My game is depressing worldwide.

The office door was closed.

"I was careless."

Several black lines appeared on Cheng Shuo's forehead.

He watches a lot of horror movies, so his tolerance for the horror genre has definitely increased.

However, games and movies are different.

Just like the pitch-black environment we see now, it's actually quite rare in movies, and even if it does appear, it's only for a short time.

Because movies are meant to be shown, and the content is all designed by the director.

If it's too dark, it will make the viewing experience very poor, and the audience will not be able to see what the picture is trying to express at all.

But games are different.

The game screen is a bit dark, but it doesn't look that bad.

After all, games require exploration and interaction.

Player behavior can be controlled through design, switching between light and dark.

From the player's perspective, they can control everything.

For example, right now.

It is true that you can see everything around you by controlling the camera, but the battery won't last long.

Without a camera, the dimly lit environment ahead would make people reluctant to go, subconsciously repelling them.

It has a kind of... mockumentary horror film style.

The immersion is so strong.

But considering the boast he had made, Cheng Shuo gritted his teeth and controlled his character to walk into the darkness ahead.

Fortunately, although this section of the road was dark, there were no scary parts designed for it.

Cheng Shuo also found the trick.

There's no need to keep the camera on all the time. Just turn it on every few steps, check the surroundings, determine the direction, and then turn it off.

There was only one road ahead, and Cheng Shuo quickly found his destination: a staircase leading downwards.

After achieving a milestone, he felt relieved but also somewhat disappointed.

"If it were me, I would have definitely jumped in and killed him on the way here."

Before long, Cheng Shuo arrived at the end of his journey.

A cellar.

If there had been a few scattered lights just now, you could have seen some of the surroundings.

Here, you really can't see anything.

Only by turning on the camera and looking through the blurry, noisy footage can you see a generator.

Upon approaching the vicinity, a text prompt immediately popped up.

Turn on both air pumps and the main switch to restart the generator.

At this point, Cheng Shuo vaguely sensed that something was wrong.

Was the original design intended to scare people here?

In what way will it scare people?

Jump face kill?

Thinking it over, he turned on his camera and walked into a room at the edge of the cellar.

There was a machine inside, the very air pump we were looking for.

He clicked start and then walked out of the room.

The truth is revealed in the next second.

boom! !

A loud banging on the door rang out, sounding particularly jarring in the otherwise quiet environment.

At the same time, a very soft background music started playing, like a harbinger of impending disaster.

Holy crap!

Cheng Shuo was startled, and the screen shook.

[Detected armor penetration value from Cheng Shuo +1]

He quickly looked at the door.

Despite the camera's poor image quality, a giant figure can be seen walking in.

You can't see the body, you can't see the face.

All that could be seen was a human-shaped black silhouette and two points of light shining from the eyes.

Cheng Shuo stopped instinctively, feeling his heart beat a little faster.

Even when controlling his character to crouch down and sneak, he couldn't help but shrink his head down a little.

They were terrified that if they didn't duck down, the monster would discover them.

Don't come any closer...

Cheng Shuo prayed repeatedly in his heart.

My heart started racing, and a chill ran down my spine.

"Damn it, this monster probably isn't leaving."

Cheng Shuo took a deep breath and, braving the darkness and discomfort, slowly moved along the edge of the cellar, afraid that any sudden movement would startle the monster.

This constant feeling of insecurity and anxiety surrounds me, and the pressure is inexplicably immense.

Finally, after moving around for an unknown amount of time, he found the second room where the air pump was located.

Cheng Shuo quickly hid inside and turned back to close the door.

Almost simultaneously, the very soft background music stopped.

"Phew..." Cheng Shuo let out a long breath. "This weird game keeps giving the impression that it's going to scare people, but nothing's happened... Isn't this just messing with people?"

He grumbled as he turned on the second air pump, then planned to find the last main switch and leave this awful place.

But just as he opened the door...

A deformed, one-eyed, weapon-wielding oddball stood at the door.

Upon seeing Cheng Shuo, the strange man swung his weapon down without hesitation.

The ominous background music started playing again.

"Ahhhhhhh!!!! Holy crap!!!"

"Brother, I'm so sorry, I'll be leaving now!"

"Don't chase me!!!"

[Detected armor penetration value from Cheng Shuo +1]

Buzz, buzz...

The screen was surrounded by a faint blood-red color, accompanied by a sharp ringing in the ears, giving the illusion of being seriously injured and on the verge of death.

The addition of the ominous background music brought Cheng Shuo's fear to its peak in that instant.

However, although the terrain near the cellar was not particularly complex,

But it was too dark around us.

Cheng Shuo had absolutely no idea where he was!

All I know is to run around like a headless fly.

"Wait, a dead end?!"

Cheng Shuo was startled and quickly turned around.

But that ugly, deformed face was already close, and the weapon in its hand was about to be swung down.

"Holy shit!"

Snapped!

Cheng Shuo quickly pressed the ESC key.

The game has been paused.

Cheng Shuo felt like his heart was about to jump out of his chest.

He took a deep breath and then slowly exhaled.

Just then, there was a knock on the office door.

A voice came from outside: "Manager Cheng, I heard you calling? Are you alright?"

Depend on.

That's embarrassing.

Cheng Shuo blushed slightly, coughed lightly, and said, "It's nothing, go ahead and get busy. I... I was watching a movie, that wasn't my voice."

"A movie?" The voice outside sounded somewhat suspicious.

"Yes, it's a movie."

"Okay, manager, just call me if you need anything."

Cheng Xuan breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the footsteps outside fading into the distance.

With a gritted teeth.

continue!

"I already know what kind of trick you're playing, don't try to scare me again!"

Press the ESC key again to restart the game.

This time, having prepared himself mentally, Cheng Shuo was much calmer.

"Although you can't attack in this game, and the chase amplifies the fear... the unknown is the most terrifying thing."

"I've already seen the monster's face, so why should I be afraid of him?"

"So what if you catch me? You won't die from getting hit."

Although it was still being chased from behind, it no longer panicked and ran blindly, but instead observed its surroundings.

"I've never been here before, so I came in to take a look."

Enter a new room.

Cheng Shuo's eyes lit up; this time, he had not only discovered a new section of battery,

The switch is also here!

Press the switch immediately.

All that's left is to start the generator!

Hearing the commotion behind them, the monster immediately caught up.

"Calm down, calm down. This game told me from the beginning that hiding in the closet is safe."

Cheng Shuo quickly looked around.

Sure enough, we found something!

There are cabinets, and a whole row of them!

Cheng Shuo immediately hid inside.

"call......"

I breathed a sigh of relief.

Cheng Shuo finally had a chance to pick up his water glass and take a sip.

"No wonder Director Cui speaks highly of him. He's so young, but he makes really good games."

"A demo with no beginning or end, yet it managed to scare me...that's something to be praised."

Using the camera's night vision function, the monster could be seen walking around the cabinet.

You can see the monster walk around the cabinet.

Click.

Open one.

Click.

again.

The sound of the cabinet being opened grew closer.

Cheng Shuo's expression froze. He quickly put the water glass back on the table and nervously gripped the mouse.
