Game Development: Starting with Recreating the Anime Game Style

Chapter 249 Humanoids Can Also Be Descended from the Sky!?

With the arrival of the "new wife".

Lu Yicai snapped out of his daze after the exhilarating battle.

The girl who appears before the player is named "A-017". In the real world, she is the prototype of the advanced A-017 gun developed by the Soviet Union in 1969, which was equipped with new high-velocity 5.45x39mm ammunition.

In layman's terms, it was the prototype or test weapon of the AK-74.

Although there is very little information about this gun in reality, and it is even uncertain whether the prototype of the AK74 was actually called that, that doesn't matter.

But just like World of Tanks often creates its own "blueprints," the development team of Final Frontline still managed to "verify" it.

After all, in entertainment works such as games and anime, the prototype machine represents "rarity" and "power," which has basically become a generally accepted setting.

Chu Chen was no exception.

If you want to create a character's mystery and power, nothing attracts players more than the words "prototype gun".

Considering that there are already many "waifus" among players of "Final Front" now, the popularity of characters like the Type 95, M4, and WA2000 in the game is already quite exaggerated.

The goal is to give players a new "waifu" (wife/girlfriend), and also to make them struggle with choosing among these "waifus."
The design of this new character naturally needs to be carefully considered.

Clearly, putting the plot aside, just looking at the character art, Lu Yi's heart was already captivated the moment A17 appeared.

"It's you?"

In the game, the commander's voice unusually became somewhat excited.

The girl known as A-017 raised her head, her gaze passing over the AK-74 and RPK-16, landing directly on the commander. A ripple instantly appeared in her pure blue eyes.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

Her voice was soft, trembling slightly, and playful.

"Should I call you brother? Or commander?"

The entire storyline of the Final Frontline's origins officially begins after they meet A17.

The second half of the plot is mainly divided into two parts.

One story tells a tale from before the Omnic Crisis through the reunion of the Commander and A17.

Before the Omnic Crisis, Earth's technological level was already quite advanced.

Civilian dolls are everywhere, and as the commander, he naturally had dolls at home as well. At that time, the commander was only in junior high school, and it happened one afternoon.

The commander's father returned home with a girl.

"Hey, you brat, what are you daydreaming about?"

A slightly magnetic middle-aged male voice rang out, and a new animated clip appeared: a man dressed in casual clothes, but still with an upright posture, patted a boy on the back.

Lu Yi immediately realized that this was a flashback, and the perspective was that of the commander in his youth.

He saw "himself" wearing a slightly oversized junior high school uniform, carrying a schoolbag, standing in front of his familiar entryway, looking at the door with a bewildered expression.

There, besides his parents, stood a girl.

She wore a simple white dress, her long, silvery-white hair falling smoothly over her shoulders. Her blue eyes, filled with unease and nervousness, cautiously surveyed the unfamiliar surroundings and the boy before her.

Her features were so exquisite they seemed unreal, and her skin was fair and translucent, like the finest porcelain doll.

"Dad, who is she?"

The commander in his youth, his voice still carrying a childish tone.

Just as the boy's mother was about to speak, his father suddenly seemed to remember something. A mischievous smile appeared on his face. He cleared his throat and said in a deliberately serious tone, "It's a long story. She's your long-lost sister."

"what?!"

"Are you kidding me! I didn't have a sister."

"I'm not joking."

My father was talking nonsense with a straight face.

"If you don't believe me, ask your mother."

Even through the screen, Lu Yi wanted to complain. This dad was so unreliable. This excuse sounded like pure nonsense and could only fool a middle school student.

As expected, a commander is a commander after all.

Even though he was only a junior high school student, he still realized immediately that the girl was in human form.

The following scenes are everyday moments that flash by like a montage.

In the early morning, sunlight streamed through the gaps in the curtains. The girl had already placed her neatly ironed school uniform on the bedside table, quietly waiting for him to get up. On the dining table, there was always a steaming hot breakfast and a glass of warm milk.

When I came home from school and opened the door, I would always see her reading in the living room. When she heard the door open, she would immediately look up, her clear eyes reflecting his figure. Then she would get up and go to the kitchen to bring out the snacks she had prepared.

When he was hunched over his desk, racking his brains over exams, she would silently hand him a cup of hot tea; when he was curled up on the sofa playing video games until he was completely absorbed, she would quietly place a peeled apple beside him.

Three years have passed in the blink of an eye.

The scene shifts, and he has been admitted to a military academy, changed into the military uniform familiar to the player, and his appearance has changed from a junior high school student to a teenager, while the girl's appearance seems to have remained unchanged.

The next flash of light was already the outbreak of the Omnic Crisis.

The omnics' rebellion was extremely sudden.

Overnight, the world descended into chaos. The commander received orders to form a resistance organization on the spot. Amid the chaos, the father remained unusually calm.

He pulled the commander to the basement, opened a long-sealed weapons cabinet, and inside was an A-017.

“This gun was originally part of my collection, but now it’s time to put it to real use.”

The flashback abruptly ended, and the white light returned, pulling Lu Yi's thoughts back to the abandoned highway at the crash site.

This is the story of A17.

A very straightforward "childhood sweetheart" persona.

But players just love it, and they're totally into it. After watching the anime, Lu Yi immediately accepted that A17 was his new waifu!
There's also a classic scene here: when the commander saw A17, he instinctively called out "little sister."

Then, A17, who was just feeling touched, suddenly turned pale.

The ripples that had just appeared in those pure and beautiful eyes froze instantly, replaced by a fleeting look of grievance.

Even though she had called him "brother" on her own initiative, when she heard the commander call her "sister," her beautiful brows furrowed slightly, and her lips pressed into a stubborn straight line.

Seeing this, Lu Yi burst out laughing.

So classic!! Absolutely classic!! I don't want to just be a younger sister!!

This scene is so classic.

In the subsequent storyline, the game recounts some "less important" matters.
Oh, just a quick note, this isn't very important. It's not that the game's plot is unimportant, but rather that, in Lu Yi's opinion, after A17's appearance, everything except the scenes of him being affectionate with his new wife is not very important.

He just wants to see what happens when A17, this "sudden arrival," returns to base and competes with other girls for a "husband."
Wow, just thinking about it is so exciting! You know, A17's gun was given to her by her commander father!!
