Chapter 39 jump scare

In the early hours of the morning, Yu Nan opened the door, and saw Lang Xi and Zhu Yao huddled together on the sofa in the living room, as if they were looking at something? iPad?

Yu Nan, who was still immersed in the "sluggish" state after the shock of "Layers of Fear", suddenly regained his spirits, rushed downstairs with all his teeth and claws, and squeezed between the two of them abruptly.

Because Zhu Yao and Lang Xi were very close together, Yu Nan sat between them, with Zhu Yao and Lang Xi on each other's legs.The center of gravity was a little unstable, and Yu Nan simply grabbed the shoulders of the two of them.

"I just took Ms. Zhu to open the game." Lang Xi showed Yu Nan the contents of the tablet speechlessly. It was Lang Daoer's video explaining "Layers of Fear".

"I'm not here to break you up." Yu Nan separated the two, forced a gap, and sat between Zhu Yao and Lang Xi.

Zhu Yao silently gave up some space to the side, Lang Xi shrugged and seemed to be speechless at Yu Nan's childish behavior.

"I'm here to join you, and I want to listen too."

"Okay, we just talked about jumpscare."

Jumpscare comes from the 1976 movie "The Witch Carrie". It is a common expression technique often used in horror works to create a horror atmosphere. It can be understood as sudden shock, face-to-face killing, and jumping.

Jumpscare is one of the common methods used in horror games, but it is only the lowest scare.

A really good horror game has a certain depth.

"Jumpscare is the lowest level technique in horror games." Lang Xi paused, then looked at Yu Nan meaningfully, "But for some people, it is surprisingly practical."

Yu Nan:? ? ?What do you mean?

"Do you think "Layers of Fear" is scary?"

Zhu Yao: "Not scary."

Yu Nan: "Scary!"

Lang Xi nodded, "Tell each of you how you feel."

"It's super scary!" Yu Nan clenched his hands into claws, and the tendons on the back of his hands bulged from the force, "Those things often "click" to move... The background music is also very permeating! The atmosphere is eerie! Won't you be startled suddenly?!"

Zhu Yao/Lang Xi: "No."

Yu Nan looked up to the sky and let out a long sigh of relief, slumped back on the sofa, showing the posture of Ge You lying down, "Okay, I'm the only one who is afraid, I'm the most cowardly trash in the world..."

"Where's Miss Zhu?" Lang Xi ignored Yu Nan's resentful thoughts and turned to look at Zhu Yao.

"Me?" Zhu Yao stared at the void in front of her, as if recalling something, "I'm not easily frightened, and I can guess where there is high energy when playing games, so naturally I won't be frightened. Horror is more about appreciation."

Appreciate those levels with an artistic flavor. After all, the art design of Layers of Fear is very brilliant, the music is rendered just right, and the plot is relatively deep. misunderstanding.

"That is to say, Miss Zhu can see the hints of the game levels?"

Zhu Yao nodded, "Obviously, whether it's the red bottle, the reflection, or the writing on the wall, you can predict what will happen to a certain extent."

"Also, the game is rhythmic, and it will control my emotional relaxation when playing, and I can't relax or tense all the time, so I can guess when it will scare me."

Lang Xi poked Yu Nan, who was slumped on the sofa full of resentment, with his finger, "And you, miss Zhu, let me tell you the hint when she is playing."

"It's useless to tell me." Yu Nan didn't know when she took a pillow and buried her head in it like an ostrich. I lay on her lap and listened to her read the game, and when the BGM suddenly sounded, I also felt panicked."

Lang Xi: "You two had a great time..."

Yu Nan moved the pillow away, and made a grinning expression at Lang Xi, trying to annoy her, but Lang Xi sneered instead.

Yu Nan simply hugged the pillow and lay straight between the two of them, looking at the familiar ceiling in the living room.

Before Zhu Yao came, the living room was always empty, and the whole villa was always empty.Yu Nan usually plays games in his study, and when he needs reference, he goes downstairs to play games, and most of the time he just lies in the living room in a daze.

In an empty house, surrounded by silence, where there is only one person, thoughts will spread far away, and inspiration will pop up little by little, chattering in her mind.

When she was in a daze and had accumulated enough inspiration, Yu Nan would go to the study room to record the inspiration one by one and put it into the game, and those fans and players were full of praise for her brainstorming game demo clips.

In this way, even if she didn't complete the game, she became a "game producer", attracting players with sporadic brain fragments.

At that time, she was still on the raccoon, relying on inspiration to bring a lot of refreshing gameplay to the game of the raccoon, many people said that she was too talented to stay in the raccoon to change the game packaging for krypton gold, and wanted her to go out and do it alone .

The praise of the players made her overheated, Yu Nan left Liji, rejected Lang Xi's kindness to help her, and wanted to create an independent game with her passion.

After rejecting Lang Xi's joining, Lang Xi said something that impressed Yu Nan deeply: "You can't make a game by yourself."

Lang Xi always poured cold water on her, but Yu Nan was never convinced at that time.

So what if Lang Xi graduated from the University of Utah, which is ranked No. [-] in the game major in the world!Games are an emerging industry, and the game major has not been around for many years.

Therefore, she designed the Lost Garden, which is the story of a teenager entering the hidden world of the gods. After the trailer was released at the beginning, the players were overwhelmed, and some even touted "The Lost Garden" as the light of domestic production.

But what fanaticism brings is often blindness with no benefit at all. Those who touted Yu Miao calmed down and raised countless doubts.

Facing those doubts, Yu Nan was speechless, and the words Lang Xi said to her were like a golden bell ringing in her heart - "Yu Nan, you can't make a game by yourself."

"Because you don't have the ability to design a complete game."

Unreconciled and unconvinced have long faded away with time and overwhelming doubts. Lang Xi's words were like a "curse" on Yu Nan's head, always reminding Yu Nan that you can't do it.The once passionate blood has long been smashed to the ground by the iron fist of reality.

"Hey, don't be dazed." Lang Xi shook her finger, pulling Yu Nan back from his daze to reality, "What are you thinking?"

Yu Nan was upset and opened her mouth to bite Lang Xi's fingers dangling in front of her eyes.Lang Xi reacted very quickly, and quickly withdrew his hand. Yu Nan clenched his upper and lower teeth fiercely, and made an obvious "creak".

"Are you... a dog?" Lang Xi looked at his hands with a little palpitation, "Fortunately, I reacted quickly, otherwise I would have to go out and get rabies vaccine."

"Hurry up and call, and take your luggage away with you!" Yu Nan turned over and lay down on the sofa, her voice became muffled through the sofa, "Aren't you complimenting Yao, you go ahead, don't poke if you have nothing to do .”

"Miss Lang just praised you." Zhu Yao put her hand on Yu Nan's back and stroked it like a cat. "What's wrong? Is it uncomfortable?"

Zhu Yao's voice instantly soothed Yu Nan's irritability, and Yu Nan really wanted to rush over in an instant.

Be reserved, Yu Nan, you should be reserved, Lang Xi is still by your side!Even if Lang Xi wasn't around, she didn't know Zhu Yao that well.

Wait, Lang Xi praised her?

Yu Nan straightened up and sat up, looking at Lang Xi with the expression of seeing a ghost.

Lang Xi was suppressing a smile, turning sideways to meet her eyes.

Without hesitation, Yu Nan stretched out his hands, put them on Lang Xi's face and tore them wildly, as if he was wrestling with Lang Xi: "Say, who are you and why are you wearing Lang Xi's clothes! You're still wearing Lang Xi's skin! "

Lang Xi grabbed Yu Nan's hands and pressed Yu Nan on the sofa, "I don't fight with children!"

Yu Nan nodded, "That's right, it's the real Lang Xi."

Lang Xi rolled her eyes angrily, "If you couldn't do it, I wouldn't have proposed to go with you at the beginning, and I wouldn't come here now."

Yu Nan felt particularly wronged, "Didn't you say that I can't make a game? I don't have the ability to design a complete game."

Yu Nan lowered his head and stared at his toes, "You're right, I really can't do it."

Seeing that Yu Nan was beginning to mourn again, Lang Xi knocked Yu Nan's head hard, Yu Nan hugged his head with an "Aww", and looked at Lang Xi angrily.

"You let me finish the sentence." Lang Xi was speechless. "You were the same back then. You ran away after saying harsh words. You didn't even want to listen to my explanation."

"Otherwise?" Yu Nan put her arms around her knees and turned her head away, not wanting to meet Lang Xi's eyes.

Of course Yu Nan knew that Lang Xi hadn't finished speaking, but she was holding back her breath and didn't want to see this fact.

Lang Xi knew that Yu Nan, who was treated like a primary school student, had to be coerced and coerced.In the past few years, I have realized another truth-to teach children not to deny, but to praise more.

"It's like this." Lang Xi began to praise Yu Nan, "You have an innate advantage in designing games. This is an advantage that many people such as me, Ms. Zhu, Yu Hua, etc. do not have. This is also the advantage of your previous demo. root cause for many audiences."

Yu Nan was flattered, "What advantages do I have?"

"This involves the essence of games." Lang Xi smiled mysteriously, "What do you say is the purpose of creating games?"

Zhu Yao: "Probably... a game is a world, and the ninth art is to tell a good story in a complete world view..."

"It looks like a novel," Lang Xi shrugged. "Part of it is true, but it's too one-sided. Games are about telling stories, but there are also many games that don't need plots, such as No.1 shooting games, business simulation games, etc."

Zhu Yao's heart: Don't tell me that I am a novelist!

Yu Nan: "Create a big environment, and then guide the player's emotions through interaction?"

"Your answer is too broad and applies to all artistic creations, but the answer to "guiding emotions" is on point."

Lang Xi took out a pen and paper, and wrote two words on it - experience.

"The purpose of creating a game is not to tell the story, but to create something specific that the player can experience in the interaction."
