• 游戏策划:为什么我的儿子不沉迷游戏?

    今天是高考第一天,越来越多的家长问我孩子网瘾的问题。

    我作为一名从业多年的资深游戏策划,首先得说个现实,商业化的网络游戏,无不是为让玩家沉迷所设计的。

    为了让玩家沉迷,我们做的功课比各位父母要深入的多,这根本不是一个维度的对抗,所以无奈是大多数父母的感受。

    我们非常清楚你的儿子想要什么,愿意付出什么,以及什么是他喜欢的。百万玩家的数据和调研在我们的数据平台上随时可查,我们的每一个改动都和数据有关,我相信我比你更了解你的儿子的喜好。

    作为一个游戏策划,这是我的工作,但作为一个家长,我儿子也读小学了,但他却没有对游戏成瘾。

    说句不好听的,引导玩家和教育儿子没有本质的区别,而在引导玩家这件事上,我经验丰富。

  • 体验Angry Birds网页版

    废话不说,直接先上视频:

     

     

    想玩Rovio开发的Chrome主题关卡?——先在前面的关卡里面收集Chrome图标(其实就是把金蛋换成了Chrome图标啦)吧!收集一个开启一关,囧。

    感想:怎么都觉得这更像是一个概念性的产品,因为游戏在浏览器上运行的效率始终还是不高,即使保持在50fps,流畅程度和用户体验都比PC版差多了……

    结论:在PC上想玩小鸟,还是下载个PC版的吧~

  • 刺猬大作战年底更新0.9.15版本

    12月28日,一个多月之后刺猬大作战再次发布新版本。粗略翻译大概有以下更新:

    • 新主题:圣诞
    • 新武器2个:钻头空袭、Mudball
    • 新游戏模式:夺旗模式(?)、无跳跃模式、随机武器模式
    • 可以自己“画”地图
    • 别的自己看吧

    下为官方更新说明:

     Frozen hog!    Winter has never looked this cool

    • There’s a new theme to chill in: Christmas!
    • Let it snow! Watch the ground on maps using the Christmas and Snow themes, because the falling snow may change it to your advantage or disadvantage.

    Deagle! New weapons

    • Are your enemies busy digging for oh-so-tasty earthworms instead of facing combat? Time to send a Drill Strike after them!
    • You want to push somebody from distance? Weapons are too expensive for you? You like to play in dirt or snow? A Mud Ball* should do the trick! (*wind effected; not recommended to be used as food replacement)

        Yellow Cap!    Optional Gameplay modes

    • Capture the Flag! Bring your enemy’s flag to your home while protecting your own!
    • No Jumping! The temporary loss of floor contact makes you feel insecure? Then play without jumping and see new strategies evolve!
    • Random Weapon! You want to test your luck and skill? Then let the game give you and your enemies a random weapon each turn!

        Shocking    Draw your own maps

    • YES, you read that right! Now you can create and save your own hand-drawn maps and play them on any theme you want and with who you want! Note: Please do not use maps with motives not suitable for children on the official server, thanks!

        Ushanka!    Missions and new Mission Map

    • Prove yourself worthy by mastering the missions Dangerous ducklings, Diver, Spooky Tree and Teamwork!
    • Fight your friends or foes on the new Capture The Flag: Blizzard map!

    GeekNew Game Modifiers

    • Disable Wind if you prefer a nice calm over having your stuff blown away.
    • More Wind will do the exact opposite and will make wind affect more things than usual!
    • Rope Length set the rope length anywhere from 25% up to 10x the default length. Just keep in mind: longer is not always better.

        Health Pickup    And there is more!

    • New hats beaver, porkey and sheep.
    • Improved Interface Lets you access and modify your game settings more easily.
    • Have your hogs speak! (chat bubbles) Even if it’s not your turn! Just type your chat message in “quotes”. (First digit in text will decide which one of your hogs will speak)
    • ReadyTimer Gives you a few seconds to swap places in hotseat matches or just to realize it’s YOUR turn without already losing precious turn-time.
    • More and prettier effects Because we all love them!
    • Improved Lua Support All power to the scripters!
    • Seed modification Gives you the possibility to play a game with different or exact the same “random” placements and events as before.
    • Check out the ChangeLog if you want to see a more complete list of the changes.

  • 刺猬大作战0.9.14.1终于发布 附新武器演示

    原文:http://hedgewars.org/node/2573  

    在半年多后,Hedgewars(刺猬大作战/刺猬杀)终于更新到了0.9.14版本,新增大量武器、主题,下为官方介绍。   

    ::Highlights::

    New devastating weapons!

    Show no mercy and let your hedgehog army fry, smash, poison and destroy your enemies like never before!
    Not only will the Flamethrower, Hammer, Sticky Mines and Old Limburger take your sadism to a new level, they will also let you forge new strategies for giving your challenger a hard time.  

    And if you are willing to sacrifice a hog for a good cause then you’ll truly enjoy to wreak havoc behind enemy lines using the Piano Strike!  

    New powerful utilities!

    You are lazy AND smart? You’ll love the Portal Gun! Move yourself, hogs and things from A to B etc. and back! Be daring, be creative, be nasty! 😀
    Also don’t mourn your fallen hogs too much, because now you get a chance to bring them back to life using the Resurrector! Take care not to revive hogs that you want to stay dead though!  

    New Maps and Themes

    Nowhere to run to, no place to hide!
    Fight your enemies in the jungle, at construction sites, on stage and even in the minds of artists!  

    Improved interface and Lobby

    We don’t only want you to have fun during the game, but also on the way getting there!
    The new lobby should now do a better job of helping you to find the game you’re looking for!  

    Improved Lua Scripting Support

    New chances to have your visions become brutal reality and fun for the community!  

    And there is more!

    Prettier fire and effects!
    Projectiles being fired from the weapons’ actual barrels!
    More hats and new Forts!
    Better stats!
    Tweaked weapon and utility behaviours!  

    Still not enough?!

    Then go check out to http://code.google.com/p/hedgewars/source/browse/ChangeLog.txt to see a more complete list of the additions and changes!  

    Well, that’s about it, have fun kicking some serious butt guys!  

    Known issues:  

    Especially the development of the portal gun has proven tricky, so be prepared for (hopefully) funny glitches 😛  

    Those will be hopefully removed in 0.9.15, which I promise* won’t be such a long wait again!
    If you find an issue that’s not listed on http://code.google.com/p/hedgewars/issues/list , please submit it there!
      

     

    经试玩,新增的道具/武器分别为毒奶酪[每回合减5hp(worms的臭鼬)]、大锤[直接扣1/3hp(worms的斧头)]、固定地雷(可发射的地雷但攻击力不高)、火焰喷射器(不用介绍了)、移动传送器(任意门)、地雷空袭、正弦能量炮(这个猛,有创意)、Resurrector(用自身的hp复活一定范围内的己方坟墓)和飞来的钢琴(worms的donkey)。

    我录的新武器演示:

  • 《极品飞车:世界》10月28日新增3个地区+25赛事

    官方博客原文:

    We are very excited to announce three new regions and 25 new race events will be added to Need for Speed World tonight! You’ll now be able to race through classic Need for Speed territory revisiting Rockport, Fortuna and Kempton. For those of you who’ve driven these streets before we can guarantee you’ll never have seen the cities looking as good as they do now. The World team have spent months going through the maps and tuning every element of the cities to bring a whole new level of detail to the game.

    As well as the new regions we’ve included 25 new races spread across great new Sprint and Circuit events. New leaderboards will be available so you can show off your skills to the whole racing World.

    This is just the first in a series of very cool updates we’ve got planned for World so stayed tuned and we’ll see you on the streets.

    新增的3个地区为Rockport, Fortuna 和 Kempton。不多说,上图。

  • 【视频】《百战天虫:重装上阵》无聊一录

    最大的感受:游戏细节更加精细了,百战天虫还是2D的好啊~

    PS:渣技术,我自重

    —————————————-

    附游戏简介:

    8月5日,Team 17公布了《百战天虫》系列最新作《百战天虫:重装(Worms Reloaded)》的更多细节和游戏截图,并郑重宣布,本作将不再采用前几作的3D场景,而改为回归到经典的2D,高清的2D画面将带给老玩家全新的视觉享受。

    《百战天虫》系列其实从来都不需要3D,Team 17近年在制作了数款3D版的《百战天虫》后,终于意识到了这点,决心从《百战天虫:重装》开始回归到经典的2D。本作也是PC上这十年中首部2D版《百战天虫》。

    《百战天虫:重装》中将提供45种以上的武器,60个单人任务,还将附带关卡创作工具,并且还提供了一套个性化系统。图像方面,游戏将采用2D高清画面,效果如何我们可以从本次公布的截图中看到。

    游戏的研发总监Martyn Brown在介绍游戏时说道,“《百战天虫:重装》是制作小组回归到经典怀旧的一作。算起来,本作距离上一部2D系列作品已经有几乎10年的时差了。在《百战天虫:重装》中,我们除了回归到2D外,还将玩家们津津乐道的经典元素再次加入到了游戏中。另外,本作也是近年来我们公司首个自己负责发行的游戏。我们非常期待和玩家们一起不断的完善这个游戏。”

    根据官方公布的情报,《百战天虫:重装》PC版将于8月26日在正版下载平台Steam上发售。目前已经可以进行预订,预订了游戏的玩家可以提前24小时进入游戏,以及获得特殊道具。
