Lin Wan gestured a little: "Where are the other three fingers?"
Old Song still shook his head: "The other three fingers must hold the handle, otherwise the handle will fall off. Besides, the flexibility of those three fingers is far inferior to that of the thumb and index finger. Even if the player is asked to press it, they may not be able to do it.
A habit that can be pressed.”
Ye Zhizhou thought about it carefully and said: "Not necessarily. As long as we add a fixing strap to the handle and tie the handle to the hand, the other three fingers don't have to hold it all the time. The other three fingers can hold the buttons.
It simulates the gripping movement of fingers."
"In this way, the handle can distinguish the fine movements of each finger, and it can have different effects when simulating archery, fishing, shooting, catching things, etc."
Lao Song thought for a while: "Hey? This is a good idea. You can try it. But I have never done this before, and the money is not necessarily enough..."
Lin Wan immediately said: "It doesn't matter, just spend it freely. If the money is not enough, I will find a way."
Ye Zhizhou also smiled slightly and said in front of Tenda Group and Shenhua Group that the money was not enough?
There is only a time when there is too much money to spend, and there is never a time when there is not enough money.
Lin Wan continued: "Okay, then the handle matter is settled. Add buttons to each finger, so that the content of our game can also be played with the help of this handle."
"Any ideas for games?"
Ye Zhizhou thought for a while and said: "Mr. Pei has limited it to casual games and cartoon style. I think the advantage of this is that the grid effect of VR glasses will not be so obvious, and the picture quality will look better, and it will also
It won’t put so much psychological pressure on players.”
"Because the immersion of VR is so strong, if it is a gun battle or horror-themed game, many people may not be able to play it because of fear. But if it is a casual game, there will be no such problems and it will be easier to persist."
"The key issue now is that as a casual game, we must make the gameplay rich enough..."
Lin Wan kept recording the conversations between the two of them in her notebook, presenting many details one by one.
Chief planner Cai Jiadong was simply overwhelmed and couldn't keep up with the two people's ideas.
Just follow these simple rules and analyze so many things?
It’s amazing, how on earth is this done?
Cai Jiadong has worked on projects before, but his design was based on some conventional gameplay. Although everyone had some brainstorming sessions, they basically struggled with the details of the gameplay.
To put it more simply, the core remains basically unchanged, but the outer packaging has been changed over and over again.
Because as a krypton gold game, the gameplay is the same set of things. Any replacement of any function will affect the profit and cannot be tampered with.
But it is obviously different at Chi Xing Studio. Lin Wan and Ye Zhizhou seem to be completely considering the form of a game from scratch.
Other game companies first determine the general form of the game and then hold meetings to discuss some specific details; while Chixing Studio uses some details to come up with the final form of the game.
This made Cai Jiadong feel amazing. While listening carefully, he quickly recorded the details of the meeting.
Lin Wan sorted out the results of the discussion and said, "In this case, the game can be finalized."
"The VR game we want to make includes casual gameplay, simulated business gameplay and sandbox construction gameplay."
"The player is born on an isolated island. The goal of the game is to transform the entire island into his own paradise. On the isolated island, players can reclaim wasteland, farm, hunt, fish, plant trees, flowers, build houses, etc."
"These gameplays must be completed by the player's hands. For example, when hunting, the player needs to use the handle to simulate the action of opening a bow and setting an arrow or shooting a gun; when fishing, the player needs to throw the fishing rod, pull the rod, catch the fish personally and throw it into the bucket, etc."
"Of course, after players feel a little tired, we also allow players to obtain special robots to take care of farmland or gardens by completing tasks, so that players do not have to perform these repetitive actions all the time."
"In normal mode, the player is the first-person perspective, and all activities on the island must be done personally."
"The game can also enter a God's perspective and business mode. Players can overlook the entire island and transform the entire island from a God's perspective. Of course, this mode requires players to conduct preliminary development before it can be opened."
"At the same time, the game also supports simple online play. You can go to other players' islands to meet friends. Players can also team up to go to desert islands to reclaim wasteland and hunt to obtain materials."
"Of course, the image of players in online play is a big issue."
"In the past, VR glasses also had some online small programs, but the effects were not good because the device could only capture the player's hand movements, but could not restore the movements of the arms and shoulders based on the hand movements."
"In this way, the movements will look very stiff to other players."
"Many VR games will remove the two arms and leave only the hands. But this will look very strange."
"We happen to have a cartoon style, so we can make players into various cute anthropomorphic animals, and at the same time, we can make their movements similar to rubber figures. In this way, their hands can hold their arms, and it looks like
It won’t look weird, but will make people feel very cute.”
"In addition, the most important point is to have enough interactive effects with the handles of VR glasses."
"There may be a lot of collecting actions in our game, such as picking a flower, picking up a fruit, etc., but these actions mean that the player has to bend down and lower his head. If he has to bend down and lower his head every time he picks up something, it will be very difficult for the player.
It’s too cumbersome and boring to say.”
"So we have to make a function similar to 'retrieving objects from the air' so that players don't get too tired of playing. Moreover, functions such as storing props should be operated using VR controllers as much as possible."
"In terms of packaging, the main themes are forests, animals and cartoons with a casual style, but there should also be some technological elements. Some less reasonable content can be packaged with 'black technology'."
"In the end... that's the name of the game."
"I'm a bit incompetent at naming..."
Ye Zhizhou said: "This is the first project of Chi Xing Studio. It would be better for you to decide the name of the game."
Lin Wan thought for a while: "Well, how about... let's call it "Animal Island"! Although it's not a good name, it should be passable."
Ye Zhizhou nodded: "Well, we can tentatively decide on this name. If we think of something better in the future, we can change it."
Lin Wan looked at Lao Song again: "Looking back, I will summarize the operations that need to be used in the game, such as retrieving objects from the air, drawing a bow and setting an arrow, etc. At that time, the development of the controller may need to take care of these functions, such as adding different functions.
Mode of vibration, adding sensors to identify pressure, touch, optical data, etc.”
"These details will seriously affect the players' gaming experience. We must not be careless. We must try our best to combine software and hardware so that the game and VR glasses can perfectly cooperate to give players the best gaming experience!"
Lao Song nodded: "Don't worry, if you have any requests, just ask, I will definitely cooperate with you! Anyway, as long as the funds are in place, these problems should be solved. Even if they cannot be solved perfectly, we should be able to find alternatives!
"
Lin Wan let out a sigh of relief: "Okay, the details of the game are almost done. I will seize the time to write out the design plan later, and everyone can go work on it!"
After the meeting was held and the specific form of the game was finalized, Lin Wan felt relieved.
Without the "Tengda working methods" she learned at Yangyang Games, she might not have been able to handle the work at Chi Xing Studio.
