Chapter 269 You can do it
"This mountain looks a bit inferior..."
Erxiao complained.
At this moment, a 3D mountain panorama was displayed in front of all the viewers in the live broadcast room.
And this is also the main interface of the game "Celeste".
The mountains are constantly rotating, and you can vaguely see hotels, cable cars, and weird-looking buildings on them.
But as Er Xiao said, the 3D modeling of this mountain seems a bit perfunctory.
"By the way, isn't what we saw in the PV a pixel-style game? Alright, alright."
"Just climb up and that's it. I'll tell him a number and I'll clear him today!"
"Go, go, go!"
Water lovers can’t wait to see this long-awaited mountain climbing game.
Also, when he thought that what he saw in the PV was actually a pixel-style game, Erxiao stopped talking so much nonsense.
The main interface is pitifully simple.
The most eye-catching position is not "Start Game", but the words "Climb".
To choose to climb, players need to choose one of three save slots.
"This archive column is really well designed, just like an envelope, and Madeleine's photo sticker is so cute."
Madeleine, who has red hair and a chubby face, blinked on the left side of the envelope.
Under this archive, in addition to the start option, "Help Mode: Off" appears unusually eye-catching.
[In Help mode, you can modify the game rules to suit your unique needs.
Including slowing down the game speed, making yourself invincible or infinite physical strength, etc., and skipping entire chapters.
Azure is designed to give you a gaming experience that is both challenging and satisfying, if you can't beat the game on the default difficulty.
We hope you can still get that experience with Help Mode.
Do you want to play the game in help mode? ]
[Yes/No]
"It's getting bad! Damn it! The mercy of the legendary old thief! I finally came across the scene today!"
The pity of the old thief is a widely circulated meme in the Blue Star gaming circle, and even many foreign players will use this meme.
Its main scope of application lies in a series of extremely difficult games made by Luo Bai, which are so difficult that many lightweight players cannot properly experience the overall process of the game and make compromises.
For example, the Brightness difficulty of Darkest Dungeon, a series of unfixed truancy bugs in Dark Souls, the official modifiers in Doom, etc.
Generally, when encountering such a prompt, the way the game is opened will become frightening.
"If you buy it, you must leave it. When Erxiao breaks his defense, everyone should take out the photos of Erxiao and press them."
"Is it possible that someone is really hiding this old woman's photo? Isn't it possible?"
"Madeline is so cute. With such a cute painting style, she still has to smile and play no matter how difficult it is. It's not a big problem."
Players who really like Chunxin games, and are definitely not players who have watched Chunxin's most famous games such as Dark Souls and Two Players through some short videos on the Internet.
Not to mention hardcore, it’s not relevant to casual players anyway.
These people just like to challenge themselves.
Therefore, many people actually make jokes about it, but have no inner fluctuations in the "help mode" given by Weilan.
They are players who have gone through the Path of Pain, cleared Dark Souls, and beaten the Blood Moon mode!
No matter how difficult it is, it’s probably just like this.
It's all about dancing, how can you, Qinglan, have a hard time on the road of pain?
Erxiao is undoubtedly one of them.
"Brothers, please be reasonable. I admit that I spoke a bit loudly and harshly during the last Resident Evil episode.
But didn’t I successfully pass the level in the end?
I have followed my original intention for so many years. The only time I downloaded it was the Dark Dungeon. Didn’t we also successfully clear the Mingyao difficulty in the midnight game?
It's not a big problem, okay, this game, no matter how difficult it is, I won't back down. ”
start!
The 3D Celeste Mountain rotated rapidly, and soon it was aimed at a small house at the foot of the mountain, and the prologue of the game began.
[That’s it, Madeleine]
[Just Breathe]
[Why are you so nervous? ]
It has a very exquisite pixel style. I believe that every player who can accept Terraria will not find the blue screen ugly.
"Although I have already complained about it in the PV, I still want to complain about it again. Madeleine is really fat."
"This is a snowy mountain. With such a thick down jacket, it would be weird if you weren't fat. I don't care! Madeleine is so cute!"
"The wind is so strong at the foot of the mountain."
Snowflakes are constantly falling in the sky.
As a former immortal, Erxiao would certainly not move forward foolishly.
Always try to see if you can go behind you.
Sure enough, as the scroll scroll moved, a car appeared on the screen.
Did Madeleine drive this car?
No one knew, but Erxiao also controlled Madeleine to jump hard on the car twice.
Still going to the left, there is no way.
In terms of operation, there's not much to say.
It’s the very classic jumping system from Super Mario.
The height of the jump is affected by how long your finger stays on the jump button.
On the first page of the prologue, when Madeleine passed by the central platform, a piece of snow-white rock above her head instantly became loose.
But such an obvious movement obviously couldn't be hidden from Erxiao, a senior game player. He successfully escaped with just a simple jump.
But because he didn't control the landing point, he landed in the gap between the platforms.
With the special effect of six red scattered light points, Madeleine completed a death.
But before the audience in the live broadcast room could react, Madeleine had already completed a rebirth at the birth point of this map.
The whole process happened incredibly quickly.
"Is there no death penalty?"
"Can you resurrect immediately after death? Then this game is a bit simple."
"Indeed, judging from this, this game is a bit too simple."
As players who have experienced White House Jump and many jumping levels in Ori before, they should have a say in this.
Whether it's the original Mario or the current Olympic-like games.
This type of game basically sets a limit for jumping, blood volume or number of lives.
The game ends immediately when Mario dies.
If Ori consumes all his health points, he will need to start over from the save point.
And Hollow Knight will drop a mask every time he makes a mistake.
This also makes the hive blood, a talisman that can automatically restore masks, very popular among the White House.
Weilan's thinking is obviously different from the above games.
Everyone doesn’t see any restrictions, it’s like the game developers tell you.
This game can be played casually, trial and error, and practiced.
When you die, you are resurrected without even realizing it.
Interesting.
Erxiao also had this understanding, but she knew very well that Mr. Luo himself had a very bad character when it came to games.
Making players suffer is what this guy likes to see most.
"Could it be that... no matter where you die in the future, you will be resurrected here?"
Erxiao speculated. But as soon as this speculation came out, it was instantly rejected by the barrage.
"It's impossible. Mr. Luo will definitely not be able to do this kind of mechanism that clearly discourages players."
Yes, no matter how malicious the design is, it must make players feel happy during the game.
Difficult, you say? Isn’t it fun to shake M?
This is not the same thing as being a disgusting player.
So, with the question of what is so difficult about this game, Erxiao continued to move forward.
After passing through the first map, Madeleine encountered a blue bird, which suggested that she could use the RT of the controller to perform climbing actions.
There is still no difficulty here.
But it can be clearly seen that when Madeleine clings to the wall, she will change from relaxed at the beginning to sweating profusely at the end.
When the body starts to turn red, it means Madeleine can no longer hold on and will fall from the wall.
"It's very reasonable not to have unlimited grabs on the wall. Call out Ori and criticize him! (Music)"
"Ori has a magical background, what's wrong with climbing a wall if he has supernatural powers?"
"Although the energy value is not displayed, there is an obvious all-red special effect before the energy value is exhausted. The operation of this game is also a bit too friendly."
Madeleine also continued to the right, and soon a small wooden house appeared in front of her eyes.
The top of the cabin was covered with a layer of snow, and the street lamp that illuminated Madeleine's journey stopped abruptly here.
An old man wearing green clothes and white hair stood at the door of the room, leaning on a cane.
However, the most eye-catching thing is the old man's marshmallow-like hair, which looks full of joy.
Madeleine: "Madam, please excuse me. The sign in front is damaged. Is this a mountain road?"
Madam: "We're almost there, just cross this bridge."
The lady's photo looks like she is quite old, and her lips are concave and a bit pointed.
Madeleine was about to pass by, but when she passed Madam, she turned back and reminded:
"By the way, you should call and have someone come look at your driveway, the ridge collapsed and I almost died."
But at this moment, the extremely magical "HA~HA~HA~" kept coming out of Madam's mouth.
The picture of the lady in the photo is laughing heartily, revealing her mouth with empty front teeth.
"If my driveway nearly killed you, then this mountain is probably too difficult for you."
Madeline raised her mouth cutely, and her little eyes looked particularly happy.
"If an old man like you can survive there, I think I'll be fine."
"It's up to you.
But you know, Celeste Mountain is a weird place and you might see something.
Something that makes you feel incredible. Miss, you should seek help. ”
Madeleine could only respond with a speechless expression.
"HA~HA~HA~HA~"
The two quickly ended the conversation about whether the driveway should be repaired.
But the old man's appearance still made many players find it very interesting.
"I feel like this lady is a hidden boss."
"Does this need to be felt? It must be!
But to be fair, isn't Luo always mocking us? ”
"Huh?"
"'If my driveway nearly killed you, then this mountain might be too difficult for you.'
Isn't this sentence a naked provocation? ”
"I want to see how difficult this game is, Erxiao GKD.
The core of an action platformer game is the level structure, and I can't wait to see how difficult this game is. ”
Difficulty can also be regarded as a selling point of a game, which can attract a considerable number of players who like to challenge themselves.
Of course, difficulty must be well integrated with gameplay.
It's difficult for the sake of difficulty. Players obviously won't buy it.
But everyone is looking forward to Mr. Luo’s game!
Go past the lady and come to the map on the right. The magical "HAHAHA" can even penetrate the screen.
Everyone recalled the madam’s smile without front teeth just now, which also made the players couldn’t help but curl up their lips.
Farewell to my wife, what comes into view is a bridge made of countless stones spliced together.
Madeleine ran on it first, but soon after, the bridge began to collapse.
"This bridge is going to collapse! Run!"
Erxiao, who was running and jumping to speed up, soon realized that the speed of the bridge collapse could not keep up with Madeleine's running speed.
But at the end of the bridge, it began to collapse prematurely.
Erxiao suddenly stopped, but at this moment, the collapse of the bridge behind him also followed.
Without any surprise, Madeleine fell into the abyss again.
"Something's wrong, brothers, how are you going to live here?"
The expression on Erxiao's face was a bit awkward.
"Are you not fast enough? Try again?"
"You have definitely finished jumping just now. You have to wait until the front starts to collapse before you take off, and then jump again the moment you land. That's it."
"No, there was definitely not enough time to jump directly there. I, a veteran Mario player for decades, will not be mistaken."
Netizens argued fiercely.
Er Xiao himself also clearly realized that there was definitely not enough time there just now.
However, the death cost of Azure is really pitiful. After death, you will be resurrected directly at the beginning of this map. You will know if you try it?
Still in the same place, Erxiao used up enough strength to run and jump all the way to the end of the bridge.
This time, everyone finally saw clearly that jumping to the end where Erxiao was standing was definitely not enough!
Madeleine, who stood there not knowing what to do, died again.
"I just said it, it's definitely not enough. Now everyone can see clearly."
But even under such circumstances, there are still people who are arrogant.
"You just jump, otherwise how would you get through here? Erxiao, you are probably too slow. I feel like this is a very extreme map."
"Extreme picture, right? I understand, don't you, mother."
"Brother Jie is already in ruins, so why bother with this nonsense?"
There was no way to pass the level anyway, so Erxiao also had the mentality of giving it a try. Looking at the obviously collapsed bridge in front of her, Madeleine jumped deep!
Madeleine finally missed the other side of the bridge and fell into the abyss.
But at this moment, time suddenly froze here, and Madeleine's figure stagnated in mid-air.
The blue-feathered bird flying from a distance gave Madeleine a revelation.
[Hold ""+"X" to dash. ]
As Er Xiao pressed these two buttons on the handle, Madeleine's hair instantly turned blue, and her whole body thrust upward a little.
But when she landed, her hair instantly turned red again.
Madeleine held her knees up and gasped.
At this time, the picture flew towards the sky at an extremely fast speed, in the dark night.
[You can do it]
Shine!
