Game Design: Who Rated the Games as Very Easy?
Chapter 64: The Shackles of Self and the Abyss of the Heart

Chapter 64: The Shackles of Self and the Abyss of the Heart

Any player who saw hundreds of deaths in any game would be depressed and leave the game helplessly.

But in the blue, death was not death. It became a simple process.

Here, you are not a person who repeatedly fails.

When crossing the river by feeling the stones, everyone could go in the wrong direction, but as long as they did not stay in the wrong place forever, every step was meaningful.

In the game, if one died, the background music would not be rewound.

Players joked,’This is the first time I’ve felt Old Thief’s gentleness. This is also the first game where I can die happily and start again happily.’

This time, the trial and error method of death was extremely gentle.

At the end of each level, when they saw the number of deaths, they couldn’t help but laugh and play happily.

If the first level still made people want to smash the keyboard, then by the sixth and seventh Chapters, the urge to smash the keyboard had quietly disappeared!

Before this, the players would never have imagined that in a platform jumping game, this completely independent level was just to tell a story.

In the starry night, Madelyne sat by the bonfire. She thought that the cruel, delusional, and controlling dark side was something she should and must let go of.

She felt that as long as this side of her left her forever, she would ’get better.’

However, the dark-eyed little girl with red eyes looked like Madeline was trying to abandon her!

This infuriated her. She would never accept abandonment!

The little girl on the dark side had grown big and scary, her purple hair almost suffocating Madeline.

At this time, the protagonist had already arrived at the temple at an altitude of 2500 meters. However, the dark side suddenly launched an attack and shot her down to the bottom of the valley.

At this moment, everything had to start from scratch.

From top to bottom, he saw almost all the scenery he had seen when climbing the mountain.

"F * ck! We have to start all over again!" Brother Yin slammed the table. Everyone was angry because the journey was tough.

The bullet screen was amused by this. It was indeed the familiar style of Old Thief.

" Upper limbs are weak, lower body is weak, operation is suffocating, and intelligence is touching. What’s the point of climbing a mountain with a colored pen?’

’Yes... It was a familiar smell, but it also seemed different.’

Cheer for the number of deaths!

..

Everyone was still laughing. When they completely landed at the bottom of the mountain, they realized that the map here was completely different from the beginning.

There was only a beautiful scene and a quiet background music.

Here, the protagonist began to think, began to face depression, and tried to reconcile with his dark side.

The protagonist began to understand that her decision to leave her dark side was abandoning her dark side. It turned out that ’she’ was also there...She was afraid.

The protagonist decided to have a chat with his dark side.

However,’she’ who had been abandoned once did not want to believe it at all. She was sensitive and fragile, and after experiencing abandonment once, she no longer trusted Madeline.

She warned Madeline not to come looking for her again, or she would suffer.

Here, the game’s background music had swept away the tension from before. There was almost no element of gathering things.

There were no strawberries for people to collect here.

This was another exciting part of the game!

If the first evolution of the game was the first chase, then this was the second chase.

However, this time, the target had been reset.

The previous chase was too painful, and the crazy shadow was still fresh in their minds.

But here, the protagonist became the pursuer. The dark side fled in front and tried to attack us to stop us from getting close.

What we need to do is to manipulate the protagonist, quickly press forward, rush towards her, and give her a hug!

Again and again.

The path of hugging her was full of thorns, but in this process, he did not treat her as a BOSS and choose to defeat her. He just hugged her.

This time, even if they were to die on the road to reunion, no one would complain or be troubled.

This was definitely the stage with the highest completion rate.

Perhaps some people would fall on the way to climb the mountain, but no one would fall on this stage. Those who walked here would strive to move forward in this emotional interaction.

Here, the players continued to tease each other as they died.

" Little girl, stop! Where are you running to?

’Every time I was knocked to death by that little black ball, those two circles of eyes would look at me with an innocent and frightened expression, as if they were disturbed by me...Damn it, I was the one who died!’

" Stop right there and let me wash your hair. Your hair is really oily!

" What is a hug? This is called sticking!

"Stick stick stick!"

[I’m super brave!]

’This Chapter is the only one that doesn’t give me a sense of defeat no matter how many times I die.’

..

At this moment, the players who downloaded the game also wanted to embrace their dark side.

Xie Lingjiang watched as everyone controlled the game characters and hugged them again and again. Every time she saw this Chapter, she felt like she was saved.

At the end of the road, the dark side with purple hair was squatting in a corner with his arms around his knees.

When the main character stood in front of her, she could only sigh helplessly.

- Okay, you win. I feel like you don’t need me.

If you want me to go away, I’ll try.

She tried her best to keep her red eyes open, not wanting her tears to flow.

The protagonist stood in front of her, feeling a little guilty.

- I don’t think so. I need your help now more than ever.

Please, let’s work together to get through this.

Madelyne smiled as if she was coaxing a child.

’Please, let’s get through this together!’

’You’ve killed me seven hundred times. How can you not come with me?’

’Little cutie! Quickly follow me! Stick stick!

..

Here, the protagonist and his dark side reached a compromise. They began to work together and began to climb the mountain again!

In the end, with the company of the other ’I’, Madelyne finally reached the top of Mount Celeste.

After experiencing countless deaths and reincarnations.

Cheer for the number of deaths!

Looking at the beautiful scenery at the top of the mountain, the players finally understood the meaning of that sentence.

The more you die, the more annoyed you are with the process, and the greater the joy of reaching the top.

After clicking on the blue comment section, Xie Lingjiang’s comments came into view.

[Mount Celeste. This is not just the name of the mountain. It is also the truest self. It is anxiety, depression... It was the shackles of oneself and the abyss of one’s heart.

That’s it, Madeline, keep breathing.

I can do it, that’s right. Whether it was climbing Mount Celeste or any other ’mountain’, the scenery was always at the highest point.

Thank you Black Star, thank you Germinal Organization, and thank you to all the players for bringing me such an exciting adventure.]
