out for going to the moon."
Atoriya thought about it and understood: "Do you think it will be better if the players do it for us rather than us clarifying it ourselves?"
Shanhai City is indeed beautiful at night. The gorgeous neon lights illuminate the city in various colors. In the charming night sky dotted with bright stars, a lovely white crescent moon hangs high. The starry sky is clear and the moon is hazy, which is so beautiful.
At night, the occasional breeze makes people feel particularly refreshing and comfortable.
When she came out of the apartment and saw the night like this, Atoriya showed a contented expression. She glanced at Lin Xiao and affirmed: "It's rare that you have good vision. It would be a pity to miss such a night view."
Lin Xiao raised a slight smile at the corner of his mouth: "Yes, let's feel the unique charm of this night today." He felt very happy, because as long as the girl in front of him likes it, it would be the best.
Afterwards, the two of them took a leisurely walk side by side, chatting together, their shadows stretched long by the street lights.
After walking for a while, the two came to a park.
Lin Xiao stopped and looked at the wide open-air lawn in the park: "Atolia, let's go there, enjoy the night sky for a while, and take a rest."
Atria nodded with a bright expression.
The two entered the park and lay side by side on the lawn.
Neither of them spoke a word, and it was quiet for a moment.
Lin Xiao got ready and started talking: "I remember when I was young, we watched the stars together like this. In a blink of an eye, we have both grown up. Artorya, you have become very beautiful now."
Such a straightforward compliment shocked Atolya, and then her fair face turned red, with a bit of shame and anger on her face, and her voice was a bit louder than usual: "Lin Xiao, you, you suddenly
What are you talking about?" Lin Xiao laughed: "I'm just going to express my feelings. What, are you shy?"
"No!" Artorya immediately retorted, and then, still a little annoyed, she bumped Lin Xiao, who was lying next to her, with her right elbow.
"It hurts! My waist! It's killing me!" Lin Xiao yelled exaggeratedly, then continued with a smile: "It's not a big deal to be shy. Artorya, it doesn't matter if you admit it."
Atorya was going crazy now. She raised her right elbow and hit Lin Xiao with 5 consecutive blows.
At this time, Lin Xiao really felt a little pain, and he corrected helplessly: "Okay, I made a mistake, not because I was shy."
Artorya snorted and said in a queen-like tone: "Forget it this time, there won't be a next time."
After speaking, she muttered in a soft voice: "Otherwise, the dark power of the mysterious world will drag a fool like you into the abyss."
Oh, girl, your middle school nature has been exposed. Lin Xiao tried his best to resist the desire to complain. He smiled and changed the topic: "Sometimes, I often think of the interesting times in the past. When I was in junior high school,
You invited me to your house to play. When I got to your room, I saw the six-pointed star magic circle you drew. I really thought it was magical. Then, you asked me if I wanted to sign a contract and become your dark companion. I didn’t think much about it at the time.
I agreed. Later, I also followed you around and a lot of interesting things happened. Although it seems a bit out of place now, it was really a carefree and happy time. Oh, and your sister,
Hinata and Xizhu, those two little girls, I haven’t seen them for a long time, so I should go back to Chiba to see them when I have time. They were our loyal supporters back then."
When her past secondary school history was mentioned, Artoria's eyes naturally showed a bit of nostalgia. She was a little embarrassed and her pretty face became warm.
However, she was relieved a long time ago. No matter what, it was an innocent, pure and extremely beautiful time in the past.
Artorya pondered for a moment before taking over Lin Xiao's words: "After all, you are also a middle school idiot... A bad guy in your class in junior high school bullied his classmates everywhere, and you couldn't stand it. Later, you had a fight with that guy.
, there are five of them, and you are one, although you were beaten badly, but you also beat that guy to a pig's head, so we are both defeated and injured."
"I'm telling you, when there are many opponents in a fight, don't be nervous or afraid. Go after their leader and give full play to the principle of catching the thief first and catch the king first. Use your own momentum to show off. Anyway, that guy was beaten by me that time.
I was afraid of being beaten and didn’t dare to bully anyone anymore. Our class at that time..."
"Stop...!" Artorya interrupted him and said disgustedly: "I know even if you don't tell me, your class teacher even praised you in private. The reason why I am more impressed by this is because
In junior high school, I heard you bragging to me at least thirty times."
Lin Xiao scratched his head: "Hey, I can't help it. This is one of the few things I was proud of when I was a child..." As he said, he remembered something again and continued: "By the way, Artorya, you wrote before
I have written a lot of fan light novels. At that time, those publishing houses were too poor to see what a spiritual work they were. Now we are not short of money and can publish them at our own expense. If you are still interested, we will write the light novel for you first.
, let’s publish 10,000 copies.”
At that time, Atorya was in school and fell in love with writing light novels. Her novels had more settings, were more messy, and had various streams of consciousness with unclear meanings.
As a result, I submitted my submission to light novel publishing houses many times but was rejected.
Seeing the depressed and disappointed Atoriya after being rejected, he could only comfort her with words. Lin Xiao always cared about her.
Now, her own game publisher Ye Yin: has made money. If Artoria still wants to publish her light novel, she will definitely support it without reservation.
"Ah?" Artorya was stunned for a moment, and she said in surprise: "It's been so long, and no one has bought it now that it's been published."
"Who said that? Don't you have three die-hard readers around you? Me, Hinata, and Xizhu! The three of us will definitely buy it when the time comes."
"Besides the sisters, there is no point in publishing if you are the only one." Artoria said without interest.
Lin Xiao pretended to be an arrogant tone of nouveau riche: "It's okay, you have money and will do whatever you want."
Atoriya was amused. She clearly felt Lin Xiao's concern, but she still said stubbornly: "No, no need, Game Master Ye Yin: There will be many places where I need to spend money in the future, and I don't want to do that right now."
publishing."
"Really? You can mention it whenever you want to publish it," Lin Xiao said gently.
At this time, Artoria seemed to have thought of something. She changed the topic and said, "Lin Xiao, you invited me for a walk. You probably have other things to say. You can talk about it now."
After hearing this, Lin Xiao looked surprised. He seemed to have hidden it very well. Why, he was guessed now. He asked curiously: "How did you know?"
"I have been in this city for five months, and you have never asked me to take a walk with you at night. Tonight is an exception. Is it possible that you have nothing to do? I will not be as stupid as you?" Artorya was extremely confident.
said.
"Since everything has been seen through, I will tell you directly." After Lin Xiao finished speaking, he took a deep breath, his expression became very serious, and he said slowly: "Atria, can you go to the moon with me?
?”
"Wait a minute." Atoriya was a little confused and asked weirdly: "Why are we going to the moon together?"
"Um." Lin Xiao was stunned by the question. He was silent for a while and said vaguely: "Don't worry about what you are doing. Just answer my question directly."
Atria replied without thinking: "I won't go!"
Being rejected was a bit complete. Lin Xiao hid his inner disappointment and asked puzzledly: "Why?"
"I have seen pictures on the satellite. There is no moon palace on the moon. Chang'e and Moon Rabbit are all bumpy soil. What's more, as the incarnation of the Night Demon Queen, darkness is my destination and pursuit, and the moon has nothing to do with it!
"Atolia said matter-of-factly.
Lin Xiao put his right hand on his forehead, laughed dryly, and confessed: "Actually, I want to tell you that I am going to make a pixel text adventure game called Go to the Moon recently. I was just looking for inspiration. By the way, I will give it to you in advance.
Let me tell you, I plan to make this game independently. The workload of the game is not heavy and it will be released this week. I will ask you to test it then."
"You want to make it independently, mysteriously, it's that simple?" Artoria said suspiciously, and then, as if she was sure, she said: "Lin Xiao, you must be hiding something fishy in it."
"Yes, I can't hide it from you. After a week, you will know that the game is great and there are surprises." Lin Xiao said with full information.
"Oh? With such confidence and surprises, I'm a little bit interested. I hope you don't disappoint me."
Hearing Artorya's enthusiastic answer, a meaningful smile appeared on Lin Xiao's face. After playing the game, you will know what it means to go to the moon together.
Lin Xiao has always been a type of emotional idiot. It is not easy to come up with such an idea.
Lying on the lawn, Lin Xiao felt a little confused for some reason. He stared at the crescent moon in the night sky, as soft as water.
He thought: Artoria, will you continue to refuse, or...
It took more than thirty minutes for Artorya to calm down.
She was bored and suddenly thought of something.
Atoriya thought of Lin Xiao's confidence when he talked about going to the moon, and that night, Lin Xiao invited her to go for a walk. Later, they went to the park together and lay on the open lawn to rest. At that time, there were brilliant starry skies and beautiful scenery.
of the moon.
Then, Lin Xiao suddenly asked the weird question: "Atolia, are you interested in going to the moon with me?"
At that time, Artorya saw that Lin Xiao's eyes were surprisingly serious, and it seemed that there was an emotion hidden in his pupils.
She didn't care at that time, but now after playing "Go to the Moon", Artorya realized it.
Let’s go to the moon together. Could it be that what Lin Xiao really wants to express is...
Thinking of this, Atoriya's eyes were full of surprise and shyness, and a beautiful blush quietly appeared, quickly dyeing her white cheeks into a touching crimson color.
Feeling her cheeks feel slightly hot, Atoriya's mind was in a mess. Is this really the case? She couldn't help but ask herself this in her heart.
It seemed that she had come up with a definite answer in her heart. Artorya's expression showed joy. The blush on her face gradually deepened and spread. Finally, her ears and white neck were also filled with a faint blush. The shy major general
Her poetic feelings are extremely moving.
Artorya, who was ashamed and happy, didn't dare to think about it anymore.
After struggling for a while, Atoriya's mind changed. What if she had made a mistake?
This sudden thought made Atoriya's face darken a lot. She couldn't help but worry about gains and losses. For some reason, her heart strings twitched, and the past events came to her mind.
In the past, Wu Geng Liuli felt that no matter how she looked, she was an ordinary girl.
I've never been very good at studies, and I'm not very good at sports. Apart from my specialty of cooking and caring for my sisters, I don't seem to have anything to be proud of.
Until one day, I encountered another strange and wonderful world.
This may be a decision of fate, or it may be the arrival of an opportunity. Wu Geng Liuli has witnessed many incredible things.
She suddenly felt that she could change and become the proud, mysterious, and extraordinarily beautiful Night Demon Queen.
After putting on the clothes sewn by myself for sex, I seemed to have become a handsome, generous, elegant and proud existence like the Night Demon Queen.
Chiba's Fallen Saint Atria, with a name like this, it sounds like a powerful and powerful person, right?
However, change is not that simple. Her studies are still average, and she is still not good at sports. What disappoints her most is that there are almost no people around her who can get along well with her. She also tries to work hard, but always fails.
At that time, he was the only one by my side.
He will happily follow him to be silly. He will say, Artoria, your lines are so cool. When he sees the six-pointed star magic circle he drew, his eyes will sparkle when he looks at her.
If you say, one day, who do you want to accompany you in your life, the answer is self-explanatory
Atria sighed softly, she was a little at a loss.
The ripples quietly rippling in my heart, going round and round, unable to calm down or let go.
After a while, Atoriya decided that since she wanted to know, she would go and ask.
She opened chat TT and sent a message to Lin Xiao. "Going to the moon was unexpectedly amazing. I was touched and liked it very much." Maybe it was because going to the moon really moved Atolya, she confessed.
Incomparable.
Lin Xiao: "It seems that I dug up a piece of sparkling gold ore. Hey, then I would like to congratulate myself for passing your test." From this chat text, Atoliya can feel Lin Xiao
He was so relaxed and proud. This game was so amazing that Artorya was convinced, so she didn't hurt him, otherwise she would be too arrogant and wanton.
And the next step was the highlight. Atoriya took a deep breath, hesitated for a while, and then slowly typed on the keyboard. Her fingers were trembling slightly, and her beautiful face was already red.
Ripe red apples are generally attractive.
"Lin Xiao...that day on our walk on the open lawn, you asked me a question. Do you still remember it?"
After pressing the Enter key, Artorya stared at the chat box nervously.
After a while, Lin Xiao replied: "Remember, I asked you if you are interested in going to the moon together?"
"What does this sentence mean?" Atoriya's body tensed up.
"Literally." Lin Xiao replied quickly this time.
Seeing this, Atoriya's heart sank slightly. She didn't know what to say next, but she was a little embarrassed and disappointed.
But at this time, Lin Xiao added: "Of course, it's not that simple. If you can accept my intention, I will be very happy... However, I hope you can think carefully before responding.
I."
Atoriya didn't know what kind of mood Lin Xiao had in developing the game "Go to the Moon" to make such an implicit confession.
However, she felt a happy and sweet feeling in her heart because she was being valued so much.
However, shyness soon took over. Atoriya's face turned red and her breathing became unsmooth. Then, she replied in a panic: "I understand."
