Game development begins with destroying Girls' Frontline.

Page 23

Because it is well-made and only costs 6 yuan.

The player base is quite good.

However, since it's customizable...

Naturally, all sorts of monsters and demons were included.

Yellow hair is now a very normal occurrence.

"Okay, okay, let's get started."

"Open, open, open."

With several players clicking confirm, the game entered online battle.

As mentioned before.

The battlefield in "Girls' Frontline" is a 4x4 grid.

There are 4 seats in the front row, and a maximum of 8 characters can be placed there.

However, in online battles, this grid is divided into 4x8, meaning the front row has become 8 positions, and each grid has become much smaller.

The perspective has also shifted from a 2.5D top-down view to a slightly lower angle.

In normal mode, the background image occupies about one-third of the screen, but in this mode, it only occupies one-fifth.

More space has been allocated to make it easier for players to operate the game.

The character illustrations have also been reduced in size.

Each player can control two rows in this mode, which is a 2x8 space, and can have up to 4 characters.

Apart from that, the combat style hasn't changed much.

"Hey! Did you guys notice? This character illustration isn't scaled down proportionally; it's changed to a completely different style."

"really."

"Wow, developers always pay great attention to these details."

"I feel that characters with this proportion are cuter."

"Yes...that's true."

The battlefield characters in Girls' Frontline are different from those in Girls' Frontline.

Because Linli did not adopt the expansion mode of Girls' Frontline, the proportions used in the character illustrations are the same as those in the later "Return to 1999".

Overall, it still leans towards the style of character illustrations.

However, if we use the same ratio in this online match, it will make the entire battlefield chaotic.

It's also very inconvenient for players to operate.

Therefore, the entire production team streamlined the existing chibi figures and redrawn a new set of combat chibi figures, whose proportions are closer to those of Girls' Frontline.

Although many details have been lost, it is now easier to operate.

"Old Wang, use your skill!! Heal me!"

"It's milked, it's milked."

"Hey hey hey!! Who dragged V-jie to the front row? V-jie's skin is so thin, it can't take it. No wonder I can't heal her."

"Boss Zhou! Don't just focus on dealing damage with your G35, heal the front line too!"

"Brother Li! Use your level 92 buff skill, or your ultimate! I haven't seen you use your ultimate once since the beginning."

"Don't rush, don't rush, it'll open soon, it'll open soon."

The online mode is more interesting than expected, and this is not just Zhou Shenlin's opinion, but the opinion of everyone in the dormitory.

Although it was the first time for the four of them to play, they felt a bit flustered and disorganized while playing.

But even though it's a side-scrolling game, it somehow gives you the feeling of raiding in World of Warcraft.

Because humanoid skills can cover teammates, things that one person could do alone now require communication and coordination.

At the same time, because there are many human-shaped figures.

The firepower coverage and the scene were also much more spectacular.

Watching the monsters constantly emerging from the mist, and watching the monsters he kept killing.

Hey, you know what, it's actually pretty cool.

The only problem is that this is a story mode.

It's clear that the producers deliberately lowered the difficulty level.

Aside from being a bit flustered at the beginning due to unfamiliarity, and finding it somewhat difficult when fighting bosses.

Overall, it's quite simple.

It took about ten minutes to complete this part of the online story.

After completing the game, the system displayed a message: "[Multiplayer function enabled] [Multiplayer dungeon available]".

Then we returned to the storyline.

A detailed cutscene begins.

The first half of the animation features a cool scene of countless humanoid girls attacking with guns in the fog.

The artwork in this section is a pleasant surprise.

In particular, she captured the cool and stylish feeling of several of the human figures.

With a distant explosion, the scene then shifts to 95, the leading lady of "Girls' Frontline".

95 raised his hand, signaling the humanoid figure behind him to be on guard.

"Did you hear that? What was that sound?"

"Whatever the sound, if the commander tells us to move forward, we will move forward."

97's voice was playful. After speaking, she was about to continue forward, but 95 stopped her.

"Wait, let's contact the commander and confirm the orders. I feel like everything is going too smoothly."

"Yeah, that's okay."

Chapter Thirty-Two: Applying to Go to War

Following a cool animation of a humanoid squad in action.

The rousing music began to build to tension.

Just at this time.

A muffled explosion rang out again in the distance, and this time, along with the sound, a gust of wind swept in from in front of the humanoid squad.

The human figures in the wind looked extremely disheveled.

The camera tilts upwards.

Looking down from above, a strange, large machine appeared in the center of the space elevator. This machine looked like a rammed earth machine, with a huge pump on top and a base below.

With each impact, a huge amount of air is expelled, creating a strong wind that spreads in all directions.

As the strong winds spread, the fog around the base was rapidly dissipating.

The smoke, like a thin veil, was gently lifted by an invisible hand, revealing the entire space elevator base.

Sunlight filtered through the gaps in the mist, casting a golden glow over the entire base.

As the fog gradually dissipated, the outline of the base became clearer and clearer.

This scene is beautiful, but also dangerous.

At this point, the entire battlefield is now visible to the players.

The outer wall of the space elevator has been destroyed, and countless humanoid figures had already entered the base through the mist.

According to the original plan, as long as the special shielding fog exists, the intelligence of machines will be affected to some extent.

The female androids can then use this advantage to launch an attack, penetrating deep into the base like a snake hidden in the grass, gradually clearing out the androids within the space base and finding the base's android core.

This would throw the entire base into chaos.

But now..

The fog dissipates.

The situation is starting to turn bad.

Perhaps worried that players wouldn't understand the current situation, the development team repeatedly focused the camera on several humanoid figures.

"The fog has lifted! The omnics' counterattack is imminent! Take cover!!"

"4 o'clock! Speed up and get into the bunker. Springfield, take over the tower at 9 o'clock. HK416, throw smoke grenades and prepare to cover."

"Got it, watch me!"

"Okay, Captain!"

Springfield, the team's sniper, charged toward the tower.

HK416 also pulled out a smoke grenade and threw it outside the building at the 4 o'clock direction.

"Captain!! Enemy at 12 o'clock!!"

The Type 97 tank at the forefront of the formation has discovered new intelligence.

"Don't panic, proceed according to the original plan."

As the humanoids engaged in tense conversation, players gradually sensed that something was amiss, and then, the camera zoomed out again.

A team of omnic snipers appeared on the upper floors of the space elevator.

As the camera zooms in, more details appear before the player: a group of enemies with electrical wires attached, wielding high-energy electromagnetic sniper rifles.

As the enemy sniper, glowing red, pulled the trigger.

Screen switching.

At the Earth Federation Command Center, in the center of the large screen, a blue dot flashed briefly before dimming, and next to the screen, the corresponding humanoid name on the blue dot also dimmed.

At first, it was just a blue dot, but it only lasted for a second or two.

The blue dots on the big screen began to disappear rapidly.

The corresponding humanoid names also began to turn gray one by one.

“We’ve fallen into a trap!!!”

"Damn it, we were so close, we almost made it in!"

"Report battle damage"

"The casualty rate has reached 31%!! 32%! And it's still rising!!!"

"What should we do now?"

"Do you want to retreat?"

"We have no choice but to retreat! The humanoids can't hold out any longer, and the front line is about to collapse."

The entire command center was thrown into a state of panic by this sudden turn of events.

Humanoids are the strongest fighting force of all mankind.
