Hello everyone, I'm Ocarina, the producer of the Monster Dreamland series, ah sorry! Monster Dreamland the series has not been officially exposed to the public, our current external game is "Bloody Flowers", the first part of the overall monster AVG series we want to do Monster Dreamland constructed. [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42704084/d765c8fac38cfd3d0e328647d48bd35652dba392.png[/img] Yes, this is a ...... giant pit that the three of us have been trying to dig. After being taught a lesson by our predecessors, our basic philosophy was that "no matter how grand a picture we want to paint, we have to get down to business and come up with a playable game", which was a blow and a shout for the team. The project and production process of these scattered in our various versions of the progress and chat records, now organized out of quite interesting, I will write a comprehensive production of these angles of handwriting, probably these aspects. Character: the character and interaction of the main and supporting characters Scenes: "A Tree" throughout the three eras Story: a simple main line with three eras of transition and another line constructed with reading items Puzzle: measurement of difficulty and length Engineering: how to build a version with the brothers around and far away during a special time Steam: the first time to build an account and access steam's SDK ...... ...... Basically, every pit stepped on, is based on our naïve thought, really digging a pit a moment of pleasure, fill the pit ...... The process of filling the pit is quite happy. First of all, back to the game. One of the team members has been writing various novels about the Meteorite Association since 2018, but as an extremely socially afraid person, he is not willing to come forward to talk about the story and the Association, so I'll say it for him. This is a series of stories "meteorite will bring strange energy, open the thin wall between reality and non-reality, but the meteorite as the seed of xxxxxxx can hatch what kind of monster, depends entirely on the human who embraces the meteorite". To feed the seeds of xxxxxxx with humanity, and the sight from the universe far away is watching everything. Although located in the highest gaze, able to cross time and space, the human will in this gaze seems to have no equivalent ability, and even can not be taken into account in the same numerical system, but, only the human will and choice, can fight with it, and change the fate originally written into time. The overall series is probably such a conception. But the novel will become another thing in the game, the game needs not only to watch, read, but to experience, to turn the rhythm of the text into the rhythm of walking, adventure, and puzzle solving in the game, which is something we have been grinding for a long time, until now still tirelessly explore. And in addition to solving puzzles, how to add more pieces about affection, gain and loss, and not so melodramatic, is also recently in the game script constantly polished point. A small disclosure about the script: if you pay attention to the collection and reading part of the game, you will read a completely different story from the main line from the reading items. Back to the team, we first met in the process of playing Hollow Knight, and also decided to make some games together because of our common love. At the beginning of making the game, we got some industry funding support. However, if you pay attention to the game industry, you should know that at the end of last year, a round of unlicensed winter began, and the funding was completely broken. However, there are not many of us on the team, and at the moment, Bone Nails Studio and my Cat can fully support us, so that we can adequately polish the project of this monster series and continue to add interesting parts. At present, the first AVG puzzle game of this series "Bloody Flowers” has landed on the steam store, welcome to add your wish list to support.
