“On the internet, there were many players who inexplicably missed the two-player mode of super Mali. ”
“After such a long time, many people had actually forgotten about the game, but the hot sales of pro had brought a lot of new blood to super Mali, so the topic inexplicably became lively again. ”
A lot of people went back to play super Mali and found that the design concept of the game was still very advanced!
“Especially the sense of the controller and the two-person mode. Until now, there didn’t seem to be a single game on the entire Thunderbolt gaming platform that could reach the level of super Mali. ”
“A lot of players were sighing, too bad Chen Mo didn’t know how to count 2! ”
“If they continued to develop this “”two-player mode,”” they might be able to develop more fun games. ”
“Although super Mali’s two-person mode was very fun, the game was a bit old after all, and most players were already tired of it. ”
Some players had an idea and came up with a genius idea.
“””How about we change Legend of Zelda to two-player mode? One person controlled link, the other controlled Zelda! The plan works!”” ”
“””Then I’ll act as link and you’ll act as Zelda. You’ll play with cannon in the castle the whole time,”” one of the players said. ”
“The player who proposed the genius idea was very dissatisfied.””””But I really think the two-player mode is fun! After playing super Mali again, my girlfriend and I didn’t have any more games to play!”” ”
This simple sentence immediately triggered a strong reaction from the other players.
“””Alright, alright, I know you have a girl now. Get lost!”” ”
“””The two-person mode isn’t easy to do, do you even need to say that? There’s a reason why this game isn’t popular …”” ”
“””I think Chen Mo should just keep on developing something as amazing as Legend of Zelda. What’s so fun about two-person games?”” ”
“Obviously, most players knew that not all games could change to two-player mode. ”
“The two-player mode of super Mali was more of a shortcut, but it also required the support of the game’s mechanism. It could be said that if one wanted to create a two-player mode, then the game had to be considered from the very beginning as a key point. The approach of a single-player game and a two-player game was completely different. ”
“What if the two players in duo mode played the two protagonists, and not purely a cooperative relationship like Mali and capi? There would be even more problems to deal with, and many designers might not even know what to do. ”
“From the playstyle to the script to the shots, everything might have to be redesigned, and everything would be completely different from the mainstream single player mode. ”
“Of course, the “”two-player mode”” here didn’t refer to the online mode of online games. If it was online, let alone two people, even dozens of people wouldn’t be a problem. The two-person mode here referred to something like super Mali, where two players on the same screen worked together, and the two characters were part of the game itself. ”
“Many players still felt that it was a pity. The Switch pro was selling so well, if Chen Mo could make a two-player game that perfectly adapted to the Switch, it would be a hit! ”
……
“””Mr. Chen, I’ve looked through the art resources you asked me to collect before. We can use the resources from mysterious seas. If you don’t have any, you can also find them in the art resource library.”” Zhou Hanyu said. ”
“Zhou Hanyu was now the art director of the entire Thunderbolt Entertainment’s R & D team, fully in charge of the art progress of each project. At the same time, he was also in charge of the entire resource library. ”
“Two days ago, Chen Mo gave him a list of art resources, mainly the game’s scenes and props. He wanted to confirm if the art resources could be taken out from the library, or if there were parts that needed to be made on their own. ”
“After a quick look, Zhou Hanyu realized that more than 90% of the resources here could be taken directly from the warehouse. ”
“Chen Mo nodded.””That’s good. If the art resources are okay, the main work will be on the playstyle and motion capture. The game should be able to be developed in two weeks or even shorter.”” ”
“Zhou Hanyu was a little hesitant.””Manager,”” he asked,””could this game be a sequel to mysterious seas?”” ”
“””Eh? No, it’s not. “” Chen Zhao shook his head. ”
“Zhou Hanyu was a little surprised.””It’s mainly because I feel that the scenes in this story are very similar to those in ‘mysterious waters.’ Some of the scenes … Even feel like they’re repeated. That’s why I thought that it might be a new script for the ‘mysterious waters’ series.”” Come to think of it, it’s a little too similar to mysterious seas …”” ”
“Zhou Hanyu didn’t finish his sentence as he thought it was inappropriate. He thought that Chen Mo was going to use the resources to create a DLC or Side Story for mysterious sea, but after some thought, Chen Mo never did anything like that. ”
“However, if Chen Mo said he could finish it in two weeks, then the game didn’t look like a big production at all … ”
Zhou Hanyu himself was a little confused and couldn’t figure out what Chen Mo was planning.
“Chen Mo smiled.””Perfect, I’ve finished the storyboard. I’ll send it to your email now. Take a look.”” In fact, we can start preparing now. This game is just a small thing anyway. It’s easy to make, and it doesn’t take much effort. “” ”
“Zhou Hanyu returned to his seat. A moment later, he received the script and storyboard from Chen Mo. ”
“However, after reading the beginning, Zhou Hanyu was stunned. ”
“””This is a … Two-person game?”” ”
“It was no wonder that he was very surprised, because “”two-person games”” were really too niche. ”
“Thinking about it, it made sense. Now that everyone was so busy with work, it would be a pain in the ass if they couldn’t play a game by themselves, and they had to play it together. ”
“Moreover, this game was equivalent to a single-player game! All the players with friends had gone to play online games, and the two of them were playing a single player game … What kind of strategy was this? ”
“As he continued reading, Zhou Hanyu realized that his views were constantly being refreshed. ”
“This was truly a game with two main characters. Moreover, the storyboard of this game was extremely cool, at the movie-level standard. ”
“Since the game was in first person, the difference wasn’t too big and was still within acceptable range. ”
“However, on the Switch platform, the two of them played the game on the same screen, and there were many split-screen operations in the game. As the story progressed, the game’s storyboard always firmly grasped the player’s emotions. Zhou Hanyu thought about it and felt that the storyboard was amazing. ”
It was the storyboard standard of a first-class film director!
“However, in terms of art resources, this game was indeed similar to mysterious seas, but it was only “”similar””. The game’s playstyle and plot were completely different from mysterious seas. ”
“Zhou Hanyu finally understood. Chen Mo had indeed made this game after The Legend of Zelda, so he didn’t really care about it. ”
“However, such a small thing would probably overturn some of the players ‘inherent knowledge of the game … ”
